DOSING CONSTIPATION tECTED "Regularity" is important any time, but it's vitally important in these buiy war days when all of us are working harder than ever. Don't you be "slowed down" by that common type at constipation due to lack of "bulk" in your diet. And be sensible . . . correct the trouble right at its source instead of "dosing" with harsh purgative* that give only temporary relief. Eat KKLLOGG'S ALL-BRAN . . . grand- tasting as a cereal or in hot, crispy muffins . . . eat it every day . . . drink plenty of water . . . then see if you don't forget you ever had common constipation. For ALL. -BRAN sup- plies the "bulk" your diet needs . . . promotes natural regularity. Your grocer has ALL-BRAN in two con- venient sues. Made by Kellogg's in London, Canada. TO THE HILT By Percival Christopher Wren CHAPTER XXV Comfortably seated side by aide on the cushioned charpai, the two talked of old times, talked as they had done a thousand times in childhood when the girl had keen the boy's inseparable com- panion, fag, henchman and will- lot, slave. Slowly he thawed and warmed towards the woman of whom he )... always been quietly fond, whom he had always admired without praise and had approved without acknowledgment. And when he realized that she kad come to India with no other bject or reason than to try to find him, to help him in any way that might be possible and to ad- vise him wisely and induce him to return, he wa> more moved and touched than he would admit veil to himself. The child who had been a good scout, a sound pal, had grown up into a remark- able woman. Quilt unconsciously he put his arm about her shoul- ders nad drew her to him. "Oh, Dickie. You do forgive e?" "Yes," replied Kichard Wend- ver. "Yes, I'll forgive you, young Sybil this once. . . . Hen-, don't strangle me!" That evening, hurrying down- stairs lest she should be late for dinner - - and for a big dinner parly late in the (iencral's house of all places, Sybil found that she wsj first in Uie drawing-room. A car druvu up to the steps and a man in evening dress stcp- pcd out. The butler announced into the emptiness of the Ki'tat drawing-room: ".Mr. Stuyvesant Sahib," bowed and retired. Looking round the room for his host and hostess and seeing no one the man, with as-sured man- ner, xlrode UITO.-.S the .shilling parquet in the direction of the log fire and suddenly saw Sybil Woulkes seated in a high-backed chair.

This young officer was com- plimented, decorated and promot- ed a sufficient answer to the malicious scandalmongers who had been more than hinting that he had tried to buy his own safety at the expense of that of a Brit- ish outpost. "I say, Dickie, I've just thought of such a queer thing that hap- pened here a little while ago," Sybil was saying to Wendover as the General was watching them. "Oh? It didn't strike you dumb!" "It did thoufrh for a moment. Who do you think walked into the drawing-room while I was sit- ting there alone? Do you re- member that Prince Bailitzin? 1 ' Wendover's eyes turned sharp- ly toward hers. "Yes, I do remember a gentle- man named Bailitzin," he said. "Well, I was sitting in the draw- ing-room alone just before dinner and he walked in." "Did he, now?" said Wendover quietly. "Yes, and the curious thing was that the butler called out 'Mr. Stuyvesant, Sahib," most dis- tinctly." "Oh, yes? And what happen- ed ?" "The man came across the room, saw me and gave a start. It must have boon Prince liailitz- in because he obviously recogniz- ed me immediately and just star- ed gaped. I said 'Why, Prince Hailitzin!' and then he turned about and marched out of the room. And he must have gone straight away because he wasn't at the dinner." So the good Bailitzin had been down in Peshawar, had lie, re- flected Wendover, and in the role of an American special corres- pondent!

