Yes"
Where is the key?"
Mrs. Varney left the room and went
to the door,

Will you lock it, please?"
The woman softly turned the key
in the lock- and returned to the draw
ing room without a sound AS she
did so the noise of the opening of one
of the long French windows in the
front of the room attracted the atten-
ton of both of them. Edith Varney
entered the room nervously and
stepped forward. She began breath

voice.

menacingly at her elbow.
Don't speak so loud" whispered
the secret service agent.
Edith" said her mother soothing
ly, what is it that has changed you? ?"
She waited for an answer, but none
came. The girls face had been very
pale, but it now flushed suddenly with
color.
Dear" said her mother, you must
tell me-"
Edith motioned Mr.. Arrelsford away
He went with ill-concealed impatience
to the far side of the room and waited
nervously to give the signal, anxious
lest something should miscarry be-
cause of this unfortunate unwilling
ness of the girl to play her part.
What is it, dear?" whispered her
mother.
Mamma" said Edith, she forced
the words out, "he-he-loves me"
''lmpossiblei" returned Mrs. Var
Dey, controlling her voice so that the
other occupant of the room could not
hear.
Yes" faltered the girl, "and L
some one else must do it."

ney. that you return"
But Mr.. Arrelsford's patience had
been strained to the breaking point.
He did not know what interchange
was going on between the two women,
but it must be stopped. He came for
ward resolutely. The girl saw his
determination In his face
No, no." she whispered mot that,

She shrank away from him as she
spoke.
But, Edith" said Mrs. varney,

But why-why are you doing this p"

Switzerland Proposes To
Encourage Foreign Auto
Tourists 10 Visit Country

Berne, Switzerland, April 18.-It VIII
interest American tourists to learn
that in view Of the veXatous regula-
tions in certain cantOns OF Switzerland
and prohibition in the canton Of Girls
ons there is a movement on foot to
secure the relaxation of these restric-
lions and to encourage the visits Of
the foreign automobiles. The reason
for this is not only the obvious alb
surdity Of the regulations, but the fact
that their existence has not deferred
the American and English visitor from
touring the country in his own car.
Statistics Just issued show re-
marl1able increase in the number Of
foreign visitors by automobile. 1t is
officially recorded that in 1913, the
number of foreign cars crossing the
frontier was 1882 as against S7G6 in
1912, and 1908 in 1910. AS each car
on an average contains five persons,
who stay at least 10 days in the coun-
try, spending So a day, the minimum
sum the Swiss obtain from motorists
alone is S625,00O in the summer sea-
son and the chances are that it is
twice that amount
The percentage of continental visi-
tors is small compared with the num-
Der of tourists from America and Eng
land and it is more than likely that
the Swiss legislators win soon realize
the folly of putting every possible OBJ
stacle in the way of people who con-
tribute so considerably to the revenue
of the country.

1914 New Mexico VIII spend 100000
on its state highway system, aside
from the sums which the various coun-
ties will spend on roads within the
counties. Plans are now under way
for floating the half million IN bonds
ratified by the state legislature, which
viii form the nucleus Of the good roads
fund.
The completion of FL Canine Real,
traversing the state from north to
south, and connecting up with the Col
OradO state highway on the norIh ana
with the Borderland route at FL PasO
on the south, viii be accomplished this
year. This highway will furnish one
of the finest scenic rOadWays adapt
able TO motor travel in the United
States and the state proposes to widely
advertise the highway in an effort to
travel to the eXpOsitions in California
during 1915.
COnvicts are now employed at sew
eral points in the state, building feed
ers for the highway and improving
roads within the counties. The en-
ployment of this class of labor has
proved highly satisfactory, the cOun-
ties providing food and shelter for the
convicts in return for the labor fur

