He picked up the telephone beside his bed. Is this Horace Creighton? asked a sweet feminine voice. Horace swallowed, 01 tried to.

It was her. Or she, he corrected himself. It waa her voice. Lord! What luckl Just a mument, he wheezed. He laid down the phone and scrambled out of bed.

In the bathroom of his bachelor apartment he consumed five glasses of water, gargled and rinsed his mouth. Then he splashed ice water onto his face and returned to the phone. Hello, there I he HIGHEST PRICES PAID FOR CREAM, EGGS, POULTRY, FURS Every time you snap the switch of your kitchen light or any other electric light in your home that light actually BURNS COAL. Thousands of tons of coal per day are required to manufacture electricity for Detroit Edison customers besides manpower, transportation and other critical materials. When you save electricity you save coaL and that is vitally important today.

Pasture the average farmers stepchild in peace times is becoming the fair-haired family favorite now that wartime shortages of protein feeds have developed, according to a statement made public here by the Middle West Soil Improvement Committee. Farmers are relying more and more on pastures to meet the critical lack of proteins, the statement points out, and to provide needed feed for livestock, poultry and dairy cattle. As a result, they are appreciating the value of pasture today as never before in history.

"Farmers are learning one important thing, too. That is that pasture and legume crops require soil management, including adequate fertilization, the same as do other farm crops. "Good pasturage is the result of careful work and attention to the oil's fertility level. For years agronomists have preached the advantage of pasture improvement. Now farmers are following this advice in increasing numbers because they realize that the success or failure of a pasture crop is determined by the Since the War Food Administration has urged farmers to make ap plication at race for fertiliser from their dealers end to neeept deliver' during the fall and winter months, farmers planning pasture improve ment programs should act immediately.

This is the surest means of making certain that they will have the plant food whei needed, because labor shortages a fertilizer factories, transportatioi tieups and' scarcities of certain me terials make last-minute deliverii an impossibility." Darling, she said. I am not aa honorable woman. exclaimed in a voice that was less rusty.

Is this Horace? i "Yes, it is," he cooed. This is Lita Daniels. I would have known your voice anywhere. She laughed. How sweet.

I called, she added, to ask whether it was one or two oclock that you asked me to meet you at the Rita today. I must confess that I wasnt er shall we say quite myself last night. Her voice was apologetic. He glanced at his watch. Twelve-thirty.

The time I suggested was two oclock, he admitted. "But if youd rather come earlier She proved to be even more beautiful than he remembered. He spotted her the moment he entered the Ritz cocktail lounge. She greeted him warmly. By jove! he thought when they were snugly ensconced at a remote table, shes gorgeous.

Thia is my lucky day. Aloud: I must confess I went over the top a bit last night. It isnt my accustomed habit, really. You must believe me. She laughed merrily.

Nor mine. Im afraid we were both er shall we say, carried away. A neat way of expressing it. "Lets celebrate by swearing off. Do you mean entirely? Of course not.

I merely meaner-being carried away. Horace felt weak and light-headed. He made a date for that night, and that night he made a date for the next night, and the next for the next and so on until there came a time a fortnight later when, in a daze of intoxication (Iffim love) he put the question. Lita, he said, will you matT me? But of course! How old fashioned you are. I love you for it.

The night that Sally Grant gave a party to announce their engagement both were so eager to celebrate that they er almost allowed themselves to be carried away. Lita came to him with tears in her eyes. I cannot go through with it without confessing. Darling, I am not an honorable woman. You must know.

Good heavens! cried Horace, his wqrld collapsing. What have you done? That morning the day I called you and asked about our date at the 'Ritz. You had not asked me to meet you at the Ritz at all. I only did it because I was afraid Id never see you again. Horace gathered himself together.

Honorable woman, he declared patting her hand. How nice it is to know, yes, to marry an honorable woman. He was never happier- I Mother. heed Si urgent advice of dbetora and hoapitala; do as they do; give your baby a daily body-rub with the antfweptle oil that chases away germs, and keeps the skin safe That means Melinen Antiseptic Oil.

Several cases of lead poisoning emphasize the need for keeping animals from buildings, fences and oth- er equipment with a freshly painted surface that looks particularly succulent to them. Old paint buckets are not above reproach, and they also should be kept out of reach of livestock. Deaths from lead poisoning are even more tragic because they are so easily prevented by a little care on tha part of the owner.
