Bhe tells Prentiss that Tommy Is In love with Beryl when they come home one night and see Tommy waiting on the porch. Irene stays In the car until Tommy eaves and then goes In and tells "Beryl she Is engaged to Prentiss NOW GO ON WITH THE BTOBY CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT SO that was Irene’s secret! Beryl was speechless for a moment, j Irene engaged to marry Prentiss Gaylord. The younger girl waited for her sister to speak but Beryl only looked at her. Irene wanted Beryl to say something, to show by some sign that she was impressed. She stirred restlessly, but Beryl seemed not to notice. Asa matter of fact she had forgotten Irene, standing there in the doorway. She was thinking of Tommy. • Tommy was free now. And Tommy was broken-hearted! Beryl sank back on her pillows and closed her eyes. “Well," Irene said and her voice betrayed her disappointment, “I wanted to tell you in a sisterly way, but you wouldn’t have it. So I guess you don't care to hear any more." Beryl did not answer. After waiting a little longer, Irene stalked out of the room and went to rouse her mother and tell her the good news. They whispered together, paying no attention to Mr. Everett when he said he wished they’d shut up and let him sleep. Her mother’s excitement made up to Irene for Beryl’s calm acceptance of her important information. Her self-approval was restored, her ruffled feathers smoothed, and she felt once more like a princess in a fairy tale. One of the good princesses. Let Beryl take the news any way she liked! Mentally Irene turned up her nose at the thought of caring about what Beryl might have to say. That was because she didn't guess to whom Beryl would choose to express herself. While Irene discussed with her mother the glory of her new estate. Beryl dressed herself and slipped out of the house. She had to go by way of the front porch roof, but 6he was adept at athletic stunts, so she found sliding down a porch pillar no trouble at all. She hastened as fast as she could straight to the Hoffman house. There she stood a moment, surveyed its darkened windows and considering a course of action. Tommy'd had plenty of time to get home. But had he time to get to bed? No, he couldn’t have gone ter bed. Beryl decided. He wouldn’t be wanting sleep. Was he in the house? Most likely j he was not. Should she sit down somewhere and wait for him? Then ghe reflected that if he were inside she might sit there all night and not see him. She wanted to see him. She was sure that Tommy needed her. Presently she gathered some small stones and tessed them at his window. There was no response except the sound of the stones as they struck lightly against the glass and then fell back to the ground. Beryl walked around the house to the kitchen windows. No light there. Suddenly she shivered. Her feet were wet from the dew-soaked grass, but she did not think of possible consequences to herscV Tommy was somewhere near. It was awfully late for him to be out. Maybe she could get into the house and search for him. a a SHE would not admit it, but she had a vague fear that Tommy might have come to harm. Or he might have gone away.

She seized upon this thought hiingrily. It was so much better than thinking that he might have . . . might have . . . Beryl tried all the outside doors and found them locked. Then in despair she sat down on the front steps and thought about life without Tommy. He might never come back again. There was nothing to hold him to the town. Presently a finger of pink pointed upward in the eastern sky and Beryl realized that day was dawning. Here she was out on the streets, clothed in beach pajamas, and all alone. She might even meet the milkman. He knew her, and Beryl had sense enough to understand that he was likely to put a damaging construction upon the incident. She arose and hurried away, keeping to the shadows of the treelined streets. Getting back to her room w;as not quite so easy as getting away from it had been, but she managed, with a goodly tear in her pajamas and a skinned knee. Quietly she changed to sweater and skirt, and left the house once more. This time she went out | through the kitchen and sat on the back porch. She could not bear to be under a roof closed in by four | walls. It was quiet in the house. Irene must have gone to bed. Beryl could 1 picture her, curled down in the j sheets that their mother had tinted pink for her.* She would be sleeping oh yes, Irene would be sleeping. She was going to marry Prentiss Gaylord. She would want to enjoy her dreams. They must be gorgeous dreams, Beryl thought. Filled with rich and costly things. There’d be no room in them for a boy with hurt eyes and a sag in his young shoulders. It was better out here. The early morning hour belonged to people who wanted to be alone. It belonged to a boy with tears in his heart and a girl with tears in her eyes. The tears ran unchecked down Beryl's cheeks as she lifted her face to the brightening sky. It was a blessed relief not to have to hide her feelings, as she would when the family were up and about. They would not think it strange to find her away. She would leave signs of having breakfasted, in the kitchen, and that would allay their suspicions. She frequently went alone on early morning walks. When it seemed not too early to be abroad, Beryl went inside and busied herself for a few minutes in the kitchen. Then she left, without having eaten. nun SHE returned to the Hoffman house, but she did not linger there. She was convinced Tommy had not spent the night at home. There was a place, a diner, where some of the boys of Tommy’s age hung out, she remembered. She went there, walking by as slowly as she could without attracting attention, but she did not see Tommy within the brightly lighted car. She started toward the theater i No, he would not be there now. She did not know where else to look for him. Tommy hadn’t been in the ; habit of frequenting gang hang- [ outs. Well, she'd have to give it ftp until she could see his uncle. But she didn’t feel like going home Her mqther and Irene would be prattling and bragging of Irene’s conquest. Beryl turned her steps toward the ■ beach, as almost always when her J heart was heavy and she wanted complete solitude. And there, by the rock where she had seen Tommy sitting with Irene on that night so long ago there she found Tommy. He was lying on the sand in a heap. Beryl’s heart contracted with sharp fear when she saw him, and she rushed forward with a cry. ; Tommy did not answer. She knelt by him and turned his face toward ! the morning light. It was an ugly face. There was

