She had sent the chauffeur home because she didn't want any one to know about her going to see Philip. She had murmured something about uncertainty of plans and dismissed Hutten. “I I had some shopping to do," #he stammered, “and you know how difficult it is to park cars near ” I fear I quite understand," he responded levelly, crisply. She raised | surprised eyes and, as she saw his fare, here color receded. • I must remind you," Barrett went on inflexibly, • that I told you several 1 weeks ago I would not have you in- j dulging in flirtations.’’ "Why, Barrett!" she stammered. “You were with Bobby Telfare all afternoon," he stated. “But I wasn’t!’’ She was stung by the Injustice. “Did you have a pleasant time with Bessie?’’ he asked. “I had a loveiy afternoon,” she answered, not quite evenly. She would have gone on to tell him that she had one elsewhere, but he looked at his watch, murmured an excuse, and left the room. Alone, she stood with tears brimming in her eyes and teeth set on her lower lip. Such a reception—after the morning* a a tt HIGGINS tapped on her door at six to say that Mr. Barrett was dining out. Would she like her dinner served on a little table near the library fire? He saw her swallow convulsively before she responded. “That would be very nice,” she said, lifting her head. Obviously, she decided when the door was closed on Higgins and she was alone again, Barrett regretted his softening toward her that morning. She regretted it, too. The moment of tenderness had given her sueh high hopes. She laughed bitterly at the thought. What a fool she had been to think a kiss from him could mean anything, when once before he had shown how lightly he considered such a caress. At the end of the stipulated year she would work. She would not take a cent from him! She wished she could be working now. She did her best to eat. She didn’t want the servants to know how utterly Barrett’s chill, disapproving eyes had crushed her. In spite of determination she could do no more than dally with her food. It choked and sickened her. Having eaten, she went to the drawing room, sat down at the piano and played the gayest tunes. Higgins, hearing her, guessed something of her mood. “Poor young thing!” he thought. “Another quarrel and her heart is breaking from it.” But Higgins was not worried. The couple had quarreled before and made up that quarrel almost immediately. “Tomorrow.” he decided, putting silver away in its canton flannel beds, “they'll be thick as thieves, calling each other 'heart's desire’ and the like.” On the morrow, the butler con-

WA FAMOUS FLAVOR sis

' eluded the quarrel had been worse than he thought. Barrett and Elinor | scarcely spoke at all. The evening meal was the only one they ate to- ' gcther. Elinor looked pitifully uni happy, and Barrett's expression was grimly blank. He left the house ! almost immediately after the meal and she made no attempt to enter- j ! tain herself. Instead, she sat In her dimly-lit j sleeping room, staring ahead, realizing she had been a fool again and j that love could show the way to : agony, ' Never again!" she vowed to herself. "Never again!" a a a TOWARD the close of a cold and dismal April, Doctor Moran ' ordered Elinor's father to a milder 1 climate. Aiken was chosen, and j Bentwell Stafford, with two nurses j and Elinor, departed. To leave New York was a relief to I the girl. She had suffered acutely j since the afternoon Bobby Telfare j had picked her up on a street corner I where she waited for a taxicab to ' take her home. “Happy?” Bobby had asked hoi- I lowly after she had urged him to j hurry if he could because she was J late. “Very” Elinor answered with com- : plete sincerity. She had not been happy since. Sometimes she thought wistfully that Bob Telfare who was dull and unexciting had at least been kind and fair. He was not hot and then cold, as Barrett. No, that wasn't quite true. [ Barrett was no longer warm of i heart; he was steadily cold. Their j chess games had been abandoned. He no longer came to the drawing room at the tea hour to talk over events of the day and hear her play. They had not been to the theater together since that miserable afternoon. Elinor had tried to fill her days and for the most part had succeeded. She had grown thin and her eyes met Barrett's wistfully when he looked her way, which was rarely. He feared her and what she might do to him. Each time she was out of the house he was sure she was with Bobby Telfare. Marcia had seen j them together and spoken of it to Barrett in a casual, light way. It ! seemed to Elinor that each time she | stepped from the door she was sure | to meet Bobby somewhere and be | obliged to speak a word or two to him. Barrett was certain that she went to lower New York to spend hours with Telfare. a o a HE plunged into work with a zest that was fanatic—writing | arranging new exhibits, appraising I them. He helped Flinders with his ! plans for an expedition, taking over all the dull details such as ordering j tin dippers, pickaxes and soap. He ! found time to write a series of ar- | tides. And yet he couldn’t keep busy j enough to forget his heartache. He thought he would feel some relief with Elinor away. He found, | instead, endless worry and conjeci ture. In the silence of the house which j seemed cold, no matter what the { temperature, he wondered what she ; might be doing. He wished the year they had I agreed their marriage should enj dure would come to an end. The ! name of Colvin always had been kept free from scandal. Marcia’s | affair had been underhanded and | cheap but legal enough. She had been married to Lon Moore who i had abandoned trysts with her j when he found she could not give | him the wealth he had supposed i was hers. Lon had died before Marcia’s and Barrett’s father left i them his fortune. Elinor was aware that Aiken was ! a very pleasant place. The sunshine was warming and the air soft, | the hills and valleys green and the | view from the house they had taken. | charming. (To Be Continued)

TARZAN THE APE MAN

Near an African river, James Parker kept a general trading store. John Holt was his junior partner. One morning the two of them seemed to be engrossed in something of great importance. Parker was questioning Z'wanga, a wily old native. Pointing to a spot on a local map. he said: ‘ Somewhere around there?”

“Apana,” replied Z'wanga. “Well, there?” asked Parker, moving his finger to another spot on the map. “Apana,” still answered the wizened old chief. “Not very helpful, is he?” commented Holt. “Perhaps he doesn't want to be,” grumbled Parker as he pointed out a different locality.

This tin-3 there was a gleam of something in eyes as he broke into voluble Swahili. Parker smiled, saying: “Ah—not so certain about that, are you?” “I didn't get all that,” said Holt. Riano, a young native who had been interpreting Z'wanga's speech, translated:

“He say mutia escarpment, ‘great barrier.’ Too high—even for eagles. Many years white men with big safari try. Mountain too strong— they, never come back.” “That's all we can get out c* him,” said Parker impatiently. “Take him away, Riano.” As they left, Parker watched them thoughtfully.
