Says Mr. C. Boyer, Valleyfield, Quebec: 'Tor many year* we've enjoyed KELLOOG'S ALI^BRAN. the delicious cereal that keeps u regular . . . naturally. In muffins, ALL-BRAN is delicious ... we have them almost every day. And ALL-BRAN is a grand cereal fo: breakfast." Why don't you try ALL-BRAN'S "Better Way" to correct the cause if you arc troubled by constipation due to lack of the right kind of 'bulk* in your diet ? But remember, ALL-BRAN doesn't work like cathartics. It takes time. Eat it regularly and drink plenty of water. Get ALL-BRAN at your grocer's, in two convenient size packages, or ask for the individual serving package at restaurants. Made by Kellogg'* in London, Canada. SERIAL STORY MURDER IN FERRY COMMAND BY A. W. O'BRIEN ESCAPE THE HARD WAY CHAPTER VIII Like a person walking under a strange roof aud attempting to figure where he Is, Dawson fought trough a haze of pain to clear kit mind. The least motion of his body brought savage darts while Us head pounded mercilessly. His noutli was dry aa parchment and Us tongue evidently wollen. As ke twisted a bit to the right the fain Increased around his heart . . . then he remembered John's eking words and the flash of His wrists and ankles were Mmb, for which he was grateful. Tfcey were badly swollen, but he'd be able to work on them without too much suffering. The gray light of pre-dawn trickled through a ekyllght Into kto storeroom prison. Peering at ft forms about him he concluded number of them were packing KIDDIE JUMPER MODE By Anne Adamt The minimum of fabric and sewing time will be required to make this Anne Adams jumper, Pattern 4222.

Picking out a large one propped in a corner, he began the ordeal of wriggling toward H. Eventually he made it. panting for breath, salty perspiration dripping over bis eyes. Slowly he maneuvered for posi- tion, lifting his bound legs and propping them against the high rough edge. Muttering a ellent prayer that the packing case wouldn't move with the weight of hU legs, he drew them up and down so that the rope binding his anklee scraped on the edge. Until he got the use of his legs he couldn't stand up to free his hands th same way. It was a long, tedious Job hours It seemed while the gray light changed to bright sunlight. Frequently he felt his head swim- ming, but Dawson continued scrap- Ing. It had to be done easily leet tihe sound awaken his captors. . . . Abruptly he froze. What was that? A door had shut almost directly below him and . . . yes. somebody was mounting the stairs! Frantically, Dawson poured ev- ery ounce of power Into the scrap- ing . . . the rope was stretching . . . break, damn you, break . . . there was a key grinding In the lock . . . one more last push that did It ... the rope parted! Digging his teeth Into his lips to suppress his sobbing breath, Dawson swung his legs over to one side, and stretched out still just a the door swiMig open. The dusty rays from the sky- light reflected on a revolver In a man's hand It wasn't John; It must be the other man who had helped carry him (lie night before. Suspiciously, the man looked from the spot where they had thrown the captive to the shadowy porner. Slowly he approached, gun aimed squarely at Dawson. "Water, for God's sake, water!" The. mun'ri unerring fnce was directly over him now. "Mow would like an Ice cold Tom Collins, bis shot?" he rasped. Dawson barely opened Ills ryes a he spoke again: "Ixx>k nt my ankles sunn-thing has happened!" * * It was a dijsporiiln Kiimhle, but Dawson put everything on the fuel that he was in a dark I'oruer and the man would have to bend over to aee. . . It was working- he was bending over crrlously . . . now was the moment! With every last hit of strength drawn from the reserve of n well- conditioned physique. Dawson wtreullcd himself wllb his left, foot and kicked upwards with hiii right. It landed with a sli-kenlug crunch and the man crumbled across Daw- .ton's legs! It wouldn't do for this chap to waken ii.p too soon. Hrutally, IXiw- son kicked three limes full into the face of the unconscious man that ought) to do the trick. Gradually, Dawson sorambled to hta feet he had nevor realized before how difficult It was to rise from the floor with one's hands tied. Ills head HWUIU dizzily and Ills knees l.rembled. The nervous ten- sion plus the long period during GOOD EATING NEWS Sleight-of-hand won't produce meat when it's needed for the boys in the service.