And he must have done a little hurrying that same night back to his hotel, changed into Pathan kit, away down to the bazaar, and off to the hills with a picked handful of the Singing Hadji's best outlaws. And that's where he's probably go and lie up for a while. He'd be safe in Sufed Kot with the Singing Hadji as long as the sup- ply of roubles and rifles lasted, and that would he indefinitely, while he continued his anti-Road agitation in Sufed Kot and Khair- astan. Bailitzin! What a cruel pity. It made one sick to think that he had been so near so recently. He must have gvien Shere Khan the slip after all. Perhaps Shere Khan had found out and followed him and was in Peshawar even now. And now if he, Gul Mahcmmed of Khairabad, were permanently changed back into Major Wend- over of Napier's Horse, he'd never see Bailitzin again; never get him where he wanted him. * * * To Captain Richard Wendover and Tommy Dodd, seated at the latter's dinner table over a glass of excellent port, entered Major Bartholomew Hazelrigg. "Hullo, Ganesh! Come and sit down and have a liqueur brandy or a glass of port. When are you off?" "One thing at a time, Tommy Dodd," replied Ganesh Hazelrigg ponderously. "Don't hurry me. When am I off? Tomorrow. Good evening, Dick Wendover." "Good evening, Ganesh." "It was you I came to see," continued Hazelrigg. "Not this noisy feller Dodd. I want to know, once and for all and finally, whether you've made up your mind about the Levy job." "Yes, quite definitely," said Wendover quickly. "I'm more than willing to raise and com- mand a regiment to be called the Khairastan Levies which, in re- turn for pay, rifles and uniform, will guarantee to protect the Khairastan-Giltraza Road. . . . I'd want an absolutely free hand, of course, the irreducible min- imum of red tape, and to pick my own officers." "Oh, they'll be only too glad to give you a free hand," replied Hazelrigg. "Meantime, you'll re- join Napier's Flor.se, I s'pose?" "Yes. tomorrow." (Continued Next Week) Report On Grain Crops In Ontario Yields of spring grain, now practically cut and threshed throughout the province, arc far below normal and will not be suf- ficient to meet the demands for livestock feeding, according to the monthly crop report of the On- tario Department of Agriculture. Several cars of Western grain have been ordered to meet the shortage, and many more will he required to maintain production of ment, milk and eggs and provide sped grain for next spring. Fall prnins and feed crops, the report said, show prospects of better yields. All classes of livestock are re- ported in good condition, hut pur- chases of feeder cattle are down due to hi^h prices and crop short- arcs. Demand for dairy cattle and sows is good. A drop in the potato crop is ex- pected, due to weather conditions, the high cost of seed and the scarcity of labor. Carleton County, major potato producing district, reports a crop cut of 60 per cent., and the North Bay section of Northern Ontario less than 40 per cent, of normal due to patchy fiolds and disease that has affect- ed potatoes In all parts of the province. Not Many Big Incomes In Britain Income-tax and super-tax on th largest Incomes In Great Britain take '.i.'u per cent of the grost Income. Only 80 people In Qreat Britain now have au Income, after taxes are paid, of more than 6,000 (about $26,000). TABLE TALES SADIE B.

Pockets to Jingle With Cash Again Higher Prices For Wheat Mean Money in Purse for Prairie Farmer Prairie farmer's pockets will Jingle with cash this autumn In contrast with empty pockets In many pre-war years. The Winnipeg Grain Exchange, which early In the year attracted little attention, once again Is In the frontlne of farmers' news In- terest. Wheat prices are the highest In open market trading since 1937, and with Increased export demand talk of $1.25 a bushel wheat be- fore long Is common. Prices today are around the 11.18 mark for the October future, a gain of more than 2S cents a bushel compared with a year ago. A sharp upturn in export de- mand has been a major factor along with a big Increase In de- mand from eastern Canada for feed grains expected to reach re- cord proportions this year. Mil- lions of bushels are expected to be taken by eastern buyers. Oats, Barley and Flax The United States and the United Kingdom have taken the bulk of export business, but there has also been good trade with Mexico, Portugal. Switzerland, Sweden and neutral Eire. Heavy wheat export business was reported last week with the total for the six-day trading per- iod placed at 18,000,000 bushels. The grain exchange has not pro- vided all the good news for western farmers. They will col- lect higher prices for oats, barley and flax under federal govern- ment subsidies and to add to the cash Income will be several mil. lion dollars paid under the wheat acreage reduction plan. First acre- age reduction cheques are In the mail. They represent a distribu- tion of $7,000,000. In 1942 acre- age reduction payments totalled $20.000.000 on the prairies.

