Eat KELLOGG'S ALL -BRIAN every day, as a cereal or in several hot muffins — and drink plenty of water. ALL -BRAN helps to produce smooth -working "bulk" and prepare wastes for easy elimination.

Traffic On Great Lakes Is Reopened • Reopening of the Great Lakes water route emphasizes the tre- mendous volume of ship trans- portation on the lakes and the part this plays in the war efforts of Canada and the United States, comments The London Free Press. The Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence river form one of the busiest waterways in the world. More traffic passes up and down the Detroit river than on any other waterway in the world. Traffic through the Detroit river reached a peak of 111,346,567 tons hi 1940, the last year for which there are official figures. By the end of 1943 more than 110,000,000 tons of freight had passed through the canals at Sault Ste. Marie. In the same year more than 2,000 vessels cieard from Port Arthur and Fort William, two busiest Canadian Lake ports. These figures are a long way ahead of statistics for either the Suez or Panama canals and give an indication of the importance of these routes to the Allied war effort. The Great Lakes lie at the hear;± of the "arsenal of democ- racy"; their ships and their crews render one of the most essential services of the United Nations. Feather Dumplings rich beef stew with feathery eele dumplings carries us back to days when grandmother's din- ners filled our young hearts with joy. Mak- ing dumplings has become a lost art in far too manyhomes. Try the recipe below and your home. 'will im- mediately leave this category: Feather Dumplings for Beef Stew 1 cup sifted cake flour; 124 tea- spoons double-acting baking pow- der; 3 teaspoon salt; 6 table- spoons milk; 2 teaspoons melted fat. Sift floor once, measur e add baking powder and salt, and sift agent. Ada milk i k an d fat. Then atir quickly and lightly until a very soft dough is formed. Drop by small spoonfuls on simmering stew or fricassde, making sure each. dumpling rests on meat or vegeta- bles. (Dumplings should not settle in the Iiquid. If necessary pour of excess gravy, returning it to stew after the dumplings are cooked.) Cover kettle tightly and cook gently 14 minutes, Do not remove cover while dumplings cook. Makes 6 to 8 dumplings. Note: For the fat, use a little fat skimmed from stew in making these •dumplings. It gives extra good flavor, Supply Limited by Wartime Restrictions nurror4' , SNAPS, HOOK °AND Use a double thread to sew on buttons. Make a knot in the thread and hide the knot under the button by pushing the needle through from the right side. Place the button in position. Lay a pin across the top to keep the thread loose, sew back and forth across the pin. Wind the thread between the button and fabric to reinforce. Secure snap fasteners with an over and over stitch. Sew each hole separately. Carry the thread on the wrong side to the next hole. Most snap -fasteners have a perforation through the centre. Sew one side of the fastener. Hold the garment closed and draw the thread through to place the second half of the fastener. • SERIAL STORY Murder on the Boardwalk BY ELI•NO1ECOWAN. STONE ,4 Last Week: Christine does a portrait of Chandra, at Oriental swami, finds her new job pays gen- erously, She finds a message • ned to het easel: "If you are wor- ried, consult Chandra?' She goes to the Oriental's "Tempe of Truth." CHAPTER IV From within the "Temple of Truth" came the tinkle of belts and the wailing of pipes. "Well, at least this . is free," Christine said aloud, "and after all, he gave me my starton the Boardwalk." She slipped inside. On a stage designed to suggest all the mystery of the Orient, two slim girls, dressed as temple dancers, were gyrating and pros- trating themselves as if before an unseen presence. A deep gong souped, and they scurried from sight. ,From behind a screen of grillwork that simu- lated delicately carved white mar- ble, a shining figure in silver robes appeared as if by magic. He moved majestically forward and stood for a moment, his arms crossed on his chest, his dark face Iifted as if waiting — listening. Then he intoned in a'deep, vibrant voice, "Thy servant is ready, O. Krishna! Speak through these worthy lips." * * * For a while Chandra's` perform- ance was much like others Chris- tine had attended. He described small objects, gave the numbers of license cards, the insignia of. lodge ernbleins, and the dates on letters which an assistant in a white turban took from people sit- ting here and there and held, ap- parently without glancing at them, pressed against his own forehead. He read and answered questions without having seen or touched the cards on which they were written: "A lady wishes to know about s ring. . . . Yes, I see it clearly —an emerald set in diamonds. , , She thinks a maid stole it," Suddenly the strange tawny eyes in the dark face fixed them- selves upon a stout woman near Christine. "No, Madame, she did not take it. You should have looked more carefully," Chandra went on sternly, "before you accused a helpless servant of such a crime. Why, Madame, did it not occur to you that the ring plight have slipped through that rip in the lining of your purse?' * * * "Why not look now?" Chandra suggested, Then, as thea woman hesitated, he ahuost thundered "Look now, Madame, and be thankful that it is not too late to repair the mischief you have done!" The woman fumbled in her purse, cried out—a bit too sharply, Christine thought — and held aloft something that • glittered with green fire. "Oh, I ant so sorry about that girl," she stainlnerect. "I—I don't know how to thank you, Swami," "Do not thank me, Madame," Chandra told her., "It is the great god Krishna yott must thank." "The great god — my food" Christine thought derisively, "And that stooge's acting was terrible." All around she heard • murmurs,: "Isn't the swami marvelous?" "He told my sister alto—" ""—and it happened the very day he said it would!" * :* * Then abruptly, in the ntidet of a sentence, Chandra broke off, pressed his fingers to his eyes, and. said --a startled note in his deep, somnolent voice, "But this must wait. .'there comes to me— something urtgent!'