TARZAN 1 of THE APES By EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS

BEGIN HERE After the death in 1890 of John Clayton, Lord Greystoke. and his wife. Lady Aliee. in the African jungles. a mother ape steals their infant son Tarzan and places her own dead babe in the eradle. At 18 years Tarzau has learned to read English books in his fathers cabin, but, can speak only ape language. He finds his father’s photo, diary and a locket. As the diary is in French Tarzan does not learn the riddle of his strange ..life. A ship bearing white passengers anchors near-by. Tarzan saves the lives of William Cecil Clayton, son of the then Lord Greystoke: his companion, Jane Porter, and her colored maid. Esmeralda. Prof. Achimedes Q. Porter, Jane’s father, and his secretary, Samuel J. Philander, bury the skeletons found in the cabin and notice the tiny one is not human. They ascertain from a crest ring and John Clayton’s name in his books that the bones are of Lord and Lady Greystoke. Tarzan reads a letter written by Jane saying her father borrowed SIO,OOO from Robert Canler and went in search of buried treasure. After finding it the sailors, mutiny and leave Jane and her father in Africa. Half starved survivors of the Arrow tell Professor Porter where they hid the chest, but ho'falls to find it. Tarzan has exhumed and reburied it Jane is stolen by an ape. Signal fires bring a rescue boat and the crew, headed by Lieut. D’Arnot. search for her. Jane embraces Tarzan ardently when he kills the ape to save her. Tarzan secretly rescues D’Arnot from savages. His men • return without him. Tarzan nurses D’Arnot and communicaies with him by writing on bark. D’Amot teaches Tarzan to speak French. When the two return to the cabin the entire party has sailed. Jane leaves a note for Tarzan. Her departure hurts him, deeply. Tarzan’s finger prints are taken to be ocmpaced with the infant's in the diary. He sails for America leaving D’Amot and the treasure chest in Paris. GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXVII The Giant Again A taxicab drew up before an oldfashioned residence upon the outskirts of Baltimore. A man of about forty, well built and with strong, regular features, stepped out, and paying the chauffeur dismissed him. A moment later the passenger was entering the library of the old home. “All, Mr. Canler!" exclaimed an old man, rising to greet him. "Good evening, my dear Professor,” cried the man, extending a cordial hand, “Who admitted you?” ‘ asked the professor. “Esmeralda.” "Then she will acquaint Jane with the fact that you are here,*’ said the old man. “No, Professor,” replied Canler, “For I came primarily to see you.” “Ah, I am honored,” said Professor Porter. "Professor,” continued Robert Canler, with great deliberation, as though carefully weighing his words, “I have come (his evening to speak with you about Jane. “You know my aspirations, and you have been generous enough to approve my suit.” “But Jane,” continued Canler, “I cannot understand her. She puts me off first on one ground and then another. I have always the feeling that she breathes a sigh of relief every time I bid her good-by.” “Tut—tut,” said Professor Porter. “Tut—tut, Mr. Canler. Jane Is a most obedient daughter. She will do precisely as I tell her.” > “Then I can still count on your support?” asked Canler, a tone of relief marking his voice. (

EAT NO SWEETS IF TOO ARE RHEUMATIC 'Rheumatism is no respecter of age, sex, color or rank. If not the most dangerous of human afflictions it is one of the most painful. Those subject to rheumatism should eat no sweets for awhile, dress as warmly as possible, avoid any undue exposure and above all, drink lots of pure water. Rheumatism is caused by uric acid or body waste matter, and is often generated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this poison from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing tj>e blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do douJble work; they become whak and Sluggish and fail to eliminate this toWc acid, which keeps accumulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and causing stiffness, soreness and paid, called rheumatism. ~ At the 'first twingeDf rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Salts; put a tablespoonful in glass of water and drink before breakfast each morning for a week. This is helpful to neutralize acidity, remove waste and stimulate the kidneys, thus helping to rid the blood of these rheumatic poisons. Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid o ( grapes and lemdn juice, combined with lithia, and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who art subject to rheumatism.—Advertisement.

! Famous Old Recipe | tor Cough Syrup | 1 Easily and cheaply made at home',' ® but it bests them all for ® quick reeulta.

