NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FIFTEEN ‘"IXT’ELL, you are a fine one!" * * Rose exclaimed. Susan did not answer because for the moment she was too busy fumbling about in her purse for her key. She was conscious only of an exquisite sense of relief. It was enough to be safe at home with that nightmare behind her. [ "I waited and waited," Rose was saying bitterly. “There wasn’t anyone I knew to call, although I nearly did give Ben a ring." Susan gasped in horror. "Oh. thank Heaven, you didn’t!” "Well, I like that!" Rose stood transfixed, eyeing her. "You are a cool one! Here I’ve been fretting myself sick for the last three hours.” They were In the living room now > *nd Susan, having switched on the lights, sank into a comfortable chair. Rose pursued her grievance. “You haven’t even told me whom you ware with or anything," she said, annoyed. Susan could have laughed from sheer relief, but she didn't dare. Rose was so much in •a meet. "If you’ll just let me get my breath," Susan begged, “I’ll tell you all about it. “I don't blame you a bit for being furious, but honestly it wasn’t all

my fault. I tried to break away hours ago. It was ghastly!" She shuddered at the memory. How could she have been such a fool as to envy other girl* those casual "dates” they boasted of! She knew now that she had been better off at home with Aunt Jessie sewing or reading, no matter how much she had resented the dullness of it. Well, she had had her lesson. She interrupted Rose's continued plaint to cross the room and stare at herself in the mirror. "Do I look older?" she inquired. "I feel it—years and years.” “You look a fright,” Rose assured her with a best friend s frankness. “You’re pale as a ghost and there are rings under your eyes.” Susan slipped an arm around Rose's waist. “Please don't be so cross,” she said. Then to an accompaniment of “ohs” and “ahs” and “I don’t believe it” she poured out the whole story of her adventure. When she had finished, Rose said with emphasis, "I hope this will be a lesson to you. Now let’s go to bed!” That was all. Having said her say, Rose was content to forget the affair and Susan was grateful to her. She knew the story would travel no further. She thought she never would drop off to sleep, but so superb was her health and so clear her conscience, now that her fault was confessed, that in five minutes she was breathing deeply and evenly, safe in the land of dreams. b a a 'T'HE next morning, however, the -*• ordeal came flooding back to her. She began to worry. What if Mr. Heath should find out? What if Ray should talk? Susan knew her own conduct would bear a close scrutiny, but she also knew how such matters can be distorted. She arrived at the office in a fever of apprehension. Everything seemed quite as usual. There was Pierson at his high desk with his ledgers spread out before him. There was the neat little pile of mail to be sorted and, in five
minute*, there wa* Mr. Heath, dapper and well groomed as ever. Susan felt like a thief and a coward a* she returned hi* cheery good morning. Quite well she knew what would be hi* opinion of her part in last night's entertainment. Bhe valued hi* esteem. It had, in fact, become necessary and important to her. Because she was a woman, she knew that esteem had been increasing of late. Little things that had happened, words dropped by Pierson, the occasional flash of approbation from Heath's keen eyes had told her that. “Do you have that Walker correspondence?” he asked. She had, and laid it before him. “Good girl,” he smiled at her. “You seem to know what I want these days before I know myself.” Susan flushed, deeply and rosily. This was high praise, indeed, from Ernest Heath. Confusedly she murmured her thanks. The went on with the morning's work and nothing more of a remotely personal nature passed between them. Still the glow remained. Susan feit. It and Ernest Heath felt it. The man thought, “Dash it all, that’s a nice girl and a smart one, too. I shall be almost sorry to see Miss O’Connell come back.” Treason indeed this was to Miss O’Connell, who for seven years had toled over hi* files, had worked overtime without complaint, had bought birthday presents for his wife, who had, in fact, been the perfect model of a selfless secretary! Susan thought. “I feel a hypocrite letting him say that.” But the glow warmed her just the same. She went about all day with the lift in her heart. It seemed a divine dispensation that Jack Waring had been sent to South Bend that morning. Susan had a little more time to compose herself for the ordeal of meeting him again. When it actually did happen, it was not nearly so bad as she had expected. The South Bend business dragged on for days and it was not until the following week that she and Waring met. There was a brief interchange of greetings. The man was as cool and composed as if they were complete strangers. Susan, answering his "good morning” as calmly as possible, began to think she had dreamed the episode of the kiss. She felt immensely relieved. ‘‘Well, that’s that,” she told herself. What she had been dreading so had come to pass and proven her fears groundless. Maybe life was always like that. She hoped so. an SUSAN had been avoiding Ray ever since the night the latter and Schuyler Webb ha'd completed the foursome. But she could not do this forever. Ray’s puppy-like friendliness knew no reserves and recognized few rebuffs. There came the inevitable day when Susan lunched with Ray again. Ray’s lunch orders always were faintly preposterous. Her favorite selection was a ham and cheese sandwich, a bowl of baked beans and a chocolate malted milk. It was what she had ordered today. Susan watched the other girl, fascinated. Ray was talking volubly, "I said to mamma, I said, ‘lt’s funny, but I haven’t seen a thing of Susan since the night we ! had the double date?’” She sank her sharp, little white teeth into the appalling sandwich and continued in a slightly muffled voice, “I said it’s funny, but it kinda I

