"You love your self too much, my dear.” He shrank from her touch. “Per haps if you had had faith in me!” She 4\©ok her head. "That’s the plea of weakness. Drew. A strong man has faith in himself." After > heavy silence, he said: “It Remains for me, therefore, to go ele gantly to the—devil —” ' “Don’t be an idiot." "1 npiglit marry Rose." “If you do, we part company.

I might as Well get out as soon as possible." “Where will you go?” “Back tc. New York. You can stay for a bit in Paris.” “You mean that we are—to part company?" “For a time, old girl," he put his arm about her, “I am best by my jetf.” Nancy said, softly, "Is it going as bard with you as that?" “Y'es,” he stood staring at the floor "I love her—and I’ve lost her."

"What happened?" “The engagement," said Drew, with an attempt at lightness, “is off. I have been discovered. Rose, as a wolf ip sheep’s clothing. The lamb has—fled.” That afternoon, as they motored back to Barcelona, Drew told Rose more about it. "I have always had a feeling it would end this way. I apt not made for happiness.” "You would never have been happy with Joan." "I shall never forget her " Rose did not answer. Her eyes were on the distant mountain peaks. She would make him forget Joan. She would have to play a careful game. But she felt that she held a winning hand. In Paris, Nancy and the Carters parted company. “Rose will trail Drew back to New York.” Nancy surmised, shrewdly, “she knows what she wants, and she intends to get it." Nancy, in the days that followed. Was lonely. She had found a room in a cheap pension and kept out of sight as much as possible* Now and then, however, some of her friends carried her off to dine with them, and it.happened that on one of these occasions she-was entertained at the big hotel where Giles Armiger was stopping. Giles was dining that night with the English ’ officer. Alan Vincent, who had told him of Drew’s past. He saw Nancy come in. and won dered what had become of her brother. Vincent had offered congratula tions: “I read in the London paper that Hallam’s engagement is broken. Did you have anything to do with it?” “I made him tell Miss Dudley the truth.” “Hqw dpi ta>ke it?” a bit. and then we cpipe to blows —. It seemed a bit beastly to fight over a girl like Joan. But he brought it on himself.” “Did you see her?" Vincent asked. "No.” "Why not?” “I accomplished what I went for. I can wait for the rest.” He said nothing of his promise to Drew. That was between the two of them. He had agreed to Hallam’s terms to save Joan. Whether he had saved her for himself had nothing to do with it. It was her happiness Which counted. “She has gone back to New York," he told Vincent, “and Hallam has disappeared . . . His creditors are after him.” “Where’s his sister?" “In Paris..” Alan lighted a clgaret, “I knew her — years ago. There's something rather .fine about her, Armiger. She has had a hard life, but she sees straight, which is more than Drew does. He has been a great drag upon her." He was silent for a mo ment, then confessed, “There was a time when I thought a-lot of her. But I couldn’t stand Hallam, and she always fought for him, defended him and refused to leave him. That ended things between us. I haven’t seen her for years.” “If you will look across the dining room,” Giles said, "to that table in the corner, you’ll see her now.” “You don t mean?" Alan ejacu lated. “Yes, in the green and silver, with that vivid hair.” Alan turned, "She hasn’t changed," he said, after a moment, “she’s the same old Nancy, spectacular, start ling; glad to have eyes on her.” He left it at that, and they talked (Copyright im, bg Central Prsee) ~OUR YESTERDAYS Mary Garden, Noted Opera Singer, Who Became Favorite at Her Debut MB OHF EUf < .j- BmW ■ j n flPlflL 1K& 1 K ■ f V'IIMM * Ewflfll ♦V. ■ 1 Iwflß- MMk ■ ■KMBr flp h* r amou * role of “Salome. * fl B " ■ Ji iifl /da sk\ CJI I mg teWvW Mary Garden at height of her career. ’ n *•*!• role of “Thais.* . r cesßM - Miss Gan, ‘ n ■"** debut of a 2S v«»r * a h « er first a P» e *rance in the United ip ” no y T^ s Z"; f“"’ h *•< «“V “ arV Oarda "' An.eSa; 6^:' 1 ““‘X™ «»t'n«u eco,^„ th ‘ G :x. 0 ' Ab ' r,i " !