Having waited several days for the
arrival of his Studebaker six" A. w.
Smith, Of Lockhart, Tex, was finally
notified by the dealer that his car had
just arrived in a shipment from Detroit
Mr.. Smith, an experienced motorist,
went to the yards, helped unload his
car, hastily poured in a couple gallons
of gasoline and a little oil, and started,
with several friends, for San Marcos,
where he was due to meet an l. & G..
y. train.
Mr. Smith let it slip along in lively
style, making the p miles in 4S min
utes over a rather rough road.
At San Marcos the train was reported
as two hours late, so Mr.. Smith rolled
around to a garage and ordered the
tanks filled to capacity. When this
was done an attendant suggested that
the car, being new, might also need
water. Much to the amazement of Mr..
Smith. the attendant and several by
ISLANDERS, the water ran straight through
the radiator and out at the petcOck at
the bottom. Investigation showed that
the car had not been supplied with q
drop of water since the radiator had
been drained prior to the departure
from the Studebaker plants in Detroit.
The surprise OF all hands was the
more pronounced, as the motor was not
unduly hot and had not appeared to be
in want of a drink. despite the fast
running and the fact that the day,
while cool for Texas, would have seemed
like midsummer to the resident of the
average northern cline.

Having lived many years within the
Arctic circle, Mr. Travers naturalIyr
turned to cold weather sports while in
the western metropolis. The long
stretches of ice on Lake Michigan at
tracted him and, after much study OF
his motor car and mechanical contrfv-
ances for cross-cOuntry travel, he
evolved what he christened the "OEer-
landseaski." The wheels had been re-
moved from the car and their places
taken by a pair of specially constructed
skis A special train of gears con-
nected the drive-shaft to an aerOplane
propeller mounted above the rear seat.
When the engine was started, this pro-
peller was turned at great speed and
the reconstructed car was driven across
the ice faster than it had ever been
been run on land. Mr.. Travers enter
tanned many Of his friends with dashes
up and down the lake shore, and the
strange looking vehicle became the
most popular vehicle in Chicago.

After having spent during the last II

counties of the state, Colorado is this
year preparing to take care Of a greater
number Of tourists than has ever before
come to the state in search Of rest and
recreation in the mountains
There is now no part Of the state
that cannot be easliy reached by auto
mobile, thus insuring visitors free travel
of all parts of the Rockies
The Colorado Good Roads association
is again this year maintaining head
quarters in the chamber Of commerce
IN Denver in order to furnish infOrma-
ton to visitors and likewise to those
intending to visit Colorado, regarding
the roads of the various sections of the
Rockies and accommodations offered
for tourists. Last year hundreds of
parties spent their vacations in the
mountains and instead of seeking no
tells, camped out in the open. The state
highway commission is endeavOring to
foster such vacation plans, and camp
ers will find a hearty welcome in Colo
RADIO.
The various local organizations such
as the Denver Motor club, the Colorado
Springs Motor club and kindred assO-
Citations in Pueblo, Canon City, Trinidad
and GlenwOOd Springs and elsewhere
are also aiding in the work of prepar-
ing the roads Of this state for travel
ers. Signs have been posted, new logs
taken and road maps corrected. The
Denver Motor club also receives daily
reports from all sections Of the state
as to the condition of the roads and
this information is at the disposal of
Colorado tourists.
Tourists in Colorado this year viii
not be required to secure automobile
licenses or pay a tax of any kind for
the first three months they are in the
state. The new automobile license law
provides that visiting cars, bearing
their home license tag, need not take
out license in Colorado for a period
of 80 days. Before this law was
passed visitors were obliged to take out
a visitors license in the Colorado cities
and towns in which they tarried. This
is no longer necessary.

is now in the fifth year of its existence

every car, as soon as built is shipped to
a waiting agent. There is no storage
room at the factory, for there isn't any

has its hands more than full to build
enough cars to supply the demand.
The fact is that despite the unpre-
cedented production during March, the
close of the month saw the factory
still many thousands of cars behind the
sales department. An idea OF the de-
mand for FOrds may be obtained when
it is stated that on a single day early
