"Ah, Paycos," breathed Marcelina, gazing up at him with adoring eyes, "you are such a goo-ood man!"

THE END
Transcriber's Note:
- Minor typographical errors have been corrected without note.
- Word combinations that appeared with and without hyphens were changed to the predominant form if it could be determined, or to the hyphenated form if it could not.
- Mid-paragraph illustrations have been moved between paragraphs and some illustrations have been moved closer to the text that references them. The paginations in the list of Illustrations were adjusted accordingly.
- Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant form was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.
- Corrections in the spelling of names were made when those could be verified. Otherwise the variations were left as they were.
- Other corrections:
- Page 51: slahsh changed to slash.
- Page 71: ailes changed to bailes (open house day and night, fistas and bailes).
- Page 284: plead changed to pled (the petty criminals pled guilty).
- Error uncorrected: Page 233: stlong ("make me hip stlong.")
- Variation unchanged: Joe Garcia and José Garcia.