> CO The distance between two cities is 368 miles. How much will a round trip ticket cost, at 3.5 cents per mile, if the purchaser of the ticket gets off the train half way back home? ft
Yesterday’s Answer
Three-fourths of a score (15) added to five-sixths of a dozen (10) equals 25. This, multiplied by one-third of a gross (48) equals 1200. Take 12 from that one hundred times (or 1200) and the answer is nothing.
TARZAN THE TERRIBLE

A lucky accident had made known to the ape-man the rapid course of events which had occurred in A-lur while he was struggling to escape from the gryf's pit. Now he was following. in disguise, behind Pan-sat. the high priest's trusted messenger. At last the underpriest emerged into the courtyard beyond the temple, and shortly after Tarzan did likewise. Here the ape-man went his own way. His priestly disguise disarmed all suspicion. He reached the Forbidden Garden undetected and climbed over its high wall.

seemed like Susan didn't have a good time that night.” Ray’s round, incredibly fringed eyes searched Busan's. The other girl wriggled uncomfortably. “What I always say is.” Ray went on, “when you get a fellow who’* a good spender like Waring you ought to be thankful. “Most of these kids around are penny pinchers, and if they take a girl to a movie they think they're showing her high life or something. Waring'* different. He knows his way around, and baby, can he dance?”

■ -- , .V-v, . ■ Susan started to speak, but, discovering Ray’s question had been purely rhetorical and * reply was not expected, she sank back In her chair again. The monolog continued. “If a girl played her cards right and was really smart, I think she could land Waring. He’s making good money” (Susan wondered irrelevantly what other sort of money there might be) "and I think he'd like to get married again.” m m m SHUSAN made a low sound which might have been interpreted as surprise or agreement.
The garden was deserted; yet he knew that she he sought must be here somewhere. A light flickered from the sleeping apartment of the princess O-10-a. To his surprise the place was unguarded. As he stole through several apartments he heard voices raised in anger and excitement. Making his way toward the sound he drew the skin hangings slightly and looked within. Two women were battling with a Ho-don warrior. At the moment the ape-man saw them the warrier had seized one by the hair and bent over her with raised knife.
“Ye*, he’s a funny guy,” Ray pursued, demolishing the last crust and beginning on the baked bean*. "He was married a long time, you know, and his wife gave him the run-around. "I think ” finished Ray, “if the girl wa* the right kind—what I mean, had a little life in her and so forth —he might turn out to be a good husband.” Demurely Susan inquired what Ray’s idea of a good husband might be. Ray expounded her theory gladly. "Well, first of all, I think a man shouldn’t expect a girl ever to put

Casting aside the encumbering headdress of the dead priest, the ape-man leaded across the intervening space and, grasping the brute from behind, struck him a single, terrible blow. As the creature fell forward dead, the two women recognized Tarzan simultaneously. “Tell me,” he cried. “Where is the white woman Ja-don brought here from the temple?” “Mo-sar, the father of this thing,” replied O“carried her away but a few moments ago.” “Which way?” cried Tarzan. Pan-at-lee replied; “He must have gone toward his own city on the Dark Lakel”
her hands In dish water," she said. “When I get married Tm going to live in a hotel and have all the meal* sent up. “I’m going to have a mink coat and a permanent wave every three months. Not one of these.” <she touched her yellow locks disdainfully), “not one of these, but an expensive one at that place on Michigan avenue. Then I want a sporty roadster and a chow or maybe— I don't know—a Pekingese.” Ray’s expression was rapt and soulful. Susan wanted to laugh, but dared not. As if interpreting her

Tarzan disappeared as quickly as he had come. He searched the outskirts of the city until nearly dawn, but discovered no trace of the perfidious Mo-sar or the stolen woman. Often during the night he encountered stray bands of fighters still continuing their battle to thwart the high priest's plan to seize the palace. Several times he joined a scattered force of Ja-don s until they had won. As the sun rose, confident that his beloved was not in the temple or palace. Tarzan turned toward Mo-sar's stronghold, Ta-lur, the Dark City,

"You want to take some advice from me,” she said oracularly. “You want to work things the right way and you 11 go over big—what I mean, like a million dollars. “But you can’t go out on parties and pull a long face and expert the boys to like it.
