Pearing Beryl's anger at her deceit. Irena slips awav and marries Prentiss. Then she telephones the news home. Bervl develops throat trouble and the doctor advises rest. She catches cold while soaking Tommy to beg him to leave hia bootlegging gang Her throat becomes worse and she learns that her ringing da.vs are over. when lommv realizes she has made this sacrifice to save him. he reforms, gets another lob. and starts night courses to finish college. Bervl is happy until Irene quarrels with Prentiss and comes home to get a divorce. Bervl's fears increase as she realizes that Irene is trying to win back Tommy's love. MRS EVERETT questions Irene about dallv letters which she is receiving from another man. VOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FORTY MRS. EVERETT was looking serious as she handed the letter to Irene. The girl took it and put it on the stand by her bed without a second glance, waiting to be left alone to read it. Her mother assumed a firm pose and said heavily, “You won’t like it, but I’ve made up my mind to ask who writes those letters to you.” Irene was surprised, and showed it. “What?” she said, sitting up in bed and looking as though she couldn’t quite believe what she had heard. Imagine her mother coming at her like that! “It's a man, and I know it Is,” her mother went on, with the bluntness of the timid suddenly becoming assertive. “You may think you are able to take care of yourself, but I’m your mother, and 1 want to know what's going on.” “Well, of all things!” Irene breathed, half-amused, half-angered. “I'm willing to believe that Gaylord is all to blame for your trouble w r ith him,” Mrs. Everett continued, “but I know you’re going to be talked about If you start running around with Tommy Wilson in that car of his and you've no right to accept attentions from him while you are married to Gaylord. To say nothing of this other man!” She pointed a finger to the letter on the stand, and Irene laughed, a fclt nervously. “Oh—“ Derry!” she said casually. “Why, he's only a kid, and I guess you know how kids are. They get foolish ideas and imagine they’re going to feel the same for the rest of their lives, and all that, but it doesn’t amount to anything.” “It could amount to something to a girl whose husband is getting a divorce from her,” Mrs. Everett said ominously. “The boy lives in Oakdale, doesn’t he?” Irene lifted her eyebrows. “Th* postmark?” she said with an infled tion that brought a flush to her mother’s face. “What if I did look at it?” she challenged. “Many a mother would have opened these letters and read them!” “Yes?” Irene returned. “If it comes that I’ll leave.” Mrs. Everett was about to retort In kind when her husband’s voice arose frem below, calling for his breakfast. The interruption prevented what might have been a serious quarrel between mother and daughter. a a a WHEN she was gone Irene seized the letter and tore it into bits without reading it. Why couldn’t Derry have some sense! She’d asked him time and again not to write to her every day. For half a cent she’d not answer one of his letters again. But then, she told herself, "the young idiot would hotfoot it from Oakdale and spoil everything.” “Everything,” was Tommy. Just the other evening before he'd started for school, Tommv’d said that flirts “ought to be shot.” Os course she hadn’t meant to encourage Deery, but Oakdale hadn't been very entertaining. There were a lot of girls who were jealous because their most eligible young man had married outside of the town. They wouldn’t let her feel at home. Some of them had attended boarding school in the east and thought if you hadn’t done the

tame you couldn't amount to much. They let you know what they thought, too. Worst of all had been the matrons who must have heard from the debutantes that Irene never had attended a finishing school. They tried patronizingly to induct her into their society for Gaylord's sake. "These and the “stuffy old family friends” had driven her into a flirtation with Derry Meade, a nice- ' looking boy who could dance circles around anyone else the girls in Oakdale had to play with. Derry hadn't much social background to boast of. He was in fact the only member of his family (a nice enough family tool who'd ever seen the inside of the country club. He was welcomed becaugirls liked him. Every one li’.:c'' : him. He wasn't very earnest about any- ! thing, though maybe he might set ' the world on fire if he knew how, but he didn’t know how. And Derry was a fine dancer. He loved dancing. Irene dazzled him. She was a | newcomer as well as pretty and her , clothes were ravishing. The last day Irene and Prentiss , spent In New York when she had I shopped furiously had been deltght- ■ ful. The next day when they started for Oakdale it rained. Driving was difficult and Gaylord was preoccupied puzzling over the best way to tell his father of his hasty marriage. Irene, tired and cross, showed her irritation, and their day was spoiled. * a a THINKING back over the short period of her marriage, Irene i blamed Gaylord for every difficulty. He hadn’t cared whether she enjoyed herself in his old home or not. All he could think of was the soap factory, and hunting. He left her whole days and nights at a time and came back with nothing but a couple of wild ducks to show for his time. What men could see in sitting for hours in a boat hidden in a bunch of seaweeds, Irene couldn’t understand. “Irene,” her mother called up to her, “I’ve made some muffins. You’d better hurry down if you want them hot.” Irene put a dainty foot on the soft rug by her bed and sat with one knee swung across the other. She was still engrossed in the hard- | ships of her life with Gaylord, j Os course her flirtation with Derry had been a mistake, but it i wouldn’t have amounted to any- : thing if Gaylord hadn’t found out about it. Irene hadn’t forgotten what he said to her, his face white and furious. She continued to smart over his refusal to forgive her after | she had “humbled” herself to ask ; him to do it. She argued with him until seized I with the conviction that he really i wanted to be rid of her. She'd j taunted him with this accusation and Gaylor had answered scathingly. \ Then the conditions Gaylord had laid down! Irene wondered that she had agreed to them, but she had only to call to mind the vision iof her husband’s countenance as : he declared himself to understand why she had done so. She would marry Derry. Gaylord had done her the honor to take that for granted. It was tough on | Derry, he unflatteringly admitted, j but the boy had let himself in j for it. She would marry Derry but she must not see the young man again i until her separation from Gaylord was legal. On this condition alone ; would the young husband agree to i get his divorce without scandal in- ! volving Derry’s name. Irene, shrinking from the thought I of exposure before Oakdale society, | consented to ga away and allow I Gaylord to divorce her without con- | test. There was promised to her a reasonable sum of money. Derry was required to remain in Oakdale, i where Gaylord could keep an eye :on him. For this last stipulation Irene now i was thankful. And it would be so , bad marrying Tommy now and havI ing to wait for him to get somewhere. They could live with her

