The Brussels Post, 1942-10-28, Page 2ItstW, WE'D LIKE TO TELL EVERYBODY ABORT ALL -BRADS 'BETTER MY" Says Mr. C. Boyer, Valleyfield, Quebec: "For many years we've enjoyed KELLOGG'S ALL -BRAN, the delicious cereal that keeps ua regular ... naturally. In muffins, ALL -BRAN is delicious . . we have them almost every day. And ALL -BRA is a grand cereal for breakfast." Why don't you try ALL -BRAN'S 'Better Way" to correct the cause if you are troubled by constipation due to lack of the right kind of 'bulk' in yotw diet? But remember, ALL -BRAN doesn't work like cathartics. It takes time. Eat it regularly and drink plenty of water. Get ALL -BRAN at your grocer's, in two convenient size packages, or ask for the individual serving package at restaurants.

She knew who got the $17,000, and knew who had it now! And it wasn't Red—or Strickland Bal- lard, which Hunter would have accepted as the same thing—who signed his bond so he could be re- leased, but Temple, president of the First National, So many questions popped up in Hunter's mind that he could only gulp and stammer. "You know who did get that money? I mean—" "I took it out." "Great guns!" Hunter Dent groaned. "What is this, anyway? You mean you were the one that opened the new safe, when I am the only one who knows the eom- bfnation, and removed that mon- ey? Red, was that you? How in the nation did you get the com- bination?" "Hunter Dent, do you mean to sit here and pretend that you EASY CROCHETED SET °7 CO,0., 0, NFFDLLCMrr Sea,,, I}1 It's such a quick, inexpensive crochet to make this set in Shet- land floss.

ISSUE 44--'42 A don't know I'm even alive. For years and years I have trotted after you like a puppy, I used to as a little girl let you put me on your horse, and you were al- most a father to me, I've been so much underfoot that now I'm a young lady I have grown ashamed and tried to stay away from you, though not very- suc- cessfully, "So, one day when you were trying to open the safe and couldn't remember the combina- tion, and took out your wallet and read it, and got down on your knees and said the combination aloud while you worked it, I was there in the door watching. You were so absorbed you didn't even notice me. "So I remembered your old combination just to out -smart you some time. Maybe I had in mind laying a bet and taking your last dollar. I don't remember. But when Junior came in that night after he had got mixed in the hold-up—you see, Hunter, all that was doped up while I was out for a ride with Oliver, and so I didn't know anything about it until too late; well, I followed those blood stains, I went up to your office, because Junior would make right straight for you. if he got into trou'b'le, I opened the safe, and there was the bag of money. With my own little hands I removed it. I'd got wind enough of what was going on to know the money had to be restored, * * * "I told you I know who has it now. Would you like to know?'" "Who?" Hunter asked, "The First National Bank, I took it there myself and turned it over to Mr, Temple. I asked him to see father, and the two of them worked out some way of going . on your bond and letting you out. I couldn't tell them much. I couldn't say to Dad that Junior was the hold-up man. I just turned the money back to the bank and told them to keep their mouths shut until we could see a Little further," Hunter could only repeat, "So you did that." "Yes, and I asked a man to marry me and he turned me down cold." "What are you talking about?" ".'I'm talking about coming to seeyou in jail and making a wager with you that you'd soon be free, and you would propose to me and I'd say yes, and we'd get married. I even laid my bet on the barrel - head and you wouldn't put up. You just sat there dumb, Well, if you don't want to marry me you don't have to." She assumed a lofty manner. "Red, you're plain crazy! You and Tisdale are engaged to be married. He's rich. He's in on the Ballard fortune. What's more logical than you two should mar- ry and keep the fortune intact? What ani I? A kind of glorified hired man for your dad, Why, even the colts I raise go to him, The strain of prolific corn I de- velop becomes his, What chance do I have?" * * * She turned to examine him. Her eyes traced his features, dropped to take in his big athletic shoul- ders and chest. "You're young GOOD EATING NEWS Sleight-of-hand won't produce meat when it's needed for the boys in the service, But a little kitchen magic will stretch a pound of sausage to nine servings.