Thousands of housewives have found that they can save two-thirds of the money usually spent sos cough prepa-' rations, by using this well-known old recipe for making cough syrup. It is simple and cheap, but it has no eqnal for prompt results. It takes right hold of a cough and gives immediate relief, usually stopping an ordinary cough in 34 hours or less. Get 2*4 ounces of Pinex from any druggist, pour it into a pint bottle, and add plain granulated sugar syrup to make a full pint. If yon prefer, use clarified/ molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it tastes good, keeps perfectly, and lasts a family a long time. It’s truly astonishing how quickly it acts, penetrating through every air passage of the throat and Inngs—loosens and raises hte phlegm, soothes and heals the membranes, and gradually bnt surely the annoying throat n.-kie and dreaded cough disappear en;irely. Nothing better for bronchitis, >pasmodie croup or hoarseness. Pinex is a special and highly concentrated compound of 'genuine Norway: Pine extract known the world over for Its healing effect on membranes. Avoid disappointment by asking your druggist for ‘-2% ounces of Pinex” with full directions and don’t cyt anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction or monev romptly refunded.

"Certainly, sir; certainly, sir,” exclaimed Professor Porter. “How could you doubt it?” .“There is young Clayton, you know,” suggested Canler. “He has been hanging aboift for months. “I don’t know that Jane cares for him; but beside his title they say he has Inherited a very considerable estate from his father, and it might not be strange, if he finally won her, unless—” and Canler paused. “T.ut —tut, Mr. Canler; unless—what?” "Unless, you see fit to request that Jane and I be married at once,” said Canler, slowly and distinctly. “I have already suggested to Jane that it would be desirable,” said Professor Porter sadly, “for we can no longer afford to keep" up this house, and live as her associations demand.” “What was her reply?” asked Cauler. “She said she was not ready to marry any one yet,” replied Professor Porter, “and that we could go and live upon the farm In northern Wisconsin which -her mother left her. "She is planning on our going up there the first of the week., Philander and Mr. Clayton have already gone to get things in readiness for us.” “Clayton has gone there?” exclaimed Canler, visibly chagrined. “Why was not I told? I would gladly have gone and seen that every comfort was provided." “Jane feels that we are already too much in your debt, Mr. Canler,” said Professor Porter. Canler was about to reply, when the sound of footsteps came from the hall without, and Jane Porter entered the room. "Oh, I beg your pardon!” she exclaimed. pausing on the threshold. “I thought you were alone, papa,” “It. is only I. Jane,” said Canler, who had risen, “won’t you come in and join the family group? We were just speaking of you.” “Thank you,” said Jane Porter, entering and taking the chair Canler placed for her. "I only wanted to tell papa that Tobey Is coming down from the college tomorrow to pack his books. “Was Tobey here?” asked Professor Porter. “Yes.” “Tut—tut, I must see him at once!” cried the professor. “Excuse me just a moment, children.” As soon as he was out of earshot Canler turned to Jane Porter. “See here, Jane,” he bluntly. "How long is this thing* going on like this,” “You haven’t refused to marry me, but you haven’t promised either. “I want to get the license tomorrow, so that we can be married quietly before you leave for Wisconsin. I don’t care for any fuss or feathers, and I’m sure don’t either.” “Your father wishes It, you know,” added Canler. “Yes, I know.” She spoke scarcely above a whisper. “Do you, realize that you are buying me, Mr. Canler?” she said finally, and in a cold, level voice. "Buying me for a few paltry dollars? Os course you do, Robert # Canler, and the hope of just such a , contingency was in your mind when you loaned papa the money for that hair-brained escapade, which but for a most mysterious circumstance would have been surprisingly successful. “But you, Mr. Canler, would have been the most surprised. You .had no idea that the venture would succeed. You are too good a business man for that. “You knew that without security you had a greater hold on the honqr of the Porters than with it. You knew the one best way to force me to marry you, without seeming to force me. “I shall certainly marry you if there is o other way, but let us understand'each other once and for all.” “You surprise me, Jane. I thought you had more self control —more pride. “Os course you are right. I am buying you, and I knew that you knew it, but I thought you wouldprefer to pretend that It was otherwise. “But have it your own way, dear girl,” he added lightly. “I am going to have you, and tliatHs all that interests me.” Without a word the girl turned and left the room. Jane Porter -was not married before she left with her father and Esmerelda for her little Wisconsin farm, and as she poldly bid Robert Canler goodby as her train pulled out. he called to her that he wo*ld join them in a week or two. At their destination they were met by Clayton and Mr. Philander in a huge touring car belonging to the former, and quickly whirled away through the dense northern woods toward the little farm which the girl had not visited before since childhood. The farmhouse, which stood oh a little elevation some hundred yards from the tenant house, had undergone a complete transformation, during the three weeks that Clayton artd Mr. Philander had been there. 4 !Why, Mr. Clayton, what have you done?” cried Jane Porter, her heart sinking within her as she realised the probable size of the expenditure that had been made. "S-Sh," cautioned Clayton. "Don’t let yopr father guess. If you don’t tell hiffi he will never notice, and I simply couldn’t think of him living in the terrible squalor and sordidness whlph, Mr. Philander and I found. It jyas so little when 4 would do so much,, Jan®- For hte sake, please, never mention It." ■ “But rg\x know that we can’t repay cried the girl. “Why do you want to put me under such terrible obligations?” "Don’t, Jane,” said Clayton sadly. “If It had been just you, believe me, I wouldn’t hav® done it, for I knew from the start that it wpbt< only hurt me in your eyes, but couldn’t think of that dear old ’ living in the hole we found hei * Won t you please believe that I

