She comes home to find a note telling her that "Orand" and ' Rosalie" have gone ta spend the dav with friends. Ann Is frightened because she has had no word from Cecily. Mri-Frances and De Armount leave in his car. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FORTY-TWO MARY-FRANCES sighed and found a pine nut, deep in a inty corner of her coat pocket, and ate it. A man with a piece of red cloth in his hand stepped out into the load and stopped them. MaryPrances, for a minute, was frightened; but it was only that road work was going on and that oneway traffic rules were being enforced. They had to wait there for fifteen minutes, and then the man gave them the piece of red cloth to deliver to another man, who took It at the far end of the bumpy stretch. "It, is getting late,” said MaryFrances, “and Mendel Springs is so far.” “Want I should let her out to sixty, hon? She can do it, and better,” Earl said. “I guess so,” said Mary-Frances. Soon they came to a town named Cutter and sped through it like a streak; but just beyond Cutter there was a long detour, and the road was very bad, and they barely moved along for miles and miles, until finally, they reached a little place foolishly named India. Here Earl bought gasoline, and reassured Mary-Frances as to how straight he was going to treat her, and reminded her again that she was going to thank him to her dying day. Mary-Frances answered. She said, “Yes,” twice, and “I know,” a time or two; but her gray eyes were wistful, and her sighs were deep drawn. On the highway once more, Earl said, "Listen, sweetie baby, I’m going to idle along a ways, and you and I is going to have a little talksee? “You act like you was kinda worried or something—see? I want, to tell you I’m crazy about you—see? And you are about me, and all. “Just the same, I’m going to treat you like a pal and a buddysee? And if I don’t, I hope I get mine. Here’s another thing. A loving, trusting little sweetie like you is just about going to be the making of me—see? Just about the making of me, and I’m ” “ ARL,” Mary-Frances interHz rupted, "I’d rather you’d go faster. I like to go fast.” “Sure, I know. But say, listen, baby, you ain’t sore at me nor anything, are you?” “No. Only—l want to get to Mendel Springs. I —just want to get there.” “Little sweeties cutie baby,” he said, with real tenderness. “I wish to gosh we could get married right now, open and above-board. But I’m telling you, you won’t be any more anxious than I am, see ” “Let’s go fast,” said Mary-Frances. “Fast as we can.” “She’ll do 70 or better. Wanta risk it?” Mary-Frances wished to risk it; so then they went riding along together at seventy miles an hour. Undoubtedly it was more or less dangerous to speed on the highway and in a car with uncertain tires. But fortune favored them. In the end they arrived safely at Mendel Springs and got out of the car near the stone-walled well. While Mary-Frances stood off a bit,

j and held her handkerchief to her I nose, Earl drank three cups of the | horrible smelling water. Then he rejoined her and they went together up the steps and across the wide veranda and Into the hotel. m n CECILY and Ann. arm In arm, were walking up the front | steps to the porch. Barry, ip his car, was circling the turn-around with the old broken fountain In its center. Cecily repeated. “Ann, I am sorry,” and added, “but why in the world were you frightened, angel?” It is only half past 6 right now.” “Cissy—l can hardly breathe yet. I’ve pictured you at the bottom of every ravine in Oregon. I’ve never had such an hour—l can hardly breathe. “Os course, 11 you’d been dressed —but in your bathrobe! I telephoned the hospitals. They acted as if they’d never heard of such a thing as an accident. Goodness! Cissy, where have you been?” “Up in the hills. Let’s stop here a minute on the porch. Ann. I—did you have bad time with Grand after I left this morning?” “Bad? Terrible. He declares that you pushed nir. over—struck him dow-n, he say s, in the hall——” “Ann! I did not! Oh, my word! I suppose I am in for it. Well—it can last only so long. Wait a minute. Ann. “Angel, I—l hope you are going to forgive me. Barry is coming back in about half an hour, and I’m going with him—and we’re going to be married. “Wait—let me tell you. He got the license in Albany yesterday—just think. We’ve been talking and talking and deciding all day. We either have to marry or give ei ’h other up entirely. There’s his book—his books, and his future. Everything. I’ll keep on working, of course, and pay what I make, every cent of it, in here at home. “If Bary’s book is a success, and it is bound to be, we can help a lot. We’re coming, both of us, on Sundays to clean house. “Barry says he’s a slick cleaner of houses, and—You said you wanted me to marry, Ann. You remember, the other day, you said—” “Sister’s sweetheart! Os course I said so, and I do. Dear, I’m glad. Don’t think anything else—don’t talk so—so humbly. I’m glad. You’ll be so happy. So happy.” tt tt tt but —Ann, how shall I i break it to Grand and Rosalie? Barry said just to say—- “ They aren’t here, thank goodness! They’ve gone out with the Carmichaels for dinner and the evening. “They are cheering Grand up, I know, so they’ll probably play eucher and be away late. You can just go. I would, if I were you. Just go. I’ll tell them when they come home. “They’ll fuss, but I don’t care. Cissy, after the last hour it would take more than a scene to shake me. “Now that you are alive and happy, nothing else seems to matter. Really it doesn’t. Come, let’s go in. No one’s at home. Not even M.iry-Frances.” In the lower hall Cecily said, “Angel, angel, angel Ann!” In the upper hall she said, “And I was afraid to tell you! Then you don't think that I’m frightfully selfish and—all that? You know, you understand that I'm not really letting you down?” "Cissy dear! Os course 1 don’t— I mean, I do—l mean whatever I do mean. I’m just glad—that’s all. Glad for your pluck aand everything. “What are you going to wear? Oil, Cissy, honey—you must take those lovely undies Penn Johns sent me last Chistmas. Let me see—my gloves are newer than yours. ! You take them. And my best stockings—I haven’t worn them. “Now, let me see—you’ll wear your new tan this evening, won’t you? I would, if I were you. My beads are sweet with it. ‘ I’m so glad you washed your hair yesterday. What do you want to take, honey? I’ll be putting the things out on the bed while you’re in the bathroom.”