Yield: ;i servings (!) x 9-inch pan.) the ankle* were tied left him In bad fth.qie. He'd have to work with the utmost caution. Backing Into the door so that b graeped the doorknob with hlg tied hands, he closed it softly. Them he moved quickly across tlie toreroom and turned his back to the packing case edge, using the draping method on the wrist rope. It took even longer than the other, but tin* tough strands fin- ally parted. For fully five min- utes he rubbed the angry, swollen wrtets before turning to the man on the floor. From a packing case h stripped a length of wire and deftly bound him. Picking up the revolver, he open- ed the door gingerly and stepped into the hall. Still no sounds ex- cept from the kitchen. Identifying the hall through which he had been carried as that of i im second floor, he walked on tiptoe, pausing at fih door beside tne main staircase leading to the ground floor. It had been a man's room. Pressing his ear against the door, he heard deep, regular breathing. Ever so carefully, he turned the handle. It opened noise- lessly and Dawson whteked Inside. John was In bed sleeping, peacefully. Dawson was beside him In a flaeh, switching the re- volver around so that he grasped it by the barrel. He shook the sleeping man ten- derly. "Wake up, cutle, and see who's here!" he said In a loud whisper. The regular breathing ceased vnd John's eyes fluttered open. For a second he stared up un- eeingly, then sat bolt upright, hte mouth opening In the prelude to a yell. That's Just what Dawaon was waiting for. His arm swung In a short arc and the butt of the re- volver caught John squarely In the mouth. "Now get up. skunk, and watch yourself!" he growled. Clutching his mouth, John slow- ly moved out of the bed and stood up. "Walk ahead of me through the door and downstairs. One false move and I'll drill you!" Obediently, John half staggered to the door. Dawson swung It wide and Ills prisoner walked Into the hallway, halting at the top of the steps. Something In bis man- ner caught l>:iw son's attention. Flashing a glance down the steps, he saw the dow houeekeeper half- way up a snub-nosed automatic in her hand! Ditwson didn't falter he fired without warning and the house- keeper clutched her shoulder, tot- tering sideways aud rolling down the steps. Dawson bounced past John to the next door the door loading into the girl's room. He pushed H oiH-n and went In revolver fiivt. One quick glance tol<l him H was ii-noccupied -the bed had not been slept In. John was still standing rock-like In terror at the head of the stairs. "Okay, chum." Dawson grinned. "Lot's go downstairs." As they passed the prostrate form of the housekeeper, the in- vestigator examined her briefly. "Sorry, grandma," ho said, "but you should he a nice girl." Dig- uing his sun Into John's back, he continued, "and you keep right at the end of tills g-un while I phone Just In i-a^e there should be somebody eteo in this den of rats." Using only one liniul, Dawson flipped the plume off the hook and dialed "Operator." Lifting the re- ceiver he barked: "Federal Hiiro. ui of Investiga- tionemergency! " Almost linmeillalely. he was through to tin- officer In charge. "This Is Clvdi- Dawson of the Canadian Intelligence Department . . ." John hnlf turned and Daw- son dug the gun into his hack- hone. "I'v*- Imggi-d a nest of Nazis you'll want to im'et please make It fflii't." He gave the address and the phone clicked. Just as Dawson hung up, the doorbell Bounded. Wheeling quick- ly, h pointed to the fUx>r: "Lie down, toothless flat on your hack iind one move to get up will he. your last!" Dawson stepped hack wards to the, door and peered through the glass. It was the postman. Shift- ing lil revolver to the other hand, ho opened the door. "Special delivery le>tter for Mr. John Dexel." "I'll sign for It", Dawson re- plIiMl. Closing the door again, he look- ed at the letter, his curiosity In- stantly aroused. The postmark was North Sydney, Nov Sootln. Dawson didn't hesitate. Ho tore the letter open.

Those seek- ing allowances in addition to their normal ration have told the board that more sugar is needed for cooking apples, but the board is taking the position that Winter apples are not perishable and there is no urgency in the situ- ation. TABLE TALKS SADIE B. CHAMBERS 'Aids To Rationing I expect many of you are won- dering if it is advisable to have a Christmas cake this year. Maybe it is; if so, this recipe was handed to me, as one, which was used greatly in the last war and be- came very popular. Canada's War Cake 2 cupfuls brown sugar 2 tablespoons lard 1 package seeded raisins 1 teaspoon cinnamon 2 cups hot water 1 teaspoon salt H teaspoon cloves or ginger Boil all these ingredients to- gether for 5 minutes after they begin to bubble. When cold add: 8 cuj>s flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda (dissolved in 1 teaspoon hot water). Bake in 2 loaves for 45 minutes in a slow oven. This cake it better at the end of the week or even longer. It ripens as does all fruit cake. Sandwich Filling. 16 medium sized sweet red peppers I'll cups flour 1H cups white sugar Scant % cup mustard 1H cups cider vinegar 8 cups water 2 teaspoons salt Wash, cut and remove seeds from peppers. Cover with water in the saucepan and boil until ten- der, about 15 or 20 minutes. Drain; remove the skin from pep- pers and chop into fine pieces. Mix the dry ingredients thorough- ly (sifting is the best method) ; add the vinegar and the water and cook this mixture in a double boiler for 20 minutes, stirring quite frequently so that it will re- main smooth. Add the chopped red peppers to the mixture anil cook for 10 minutes longer. Put in sterile glasses. To the sandwich filling may be added grated cheese, nuts, etc. for variation. Red Pepper Sauce 12 sweet red peppers 4 medium sized onions 2 lemons 3H cups sugar llemove the seeds from the pep- pers and put peppers alonj? with the onions through the food chop- per or chop fine. Cover with cold water, bring to the boil and drain. Barely cover with cider vinegar. Keep in line with timely economy. Crown Brand Syrup in addition to its other uses, Is being so generally used to supplement sugar, that the demand has increased tremendously so that sometimes your grocer may not be able to supply you. But you'll understand why. A great deal more " Crown Brand " is being produced this year but it cannol be expected to meet a demand resulting from a war shortage of millions of pounds of sugar. The supply of Crown Brand Syrup, like ether things, must be shared, ^on't hoard buy normally. With the help of your grocer, every effort Is being made to keep you supplied with this delicious syrup.
