BEGIN HERE TODAY BSRYX BORDEN, secretly la lov Tlth TOMMY WILSON, knows that he never would be hsppv with her haifslster. IRENE EVERETT, and tries to present their marriage. Irene Is Jealous when she fail* and Beryl secures a radio contract. Beryl’s voice Wr.i her new friends but she can not forget her hopeless love though she goes to parties with young PRENTISS GAYLORD. Irene learns Prentiss Is rich and tries to win him from Beryl. He is susceptible, takes her driving and to dinner. Tammy's aunt dies end he loses both money and Job through her husband. Tommy tells Irene of his bad luck, and she breaks their engagement. When Prentiss asks hmer to marry him she accepts. In despair Tommy takes to drink. Beryl finds him and tries to cheer him up. She tells Irene she must either to back to Tommy or confess to Prenlss how heartlessly she has treated him. Irene promises, but plans to outwit BeryL After receiving a telegram from Prentiss asking her to marry him that day, she slips away and meets him. Later she telephone* her home to announce that 6he and Pentiss are married. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO PRENTISS excused himself for a moment while Irene talked to Beryl and thus she was able to say what she pleased. “I did as you demanded,” she chose to lie, “and you should have heard what Prentiss said.” “Yes?” Beryl answered steadily, though her heart was beating rapidly. “Yes is right,” Irene mocked. “He asked why I thought he would be Interested in my past so long as he had my present. I told him you had insisted that I tell him everything. Well, I did, and he only laughed." “I don’t believe you,” Beryl retorted. “I don't care whether you do or not,” Irene informed her. “We’re married Maybe you won’t believe that, either, so I’ll bring the marriage certificate home to show you. “And you can ask mother to pack my best things right away. We’re leaving early in the morning for Oakdale.” She put down the telephone without waiting for a reply from Beryl. She had seen Prentiss coming. “I was talking with Beryl,” she said to him sweetly. “I want her to break the news gently to mother.” "You’re a thoughtful girl,” Prentiss said soberly. “I know I’m going to be a happy man, Irene.” She smiled at him. “You wouldn’t mind taking some flowers to mother. would you?” she asked. “Asa peace offering?” And so she got her orchids, with a bunch of roses for her mother. Beryl was not at home when the bridal couple arrived there. She’d had a battle royal with her mother, who stoutly denied any previous knowledge of Irene’s plans. Alter that she went to find Tommy. Beryl didn’t believe that Irene had told Prentiss about her engagement to Tommy Wilson, but it would do no good to interfere now. Perhaps it wouldn’t have helped anyway. If Prentiss believed Irene loved him he’d say she had the right to break her engagement to Tommy Beryl realized that her own interest in Tommy might have confused her sense of values. She even wondered if she hadn’t hurried this blow by trying to help him. She got into her car (she still had the old one she'd got in trade for her boat) and drove off at a rattling speed. tt tt tt TOMMY was not at his uncle’s home. Neither could she find him at the theater. Finally, after driving about the town for an hour she glimpsed him in a garage. She stopped, parked and went back to the place to tell him she wanted to talk to him. Tommy agreed sheepishly to come with her, expecting she had decided to lecture him. They climbed into her car, Beryl at the wheel, and drove toward the South Shore. Beryl did not know how to begin what she had to say to him. Her mood disturbed Tommy. Usually if Beryl had anything to say, she said He decided she did not intend to scold him. He’d been willing to take it, but was glad it wasn’t forthcoming. He'd never been so low in spirit before in all his young life. Now it worried him to have Beryl sitting there looking so gloomy. “The next time you come to a shade tree, park the car,” he said at last. “You’ve got trouble to spill. It's written all over your face.”

