His offices in London were enlarged twice and production in his ninny factories doubled Themselves annually. Much b their own. surprise, his brothers and sisters were draw- ing larger incomes than they had aver anticipated. True to his promise, Smithy had answered kitty's letters. He had done more. He actually showed up at her college graduation and stopped in for a dance or two at her debut. Since then, he'd squir- ed her about London and now they were fine friends indeed, with much more in common than he would have suspected. He often wondered• where it was all leading but refused to pursue it furterar in his thoughts. It was a sunny June day and he and Kitty sat at a luncheon table just overlooking the Thames. They had been chatting. Now Kitty spoke abruptly. She seemed really grown Ftp in that moment. "Charles, you know you've spoilt :me for other men." He was startled. "But my dear that's ridiculous." - She crushed out he.r cigarette. "Oh it's all right. Pll marry some nice young roan eventually and be quite happy." There was a shame- faced tear i;' her eye. "But it's no secret is it? That I've always been mad about you even as a school girl?" He didn't reply, She went on wistfully, "It might be fun if you loved ale naw. We're a lot alike you know. We laugh at the same things. I some- times wonder why you don't love me." * * * He was silent. Th':n he said slowly, "I haven't said I didn't." She gasped. He asked "Would it be so very incredible?" "It would be fantastic." He was smiling, "Oh Charles, .I don't believe you mean it, Charles, ISSUE No. 17-43 D BRITISH WOMEN STOP HEADACHE BEFORE IT STOPS THEM Today, there's alittle white tablet that's making alot of difference . . to women throughout the whole British Isles. A recent British Government survey showed up these facts;' that women, all over Britain, are counting on Aspirin tablets as one of the three most helpful drug items for Maintaining health and morale. Now that hundreds of thousands of women. areworking in war plants, doing men's' j obs in the factories, there's no time to "give in" to headache, neuritic, or neuralgic pain. So when distress first starts ... women reach into their pocket- books, and take the tablet they now they can trust. Aspirin has helped millions. It's quick effective, dependable .. . one of the safest analgesics known. So be sure youhave Aspirin. It costs less than 10 a tablet in the economy bottle. Aspirin is made in Canada and "Aspirin" is the trademark of The Bayer Company, Limited. If ou don' t seethe Bayer cross on abletiyou're not getting Aspirin, meantime.

She eould crash her . legal rights but that wouldn't give her back the Smithy who had loved her with such warmth and emotion on the day he had left. "Paula," Benet had :said, "I he - Bove that you're still in that lock- ed chamber of his mind, But your mere live presence won't 'unlock it. The impetus must be from within. It can't be forced on hini from the outside. All you can do is wait and hope." But now the hoping was over. He was going to be married and she must help snake it right. The next day she quietly 'en- gaged a lawyer and within sev- eral weeks she had obtained an annullment of her marriage from one John Smith, who, on a date some years back had disappeared and never been heard from since, * * Unaware of this little drama in his "secretary's" life, Smithy per-' mitted himself to dream and be happy with Kitty. Their wedding day was drawing close and ono afternoon Kitty asked him to come to the church with her for a rehearsal of the ceremony. The organist was playing softly as they went in. The song was, "Oh Perfect Love." Suddenly, madly, Smithy felt excitement course through his veins. Kitty. was looking at him. He• stared through her. That song. It seem- ed to be tearing him apart. Who was this' girl Kitty? There was no place for her in his life. A moment later he was aware that she was sitting in one of the pews, crying softly. He brought himself back to reality. "Kitty, what is it?" She shook her head. "It's no use Charles. I've known it from the beginning. You belong to • someone in the past. It's no use deceiving ourselves—" His voice was harsh. "I love you Kitty. You've promised to marry me. I want that. I need that." She held to his hand. "Charles, you don't realize it but just now you looked at me as if I were a stranger, an intrusive stranger trying to take the place of some- one else—someone you loved as you'll never love me. Never." She tried for a lighter tone. "It's all right Charles. I shan't go into a tragic mood. But it's: over. It: must be." He stared at her. "I'm bewil- dered, I don't know what to say." • Her voice was soft. "You don't have to say anything. I was near- ly the one but it didn't come off. Goodbye Charles — good luck." (The past has broken in on Smithy's present with dramatic import. How will his broken en- gagement affect Paula? Don't miss the next thrilling episode.) (Continued Next Week) don't tease ine. 'You do want ane —I'm not just a school ` girl to you—', He took her hand across the table. "Kitty yori're very sweet and dear to me. I'm building a great hope on you." Yes with marriage perhaps, all those sha- dows of a past he didn't remem- ber would vanish. There was a; She in that past, at least there seemed to be and yet never a trace of her real self appeared. Always this ghost haunted hint and now he must excise it for- ever. "Kitty I'll take a year off. We'll go on a long trip. I'll start a new life with you." She was still staring at him. "I don't believe any of it. I'll come to the office tomorrow and find you've forgotten all about it." He squeezed her hand. "'.Chen I'll have my secretary Miss Han- son remind me." She cried out, "Charles! It's too wonderful. Charles take me out of here. Take me somewhere and kiss me." Back in his office Smithy got down to work right away. He. okayed the, plans for taking over that new factory in Melbri4ge. The dear would be profitable. Moibridge. He frowned. Funny how the narne struck a familiar chord though he'd never been there. Let's see. Kitty had set an early wedding date. He'd better start checking on a number of things. He rang for his secretary. The door opened silently. For a long moment, Paula Ridgeway stood there watching Smithy! How she had searched for hien all those long early years after he had disappeared. She had re- turned to the County Asylum at Melbridge, enlisted the help of Doctor Benet who had known him.. Even after her young son had died, she had continued to search. But it had been useless. Then she had tried to put it from her, had taken a business course and obtained a job. And one day the miracle had come. She had seen Smithy's picture in a magazine with the caption, "Charles Rainier, Industrial Prince of England." She had been ready to fly to him but Doctor Benet had stopped her. He wouldn't know her. Ho would ac- cept her out of pity. She could never have the love he'd given her as Smithy, Her one chance was that some day the memory door to their years together would open for him, So with this hope to feed on she had finally ma- noeuvred a position with him as •l1 cr tar- For sev- eraltrusted -secretary. y years now, she bad been his valued right hand. As Smithy looked up he had no faint inkling that before hint stood the woman be had loved. Briskly he began to go' through the files with her. Then, on im- pulse he spoke, "Miss Hanson, you're the first to hear my news. You see, I'm being married." A conclusive tremor went over her and she paled slightly. -But her voice was even as she said, •"To Miss Kitty I suppose? She's —she's a very charming girl." He nodded. "I fully agree. - Well, I'll be taking n year off.

