But then she wasn't married to him.
Lila returned shortly afterward,
penitent and loving. Herbert read
her a lecture on her frivolous ways
and ended with a warning against
Dorothy Game.
Perched on the arm of his chair,
her lips against his cheek, Lila was
adorably docile.
Herbert let the matter rest with

Lila each day became more low

the hour day she allowed Jack to
see her.

One last remnant Of coherent
thought was left to Crystal: II
haven't said yes But I can't help
it if he thinks will-"Then she did
not think for q long while, for
Pablo's arms were so thrillingly
tight about her, Pablo's adoring,
possessive lips continually coming
back to claim hers.
At last the Mexican boy threw
back his head triumphantly. MY
mother-you will love her, beloved.
She is married now-oh, very nice,
very fine man.
"She no marry my father, as tell
YOU. My father very splendid Span
ish gentlemen from Seville. He al
ready have lady-wife in Spain. But
my mother very fine Mexican wom-
an, very good mother"
Crystal had a sudden clairvoyant
picture of herself being greeted by
a fat, dark-brown Mexican woman,
who Immediately afterwards piled
her with queer foods-tortillas,
enchiladas, chile con carne, strange
dishes of which Pablo had told her
longingly.
pablo" she asked at last,
iealously "have you ever loved
another girl? Isn't there perhaps a
little muchacha in Mexico City?"
To her CONSERVATION, for she had
asked the question almost idly, for
loverly reinsurance, the boys arms
went a little lax.
There is another grill You have
got sweetheart in Mexicol" Crystal
cried, trying to draw out of his
arms.

little too late. pablo never love

knowing at last the full agony Of
jealousy. She forgot, for the mo-
ment, that she could not marry

ly. But when she see you, my
mother very happy. Pablo make
marriage with high-born lady from
Estados Unidos. My mother will
love"
Curiously, considering that she
had been so happy-while not think
ing-Crystal felt desire to quarrel
violently with this alien boy whom
she loved and who loved her.
Words poured out in torrent,
words which she knew Pablo did not
half understand. He had deceived
her, she charged; ne was already
promised to another girl, a girl
whose heart would be broken if he
married an American girl; he should
be ashamed of himself
Crystal struggled out of his en-
circling arm and sprang to her feet
go back to your Mexican mucha-
cha!" she stormed.
Pablo struggled to his feet, came
toward her, but she was already in
flight. "Querida mia! Pobrecita
Pablo love"
His despairing cry followed the
Aeet-footed girl as she sped across
the meadow toward the interur-
pan station. Once she looked back,
half fearfully, half hopefully.
The early moon, breaking out of
Scudding clouds, showed her the tall,
splendid body of her Mexican sweet
heart, walking toward her-not
running to catch up. The scarlet,
purple and black satin of the torea-
dor costume he had bought and
worn to amuse and please her
caught the moonlight shilnmeringly
He was not going to try to over
take her, she knew; he was merely
following her to protect her from

tears began to stream blindingly
She hesitated, then made the most
momentous decision Of her life.

Obstruction Of
Windshields an
Offence
(By Carter Wormeley)

Richmond, Va, Sept. l.
Director James M. Hayes, of
the Division of Motor Vehicles,
desires to call attention to sec
ton 48 of the motor vehicle
laws which prohibit the driving
with any sign, poster or other
non-transparent materila upon
the front windshield, side
wings or rear windows. For
fear this section may be viol-
ated by motorists not aware of
the law the director calls part
ocular attention to it at this
time in view of the present nat
ional campaign. There is moth
ing in the law in reference to
using booster plates, so long as
these do not obstruct the reg
ular license plates.
AS there seems to be much
misapprehension or misunder
standing in reference to the or
der issued by the Director of
Motor Vehicles to the traffic
men in reference to breaking up
the practice of crowding the
front seat with three or more
persons, the Director desires to
call attention to Section 3, Par
Chapter Ala Acts 1926 as a.
mended which makes it an Of
tense, to-wit, reckless driving,
for any one to drive a car when
not under complete control.
Every one should know that
they cannot control a car when
they are so crowded, due to the
fact they cannot reach the
brake or gear shift. levers, nor
can they handle the steering
wheel should emergency arise.
In the vast number of acct
dents which the Department
has investigated, certainly in
most of the fatal ones, it has
been disclosed that the driver
could not handle the car in the
emergency, due to being crowd
ed by two or more in the seat
with him. ~
The Director issued these in
structions to the men in an eff
fort to save lives, and he be-
| lieves if the drivers will cooper
ate to this extent a marked i'm
provement will be shown in
the number of fatal accideits,
certainly vast number of
machines will be saved from
the junk heap. = sS''a3.'-

les of disaster, not only to the
person himself but to everyone
in the vicinity, that l feel it is
my duty to leave nothing un-
done that will impress on the
people the seriousness of the
matter. | know of no more eff

ed favorably on an application
of this kind and I am forced to
decline the application which
you have made"

Roanoke, Aug. 30.-Kann's
Inc, ladies ready-to-wear store
at so West Campbell ave., was
broken into shortly before one
O'Clock this morning and goods
said to be valued at more than
5000 were stolen.
A short time later, Mack
Boddie, colored, was arrested
after an exciting chase in the
business district and the goods
recovered. Boddie was jailed on
charges of housebreaking and
larceny. ssss
The negro was sighted walk
ing hastily along North Jeffer-
son street, between Campbell
and Salem avenues, about II:
o'clock by Patrolman H. L.
Stanley. The officer noticed the
large quantity of goods hang
ing across the negro's arm and
when the latter saw the officer
he turned and fled west on
Campbell avenue, it was stated.
Officer Gives Chase
Boddie dashed up the stair
way leading to the second floor
of the Western Union and as
the officer started up the stairs,
the coats, dresses and boxes of
wearing apparel were thrown
at him, he said. The negro con
tinued to the third floor where
he sought to hide, but was
soon taken into custody.
At headquarters he denied
having stolen anything, even
when confronted with a large
box containing the loot.
Officer Stanley's swiftness
as runner has on many oc-
casions enabled him to outdis-
lance violaters, and the many
Instances of this kind have
gained for him the reputation
Of being the best runner on the
