BEGIN HERE TODAY , B S RDE . N - **crtly la love with TOMMY WILSON, knows that he never JouM b* frapp." with her half-sister, IRENE EVERETT. and tiles to prevent their marriage. Irene is Jealous when she falls and Beryl secures a radio contract. Beryl's voice wins her new friends, but she can net 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. Tommy's aunt dies and he loses both money and iob through her husband. Tommy tells Irene his bad luck and She breaks the engagement. When Prentiss asks her to marry him she accepts. In despair Tommy drinks heavily and Beryl finds him. She tries to cheer him up and tells Irene that she must either go tack to Tommy or confess to Prentiss how heartlessly she has acted. Irene promises, but plans to outwit Beryl. After receiving a telegram from Prentiss asking her to marry him that dav she slips away and meets him. They are married and Irene telephones home to tell the news. The parents are e.ated over the wealthy son-in-law. Beryl knows that Irene has evaded the truth. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE THE morning following Irene’s wedding day was beautiful. It was one of those crystalline mornings when earth and sky seem to call to all living creatures to be joycus. The house was strangely quiet when Beryl eponed her eyes after a night of fitful sleep. She glanced at her watch. Her mother would be about the house soon. She thought uncomfortably of the day that was ahead of her, dreading conversation with the family. Yet if she said nothing she would be thought sullen. Beryl arose and picked up a hand mirror. What it told her stirred her sense of humor until a faintly mocking light showed in her eyes. There was her excuse. With a throat like that silence would be forgiven. She would not need to discuss Irene’s marriage when she did not know what she thought about it. Beryl possessed that rare facultv of being able to laugh at herself She knew it was best for Tommy not to marry Irene, and yet she couldn’t help feeling bitter toward her sister. She knew that in any conversation concerning Irene she would rail against her while at the same time she must admit Irene couldn’t have done a kinder thing for Tommy than to become Mrs. Prentiss Gaylord. Mrs. Prentiss Gaylord. . . Eeryl turned to the window. What a day! She supposed the bridal couple would drive to Oakdale in the black and chromium roadster. What a morning to start on a honeymoon journey! It wouldn't be necessary to travel in a black and chromium roadster. A slim boy beside you . . . the words “man and wife’’ still ringing in your ears ... a boy with the brown of woods In his eyes and the touch of the sun in his hair ... a laughing boy. . . . “Listen!" Beryl spoke aloud and whirled from the window. “I'm paging you, Old Trapper. I want you to swear for me. And swear good and plenty. Swear hard.” tt n a ANGRILY she dashed the tears from her smarting eyes. But she couldn’t dash the picture that had called for stout words out of her mind. It was the picture of a once laughing boy in helpless collapse on a wet beach. It had flashed into her day dreaming like an evil threat. She put a hand to her throat . . . pain . . . But she must know how Tommy was. She must go out and find him. Beryl started to dress hurriedly lest the pain in her thoat frighten her into staying indoors. It was a terrible thing, to be so afraid, she thought. But what would she do without her voice? She needed the money she earned, but there was more. There was the release she knew in spirit when she sang. She could pour her longing out in song. She could call to Tommy. She could scold him. She could plead with him and pray for him. Because his name was not on her lips, but only in her heart, people would praise her and talk to her about the power of the artist to express universal human emotions. The solace she found in singing meant much to Beryl. She felt she could not do without it. How 7 stupid she would be to go out

