Had he liv- terably ashamed, promising the Lord that I would tell Allan all as soon as he returned, and would leave Winni- peg at once. Shaken by the thought of the weakness that had caused me to plan to pile my burden upon an- other I threw myself upon the bed in an abandonment of grief. I was ap- palled by the thought of the terrible task that lay before me! When Allan returned from the fire I must tell him of my base deception. I do not know how long I lay there, wretchedly try- ing to form the words that must de- stroy his faith in me. But weak as I was I fell asleep, and when I woke, still fully dressed, the faint light of dawn filled the room. I did not know what had roused me until a light knocking sounded. I unlocked the door and saw my friend also dressed, in her evening clothes, carrying a tray containing tea and toast. "Oh, I see you are dressed dear" she whis- pered closing the door quietly "You doubtless know that something is a- miss in the house." "What is it?" I cried in vague ter- Tor. "Drink this tea and eat something, dear. Then I shall tell you." I drank the tea and felt stronger. "Oh tell me now," I urged. "Faith," she began sadly, "I have often thought that you and Allan -would marry some day. If I was right, you have a hard blow to face." I winc- ed at her first words, and felt stronge- ly chilled as she finished. "What is it?" I gasped, sensing ca-} lamity in her tone and in the expres- sion of her face. Taking my hand she said gently: "There was a terrible fire last night. It was an old apartment building. Peo- ple who were carried from the build- ing were given first aid. on the street. There was no time to take them to the hospital, for many were dying. Allan was there helping and comforting as only he could. Suddenly a woman who had been carried out insensible re- vived, and screamed out that her ba- by was in the top apartment. His cot had been overlooked in the dense smoke. The firemen groaned. It was too late; orders had been given to let no one enter the smoke filled building again. Allan spoke up: "I'll get your babe, Mrs. Cook." But the firemen blocked the way. "No sir, don't try it." "TImpossible!--CERTAIN DEATH." - "T have given my word," answered Allan. "It will be as the Lord wills." Something in his tone made the fire- men fall back, and amidst cries of the women and groans of the men he mounted the ladder to the top of the burning building. Swiftly they prepar- ed to catch the baby. A moment's tense silence; then at the smoking opening that had been a window they say Al- lan holding a baby. He held it out and dropped it carefully.

FOOD AND PROCESS OF LIVING All living processes require energy for work, maintenance, repair, heat production, etc. Energy is obtained by We use food for building, fuel, and storage purposes. Selection of food is thus important both as to quantity and quality. The three groups proper are CAR- and PRO- TEINS. Carbohydrates are the body's tions of carbon, hydrogen, and oxy- gen. Sunlight passing through the green leaf enables plants to split up carbon-dioxide from the air into car- bon and oxygen which unites with hydrogen from the water in the soil to make carbonhydrates (carbon wa- ter). Sugars and starches belong to this group. F, The next group is FATS. When eat- en fats can be burned or stored. When taken in excess of the energy required jt is stored under the skin. Fats are utilized by the body in the form of glycerine and fatty acids, to which they are reduced by the digestive juices. The last great group is the PRO- TEINS.