“I suppose I’ll have to take that awful old suitcase, as well as my overnight bag. We’re going to Albany tomorrow. “Later in the week well come down, annd I’ll pack a trunk; but I won’t want to have to rush about it. Yes—the old suitcase and my overnight bag. “I can leave the suitcase in the car tonight. If youll get them out, dear, 111 decide what to put in them later. I suppose there isn’t any hot water?” “I’ll light 1 the gas heater. No, that takes too long. I’ll run down and put on the kettle and bring it up—” “You will not. I’ll do it myself.” a m THEY started for the door and arrived there at the same time, and there was a small tussle. Cecily said, “You get the bags, angel, and I’ll put on the kettle. “I won’t have you running up and down stairs, waiting on me. The suitcase is in the east room closet, I think. My bag is in my closet.” “Cissy! I’ve had an awful thought. It isn’t. Mary-Frances went to Ermintrude’s to spend the night, and I’m sure she has taken your bag. She always does.” "But I must have it. I can’t, I positively can’t take that old wooden brush and black comb of mine—nor any of my toilet tilings—they’re disgraceful ”

“Don’t worry. I’ll telephone to her right away to bring it home. You’d want to tell her goodby—” "Os course. I’ll call her while I’m downstairs. You get the suitcase, dear. But don’t fill it with your things. I’m going to take all your things.” Ann found the suitcase and sighed because of its scratches and dents and rough spots. She opened the bureau drawers in the east room and tossed through their scented contents. The bureau in the east room had served as her hope chest. So many of the things she had thought pretty were odd and old-fashioned now. Imagine any one’s wearing a stepin the size of this thing. It was large enough for Rosalie. There was that sweet changeable taffeta breakfast coat that Nella had given her. Cissy must take it. She wouldn’t? Well, it could be tucked in when Cissy wasn’t watching. A little pile of extra handkerchiefs. These fancy garters ” Cecily, kettle in hand, came to the door and said, “The line is busy. I’ve tried and tried. Have you looked in my closet? Perhaps she didn’t take it,” and rushed away. It was not in the closet. Ann went downstairs to the telephone and listened to the small, quick thuds that informed her Ermintrude ■was talking to a friend. She waited for a few minutes and dialed the number again, and then again, but the thuds continued; so she went to the foot of the stairs and called to Cecily: “I’ll run over to the Hills and get her. It’s only a few blocks and it will be easier than fussing at this phone, and quicker. I’ll hurry.” Cecily answered, “Well —if you don’t mind. Ermintrude’s probably on the line. She may talk all night.” (To Be Continued) BUNKER. RAILWAY MAN NAMED ON TAX GROUP Committee This Week Will Meet to Draft Legislature Program.

TARZAN THE TERRIBLE

Backward, until it could but claw the air helplessly, Tarzan forced the beast's body. Instantly the shaggy black rushed in with drawn knife which it buried m the hybrid's heart. For a few moments Tarzan retained his hold, but when the furry form relaxed, he pushed it from him. . . . Across the limp figure of their common foe. the ape-man and the hairy pithecanthropus. who formerly had been locked in mortal combat, now stood facing each other.

Tarzan waited, ready either for peace or war. Presently two shaggy black hands were raised; the left hand was laid upon its own heart and the palm of its right hand touched Tarzan's breast. It was the same salutation that the man-thing had previously used to seal his alliance with Tarzan. Glad of even- ally he could win in this strange and savage world, Tarzan of the Apes quickly accepted the proffered friendship by making the same set of gestures.

—By Ahem

This brief ceremony ended, glancing toward the hairless pithecanthropus, Tarzan discovered that the latter had regained consciousness and was sitting erect, watching them intently. Now he arose and the shaggy black turned toward him, addressing him in what evidently was their common language. The harless one replied and then the two approached each other slowly.

Tarzan watched interestedly the outcome of their meeting. They halted a few paces apart, spoke rapidly though without excitement, each occasionally glancing and nodding toward Tarzan. It was plain to the ape-man that he was the subject of their conversation. Wondering just how they intended to act toward him, Tarzan held himself alert, ready for instant action if the weird pair decided to attempt his death.
