" mw 1
pOESN'T it mean good living at low cost? Foods that
are "short" in nourishing value and "long" in waste
are never economical.
The food, Grape-Nuts, is economical to the last serving
in the package, because every golden-crisp granule really
contributes to body-building.
Grape-Nuts offers the sturdy nutriment of wheat and
malted barley in unusually compact form a comparatively
small amount providing exceptional nourishment. The 12
ounce package contains about 16 servings costing about
one cent each.
Every bit of Grapt'Nuts is real food, uniquely free from th$
bulky tvaste found in many other food products.
Made from whole wheat flour and malted barley, Grape
Nuts has the benefit of 20 hours baking which so modifies
the starch of these grains that easy digestibility naturally
results.
Eaten with good milk or cream, GrapfNutt is a complete
food, which creates energy without taking away energy.
And the gradual, daily accumulation of power is the greatest
of all food economics, since reserve energy is uhat counts
most, cither in the sudden emergency or the long grind.
.1 food far economy food for health!
And a food with a vlunu ol flavor all its own.

THE BODY BUILDER
AT ALL CiKOClHS
It was partirul.irly hard to act a
part all day long, and every 'lay, nince
he had never been an actress before,
f her audience of two had had more
familiarity with the art, she might
not have succeeded in duping both
o completely. Jl nt they never dreamed
of the truth. lJcceiving them was
o eay that' she despised herself.
Especially she loathed the cruel days
that lie ahead of superannuated
preachers and had some how managed
to put away a little hoard against
the inevitable famine, though this
meant that even their prosperity va,
always just this side of pauperdom.
Hut they lavished their tinv wealth
upon their scapegrace daughter, and
never imagined that the real cause
for her spendthrift voyage was to
save herself and them from the catas
trophe of a public scandal.
Money is always the most emotion
al of human concerns, though it is
the least celebrated in romance.
Again and again Mem revolted at
the outrage of robbing her own par
ents of their one shield against old
age. She went again to Dr. Rrether-;
ick and demanded that he release her
from her promises not to tell the
truth and not to kill herself. Hut
he compelled her to hi will, and she
was too glad for a will to replace
her own panic to resist him. For a
necessary stimulant, he prophesied
that somehow in that land of gold
she was seeking she would find such
wealth that she could repay her par
ents their loan with usury, with
wealth, perhaps. Who knew?
In these tunes, he said, its the
girls who are running away from
home to find their fortunes. And
lots of 'em arc finding 'em.
"Your dear old fool of a father is
always preaching about the good old
days when women were respected
and respectable, when parents were
revered and took care of their chil
dren. As my boy says, where does
he get that stuff?
"Jfe knows better! Why does
he have to lie about it so piously?
Why don't they use some plain horse
sense, some truth with a little t in
the pulpit once in a while and mot
so much Truth with a capital T?
"In the 'good old days the best
parents used to whip their children
nearly to death; the poor 'ones bound
them out as apprentices into child
lavery, chained em to factories
for 14 hours a day. They had no
child- labor laws, no societies for
prevention of cruelty to children, no
children s court, no hoy Scouts or
Girl Scouts, and the wickedness was
frightful. As for the grown-up girls,
most of them had no education and
no chance for ambition. If they
went wrong they could go to a con
vent, or slink around the back streets
or go out and walk the streets at
night.. Ihe drunkenness and de
bauchery were hideous. Even the
Sabbath breaking and skepticism
were universal. But still they call
'em the 'good old days.'
"And they dare to praise them
above these glorious days when
women are for the first time free.
And men were never free, either, till
now; for men had the responsibility
of women's souls on their own. And,
my God! what a burden it was and
how they boggled it!
"This is really the year One. Now
at last a girl like you can look life
in the face, and if she makes a mis
take she can make her life worth
the good old U! uiml wuiii.ll. Von
ought to thank ") tor letting son

"I've never been anywhere or neen
anything. I've neer even seen a
movie," said Mem.
"Well, as the feller said who
ak''d if he could play the violin, he
didn't know, he'd never tried. When
you get a safe distance from any
danger ol giving your pa apoplexy,
sneak into a movie and see if you
see anything' j oil can't do. Looks
like to me you might cut quite a
swath there. Proh'ly you'd have to
leattl to ride a horse, throw a lasscio,
and danre; but f.illui' 'ft trains and
lulu' spilled off cliffs its automobiles
oughtn't to take much talent. And it
can't be very risky, since f see the
same young ladies runnin the same
gantlets and comm up sinilin in the
next picture. There's a serial at the
I'alace once a week that shows one
wide-eyed lassie who is absolutely
bullet-proof. They can't drown that
girl, burn her, freeze her or poison
her. She laughs at gravity, bounces
off roofs and cliffs and bobs up se
renely from below. Her throat
simply can't be throttled; she can
take care of herself anywheres. Why,
I've seen her overpower nearly a
hundred bandits so far, and she looks
fresher than ever. If I was you
I'd take a whack at it."
"Do they have movies In Tuck-
son .'
"I think likely. I bear they've cot
em on both poles, north and south.
Mem imbibed mysterious tonics at
the doctor' office, and always came
away buoyed up with the feeling that
her tragedy was unimportant, com
monlace and sure to have a happy
finish.
But the moment she reached liome
she entered a demesne where evry
thing was solmn, where joke were
never heard, except pathetic old wit
ticisms more important in intention
than in amusement.
They began to irritate her, to wear
her raw and exacerbate her tender
est feelings. She was beginning to
be ruined by the very influences that
should have sweetened her soul.
And at last, one day, quite unex
pectedly, wjien she was under no ap
parent tension at all, when lier
father had gone to visit a sick par
ishioner and her mother was quietly
at work upon Mem' traveling
clothes, the girl reached the end of
her resources.
Perhaps it was a noble revolt
against interminable deceit. Perhaps
it was a selfish impulse to fling off
a li'tlc of her bark-breaking burden
of silence. Perhaps it was a mad de
sire to make someone else a partner
in her lies, rerhans it was the tin
endurable hum of her mother's sew
ing machine.
Whatever it was that moved her,
she rose quietly, put down her
needlework, went into Mr. Sted
do.n's room, closed the door, took her
mother's hands from the cloth they
were guiding and said, in a quiet
tone:
"Mamma, I want to tell you some
thing. I'd rather break your heart
than deceive you any longer.
"Why, honey I What's the mat
terr Why, Mem dear, what on
earth is it? Sit down and tell your
mother, of course. You can't break
this tough old heart of mine. What
is it, baby?"
She whispered it so softly that her
breath was hardly syllabled. Her