“I do believe you, Mr. Clayton,” said the girl, “and, oh Cecil, I wish I might repay you as ydu deserve — as you would wish.” “Why can’t you, Jane?” ‘Because I love another." “Canler?” “No.” “But you are going to marry him. He told me as much before I left Baltimore.” i ' The girl winced. *‘l do not love him,” she said, almost proudly. “Is it because of the money, Jane?” She nodded. "Then am I so much less desirable than Canler? I have money enough, and far more, for every need,” he said bitterly. “I do not love you, Cecil,” she said, “but I respect you. If I must disgrace myself by such a bargain with any man, I prefer that It be one I already despise. I should loathe the man to whom I sold myself without love, whomsoever he might be. "You will be happier,” she concluded, “alone —with my respect and friendship, than with me and my contempt.” He did not press the matter further, but if ever a man had murder in his heart it was William Cecil Clayton, Lord Greystoke, when, a week later, Robert Canler drew up before the farmhouse in his purring six cylinder. Canler was Insistent that Jane marry him at once. At length she gave In from sheer loathing of the continued and hateful importuning. It was agreed that on the morrow Canler was to drive to town and bring back the license and a minister. Clayton had wanted to leave as. soon as the plan was announced, but the girl’s tired, hopeless look kept him. He could not desert her. Early the next morning Canler set out for town. In the east smoke could be seen lying low over the forest, for a fire had been raging for a week not far from them, but the wind still lay In the west and no danger threatened them. About noon Jane Porter started off for a walk. She would not let ’ayton accompany her. She wantto be alone, she said, and he reected her wishes. In the house Professor Porter and Mr. Philander were immersed in an absorbing discussion of.some weighty scientific problem. Esmeralda dozed in the kitchen and Clayton, heavy-

eyed after a sleepless night, threw himself down upon the couch in the living room and soon dropped into a fitful slumber. To the eas; the black smoke clouds rose higher into the heavens, suddenly they eddied, and then commenced to drift rapidly toward the west. Soon the flames had spanned the road to the south and cut off Canler’s return. Suddenly, out of the north-east, a great black car came careening down the road. With a jolt It stopped before the cottage, and a black haired giant leaped out to run up onto the porch. Without a pause he rushed into the house. On the couch lay Clayton. The man started in surprise, but with a bound was at the side of the sleeping man. Shaking him roughly by the shou'der, he cried: “My God, Clayton, are you all mad here? Don’t you know you are nearly surrounded by fire? Where is Miss Porter?” Clayton sprang to his; feet. Ho did not recognize the man, but he understood the words and was upon the veranda in a bound. “Scott!” he cried, and then, dashing back Into the house, “Jane! Jane! where are you?” In an Instant Esmeralda, Professor Porter and Mr. Philander had joined the two men. Copyright, A. C. McClurg & Cos., 1914. (Continued in Next Issue) -
