The car steadied, crawled smoothly down, bounded a little at the bottom, and that stage of the painful trip was completed. "Now where to, lady?” "Can you carry him a little farther—just to a taxi?” She remembered suddenly that there had been a dinner-party before all this happened. "The check,” she cried, impatiently. "Did any one pay it?" "You’re with Mr. Jupiter’s party, ain't you?” gasped the waiter, stooping to put his weight under Dirk’s limp shoulder. "It’s all right. Mr. Jupiter paid it. Take hold of his legs, there, brother. That’s it!" "Say!” the tall man interjected—he was, as she discovered later, the house detective—"there’s a doctor right here in the hotel. Why lug him any farther? "He’s with my party on the ‘Gypsy’,” Mary interrupted hurriedly. “The captain is a very good doctor. If we can just get him out there—before any reporters come. It would embarrass his family frightfully—to say nothing of me—” The house detective hunched his shoulders indifferently. "Anything you please. Have you got a cab?” a tt tt DE LOMA, who had been hovering restlessly nearby, now started forward as if galvanized. “I’ll get one!” he called back, and ran swiftly to the door. Before she could cry out, he had pushed past the gaping doorman and plunged into the street. "Stop that man! Oh, stop him!” "What?” The detective frowned, “I took his gun off him, sister — he’s harmless —” She nearly choked trying to explain to him in time that De Loma had her handbag and that it held a necklace worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. She ran after De Loma, the slowwitted detective following, behind them an open-mouthed waiter and r bellhop struggled slowly along with Dirk groaning in their arms. But when she had gained the sidewalk, she was surprised to see De Loma walking toward her at a restrained pace. He was perspiring, as if he had been running—but apparently he had looked in the wrong direction for a cab, for one already was drawn up at the curb, waiting. Mary simply could not figure it out. He had started out on the run —why should he be walking back so sedately? She gave the detective a puzzled look, and he looked at her as if he thought she must be drunk —or crazy. Then around the corner of the hotel a policeman walked, billy in hand. He approached and eyed the group suspiciously. He tapped De Loman on the arm. "Hey, buddy, where were you going in such a hurry?” ”1 told you!” De Loma snarled. "To find a cab for this man here —” he indicated Dirk just being lifted out the doorway. The policeman looked at the house detective. "O. K.,” he said, and moved off. "Now.” said the house detective to Mary, “what’s all this about your handbag?” Mary reddened, as she looked at De Loma. She was in the right, but

they made her feel as if she were in the wrong. "I—thought I’d lost It,” she stammered. "I forgot you had it!” There was nothing to do but hand it over, which De Loma did grimly. Mary opemd it—there was the excase that she had to tip the waiter and the bellboy, who were mopping their brows and panting on the curb, after having got Dirk safely into the waiting taxi. Her hand searched the silken depths desperately. The necklace was not there! CHAPTER FORTY-ONE “T OOK in your pocket—it must JL/ have fallen out!” Mary appealed to De Loma. Had he had time to extract the necklace and hide it somewhere, before the policeman saw him? She held her breath. “What must have fallen out?” "Why—the necklace?” His eyebrows went up. "But you told me Mr. Bates had it!” Mary colored, but her eyes never left his face. The detective moved closer. "Come on,” he said, roughly, “fork up, if you’ve got it.” Smiling venomously, De Loma drew his hand out of his pocket and handed her—the ruby necklace. Almost dizzy with relief, she dropped it into her handbag again. The gaping bellboy and the waiter she paid off, and they moved away unwillingly—fascinated watchers of the scene. “Say!” snapped the hotel detectime, "I’ve got a good mind to ” De Loma moved away from his grasp fastidiously. He held up his hand. The consummate insolence of the man was astounding. "It was only a joke!” he insisted. “She is too careless with her jewels —I told her so. I merely wished to frighten her a bit, officer, that’s all!” His patient ingratiating air as he made this preposterous explanation of his actions was very nearly convincing. The detective looked uncertainly at Mary. "Say is this guy on the level or not? If you say so, I’ll scare him a little bit ” “It’s perfectly true what he says,” Mary assured him hurriedly and a trifle haughtily. “This man is Count De Loma—he is my scort and it’s all quite true. Now, if you please, we must hurry ” Her anxious eyes sought the cab. U “'III7'HO’LL help you down at the VV pier with that man?” the detective called after her, dubiously. "I can manage—with a little help,” the taxi-driver offered. "I’ll look after this man,” De Loma said loftily, climbing into the cab after her. "Stupid asses!” He continued to curse the police force in all its branches, with heartfelt fervor for several blocks. Dirk was stirring now ... he looked about the dim interior of the cab with a dazed expression, felt of the back of his head, which had struck the floor soundly when he fainted. With amazement he recognized Mary, who returned his look with pleading in her eyes. “Where are you taking me?” he demanded, looking out the window suspiciously. "To a doctor. Please don’t talk!” She laid a pleading hand on his. He jerked his hand away. "What is this?” he blazed at her. "Kidnaping? Take me back to the hotel at once! As for you, you dirty snake ” He glared at De Loma, who lifted supercilious eyebrows and continued to gaze straight ahead. But the sudden movement had silenced Dirk; pain in the twisted ankle made him lean back and draw his breath hissingly in an effort to avoid crying out. The cab stopped at the pier, and Mary peered out uncertainly into the dark. Anew danger presented itself —this deserted spot, a crippled man on her hands, and no one but this unsuspecting cab driver for a protector. tt OUT of the shadows a large young man in sailor uniform appeared and touched his cap. “You for the “Gypsy’? I’m to take you aboard.” Mary recognized a member of the deck crew, and breathed a sigh of relief. The massive youn£ man lifted Dirk as if he had been a baby.