You appear to have your original equipment of teeth, hair, and brains, I always admired your in- telligonee, Hunter." "Thanks," he said with dry bit. terness, "Did it ever occur to you that I might be a good sport after all, Hunter? I mean your being poor has never worried me. I read stories and see motion pictures where the poor boy refuses to marry the wealthy girl because it will give him an inferiority corn., plex; but I thought you might be above such petty things, Hunter. You've made yourself gone through the university mostly on your own, become a scientific re- search man, you've created things, such as that strain of corn. And you've only begun. Your whole life lies ahead of you. There is nothing to keep you from making a narrie for yourself that will be the envy of many men who only had wealth to start on—01 Tis. dale, for instance. I wouldn't be afraid to start from scratch with such a man as you, Hunter. I'm betting on you. You remind me in lots of ways of Dad. He met a challenge. They made him mad and he showed them. Well, now I've told you, 1 thought perhaps you loved me, Hunter." "God," he said, "I do love you!" "I wouldn't have you now on a silver platter." "Red, you drive me almost to murder!" "We still have one of those messy things to clear up," "So we have," Hunter said, "So we have. Look here, Red. Let me tell you how I have this doped up." He knit his brows, groping for words. "Let's start from the beginning. At one of the parties at your house Hank Temple let it drop that he had to get to the bank to see a shipment of money get out. Seventeen thousand dol- lars, It would have to be a private matter. Maybe only Hankins, his father, and the parties who were to get the money, knew about the business. Hank didn't mean, per- haps, to let it slip. But it was be- tween friends. All right. The gang is there, hears; and Hank has to go. They make their wagers. Suppose, just as a hypothesis, the Ghibarto twins make a wager no one there could intercept the mes- senger and take the roll off him. Or it could have been any one else present who bet. Junior, with a little too much under his belt es usual, took the bet up. The party broke. Hankins Temple dispatched the money by the mes- senger. • The time was not far from midnight. Why the money had to move at such an hour, and in such a way, is not easy to ex- plain unless you consider another thing or two. "Okay, let's consider them. There is that ordnance plant scan- dal which has just broken. The older Ghibarto is involved in fraud against the government, Rascal. And a man who in wartime pulls something like that is a rascal. Like father like twins. The money is a bribe. Ifnow about that wharf project which is just across the river from the old landing below Water Street? That is a part of this ordnance plant. Some one down there in the know.was getting ready to talk. Ghibarto —and this is hard talk but we have to look things in the eye— and perhaps Banker Temple, and just possibly your dad, who usu- ally has irons in all the civic fires, fingers in all the local pies, though I take it for granted neither man knowingly got caught with his pants down --had to get a bribe there to shut a mouth. Since it was secret it looked safe enough. The murdered messenger left the bank. He had to go on foot, part of the way in any case, because the street was closed down which he must hurry. "He goes along, Junior drives into town with the gang and strikes out after him, and yells 'Stick -'em up' in his best style. - Up to now it is all just a good joke. Good sports standing on their sportsmanship. "Bet the Ghibarto twins, rascals like their daddy, see a chance to pick up $17,000. Looks like a sure-fire set-up. The gang don't dare talk. Kill the rc ssenger and he can't talk. Might as well shoot Junior, too. Two men, nonde- script and dark, did appear, and the fireworks started. Well, those were the twins. Why they didn't leave town when the plan flopped —they didn't figure on Junior really shooting back to keep the joke from spreading, and toting his hot lead like a true sport—is explainable when you figure that Junior won't talk; he may yet die without talking. Besides, the guy that runs looks guilty, So--" Red, her face strange, let in the clutch, and started off with a scruff of rubber. Her jaw was suddenly grim and set.

TABLE TALKS SADIE 8, CHAMBERS 'Aids To Rationing I expect many of you are won- dering if it is advisable to have a Christmas cake this year. Maybe it is; if so, this recipe was handed to me, as one, which was used greatly in the last war and be- came very popular. Canada's War Cake 2 cupfuls brown sugar 2 tablespoons lard 1 package seeded raisins 1 teaspoon cinnamon 2 cups hot water 1 teaspoon salt 14 teaspoon cloves or ginger Boil all these ingredients to- gether for 5 minutes after they begin to bubble. When cold add: 8 cups flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda (dissolved in 1 teaspoon hot water). Bake in 2 loaves for 45 minutes in a slow oven. This cake is better at the end of the week or even longer. It ripens as does all fruit cake.

Cover with water in the saucepan and boil until ten- der, about 15 or 20 minutes. Drain; remove the akin from pep- pers and chop into fine pieces. Mix the dry ingredients thorough- ly (sifting is the best method); add the vinegar and the water and cook this mixture in a double boiler for 20 minutes, stirring quite frequently so that it will re- main smooth. Add the chopped red peppers to the mixture and cook for 10 minutes longer. Put in sterile glasses. To the sandwich filling maybe added grated cheese, nuts, etc. for variation.

Crown Brand Syrup in addition to its other uses, is being so generally used to supplement sugar, that the demand has increased tremendously ,-- so that sometimes your grocer may not be able to supply you. But you'll understand why. A great deal more "Crown Brand" is being produced this year but it cannot be expected to meet a demand resulting from a war shortage of millions of pounds of sugar, The supply of Crown Brand Syrup, like other things, must be shared. non't hoard —buy normally. With the help of your grocer, every effort is being made to keep you supplied with this delicious syrup. IMITED;; MONTREAL"- TORONTO Cut lemons in quarters and add them.
