 The regular evening service of the Grace Methodist Church, last night was conducted by the Every Mans Bible class, of Waterville Carl Froelich, president was in charge and the speaker was John A. Coe, president of The American Brass Company, whose address was most interesting. MT.

One think clearly; two, love neighborS sincerely; three, have honest mo- tiveS; and four, trust God and heaven securely. Selfishness is one of the major sins. there never would have been the World War, without Selfishness, nor the conflicts which are existing between nations, at the present time, if there were love be- tween fellowmen.

1 ing hard, yet with a single steady purpose, was another person. Not the old Katie Blyn, not the heiress of all those millions. She was just herself, woman, without pre- tense, going after the man she loved, the man whose wife she was and always would be, forever and ever.
 Whether she would find him or not, whether she would have found him too late, that was still, as she had said, unanswered.
 She did not believe that Bret loved her any more. If he had loved her he could not have walked out of the room, out of her life. He could not have re- linquished all that he held to be right, allowing her to win.
 An empty victory. For with it she had lost all that counted in the world, the one person without whom she could not go on living.
 Would Bret give her another chance? Would he forgive, and understand, second time? Would love be big enough for this?

I've al- ways had everything, except the one thing I wanted, that I could not buy with all my millions. But now, Rodney, I've grown up, at last. Maybe too late. I'm not sure For the thing I want, that is
 -Gybe too late to try again. To stop pretending for all time.
 
 And so," she finished, and now she held out her hand to him, this is goodby, Rodney. I am sorry l could not love you. Sorry to have to hurt you second time. I shall think of you as my very good friend, always"
 You're going after Bret" Rod ney said It was not a question. He accepted her hand, held it be- tween his own, let it go, reluc- tantly.
 "Yes. If I can find him. If he'll give me another chance"
 He will. No man could refuse you. You're very beautiful, and desirable, Connie. And-no mat ter what you think, what you've said about yourself-you're very brave, too"

 He did not answer, except with his eyes, promising her anything within his power to give her. He stood, looking after her, as she turned, almost running, to go down the gangplank again, to the car that she had kept waiting.
 Before she got in, she turned once more and waved at him. A gallant little up-flung movement. Her head thrown back in that way he knew so well.
 Then she was gone. He knew he would not see her again. This time she would not come running back to him.
 "To Jersey. The airport" Con- nie said to the chauffeur Make it as quickly as you can; without get ting arrested for speeding, or run ming anyone down."

She knew she could trust Winton to keep her departure sec- ret.
 This was not another mad inn pulse. It was the result of those long hours since Bret had walked out of the drawing room of the brownstone mansion; hours through which Connie had lived what might have been an eternity. For during them, through her tears and re- morse, her pride and her shame, she had as she had told Rodney, grown up. The myth that had been Constance Corby was dead.

THE story of the importance of
L milk in the daily diet can never be
stressed too much. The abundant use
OF milk is one way in which a home
maker can save work and worry in
planning well-balanccd meals for her
family. Milk will cover multitude of
sins Of omissions in the dietary. The
importance of milk in the diet is due
to its ability to support growth, to re-
pair body tissue, to protect the BODY
against deficiency diseases" to sup
ply fuel and energy. Adults, as well as
children, need this important food and
it should be part Of each days diet.
The milk requirement need not all be
served as a beverage, but may be in
corporated in other foods.
Milk is one food that comes to your
home fresh every day by one of the
most efficient food distribution systems
OF modern times. Every bottle Of fresh
milk is one Of the most economical
foods obtainable. It's cost is low and
its return in food value is very hi-h.
"A tremendous industry has developed
since the first three cows were landed
in Virginia in 1909.
There are few rules on the care of
milk in the home that should be OBJ
served by everyone. Milk should be
kept clean, covered, and cool. Buy
milk in bottles, and as soon as il IS
delivered, place it in the coolest part
OF the refrigerator. Do not mix new
and old milk. Milk and butter absorb
odors readily-do not put them in
contact with food of strong odor. To
