A large force of wrocksre were set to work and oscellent prog- ress was being made up in last Tues- day night when the last big broke on the coast.

The shan- doacd wreckers. together with the crew of the Rickmors. made 72 men in all on the ship. As the storm increas- ed the waves began to pound the big veaul. breaking over her constantly and driving her slowly. but. steadily. back on the bar. One by one her masts went by the board and the storm howling through the tangled rigging and the great wuvoe surging over the cmlnbllnk hulk threatened to sweep every living thing on board into the sea. in the meantime the plight of the man had become known to the life savers. First the Oak Island crew used all their efforts in stretching life lines to the Rickmors. but before a single man could be hauled ashore the lines were snapped oil. The wind increased in force and the waves ran higher and higher. Stoodily the position of the men on the wrecked ship became dos- perate. The helpless watchers on shore saw the big declihotiee washed into the sea and renewed their efforts to get other lines to the ship. They found themklves hol less and at last the life-savers themse ves sent an air . peel for help to Jonee’ Mach, chh' I inlet.

Early this morning the storm hurl subsided suillclently to permit the wreckers on board the ship to launch their boats and they came ashore un- aided. Then a line was sent to the wreck and the crew of the ship were brought to the beach. They were taken to the life-saving station and started at once for Fret-port I.

Wisnm . «mom due y T l . . . Poor Economy . It is easy to make flaked food for 10 cents. We could use a cheaper wheat-wt use corn. And leave out the pure maple syrup. We could leave in the broken flakes that we now sift out—about 10% of the product. g y We could use the process that some others usc~irom18to 20 hours. Thoproooss we do use requires 96 hours. But that iswhat makes Mopl- * Flake what it to. . 5 Our wheat is steam-cooked for six hours. Then thoroughly cured. Then flaked so thin that the full heat of our ovens getstooa‘ch atom. Then it' re toasted, ,' for 30 minutes, in a heat of 400 do cos. The object' is to make the starch all digest- ible. For wheat is largely starch. 1‘ Starch, to be digestible, must be made soluble. The particles must be separated so the digestive juices can get to them. When wheat is half cooked only half will digest. That is why we spend the 96 hours. And why Hopi-Flake costs 15 cents. It is to create a food that’s all food. To sup- ply your children as good a food as we insist on for ours. To give you a food that’s really cheap because it all digests. And the real dldoroaco in cost ids triile. vAdd the cost of the cream. and see liow little you save by getting a secondary tood. Thou consider the flavor—tho demo! pure maple syrup. For we cook our wheat in tho pure Vermont product. Think how that entices tho children—how it leads them to eat the food that is best tor them.
