The housekeeper sat down beside
the bed. Rowena looked very young,
very flushed, altogether adorable in
her soft night things. In che dim
light the housekeeper could not see
how old they were, and worn. The
housekeeper had her own opinion
about men anyhow, and her face
grew grimmer and grimmer. The
night housekeeper in big hotel sees
much.
When Rowena seemed to have
dropped off to sleep, she leaned over
her commiseratingly. "Poor child"
she muttered, "a pretty young thing
like that.-Him out all night and

Rowena smiled comfortably to her
self when the housekeeper had turned
out the light and tip-toed softly from
the room. She had witness to the
virginia. privacy of her night in the
bridal suite
Rowcna was about half through
breakfast the next morning when
Peter came in He sat down opposite
her and the waitress almost ran Up
to get the order But Peter said he
already breakfasted, would take only
coffee, very hot, please.
"She's entirely too good for him,
the brute" said the waitress to the
pastry cook. "She never said word
but Good morning Didn't even
ask him where he'd been all night"
Peter was little self-conscious
about it all and to the critical maids
his constraint seemed that of guilty
gentle, even friendly.
Il only wish the hotel had given
them a pearl necklace instead of that
cocktail shaker" said Mr. Meeker
regretfully "She'd get to wear the
pearl necklace if he didn't pawn it,
and it's plain to see who'll use the
cocktail shaker"
Peter had the receipt for his nights
lodging and Rowena folded it away
triumphantly in the pocket of her
portfolio, along with the other proofs
of their complete segregation ell
route
She was full of enthusiasm, entire
1y satisfied with their future pros

before the witness of an open door.

everything.

j. Nj. Del Curto Points Out
Many Advantages From
Green Fruit Law

HARLINGEN, May 30.-A number
OF advantages may be expected 70
accrue to the Valley from the a.
mended green citrus fruit law pass
ed recently by the legislature and
signed by Gov. r. S. Sterling Thurs
day, according 70 J.. N. Del Curto
Of the state department cf agricul-
ture.
One nf the amendments provides
for orchard inspection rather than
shipping shed inspection. This is eX-
pected to have the advantage OF pre-
venting farmers from picking green
fruit. Under the old law. farmers
unwittingly picked green fruit but
they had no certain way Of deer
mining whether il vas ripe until
tests were made at the shed.
Under the amendment the inspec-
tors will test the small sizes first
and continue to test larger sizes
until they find one that will pass.
Then clearance papers will be issued
ca fruit Of that size and larger.
Additional regulations may be put
in effect al option Of the depart
ment Of agriculture. This flexible
provision will enable the commits
sioner of agriculture to meet vary
ing conditions which NAV arise dur
ing the course OF a session.