nothing of the chiseled fineness that belonged to it at other times. The wood-brown eyes were swollen and red. The good lips hung loose, and the clear skin was mottled. The reddish-brawn hair fell over it in lanky strands which dripped sand as Beryl lifted the head to her lap. She cried: "Tommy, Tommy, what’s the matter with you?” But she knew. It was the first time she had seen him like that, but she knew. There was nothing much that she could do. Tommy was too stupifled to walk and she had nothing to give him. So she just sat there and held his heacUtenderly in her lap while she scolded him severely Tommy did not hear her. Her words made no impression upon his deadened brain, but when she shook him roughly, as she did now and again, he grunted feebly in protest. She was with him like a mother whose child has endangered its own life and escaped. Tommy’s life had been endangered. He had dropped by the rock at low tide. Beryl looked at the water creeping nearer. “You need a good wetting," she said in insincere harshness. "I should just let you lie here and . . .” His clothes were a mess anway. It couldn’t do any harm, this new idea of hers, if she carried it out. She did not stop to think about it, but got up and tugged and dragged at Tommy’s inert body until she had it in the water. They both got pretty wet, but she saw to it that Tommy got plenty of the salt water in his face. It helped, and when the water became dangerously deep around them and Beryl started to drag Tommy out of it he was able to stand up and stagger—propefied by Beryl—to higher ground. There she tormented him with jerking him abount and finally—when he seemed about to fall asleep in spite of her efforts to keep him awake—she put both hands in his tangled hair and shook him roughly. He blinked at her then with a gleam of intelligence in his eyes. “Tommy, please, come out of it!" Beryl pleaded. * “What’s the matter with you?” Tommy mumbled. Beryl shook him again, harder. “I’ll show you, you young idiot!” she cried, the tears of a moment before gone from her voice. And now the understanding In his eyes increased. He sat up by himself. * "Listen, Tommy, listen," Beryl entreated him. "I have something to tell you.” (To Be Continued) WIDOW SOLE HEIR TO GAUSEPOHL ESTATE Property Goes to Two Children at Death of Mother. Will of the late Edward J.

Here he fed the carriers, paid them well and sent them home. Even to Owaza ha gave a gift of value, telling him never to return to Tarzan’s country. 4 ~

When they had all departed and Tarzan, Jane and Korak were standing on the veranda, Jad-bal-ja lying at the Apeman’s feet, Tarzan put his arm affectionately about his mate’s shoulder. “I’ll have to take back what I said about the gold of Apor not being for me. You see before you anew fortune that has come all the way from the treasure vaults of Opar without any effort on my part.’’ r *

"Now if seme one would only bring your diamonds back,” laughed Lady Greystoke. “No chance of that!” said Tarzan of the Apes. “They are undoubtedly at the bottom of the Ugogo river.” . . . And far away upon the banks of that river, in the village of Obebe. the cannibal, Esteban the false Tarzan lay in his crude hut, gloating over the fortune in diamonds that would never be of value to him.