Beryl decided that Tommy was right. They’d best stop and talk. “Weil?” Tommy invited as ehe still hesitated after the car was comfortably parked in the shade. She faced him. Her voice showed how wretched she felt. “Shall I let you have both barrels at once, Tommy?” she asked. “Sure. Go ahead.” “It's pretty tough Sure you can take it?” “Os course. Shoot!'’ Beryl drew in her breath. “I can’t get Irene back for you,” she said “She’s married.’ * Tommy Just wilted. He didn’t say a word or make a move—he just wilted. Neither spoke for a long time. Tommy’s voice was hollow when he did look at Beryl and say dully: “Tell me about it.” She told him all she knew and was tempted to add what she thought, but appreciated the futility of it. She might as well tell him that he was lucky to be alive as to tell him that he was lucky to lose Irene. She drove back to his home when he asked her to without tormenting him with conversation. When he asked a question she answered it, but did not volunteer further information. “See you later,” Tommy said casually when he stepped out of the car. Beryl watched him enter the house. After that she went in search of his uncle. When she had spoken her mind | to Mr. Hoffman, he knew that he’d better look after Tommy or answer to a virago. tt a tt AFTER that she went home. , There one stroke of good fortune had befallen her. Irene and her new husband had departedMrs. Everett still was really excited and, apparently forgetting that hot words had passed between her and Beryl a few hours earlier, insisted on repeating all Irene had said. Irene had this! Irene was to have that! And just look at these orchids! Beryl gazed at the mass of expensive blooms. “Now I know,” she said, “what is meant by beggar on horseback.” Her mother looked at her doubtfully. She did not understand and so could not reply. But there w'as something she did mean to say, and be firm about it, too. Her voice became sharp. “It wasn’t at all nice of you to stay aw 7 ay and not wish your sister happiness,” she said. “Irene was terribly disappointed, and I don’t know what Prentiss thought of it.” Beryl’s lips twisted into a caustic smile. “Yes,” she admitted, “I dare say Irene was disappointed. A parade’s no good without someone to view it.” She turned and walked away, unheeding her mother's continued scolding. Alone in her room Beryl had to admit there was satisfaction for herself in the situation. No use trying to deny it, telling herself it was beastly to feel so when Tommy was unhappy. She had not done this thing to Tommy. She had not made the choice of evils for him. And in time he would learn that what had happened was best for him. The light in Beryl’s eyes dimmed faintly. “I’m a fool,” she told herself. “Tommy never will love me., ■ls that were, to be, it would have happened before this. No. It will be some other girl. He’ll never care for me.” tt tt it A LITTLE later Mrs. Everett called her to come down to dinner. She said she was not hungry. Beryl*’s voice, as she called back down the stairs, sounded husky. She stayed in her room all evening. Her mother climbed the stairs to point out something she thought Beryl might have overlooked. It was that Irene would be in an influential position now where she could help Beryl a great deal. “How do you mean—help me?” Baryl asked. “Why, in your career,” her mother explained. “Don’t you think you’d better write her a nice little note ana apologize?” Beryl smothered the anger that rose within her and laughed. “I guess you don’t know how funny that is,” she said. “It's not funny. It’s serious!”

“It’s funny. Irene has nothing to do with my career. I’m what lam without her help. And I don’t suppose,” she added suddenly, “that you'd accuse your darling daughter of meaning to turn my boss against me.” Mrs. Everett answered uneasily: “How can you say such unreason-, able things?" However, her eyes' avoided Beryl’s. She was thinking of something that Irene had said when she found Beryl gone that afternoon and a large part of her triumph spoiled. “11l show her!” Irene had declared. “I’ll see that she never gets another contract with the Gaylord Soap Company. And it won’t do her a bit of good to be turned down. Other people won’t be so keen about her then.” Mrs. Everett sighed, wishing Beryl were as reasonable as Irene. "Honey, you mustn’t do that,” she had said to Irene. “Your father and I need Beryl’s help.” Irene had seen it at once and admitted she was wrong. It was a comfort to have a daughter like Irene—one who could be obliging. It would be a little thing for Beryl to acknowledge her fault as readily as Irene had done and write to her sister. As usual, her argument with her mother was of short duration. Mrs. Everett, thinking it over, felt that she had not made the situation any better for Irene. She came in softly the last thing before she went to bed and brought a tray of light refreshments for Beryl. “Are you sure you’re well,” she jasked. Beryl nodded. “I tvish you wouldn’t quarrel with me,” her mother said forlornly. “It’s hard to have a child get married and go away. Irene didn’t mean the cross words she said. It was just temper and she was sorry right away.” “Poor little Irene. . . But Beryl hadn’t been thinking of her sister —she was thinking of something (hat frightened her.

Two Arabs drew apart, discussing whether to kill the ape-man or to held him captive. At last the cunning Mctlog's advice prevailed. “Let us take him before Ibn Jad.” he said. “What the sheik does with him is his own business. Come!” And so Tarsan was taken along with their other trophies of many days’ hunting back toward the men*!] of r Ibn Jad.

In the open men’s apartment of his beyt Es’sh’ar squatted the Sheik Ibn Jad of the Pendy El-Guad. Beside him sat Tollog, his evil brother and a handsome young Beduin named Zeyd. This youth was a favored suitor for the hand of Ateja, the lovely daughter of the sheik. Toward her Zeyd stele many a glance as, with Hirfa, her fat mother, the two women busied themselves in the sheik's harem.

As the women worked they listened. “We hare come a long way from cur baled, without mishap,” Ibn Jad was remarking. “New we are close to the spot where the magician foretold I should find the castled city of Nimmr. Soon we should enter Ei-Habash.” “Thinkest thou to find this fabled city easily, once we are within the boundaries of EI-Haba&h?” asked Tollog, his brother,

“I shall find means to mike the habashy loose their tongues,” said Ibn Jad grimly. “‘Nimmr is known to these people. Feijuan, my head slave, though he has never been there, heard of it as a boy.” Then the sheik permitted himself a chuckle, partly at the thought of Nimmr’s gold and precious stones and partly in anticipation of tire tortures he would inflict upon the men of Ei-Hafcasn if they refused to guide ht^
