The pillared porches and tapestry brick wings had been added in recent years, but the walnut-pan- eled halls had been built by the Blais- dells’ grandparents. “This is Nan and youll love her,” Merriam chattered as she presented John to their hostess.

There weére “three distinct groups— the youngsters, whose phonograph was noisily Jazzing- e men, who seemed to be playing pool mostly— and several women who had risen pértunctorily from two bridge tables. A lone man, much harassed, stood with them. All three groups vied with each other for Merry. Thorne tried to kid- nap her. His eldest son struggled for her.

There is nothing to fear from hunters after dark. We've given up coming here until late in the evening. And since we did that we haven't heard a gun.” Blacky gossiped a while longer, then flew off to look for his break- fast, and as he flew his heart was light.

And I'm glad 1 didn't say a word to anybody about seeing him with a terrible gun. Blacky was right. Farmer Brown's Boy had taken that way of making sure that the hunter who had first baited those Ducks with yellow corn scattered in the rushes in front of his hiding place should have no chance to kill any of them. While appear- ing to be an enemy, he really had been a friend of Dusky the Black Duck and his flock. (Copyright, 1 by T. W. Bargess.) I know seen him Van Slyke. Up the stairs leaped Merry.

Bread and Nucoa form a combination of life-giving essentials. Coco- nuts and rich milk, which compose the principal ingre- dients of Nucoa, abound in all of the vital food elements which scientists tell us we should eat. Use Nucoa on your table—a pure food of marked distinction and high nutritive value. It’s economical, too. How Nucoa s made In our spotless sunlit plants Nucoa is churned—just as creamery butter is churned—under conditions of scrupu- lous cleanliness. We wish every one could visit one of our plants and see the care that is exercised to protect the absolute purity of Nucoa. From the laboratory inspection of the ingredients through every process of manufacture, purity and cleanliness are the first consideration. You would then understand why discriminating housewives choose this superior spread-for-bread for their tables. Nucoa is sold uncolored Nucoa is packed in its natural whkw'h really a guarantee of its purity. Many people prefer to serve it this way. But for those who prefer to serve it colored we provide with each package a small container of pure coloring matter. It is only a moment’s work to blend this with Nucoa to give it the exact shade of “butter” yellow Start serving Nucoa today.. If your grocer does not carry it, let us know. We will see to it that you are supplied. : N 10 Wholesale Row 5 ‘Washington, D. C, Representative of THE NUCOA BUTTER COMPANY 3 : \ \ BUTTERS BREAD JOSEPH ,PHILLIPS COMPANY
