plans to extend to the South his

HEALTH FOUND IN
FRUIT COCKTAIL
Simply made with these four
fruits-and sugar to taste

This simple fruit cocktail will
bring enjoyment and health to your
table: Sections of grapefruit, Of
orange, Of pineapple and bananas
with the addition of granulated or
powdered sugar to taste. The dis
solving of the sugar blends the
f1avors of the various fruits and
adds to them sweetness-nature's
perfect flavor.
One of the main purposes of cook
ery-one often lost sight of in these
days Of extreme diets--is to add
to the zest and enjoyment of foods.
And there is no other ingredient so
useful in making other healthful
foods gracious to the palate as
sugar. The good cook, by the judi
cious use of sugar, makes all kinds
Of fresh fruits, vegetables and
meats tasteful and delicious.
We spoke above of extreme diets.
More than that, they are dangerous
to health. Eminent medical authori-
ties are alarmed at the semi-starva-
ton reducing diets. Extreme reduc-
ing removes the protecting fat that
nature intends everybody should
have. 1t tends to destroy the protec-
ton against disease. 1t very often
causes permanent injuries to the
most delicate organs and tissues.
One of the first laws of health is
to eat enough. Diet sensibly. You
can't neglect eating and keep well.

But Madge was angry with
him, and though his arms soothed
her, she turned cool cheek to-
ward him. Pain lit his eyes. but
she did not see it. Then, as he
kissed her cheek instead Of her
lips for which he hungered, she
patted his shoulder and cried
with pretended gayety:
Don't flirt with every pretty
girl you meet, Michaeli'
But he had only been gone Is
minutes before Madge relented;
she could not let him go like this!
At least she must see him off.
She gave rapid orders for Col
lins and her own car. but it was
another 10 minutes before she
was ready to start.
Step on it, Collins" Madge or
dered, as she sank back against
the cushions Of the Iow-swung,
cream-and-silver touring car. "Mr.
Winchester has half an hour

to the Berengaria before she
sails. /"
'.I'l try, Ma'am." Collins called
back. But they've got the Mer-
cedes. and Mr.. Winchester likes TO
travel. But I'll get you to the
pier before he sails.
Collins was as good as his word.
He let Madge out OF the car q
full 25 minutes before the great
ship was due to sail.
Red tape threatened to impede
her progress. but Madge found
that the use OF her name-the
magic name Of Winchester-cut
this very effectively.
Presently she was on the little
stretch of reserved deck that led
to Michael's luxurious suite. She
heard his laughter. Then he was
not alone. Suddenly she felt shy.
She had done dramatic and
slightly theatrical thing. She
must see who was with Michael.
and she peeped through the open
door.

his wealth could not save him.
She felt vaguely hurt and dis

Madge grew sleepy.