today. She knew that wetting her ; feet in the dew and bringing Tommy j back to normalcy at the beach had ; started her trouble anew. The doc- 1 tor would be furious if she went out j at this hour. Beryl was dressed now. Where would Tommy be? She did not find Tommy. His uncle told her that Tommy had left the house after receiving a note sent; to him by messenger. “And I haven’t seen him since,” he added worriedly. “Why didn’t you stop him?” Beryl flamed. “Don’t you know he might : do something reckless?” “How could I stop him? I hurried home after you told me what had happened and found him acting natural enough. “What do you mean, natural enough?” ‘ Well, he wasn’t doing anything —just lying on his bed. You didn’t expect he’d be doin’ a tap dance, do you?” Beryl ignored the sarcasm. “Then what happened?” she snapped. “Then the messenger boy brought the note and I took it up to Tommy.” “Did you stay there while he read it?” “No. I came down to think about something for supper and while I was doing it Tommy left. He didn’t argue about it. He just left.” “Who w 7 as the note from?” “I don’t know, but I guess it was from Irene.” “Yes,” Beryl agreed, and her voice grew more caustic. “I guess it was. Irene would do a thing like that.” She went home then, and sent for the doctor. “You might as well have come in to see me,” he scolded her. “I saw you driving around in your fresh air bus.” The doctor’s tone was good natured, but there was graveness in his eyes. His voice changed as he decided to tell her the truth. “Seriously, Beryl,” he said, “I must warn you that your condition is one that you must not neglect. I’m going to put you to bed for a few days at least. And I’m going to call Dr. Auguston from New York. He’s a throat specialist—a good one. I want his opinion.” tt tt n BERYL looked at him, suddenly really frightened. “Do you think it’s anything really serious?” she asked quickly. “Anything . . . ] permanent?” The doctor hesitated for a mo- ; ment. Then, “Beryl,” he said sud- ; denly, “you’re a sensible girl. That 1 entitles you to hear the truth. I ! hesitated about alarming you, but j I think it best to warn you that j you have some of the symptoms of ! a rare throat malady. “Little is known about it. I never have encountered it in my practice, 1 but I believe Dr. Auguston knows as much about it as any man living.” ! The shadow in Beryl’s eyes deepened. “Is it—dangerous?” she breathed. The doctor shook his head. “We do not consider it incurable,” he said, “but it can give endless trouble, especially to a singer. Until I have Dr. Auguston’s advice, I u 7 ant you to stay in bed.” Beryl stirred impatiently. “But I can’t stay in bed,” she protested. Then, seeing a look of annoyance on the doctor’s face, she added quickly: “Could you get Dr. Auguston today?” “Possibly,” the doctor said dryly, “but I expect you to understand that we will be fortunate to get Auguston at any time at all. His fee, by the way, may seem exorbitant, but he’s worth it; every penny.” Beryl sighed/ “Yes,” she said. “I’ve heard of famous specialists.” The doctor got up to go. “I’ll send for him at once,” he said. Beryl stopped him at the door. “You haven’t,” she said, “seen Tommy Wilson today, have you, doctor?” The doctor, On the strength of long years of practicing in the family, spoke frankly in reply. “Yes,” he admitted, “I saw him early this morning. The young fool was in trouble with the Larkin boys.” Beryl sat up with a jerk. “What kind of trouble?” she cried. “The kind of guy like Tommy always gets into when a girl throws him over,” the doctor replied. “It’s a pity girls like Irene aren’t all born in China."

BERYL flashed him a faint smile of gratitude for placing the blame where it belonged. But his implication of weakness on Tommy’s part needed refuting, she thought. “Tommy’s all right," she protested. “All his bad luck came at once.” “H’m,” the doctod returned dryly. “Someone had better dig him out pretty quick.” “Yes,” Beryl agreed. "Someone had.” The doctor shook his head. “Not today,” he said warningly. “You stay right there in bed until Auguston sees you. If you don’t,” he added gravely, “the consequences may be serious for you.” “Will you let me know if Dr. Auguston is coming today?” The doctor promised and departed. Mrs. Everett, who had been on an errand during his call, appeared to ask Beryl what he had said,J3eryl did not tell her all the doctor had hinted at. Instead she asked a question of her own. “Do you know what Irene said to Tommy in that note she sent him yesterday?” she demanded. “Who told you she sent him a note?” her mother evaded. “If she flaunted Prentiss’ wealth in Tommy’s face ” Beryl began heatedly, but her mother cut her short. “She did nothing of the kind,” she declared. “It was just a sweet little note to ask him to try to forget her.” t “I can imagine,” Beryl remarked bitterly: “So sweet it would drive him to drink. He probaDly thought he’d lost an angel. . . .” “Irene is a good girl,”* the mother asserted, “you ought to think of all she can do for you!” Beryl did not answer for a moment. Then, “If you mean my career,” she said slowly, “I may not have one. Our old medico is sending for a genie to find out.” (To Be Continued) FIGHT RUSSIAN LUMBER American Firms Intend to Demand Tariff Revisions. By Scripps-Haward Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, June s.—Because the United States army is using cheap Russian matches, American match makers may join with American lumber companies in demanding amendments to the United States tariff law which would shut out Russian goods produced under “unfair competition for which there is no legal precedent.’’ The National Lumber Manufacturers Association today confirmed reports that it intends to ask certain revisions to the tariff law in December. In addition, the association intends to prod the tariff commission daily for an investigation and report on Russian lumber under the charge that its entry violates Section 337, the present “unfair competition” part of the tariff law.

“Often do magicians lie,” replied Tollog, sagely. Just then came the sound of men approaching through the jungle. “It is Fahd and Motlog coming back from the hunt,” said the Sheik. With astonishment they then saw Tarzan surrounded by his guards, making his way toward the beyt. For a moment the ape-man Intently scrutinized Ibn Jad and the shifty-eyed visage of Tollog.

Tarzan was the first to speak. "Who is Sheik here?” he demanded in tones of authority. "Behold him,” replied Ibn Jad, "and by what name are you known?” “They call me Tarzan of the Apes, Moslem,” said Tarzan calmly. “I have heard the name,” sneered the Sheik. "All Arab slave traders have,'! Tarzan said. “Why then, have you come to my country?*

“We come but to trade in peace for 'vory,” Ibn Jad began suavely. “Thou liest In thy beard,” returned Tarzan quietly. "I have seen Galla slaves in thy menzil. They are not here of their own choosing. Remove the thongs that bind me and prepare to return north from whence thou came.” At-that Ibn Jad’s eyes narrowed and bga came close to the WTist-bound ape-man.
