SYNOPSIS

Perilla Fairfax and Corey Maiden
are to be married the next day at
Lowell Terrace, Long Island home or
John Lowell, her stepfather. Gath
cred are Tony Gaskell, best man,
lawyer; Hilda Sheldon, maid of hon.
or; and Pete Wilson and Bob Coles,
friends of Perilla's brother, ushers.
Corey is very wealthy. He is thirty
eight and Perilla twenty-four, but
1t is a true love match. Everybody
is busy, including Jane Latimer,
Mrs. Lovells pretty and efficient
social secretary. There is a dress
rehearsal and Malcolm and Bob are
sent to get the Tenney girls. When
the party is breaking up the night
before the wedding, Malcolm COM
plains of a headache. Tony produces
some white tablets and nearly every
one takes one, including Corey.
After the wedding Perilla tells her
mother that Bob had repeated his
threat that If she ever married any
one except him, he would kill her,
the bridegroom, or himself. In a
Baltimore hotel room Corey tells
Perilla, you won't like my mother.
She isn't lovable," then drops to the
floor dead as he holds her in his
arms. Alone, except for Boynton,
the chauffeur, and Sarah, her maid,
Perilla has Boynton telephone her
father to come by plane with Mall
colin. A physician says the death
resulted from natural causes. When
Perilla arrives at the Maiden home
she is greeted by Madame Maiden
with, you murdered him." That
night she enters Perilla's room by a
balcony window and Perilla has her
removed. When Malcolm arrives the
next day Madame Maiden processes
friendship after he threatens her
with the madhouse, but Farman,
Madame Malden's lawyer, does not
disguise his suspicious. Corey's will
leaves the greater part of his for
tune to Perilla. When she reaches
New York after the funeral, she is
in a state of collapse. Malcolm, ar
irving later, reports that people in
Richmond, Influenced by Madame
Malden's attitude, are gosSiping.
Perilla consults Fleming Stone, IA
nous detective. He tells her he
suspects one of the wedding guests,
and asks her to get samples of the
handwriting of the wedding guests,
and to invite some of Corey's friends
to her room.

Compass Points at North Pole

The points of tie compass north
south, east and west, relate to the
earth only. The North pole is the
point of convergeEce of all the
earth's meridians, and every point
on the earth's surface must be di-
rectly south of this point. Not

other, he said:

inquired.

are at the height of their season. ba-
nanas are plentiful. Until the fresh
peaches, apricots, plums, pears and
pineapple, or the berries and grapes
are in season again, there are canned
fruits of all kinds, and there are also
the dried fruits with their more con-
centrated food values.
Meats, Poultry, Eggs and Fish.
Muscle meats, whatever the kind
or cut, have about the same food
values. Liver, kidneys, and other or
gans of meat animals are still more
nutritious, and so are eggs and some
kinds of fish.
Bread and Cereals.
These mean flour, corn meal, rice,
macaroni, spaghetti, and various
breakfast cereals, as well as bread,
crackers, and other bakery goods.
1t is good thing to use some whole
grain cereals, to make the most Of
the food values of the grain.
Fats and Sugars.
Fats and sugars are grouped to-
gether because they are all concen-
trated energy foods. The fats in
clude not only butter, margarine,
lard, or vegetable shortcomings, but
salt pork and bacon. With sugars
are classed sirups and molasses, also
jellies, jams, and honey.
Accessories.
The main point of this food budget
is its variety at moderate cost. HUI
man beings require energy foods,
body building foods, and health-pro-
tective foods. and the diet pattern
suggested here supplies all these.

courteous, debonair Tony Gaskell
who said good-by.
Now, what's all this about, and
why do you think 1 want anything

Tony had left them.
"Well," said Bob, first, because
I can help you in some minor

"And what are your minor ways?"

Consider Nutrition and Bal
anced Diet in Making
Selections.

Getting full value for the money
expended for food, says the Bureau
of Home Economics of the United
States Department of Agriculture, is
not only matter of getting good
quality and full measure. 1t is very
definitely matter of selecting foods
for their nutritive value and the par
ticular contributions they make to a
balanced diet. The best way to do
this, the bureau suggests, is to draw
up a food budget. based on a diet,
balanced for nutritive values. and
then try to buy accordingly. Budget
making helps to keep within the fam
lily income, and also to guard the
family health by providing the neces
sary variety of foods for well-planned
meals.
A food budget, however, like any
other budget, is very much a family
affair suited to the family for which
it is made and probably no other.
The hOusekeeper must plan it ac-
cording to the makeup of her fam
lily, their habits, and their tastes. as
well as their income. Are there
children, and if so, how many and
how old? Do all members of the
family eat all their meals at home?
Do the children get hot lunches at
school? Are there many frequent
guests at the family table, and how
much other entertaining is done in
this home? And last, but by no
means least important, what likes
and dislikes must be allowed for?
Five Groups of Foods.
With due allowance for such points
as these, the housekeeper may find
it useful to apply the suggestion
of the Bureau of Home Economics
that she divide her food money in
five portions, and spend it for five
different groups of foods. For ex-
ample, if the family consists of two
adults and two children about eight
and ten years old, and the amount
Of food available is SO or S13
week, 1t would be well to divide the
food dollar like this:
Milk and cheese-one-fourth or
more
Vegetables and fruits-one-fourth
or more.
Meats, poultry, fish and eggs
about one-siXth.
Bread and cereals - about one
eighth.
Fats, sugar, and ccessories-about
one-siXth.
Within each of these five groups
of foods, there will be, of course,
a good many alternatives and in
some cases choices among food prod
ucts of similar food value. In other
cases selection must be wisely made
in order to be sure about food value.
But, for a balanced diet, none of the
groups may be omitted, and no group
is interchangeable with any other
group.
To consider the possibilities group
by group:
Milk and Cheese.
For those who do not drink milk
this important food may be used in
soups, sauces, puddings. or in the
form of cheese Evaporated and
dried milk are practically as nutri-
tious as fresh milk, and five ounces
of cheddar cheese is about equal to
quart of whole milk.
Vegetables.
Generally speaking, all the vege-
tables serve similar purposes in the
diet, but some of them, such as
onions and celery, are more impor-
tant for flavor than for food value.
Others have special values for which
they should be given a separate list
ing.
Fruits.
At this time of year, of course,
winter apples are at their best, or
anges and grapefruit and tangerines
