Irene attempt! to win Prentiss from her sister Baryl becomes 111 and the doctor warns her to stay in bed and guard her throat. Irene meanwhile avoids Tommy and trie* to captivate Prentiss. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO PRENTISS arrived with his arms full of flowers and Mrs. Everett was kept busy for the next half hour Retting them into proper containers Beryl heard his car stop' before the house, but no one came to tell her lie was there. The flowers were placed In the living room. No one thought of taking them up to Beryl, not even Prentiss. Bringing them was only a polite gesture with him. He was thinking of Irene and when she told him that Beryl was resting In her room on the doctor’s orders—oh, no, it war, nothing serious!— he apologized 8 gain for keeping her up so late the night before—and forgot, about Beryl. Prentiss had not been in love since his adolescent days, but he was not in any degree a woman hater. lie had liked Beryl and had found himself wondering on a few occasions if he might not be failing in love with her. He was ready to fall in love, wanted to tall in love. The bugbear of most young men who consider love and matrimony—lack of funds—did not bother him. He had enough money to make any reasonable gill happy as far as money was concerned. He liked and. admired Beryl, had thought for a time that they might care deeply for each other, but this affection had not come. Was he going to be onr' of those persons who never experience it? At times lie was afraid this might be true. And he believed that the greatest thing in life would be missed if one never met an overwhelming passion, never was swept off one’s feet, carried away, submerged. drowned, lost in love. He didn’t want to live like a stuffed dummy. He wanted to fall head over heels in love. If the girl wouldn’t have him—all right—that too would be an experience. What was life without experience? Experiences of all kinds You might as well he dead as to live uneventfully. It was the safne tiling. So thought Prentiss. When he met Irene he knew that he’d met a now experience. Up to that time he hadn't known whether it was true or not true that love sometimes came with first sight. He was falling in love with Irene. But how could he tell her that, without engendering the belief that he was fickle? Hadn’t he been paying rather marked attention to her sister? A nice girl like Irene wouldn’t understand. He’d have to waste time breaking it to her gently that he hadn’t been serious about Beryl. Thank the Lord he hadn’t made love to her! That would complicate matters. A girl as sweet as Irene . . . she’d not want him if she thought it would hurt Beryl. an st S’ IDE by side they rode in the ) black and chromium roadster. He: “Yes, I’ll have to watch my step.” She: “If he wouldn’t be so slow! ” It was that delightful hour near the end of a summer day when the sun retreats before a pale moon and the long shadows fresco the earth. w r hen there is a stillness as though all things stood at attention while the sun sends up its farewell banners of red and gold, purple and blue. Irene and Prentiss were gliding along with their young minds seething with thoughts. They had nothing in common with the serenity of the countryside. It. did not touch them.

