Then she and Dan were outside in the night Rill Pringle stood beside them on the steps. "Well,” he said gaily, ‘now* for the honeymoon’ You two want a cab. don t you?” He held up two fingers, whistled shrilly and a cab that had been cruising down the opposite side of Ihe street swerved to the eurb. Dan and Cherry got into the cab Pi ingle wared and disappeared down the street "The Remark hotel.” Dan instructed the rab driver. He said to Cherry. "Its all right, isn't it? Well find some place you'll like better in a day or t^o." "Its all right. Dan. Os course." The Bismarck was less than a dozen blocks away. The streets seemed singularly quiet, for it was s’lll early. In the darkness of the rab Cherry's face was barely visible A misty blur of whiteness. Dans arms gathered her close. "You darling!" he whispered. She raised her lips for the kiss but at that moment the glaring rays of a street lamp sheathed them with yellow electricity The cr.b halted for a traffic signal. Happily the cul smiled up at him "Mv—husband ." She said the words as though they were a litany Dans arm tightened "You're

Oh. you're so wonderful—!’ * ■ THE ecstasy was Interrupted abruptly as the cab jolted to a stop. Cherrv. stepping .to the sidewalk, could scarcely believe that she was the same girl who two hour* earlier had left the hotel, frightened and miserable. She glanced at Dan and thought how handsome and dependable he look. And he was her husband! . "Cap” Graham was still on duty at the hotel desk and Dan led Cherrv forward. "Id like to introduce an old friend," he said. "This is Mr. Graham. Generally known as ‘Cap.’ Cap—l want you to know my wife.” What? Sav—l'm glad to meet vou. Ma'am. But this is a surprise! Why—why, for merev sake. Ain’t you the one who was here a while ago? I mean—say !” Phillips grinned. "Take it easy, Cap. And aren't you going to congratulate me. You're the first one to hear the news." “You mean you've just been married? Well, say—! Is it really true?" "Certainly it's true." "Well. I declare! She's a pretty one. she is. though. And you've picked a good husband, too. Ma am." the old man assured Cherry. "One of the finest! I want to congratulate both of you. Yes. sir. Indeed I do!” The outer door opened and Dan turned. At his half-smothered exclamation Cherry whirled about A dozen men and women, laughing and calling out gaily, crowded into the hotel. They swarmed about Dan and Cherry. Bill Pringle appeared to be in the lead. "Here thev are:" the courthouse reporter rried "Here's she bride and bridegroom Look at 'em blushing folks! Who's going to be first !o kiss the bride?" Dan stepped out. smiling "Just a minute.' he protested. Say, what is this anyhow?" "We've come to help you celebrate," put in a small girl wearing a green hat. "Were all going cut tn Casey's and we re going to take you with us. For goodness sake, Dan. introduce us. can't you?” Phillips turned to Cherry. Halfwits." he said, grinning, “but they're harmless. My confreres of Ihe well-know n News." "Well, gang." he fared the newcomers. this is ceriamly a surprise--” "How about the surprise you pulled?" a bass voice railed out. Others chorused. “Speech! Speech!” "Nobody wants speeches." the girl In the green hat protested. This is supposed to be a party—■" xr a a DAN raLsfed a hand. "Ladies and gentlemen." he began, "allow me to present the one and only Mrs. Daniel Phillips, who has so graciously consented to bear the name and share the ancestral fortune of the house of Phillips—s9 15!" He pulled out a trouser pocket, turning if, inside out. "Give rm a bow. Cherrv That's the girl!” There were cheers and applause. I In a few moments all of them w*ere