And the next day she sat opposite him, very handsome in black, with a close . green hat, and an emerald at her throat. “You have changed,” he said. "When I saw you in the dining room I thought you had not. But you are —better-looking, Nancy.” She laughed, “How like you that sounds. You always made me feel so comfortable. Alan." “I am not saying it to make you comfortable. Years ago you were > attractive but now you are rather— splendid.” . ... * . * She liked that. It seemed to her incredible that she should be sitting this pleasant fashion to the man she had once adored. He had not known she adored him. He had hated Drew, and she had had, of course, to stick to Drew. And that had ended it. She found herself confiding in Vin cent: “There's nothing very pleas ant ahead of me at the moment. I don't know whether you have fol lowed Drew’s romance. But it blew up suddenly the other day. He was to have married a very rich girl, but they broke the engagement by mutual consent. It leaves us rather at loose ends —” He was aware of a weariness, a sadness, which was most appealing She had always seemed so self-sufficient, almost un feminine in her independence. » "Marriage would have meant a lot to Drew," she went on. “I had hoped that with a girl like Joan Dudley he would settle down. And I would have a bit of life of my own. You see. I’ve always had him on my mind,” she gave a hard little laugh, "we are a mercenary pair, Alan, and Joan’s money would have helped.” “You are not as mercenary as ypu think, Nancy. You have linked your strength always with Drew’s weak ness and they won’t balance. I told you that years ago. You could not lift him up—and he would ultimate ly drag you to his own level.” “Don't,” she begged, in a shaking voice, “he’s down and out —and un happy.” “I see,” with a sudden impulsive gesture, he laid his hand over hers, "I can’t tell you how sorry I am that you should suffer.” There were tears in her eyes, “Thank you,” she said, simply, “It’s a great help to have you—sorry.” It was late when they parted, apd Vincent had the address of the cheap pension in his pocket. "There's no reason why we shouldn’t see some thing of each other, is there?" he asked. “I am going on to London to night, but I’ll be back in a week and I hope that you’ll dine with me here.” She promised. He put her in a taxi, and the next morning, flowers came from him—red roses and white heather. Long he had sent her flowers like that. The ice around her heart melted a little. She was glad to feel that he wtu again her friend. (TO RE CONTINUED) Friendless And Forgotten Prisoners Have Their Day Daily Dispatch Bareaa lu iur sir Waiter Hute*. BY J. « BASK.HHV" L. Raleigh, Aug. 9. —There may have been frinedless and forgotton prison ers in the State Prison system |n the past, with no friends and no rela tives to intercede for them in seeking paroles. But these prisoners are friendless and forgotten ,no longer. Commissioner of Paroles Edwin M. Gill for the past year or more has been making a systematic nivestiga tion of the records of these so-called “forgotten prisoners” with a view to asking Governor J. C. B. Ehringhaus to parole as many of them as are de serving of clemency. But before Commissioner Gill makes any recommendations for a parole for any prisoner, he is making a thorough investigation into his past life and wherever possible is getting a com plete “case history” of each prison er being considered for parole. It was formerly quite difficult for the coipl missioner of paroles to get anything like a definite or accurate case his tory of a prisoner. But the 1933 Gen eral Assembly gave him authority to call on prison officials and county welfare officers to make investiga tions and secure these case histories Commissioner Gill has made liberal use of this power, he said today, with the result that he has been able to get much valuable information about the past lives of prisoners he has had under consideration for recomntend ing for parole. “Since I have been commissioner of paroles, I have obtained 443 complete case histories of prisonres who have either applied for parole or who have been under consideration for parole,” Commissioner Gill said. “In addition to these 443 complete cas ehistories I have also received many more brief and incomplete reports on prisoners, too numerous to mention. But even these partial reports have been of ma terial assistance in reaching a decision on many cases.” Two things are of primary impor tance in considering a parole for anv prisoner. Gill points out. One is the *»tHtude of the prisoner towards ciety, whether he is vindictive anr* revengeful or whether he is genuine ly penitent and sorrv so” what he has done and is determined to “make Revision of Rules On Sales Tax Levy Helping Maxwell Daily UlNßatcii Baren*. In the Sir Walter Hotel. BY .1. C HASKEHVILL. Raleigh, Aug. 9.—The action taken by Commissioner of Revenue A. J. Mawell in revising th e rules and regu lations of the Department of Reve nue relating to wholesale sales undei the sales tax act is being generally commended here, although most of those who have studied the matter are convinced that under the law, the original regulations could have been’ supported and that merchants could have been compelled to pay the three per cent sales tax on all sales not made for resale. This regulation/ however, would have required all merchants and others to pay three per cent tax on all goods purchased by them for con sumption or use in the conduct of their business, such as string, wrap ping paper and so forth, since these commodities are not, strictly speaking, purchased for resale. However, after hearing groups of both wholesale and retail merchants protesting against the strict enforcement of the letter of the law with regard tp purchases of this sort, Commissioner Maxwell has revised the section of the rules and regulations classifying wholesale sales by manufacturers and wholesale, merchants. The revised regulation is as follows ■■ “Manufacturers and wholesale mer chants selling tangible personal prop erty atw holesale and at wholesale prices, in a manner by established trade practices classified as wholesale business, to purchasers to be utilized or consumed vy such purchasers in carrying on manufacturing, trades, professions, business or building, heat ing or plumbing contracting or in op eration of hotels, cases, office build ings institutions, fleets of motor, ve hicles, etc., are authorized to classify such sales as wholesale and subject to the wholesale rate (of taxation) when sold by| a wholesale merchant, as pro vided in the rules and regulations governing the administratipn of the sales tax. The revised rules and regu lations a4opted ans made effective on August 1, 1,934, are amended accord ingly”. TOBACCO FARMERS USE OLE newspapers under your tobacco in pack houses and 'barns.

The second is whether or not he can find employment, if paroled, and can make a living him self and his family. These “case his tories” obtained from the prison and welfare departments help a great deal in determining these two things, es pecially with regard to prisoners who have no friends or relatives to help them present their cases. It took some time following the ad journment of the 1933 general assem bly to get the new investigation sys tem set up and operating, Gill point ed out, with the result that not as many cases were investigated the first year as he had hoped. But during the next twelve months he hopes to call on the prison and welfare departments for a much larger number of reports on prisoners.- He also expects to get a PARKER'S k DRUG STORE Puretest Glycerine 3 os. 19c 2 for 35c 3 for 50c Glycerine Suppositories Petroleum Hair Rub 39c 2 tor 70c 3 for $1 Rexall Orderlies 6O'» 39c 2 for 70c 3 for $1 Puretest Soda Mint Tablets 14O’> 19c 2 for 35c 3fcr 50c Klenzo Tooth Brushes 19c 2 for 35c 3 for 50c B Cascara Hinkle, No. 3 pink IQO’s Puretect 19c 2 for 35c 3 for 50c KLENZO Bh TINCTURE IODINE Bay Rum, 8 oz. 29c 2forssc 3fa? 75c E‘hf’ s TST TTQQTTF I ■ I L 9 for Puretest Mercurochrome 1 » ca 29c 2 for bbc 3 for Zbc _ Q { I Box ox rri F.