• One cenld almes1 feel the '.donee its .the ronin, • "There is here at this moment," Chandra was going an, "a young woman who badly needs advice. I will not name her I will not even describe her or tell where she is sitting, I ani particularly anxious neither to embarrass nor annoy her — because the word has come to me that I nntst help her if I can." Behind Christine a voice said, "I never saw him do anything like this before, It gives inc the creeps." It gave Christine the creeps. Whether it was deliberate trick- ery with the illumination or not, all the light in the room seemed to gather itself about the glittering figure on the platform, "Within the last 24 hours," Chandra went on, "this young lady has encountered a series of surprising experiences. She has met with a grave disappointment; she has, by a strange coincidence, unexpectedly found work when she most needed it," * * * No one in the room seemed to breathe — least of all Christine. "During the last 24 hours," the "swami was going on, "this young Judy has also received a mysteri- ous telephone communication con- ceriing something very near to hero men safety, which i fear she has already decided to disregard." "But," Christine thought with a sickening clutch of premonition, "why—he hecan't' me. She did not know whether she Moved, or even spoke the words aloud. In any event, there was a sudden craning of necks. "I must ask for quiet!" Chan- dea's voice crackled. "You will, if you please, keep your eyes on me." His own strange,. tawny eyes were not on Christine, but widened on space, as if following some remote vision; yet elle felt that they did not miss a flicker of her eyelids; and that deep, hypnotic voice was compelling her to listen. "I would beg of that young lady," he was going on, his tone suddenly gentle and pleading, "that she think over the events of the past 24 hours. . . . I would beg, for instance, that she try to remember whether, when she re- turned to her room this afternoon, there was anything about its ap- pearance that excited her sus- picion. . . And now, if she will come to nue privately, I shall be glad to advise her, at no cost to heesef — because the word comes to me that this is a thing I :nest • do," * * * e.His eyes swept the spellbound audience commandingly, "That is all, my friends," he said. "Go in peace!" He raised his awns in what was 'almost a gesture. of blessing; and the audience • filed obediently out. As 'they 'went, Christine saw faces turned toward her—some touched 'with superstitious awe, some curi- ous—scone amused. Christine, restored to sanity by those glances; blazed with anger. She had once read a book caller' "AnExpose of the Medium Rack- a,"It was all entirely 'clear to her now. Of course that girl at the Beachmont telephone ex- change was a paid spy. * * * When Chirstine had recalled last night's conversation in the clear light of morning, it had entirely lost the filg;htehing strangeness her own confusion and fatigue had 1 int it the night be- fore. Of course everyone Beaeltntont knew who \iEmma '.Talbert was. n7611:114 t u.rrin 1st1snla d 1elepitcme.l i,' Li,,,+•rais to ome1:::one to Sri t.ta.t her i,l r,i went to the Cres' tvtet,, and the • o -day, as always, the 'Salado,' label is your guarantee of uniform blend of fine quality teas. Fr operator had overheard; and in her hurried attempt to pass on the information, had not had time to choose her words. But now it was not possible to put so innocent a construction upon the girl's strange behavior. Of course she was this man's spy. , How easy to listen in, and • find out that one of the wealthiest women o)> the beach was expect- ing a cousin to visit her, and the name of that cousin.... How easy, when the cousin called the house and found her hostess absent, to suggest a hotel k.nd how easy afterwards for this charlatan to have had her every- ' movement watched! "Well anyhow," Christine thought, 'he's not going to make a Roman holiday of me and get away with it." When the rest of the audience filed out, she remained stonily in her seat. The clairvoyant came to her at once. (Continued Next Week.) What New Big War Orders Mean Word comes that Canada is back in heavy munitions with some of the largest orders that have been plac- ed here since the beginning of the war; and over the news are head- lines telling that "huge orders for shells require 10,000 workers." But the real significance of these big new orders is not in the em- ployment they will give 10,000 workers. It is in what they tell of realization in the highest quarters that this war is far from over. It is something to Consider these days, when we are being asked to support the present war loam. —Ottawa Journal We Have Money To Buy Bonds The few Canadians who imagine that this nation Iacks the money to buy= Victory Bonds should look at the latest figures of the Bank of Canada. They show, in brief, that the sale of merchandise in the retail stores of Canada is now breaking all records because people have more money than ewer to spend, says The e W I znipeg Free Press, The retail sales index, which TODAY'S PATTERN averaged 100 between the pre-war years 1935-39, stood at 161 for the year 1943. People 'bought 61 per cent more goods in Canada tart year than in the pre-war years. Bet even this enormous spending i ee increased in the first months of 1944. In January of this year spend- ing stood at 167, only a fraction of a,point below .the great Ch,iste mag spending month of December.