and with very little aid got him into the dinghy. Mary took the precaution of going first. De Loma followed, hesitantly. Obviously he was more than anxious to come along, and merely waiting an invitation to jump aboard, too. Mary gave it enthusiastically enough, now that she was so soon to be safely on board and this nightmare of anxiety ended. "Do come!” she begged. “There’ll be cocktails. And the boat can blrng you back whenever you like!” A second taxi drew up at the end of the pier. Before it could unload its passengers. Mary cried. “Quick! Before the reporters come!” Without a backward look, De Loma stepped into the boat and they shoved off. The taxicab’s passenger turned out to be George Bowen. Mary could see the familiar slouchy figure plainly under the light, as he paid off his cab driver, and ambled about the pier. She could not imagine what his errand was, and she had no time to find out. They must get Dirk aboard and into a doctor’s hands. He had lapsed into unconsciousness again—which was merciful—since the small boat bounded like a cork. n a u IT was only a short row to the "Gypsy” but it seemed miles to Mary with Dirk lying white and still against her shoulder. As the dinghy scraped along the side of the yacht a sailor ran down the suspended gangplank and pulled them against the stage. Captain Hendricks was a step behind him. The sight of his bulky figure was like a lighthouse in a storm to Mary. “Captain, it’s Mr. Ruyther,” she almost sobbed. "He’s hurt terribly.” "There, now, Miss Mary,” he said brusquely. “Everything will be all right. We’ll fix him up. You and the gentleman climb out now and I’ll take care of the young man.” Mary scrambled up the gangplank, De Loma on her heels. Together they peered over the rail as Captain Hendricks came puffing up, sure-footed as a mountain goat, with the injured man a senseless burden in his arms. Mary ran along the deck opening doors until she found a cabin that was not occupied. The captain deposited his burden on the low bed and, stripping off his coat, prepared to make an examination. "How was he hurt?” he asked curiously, as he raised Dirk and ;dipped off his coat, unfastening his collar. "I think it must be his leg, captain. He fell —” "Get me a knife.” MARY ran swiftly down the deck, and down the gangplank to the galley. In the drawer she found a butcher knife and hurried back with it. De Loma was leaning on the rail. She hailed a steward and told him to take the man’s order. "I hardly needed a knife so large,” Captain Hendricks smiled, but he accepted it, and quickly cut Dirk’s shoe laces and split the opening larger. Dirk turned and moaned as the captain tugged at the shoe. "Bad sprain there.” He ripped off the sock and disclosed an ankle already swoolen and purple. "Hot packs for a few hours, plenty of rest and he’ll be all right.” He rang for a steward and ordered a bowl of hot water and towels. "Hello, our patient is coming to,” he said as Dirk stirred uneasily. “Hand me the decanter, please. And a glass.” (To Be Continued)

TARZAN AT THE EARTH’S CORE

!

Tarzan, accustomed to the tribal life of primitive people, took his place naturally among the Clovians. the cave dwellers among whom chance had thrown him. He obeyed their ethics and followed their customs scrupulously. He paid no attention to those who paid none to him. There were only a few, however, who had accepted the ape-man without suspicion. Among them was Maral. the mother of the boy Tarzan had rescued from the ryth, and Rela, his sister.

These two women became devoted to the apeman because their son and brother had accepted him. Tarzan liked to talk with Maral because of her sunny disposition and marked intelligence. She told him she was from Zoram, having been captured by Avan, when as a young man he had decided to take a mate. To her birthplace Tarzan attributed her great beauty, for among the Clovi it was believed that the women of Zoram were the most beautiful in all the inner world.

Ulan he had liked from the first because he had championed the ape-man’s cause. He appeared superior to his fellow tribesmen. Besides being a famed hunter and warrior, Ulan was a maker of pictures. These he exhibited with much pride to Tarzan. Upon a cave’s wall he had outlined familiar beasts of Pellucidar. Some of them, like the mammoth and saber-tooth tiger, Tarzan had already encountered, but there was one he had never seen. Ulan called It gyor.

It had been noonday when Tarzan arrived, and it was still noonday. Under this never moving sun it was impossible for him to tell hew long he had lived with the Clovi. Never within the memory of the tribe had a strange warrior been allowed to remain with them, and most of the tribe were uneasy over Tarzan’s continued presence. They but awaited the return of Carb and his hunting part/ who they hoped* would then sentence the stranger to deatjy