If tiny, say square, then authorities advise concentrating on those vegetables Which give the biggest yield per row. This means small, compact things like carrots, beets, lettuce, beans, spinach, onions, radish, ' possibly a few staked tomatoes. With the first items, even 12 feet of row, if given a little attention in the way of thinning, cultiva- tion, and perhaps watering and fertilizer, should produce many good meals for the fair-sized fa- mily. And as the rows can be spaced a mere foot apart, a small plot will grow a lot of crop. The staked tomatoes will take up snore room. They should be 18 inches apart in the row, but one plant should grow a big basket of tomatoes, and if all side shoots aro nipped off and the plant tied loosely to a six-foot stake it will ripen the fruit surprisingly early. It doesn't pay to grow bulky things like potatoes in the tiny • vegetable garden, and a winter's supply of carrots, onions, beets, etc., should not be attempted. Corn and peas take up a lot of room but because they are never so tasty as when taken right out of the garden at the back door, sometimes even city gardeners try to squeeze then in. Garden corn should be grown in bills about 15 to 18 inches apart. To supply the small fa- mily at least a dozen hills of corn are necessary, and from 40 to 60 feet of row of peas.

Moving a plant is something like an operation for a human being, and the larger the specimen the more necessary the attention. With shrubbery and trees, often main roots are cut and the shock is severe, Some pick-up in the way of quickly available commer- cial fertilizer will help at this time, merely a pinch for small things like tomato plants or asters, and perhaps up to a couple of handfuls for shrubs and trees. ,AMONG A HOST GE OTHER SONGS the bo* contains Rose of No Mans Land Where Do We Go From Herat The Star Spangled Banner 0, Canada( Ave Maria (Bach-Gounod) The Lost Chord My Task The Old Rugged Cross The Stranger of Galilee Sohn Peel La Cucaracha Santa Lucia (Here in the Twilight) Volga Boat Song When Love is Kind Horne on the Range The Band Played On Down by The 01d Mill Stream I Don't Want to Play In Your Yang I'm Always'Chasing Rainbows Ic-x=K-zesty Beautiful Heaven (Cll,lito Linde) Cradle Song e Dream of Love (Liebestraum) I Love You Truly I'll Sing Thee Songs of Araby JustShor sin' Brea For You Who Is Sylvia?

We are fortut.ate to- day in having a number of new processes of curing and smoking which acids a new zest to Ham and adds a new tenderness, juiciness and sweetness. The new processed hams really do not require the soaking before cooking, but if you wish soak one-half hour in cold water. Give your ham a long slow baking, allowing 25 minutes for each pound, Fifteen minutes be- fore serving remove the rind and spread with a coating of brown sugar (1 cup), 1 teaspoon of mustard and 3z teaspoon ginger.