outside Cherrv found herself wedged into the rear seat of an automobile intended for five passengers and carrying eight. Dan wa beside her and on the other side the" girl in the green hat whose name was Dixie Shannon. The name soundefl familiar and ’ Cherrys was sure she had seen it somewhere She learned almost immediatelv that Dixie wrote motion picture reviews for the News. Dixie was a friendly soul. See a picture with me some time,” she invited. "Any day you want. I'm always at the office around 10 ! o'clock. You can call me there." Cherry. * trifle bewildered, agreed All these strangers who laughed ' and joked and said such odd things were Dan s friends. She was ui> they were trying to be cordial, but she felt timid. Some of the things they said she scarcely understood. When Dan j joined in the joking, it made him seem almost a stranger, too. - A half hour s ride brought them to a large apartment house. The Caseys lived on the second floor By elevator and staircase the crowd of fourteen arrived at the door almost at the same time. Casev. so Dan informed Cherry', was telegraph editor of the News. A minute later she was being introduced to Mr. Casey himself. She likpd him instantly for his gray hair and crinkly blue eyes and the way that. he smiled at her. She liked Mrs. Casev. too. when she appeared a moment later. Mrs. Casey was plump and verypretty, Apparently impromptu parties at the Caseys were no novelty. “Trying to steal a march on us. were you?" Casey demanded of Dan. , "Well, we rouldn't. let you get away ' with It. Lucky devil you are. though. ; Going to let me kiss the bride?” He did and somehow Cherry did not mind. An angular youth in a dark suit had seated himself at a piano. Now he was crashing out the opening chords of the Lohengrin march. Cherry looked about for Dan and could not find him. Bill Princlc • came up. grinning. "Well," he asked, j "did we surprise you?" "Oh. you certainly did! I’ve never been more surprised in my life. I don't se how you managed it.” Easy." Bill told her. “As soon as I got hold of Fredericks i the clerk who had issued the licence'. I telephoned Shannon and Casey. They got the rest together and met at the office. "When I knew you'd gone back to the Bismark. I gave them a rail. Presto—that's all there was to it!” a a a / T'HE young man at. the piano *■ had been fJersuaded to abandon Lohengrin to provide accompaniment for a quartet. The singers' voires had more to recommend them in the way of volume than in tone. The quartet attempted "Oh. Promise Me." but gavp it up abruptly for "Call Me Sweetheart." : they liked this so well that they sang it twice. There were four young women in the crowd besides Dixie Shannon. Two w<*re the wives of reporters. A slim girl with red hair rut short and wearing a tailored j tweed suit was introduced as Doris Ware. Somp one told Cherry that Doris I covered news assignments on an ! equal footing with the men, and was considered one of the best feature writers in Wellington j Cherry was not surp she liked her. She thought Miss Ware was rathei reserved. Thp fourth girl was Connie Randolph from the society department, a tall, slender brunet whose black satin frock outlined her figure frankly. She barely had shaken hands with Cherry and then drifted away. Suddenly Cherry saw that rugs had been pulled back in the next room and that couples were dancing. She looked about again, rather anxiously, for Dan.

TARZAN AND THE ANT MEN

It was the offspring of the Alali, among whom the females were all-powerful, that Tarzan now faced. The young males did not attack him at once. They busied themselves fetching dry grasses and firewood. The girls approached the ape-man warily, with raised bludgeons, as the boys prepared the fire over which they expected soon to be broiling juicy cut* from the strange creature that their hairy dam had brought them. One of the males, a lad of 16. held back, making excited signs with handsj head and body.

There he was sitting in the far comer beaide Connie Randolph. They seemed to be in earnest conversation. Dixie Shannon’* gaze followed Cherry's. "Don't mind Connie.” Dixie said in an undertone "She's i the office vamp, but nobody take* her seriously. Connie was missing when they passed out the brains—and she's been missing ever since!" Louder she said, "Bill, will vou tell Dan we want him over here Tell him to make it pronto." The words were casual, but Cherry thought that beneath this assumed air Dixie was displeased Casey appeared bearing a tray

with glasses and a plate of sandwiches. There was an instant chorus of applause. Bill Pringle ! complied with Dixie's instructions and a moment later Dan reached Cherry's side. “Getting acquainted?” he asked, smiling. "They're a great bunch. Cherry . You'll be crazy about them all. Would It be too much of a favor to ask my wife If she and have the next dance with me?" Cherry flushed with pleasure as she arose: An orchestra half way across the continent was playing a melodic German waltz. The notes floated out sweet and clear from the radio. Dan and

He appeared to be trying to dissuade, or prevent, the girls from carrying out their plana. Nobody sided with him. At last, however. as the savage young female* were deliberate approaching the ape-man, he placed himself directly in their path and attempted to stop them. Instantly the three little demons swung their bludgeons and spraying forward to destroy him. He dodged, plucked several of the feathered stones from his girdle and flung them at his assailant*. So swift and accurate did the missiles speed that two girte dropped, howling, to Um grand-

Cherry never had danced together before, but their stepa matched perfectly. Dan whispered. “The next time we pass that door slip through it WeYe going to make a getaway. Mrs. Casey will help us.” Five minutes later they were hurrying down a rear s f airway. Another five minutes and Dan was helping Cherry into a taxicab. As the cab rolled along through the darkness Cherry thought. "This can't really be me! I can't believe so much could happen In twentyfour hours." Fortunate for her that she could

The older girl, nothing daunted, leaped forward. her face hideous in a snarl of rage. The youth cast another stone at her and then turned and ran toward the ape-man.

The youth signed back at her defiantly and stood his ground Tarzan reached over and patted him on the back, smiling. The bov bared his teeth, savagely, but it seemed evident he was trying to return the ape-man's smile. And now the girl was almost upon them. Tarzan was quite at a lo*s as how to proceed against her. His natural chivalry restrained him from killing her. While he steeled himself for the deed he loathed, he looked about for an avenue by which he might escape instead; and then came a totally unexpected Interruption.