Prentiss was thrilled with his thoughts. Now he was awake! Now he was alive I Here was a girl who could prove to him that he'd been sleeping. Habit fastened itself upon him. “Am I an egotist?" he asked himself. “What does thq girl think? Dees she know anything about this pounding in the brain, this powerful urge to take another, a certain, human being in your arms, to know' through the sense of touch an ecstasy that can not be imagined?” He stole a glance at Irene. She was wearing the organdy dress with the dainty ribbon bows (and she still remembered her mother’s expression when she appeared in it). Her mother knew that it was the second dress that had been intended for her wedding. Irene had confined this after Mrs. Hoffman's death. She looked like . . . Prentiss could not say what she looked like. FlowcFlike, yes, but what did exteriors mean? He could not tell from stolen glances at her what was In her mind. And they were driving too last for closer scrutiny. He had in mind a certain Inn to which he would take her to dinner if she would go, ar.d it was far out on the island. He’d suggested the drive with some reluctance, fearing she would think it inconsiderate of Beryl. Irene had sensed his thought and got around it by saying wistfully that site didn't think she should go. Then she left him f6r a moment to instruct her mother to insist that she go. They came back to him together. Mrs. Everett simpered a trifle over her part, but she succeeded in convincing Prentiss that she had persuaded Irene to go out for a while. “She’s been in all day looking after Beryl,” she explained with a fond smile of approval for her daughter. “Thank you, Mrs. Everett," Prentiss said, “but don’t say for a while? I don't like to think of time when I'm enjoying myself.” “Well, not too late, please.” Mrs. Everett conceded, and Prentiss felt as though she had consigned a precious treasure to his care. a a it HE didn’t care much for Mrs. Everett and he’d heard that daughters often were like their mothers. But as he waited for Irene to get her hat and wrap (the latter at his suggestion) he reminded himself that Beryl was not much like Mrs. Everett. It didn’t follow that Irene had to be either, even if there was a closer resemblance between them. Environment would count. Prentiss should have realized that his ability to consider these matters at this time meant that he was not falling in love blindly. The girl he married would not develop as the wife of a small town groceryman. And now, because he was intelligent, he should have realized that this though was not conducive to future happiness. Would he be snobbish about his wifeis family? And didn't he know that if he thought he could make Irene what he wanted her to be—if he feared what she might become—that he did not love her-*-the real Irene—that he saw in her only a reflection of his ideal and loved that reflection? Didn’t he know that when one loves truly ideals are forgotten? .Perhaps a little love is sufficient to muddle a man’s brain. Or it may be that a thinking man—no matter how great his capacity for emotional feeling—can never escape appraising the object of his affection. Also it might be that Prentiss was at that age where one Is both young paid old. Loving with the fervor and zest of youth and analyzing with the caution of age. Whatever it was, as they raced along now over the smooth highway he was eager to reach the place where he could talk to Irene and look at her at the same time. When he told her where he wanted to take her, she was thrilled, but she would not agree to stay out to dinner until he had promised to teleplione her mother. She reasoned shrewdly enough that if Prentiss had admired Beryl, he couldn't be interested in girls
who cared nothing at all for convention, and so she was going to be quite proper with him. m m a SHE knew the inn to which he was taking her—knew that It was frequented by smart society folk—but she'd never been there. She felt very Important when they were bowed through the front door by a waiter in satin livery, and conducted to a table in a semiprivate room, where there was a profusion of flowers and the gleam of old pewter against the patina of old pine. Her dress, made In the new romantic style, had a charming background in this room. She was glad that she had not let Ker skin tan so much this year; it looked so much nicer. She put her arms out before her on the table and herself admired their soft, creamy beauty. Then she dropped them hastily to her lap. Suppose Prentiss noticed! Beneath the tiny, flower-trimmed hat her face was angelically in? nocent, and Prentiss, looking at her, wondered what she would think of the things that were in his mind. How would he dare approach his love making? Irene, glancing shyly at him from under demurely lowered eyelids, wondered about his way with girls. Was he serious or was this just a flirtation he was starting? Well—if it were a flirtation at least she might # get a good time out of it. Something better than going about with Tommy—Tommy, w r ho had no car of his own and could borrow his uncle’s only at rare intervals. But of course, she mustn’t break with Tommy definitely. She wished she had asked her mother not to tell Beryl where she had gone. Beryl did not need to be told. When she heard Prentiss’ car drive away from the house and Irene did not rush upstairs to gloat in one way or another over his visit, she knew. Later she called to her mother, to ask her a question.

TARZAN AND THE GOLDEN LION
An hour later, Jad-bal-ja emerged silfently from the jungle. In his jaws was a torn leopard skin. This he brought and laid at the feet of his master. The ape-man picked it up, examined it and scowled. ‘T believe he killed the wretch after all," he remarked. “We will search for him in the morning. I would like to have the diamonds again." Then he told Jane the strange story connected with his acquisition of the greaf te wealth represented by the little bag of stones from the palace of the gorilla-men.

Next day Tarzan searched in vain. Estaban's trail disappeared in the river and finally Tarzan concluded the imposter had been devoured by crocodiles. 1 That is the end of the man who would be Tarzan,” he exclaimed, flora Hawkes shuddered and burst into tears. “Because of my wickedness, many men have died,” she wailed. “You have paid a heavy price for your folly,” said Jane Clayton. “We will see that you reach England again, for I believe you have learned your lesson.

The three and Jad-bal-ja had been two days on the march toward home, when Tarzan paused, raised his head and sniffed the jungle air. “I sent the Waziri home,” he said with a smile, “but evidently they did not obey me. They are still searching for us.” Soon they encountered them, and great was the rejoicing of the faithful blacks when they found both their master and mistress alive and unset .thed. Greetings over, and Tarzan said;* “Tell me what you did with the gold you took from the camp of the Europeans.”

“We hid it, O Bwana, where you told us," replied Usula. “I was not with you, Usula,” said Tarzan, "it was another who deceived you, a man who so cleverly impersonated me that it is no wonder you were all imposed upon.” Great was the joy of the simple blacks to find it was not their Bwana who had fled from Buto, the rhinoceros, and otherwise disgraced himself.
