report that he had died, so she wouldn't
visit her spite on him. This may be
true, for Sir Kenelm charmed the
ladies, but other circumstances cast
doubt on the integrity of his story.
The truth is he loved to talk, and he
made his conversations all the more

If the trees acre bread and

fresh loaf of Rice's Bread all

But the grocer gets it oven-warm

ture to leave the loaf soft and
moist inside, but never soggy. It
gives . deep, golden crust which
is the most easily assimilated
part Of the bread. In it, as in
toast, the starches have been
changed to sugar. Quickly baked
bread will have thin, light-col-
ored crusts without these valu-
able changes that are in Rice's
slowly baked loaves.
Tests show that the split top
gives a better-rising and conse-
quently more. wholesome loaf
with a larger proportion Of the
crisp, sweet crusts.
The thorough, careful baking,
too, makes it possible to get those
thin, thin slices from Rice's. The
crumb is SO fine and close that
paper-thin slices stay firm and
whole instead Of breaking and
crumbling.

Sir Kenelm, Notwithstanding his
shifting conduct and unreliable CONVEX

favorite of Oliver Cromwell. He could
indeed, do many things that would
have been fatal to others.
A considerable part Of his fame came
from his marriage to Venetia Stanley.
the loveliest creature of her day, whose
beauty has been perpetuated in the can
vases Of Vandyke.
Lady Digby died at SO. The fanciful
widoWer attributed 1t to drinking viper
wine. But he was VIGOROUSLY jealous of
her because of her extreme beauty. and
1t was reported that he had poisoned
her. If so, he successfully concealed the
truth.
As O. soldier, Sir Kenelm's greatest
feat was to win the battle of Scande-
room Bay, q naval engagement, with a
combined French and Venetian squad
ron, in which he showed great per-
sonal proweSs.

Carefully regulated baking Is
just as necessary to good bread
as good ingredients are. When
bread baked at home doesn't turn
