looked puzzled and asked, whats the

smile She felt recklessly inclined to
go On and tell him what she really
thought about it.

frankly, 'but it's darn good car. Shall

mo, thanks, I'm not going out to-
day" She still fingered, however, as if
she were not quite sure of her decision.
Suddenly she remembered something
she had wanted, and forgetting every
thing else, she asked eagerly, DO you
know where could get dog?"
This time the astonishment on Sans
tanned face was so unnlistakable that
Joyce realized that she had at last
really surprised him.
"But gee, Mrs. Packard | thought
you didn't like dogs" he exclaimed
well, I've changed my mind re-
turned Joyce, embarrassment making
her speak so shortly that Sam seemed
to take her answer as a rebuke.
"Well, | don't know exactly what |
do want" said Joyce uncomfortably,
wishing she had given the matter more
thought before getting into it this way.

and pick out something you like? sug-
gested Sam after q moment. ~

"Oh, yes, do" said Joyce. ''Do you

Il don't think they'll take any money.

Get him as soon as you can, will

gratefully. I'm crazy to see him. Now

"Sure, I'll go right away, Mrs.
Packard I was just going to drive
down to get the days orders"
Joyce wished she might ride with
him while he did his errands but realiz-
ing the inadvisability of such an outing
she turned away reluctantly and went
back to the house where she found that
| the morning mail had arrived She
sorted out the ones addressed to "Mrs
Neil Packard" and carried them down
to the far end of the garden to Sc
cluded corner hidden from the house.

''Too much fervorw rnurmured
Joyce critically. She felt only dc
tached sort OF disgust, as if she were
reading a vulgar love letter addressed
to another. She shook the letter impa
tiently. "All your fine passion is wasted
on me, Mr. Maitland!' she SAID aloud.
| well, let's see what else ] have
here? After Mats passionate conpo-
sition everything else will seem tame !"
The next letter made her sit up with
a jerk. There was no address, and
Joyce hastily turned the envelope over
aud examined the post mark curiously.
New York, N. "" she finally made
out
In an angular, precise handwriting,
in pale ink the astonishing letter read ::
my dear Florence: Although you
seem to lack interest i'll hearing about
the baby, I feel it no less than my
duty to keep you informed OF her
health. She is most engaging little
mite, showing, even at her tender age,

important, more satisfying, than the
care and bringing up of this dear little
baby. I will send you few lines each
month. Please extend my faithful
greeting to Neil. Sophie"
| Spellbound, Joyce read this letter,
which flowed along without single
paragraph to break its smooth stilted
sentences. The significance of it's con-
tents came as such an unexpected blow
that she felt weak and shaken.
"a baby! 1t can't be true!

Frills have had baby in that time
Let me see, yes, it could have happened
the baby could by now be as much
as five or six months old Oh
dear, Oh dear, to think of me having

! She sat and read the letter again
and again trying to realize the incred-
ible fact that she, Joyce Ashton, was
a mother.
| Joyce glanced up and saw a man
coming down the path toward her. She
took deep breath to restore her cour-
age and looked him over with sur
prising calm as she hastily put the
letters aside.

RECE|VERSH|P LAW
BOOMS TAX FUNDS
Chicago Property Owners
Pay Back Assessments
to Avoid New Act.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 2o-Chicago tax
collecting officials say they have proof
that it pays to put teeth" into pro-
visions for collection Of real estate
taxes
Payments on long past due Cook
County taxes, they assert, have trebled
since passage Of an act which threat
ems public receivership for properties
on which tax payments have been de-
faulted.
This measure. known as the Kerner-
Skarda bill was passed by the 1lli-
nois Legislature this Spring. Under its
terms suits for public receivership may
delinquent properties.
Collections Increase.
Once the county treasurer is named
receiver, he may collect all rent or
other income from the property until
the tax bill is satisfied.
AS a result, says County Treasurer
Joseph B. McDonough, collection Of
taxes for 1928, 1929 and 1880 has be-
come three times as large as before
the bill became effective.
His figures show that only S3,065, ,698
was collected for those three years in
the 81 days before enforcement Of the
Skarda bill was begun. and Sl0,269,4 ,464
in the 81 days thereafter.
More than S150,O00,000. however, re-
mains to be collected for those three
years-over S19,0OO,000 for $1928. $50
100000 for 1929 and $81 100000 for
1880.
Scores Of property owners have be-
gun payment of delinquent taxes to
avoid appointment of receivers. Under
a companion measure to the Skarda
act, rs per cent of q given tax bill
must be paid before q protest may be
heard This IS per cent, however, may
be paid in installments.
Affects 1881 Taxes.
Although 1881 taxes are not affected
by provisions Of the Skarda act, its
psychological" effect has been such
that tax collections for that year have
spurted ahead under its influence. More
than S8,00O,000 was paid in the first
five weeks after the Skarda bill became
effective
In one hearing before the Cook
County Court delinquent taxes were
collected at the rate Of more than
1000 a minute. Property owners, dur
ing a half hours session, paid a total
of S34,6 ,684 to avoid appointment Of re-
ceiverS.
From 80 to so suits asking appoint
ment of receivers for various tax-de-
linquent properties have been filed
daily in recent weeks by counsel for
the county treasurer.

BRAZILIAN URGES
WOMEN FOR ARMY
GneraI Believes Service
Logically Follows Grant
ing of Suffrage.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RIO DE JANEIRO.-Military service
for women and other proposals of Gen.
Pedro de Goes Monteiro have made the
national defense clauses among the
most hotly debated items before Brazil's
Constitutional Commission.
Suggestions of Gen Goes Monteirc,
the army's representative on the COM
mission, would give constitutional au-
thority for obligatory service of women
in non-combative branches of the mill
tary service in case of national emer-
geI1cy.
Should Be Willing.
Inasmuch as women have clamored
for, and received, suffrage, the general
argues, they should be willing to serve
in clerical, transportation, nursing
and provisioning services.
The proposal has met almost unified
opposition from feminists, who will vote
for the first time in Brazil in the Con-
Stituent Assembly elections next May.
Gen. Goes MonteiTo also would make
all men up to so years available for
obligatory non-combative service in
emergencies.
Wants Federal Control.
The general also has insisted that
the new constitution provide for strict
federal control of the various state
forcas publica state militarized police)
These forces, virtually state armies,
some of them equipped with artillery
and airplaneS have been leading fac
tors in revolutions and civil wars and
a state executive could, with the aid of
his forca publica, defy the federal gov
ernment.
In the recent civil war the Sac Paulo
forca publica was the most effective
fighting force for, the rebels until,
deeming further warfare useless, it
reached an agreement with the fed
erals and forced peace.