New Inner Tube To Outdo Rubber Elasto-Plastic Substance 100 Per Cent Reclaimable Development of a new elastn- plastic material which, its dis- coverers assert, promises to out- mode rubber in automobile inner tubes and numerous other prod- ucts, was announced recently by Glenn L. Martin, president of the aircraft manufacturing company which bears his name. The substance, which has been named marvinol, is not a syn- thetic rubber, Martin declared, but a new material better suited for many of the purposes for which rubber has been used than rubber itself. "The new chem-elastic sub- stance, which in effect makes it possible to manufacture inner tubes from coal, salt and water on standard rubber fabricating equipment has been picked out of the research laboratory before its uses have been fully exploit- ed," Martin said in a statement. "This was done because we were aware t.iat marvinol an- swered critical war needs espe- cially for automobile inner tubes and delicate gloves for surgeons." Martin said that one of the principal advantages of the sub- stance was that it was 100 per cent reclaimable a property which he said "may in itself revo- lutionize the entire' inner tube industry." Another valuable property, he said, is marvinol's ability to retain air when used in Inner tubes. Arctic Country Farmers' Paradise Grain, Vegetables Flourish In Short Hot Summer Perhaps the most flourishing part or the world at tlif present time Is Alaska. Its rapidly increas- ing population have no fear of air raids or Invasion and they are In- tensely busy producing not only minerals but food stuffs. For long Alaska has figured as an Arctic country ^ where the only products were gold and furs. To- day It has become a great farming centre. True, the winter Is long and cold, but the growth In sum- mer Is Incredibly swift. A visitor to Fort McPherson, which is North of the Arctic Circle, says that on June 20th new buds on the trees were Just per- ceptible. Forty-eight hours later the trees were In full leaf. In July It was unbearably hot. On five days In July the average shade temperature was 95 deg. Fahren- heit. Potatoes do well, and have been grown successfully sixty miles north of the Arctic Circle. Cab- bages, cauliflower, lettuce, car- rots, parsnips, beet, onions and rhubarb all flourish during the short, warm summer. The Russians tell the same story. At Igarka In Arctic Siberia the cabbages are finer than those grown on the Volga. Flowers are marvellous. Violets, marguerites, forget-met-nots are twice the us- ual size. At Khlbin on the Kola Peninsula 20 tons of potatoes have been dug from an acre. Oats grow five feet high, barley and wheat ripen, and all kinds of vegetables flourish. British Cheese Supply Doubtful A subsidy on milk to be used in the manufacture of cheese, an- nounced last week, is designed to avert the pressing danger that Canada will be unable to fulfil her agreement to provide Britain with 150,000,000 pounds of cheese In the present contract year.

I; 1942 I here was anxiety over butter supplies, while cheese out- put was making records. Later, butter production was encouraged by subsidies. Xow butter production has in- creased to the point where it is possible to make a quantity avail- able to the United Kingdom as well as meet Canadian ration re- quirements and the needs of the forces at home, as well as supply ships entering Canadian ports. The subsidy on milk to be used in cheese production will be 30 cents a 100 pounds and will be payable from October 1 to April 30. Officials said they hcped the effect would be to keep dairy herds in cheese manufacturing areas up to full production dur- ing the coming fall and winter months. Cuts Consumption Of Fuel In Half A method by which "three or four shovels of coal will keep burning for 24 hours and give plenty of heat" has been devised by Wilfrid S. Higgins of Niagara Falls. Fuel consumption is cut more than half during the months when only a small fire is required, he said, by "bricking up" one side of the firepot, thereby reducing the size of the pot. "You simply put a bed of ashes on top of the grates on one side of the firepot. Then lay the bricks on that, piling them one on top of the other loosely. Five or six bricks are sufficient. Cover them with a light surface of ashes."