family and she’d have all her own mcney for clothes. This certainly would be better than marrying Derry Meade and becoming a social outcast in Oakdale. No matter what status she might occupy there as the divorced wife of Gaylord Prentiss, she would not be accepted by the town’s elite as Mrs. Derry Meade. Derry could marry Into the social set and be regarded favorably, but if he married outside of it he would be lost, along with his wife. a a a HOW could she ever have thought of marrying Derry? Irene was impatient with herself and her impatience put an end to her reverie. She put on her most becoming morning frock, changed it after lunch to her most fashionable after-* noon dress and then, just before dinner, donned her loveliest informal evening gown. Tommy arrived shortly before 6. He had hurried to get into clean clothes and come directly to the Everett home. Beryl, an intensely miserable spectator, watched the couple drive away in Tommy's new car. She’d just reached home in time to change her knitted dress for a silk one, grab a bite of dinner, and then rush back to the store to make sandwiches for a boys’ club. Her heart was heavier than ever. Tommy had handed Irene into that car with the gestures of a nobleman assisting his lady fair into his chariot. Irene praised the car and Tommy thought it was generous of her not to compare it with the motors the Prentisses owned. Before they returned home from the short drive Irene had decided definitely that she would break with Derry Meade. She felt she had gained considerable ground with Tommy. “When he said good-night to me.” she congratulated herself, “I’m sure he wanted to kiss me.” But the break with Derry did not come about as Irene had anticipated. Next morning she refrained from destroying Derry’s letter unread and was glad she had. For the young man threatened to come to see her, thus breaking his promise to Gaylord. He declared he couldn't stand it any longer without at least a brief visit with her. Irene was tempted to write him a long, sisterlv letter, but caution intervened. Derry was sure to come bounding on like a rubber ball at the end of a string. Then Tommy would know about him. Tommy wouldn’t forgive her for this latest affair. She had played with fire and now she must put out the embers, Irene told herself, at the same time making plans to accomplish this purpose. (To Be Continued) INSURGENTS BALKED Threatened Cabinet Crisis Averted in Germany. By United Press BERLIN, June 13.—A threat to dissolve the reichstag and call new elections was believed today to have averted a cabinet crisis. Chancellor Heinrich Bruening was given semi-dictatorial powers by President Paul von Hindenburg after a conference at the president's vacation quarters. There had been rumors of a possible resignation of the Bruening ministry in the face of attacks on the recent decree enforcing new economies, and on the withdrawal of foreign credits from Germany. A government spokesman said that it was believed the Hindenburg threat of dissolution would be sufficient to bring the insurgent political factions into line and avert a cabinet crisis.

TARZAN, LORD OF THE JUNGLE

The noonday silence lay upon the jungle. Onlv the insects buzzed about. Suddenly there came a great scampering through the trees. Manu and his brothers trooped chattering through the middle terrace, shrieking: "The Mangani—the Mangani come!" "Go and call to them,” urged Tarzan. "Tell them that one of their people lies here, helpless. Tell them to hasten and release me."

"We are afraid," chattered all the younger monkeys.” “I will go,” announced an old graybeard, ‘‘the Mangani can not catch me.” Presently Tarzan heard the deep gutterals of his own people, the gr;at apes. “Perhaps,” he thought, “there will be those among them who know me. It is my only hope.” He lay there listening, knowing that even now fierce eyes were watchNing him

There was great danger, too that the huge anthropoids might quietly withdraw without showing themselves, suspecting a trick or a trap So Tarzan called aloud, saying he was defenseless, a friend, needing food and water. After a moment’s paus* a shaggy ape lumbered into the clearing. Swaging along with knuckles to the ground, the brute came close to Tarzan,
