He couldn't understand how she felt about D: k her husband. If Dick who believed her to be so innocent should I*arn the truth about her marri.ii * o Lon Moore it would be a fatal blow p would kill Dick’ He never, never would forgive the fact, tha? sh*> had lied to him It was on one of the hottest afternoon in June that Marcia called at her brother's home Higgins open'd th door for her. He said "Mr and Mrs Colvin are expecting Jou, Miss Martya She heard music as she moved toward the drawing room Elinor find Barrett w-'re there. For a moment Marcia studied them from the doorway Barrett stood with his arms on the piano, staring down at the girl Marcia had never seen him before with that look of adoring tenderness Elinor s face was raised to his and she was smiling They were obviously devoted to . ach other. "Well!" said Marcia loudly*, blithely. The two at the piano started. Barrett turned and called out warmly, “Hello!" He was too happy, she saw. to hold resentment. Elinor rose "I'm so glad to see you. Marcia!" She exclaimed. "Darling child!” Marcia murnmri and. kissing Elinor. My heavens but you look lovely! Lovely!" “I happen to think so. too." Barrett said slowly Witn a quick shy glance at him, Elinor flushed. Marcia felt herself hardening a. she stared at Barrett She had thought him to be devoted to her but she realized now he had giver her only the surface of his love crumbs from his table. It was not a pleasant thought for one of Marcia's temperament. a a a SHF settled herself in a chair "Tell me. was Cuba amusing?' she asked. "Rather.” said Barrett, again looKing at Elinor. "I've always beer attracted by the place. Did you like it. too. dear?’ Marcia went on. turning to Elinor "Oh. I adored it!” the girl answered. "You two talk just the way Dick and I did about Dick's piuce ir Canada where we spent our honeymoon. But you aren't honeymooppis and haven't that excuse.” Mar cia murmured. To herself shi thought. "What in the world car make Elinor flush so?" "We really were delighted witl the trip.” Barrett stated hurriedly Barrett, drawing his chair close: to Elinor's, reached for an end o the string sash she wore about he: frock and ran it through his lingers He had to bo near Elinor.

The lazy, cumbersome animal spends much time in one tree, and feeds almost entirely on the leaves of the cecropia. It can go so long without food old-time naturalists believed it lived on air alone. NEXT: What gender are tortoise-shell cats?

SWEETIE .Ttfl BREATH

Rame of Jealousy in her heart that was disconcerting. Elinor asked about the baby and immediately Marcia was off. She related with elaborate detail just how the baby smiled. theVway he looked while sleeping. She missed not a bead of the rosary every proud mother tells, but she saw in her listeners no tendency to smile at boredom as so many listeners do. Instead, she felt she had their whole-hearted attention. You've been sweet about listening to all this." Marcia admitted when at last she had finished. But it's .so wonderful—having a baby for ones own! I cant help babbling. I hope some day you'll understand." "I hope so.” said Elinor, and blushed. a a a A GAIN. Barrett was looking at Elinor with that humble, adoring look. He laid his hand upon Elinors. He had to make a trip downtown, and Marcia volunteered to give him a lift. Before her. and much to her amusement, he said his good-by to Elinor, kissing her, and adding: Don t forget me!” He tried to make it seem a joke, but quite obviously it was more than that. "It looks as if life were happy for vou, Barry," Marcia commented, after they were on their way. Happy doesn't half express it,’ he responded. "I'm so glad.” she commented She assured herself that she really was eiad And yet Barrett's intatuation menaced her. When she had been a child. Barrett always had been willing to do anything to stop her tears. Now that was changed! A fool could see that Elinor ruled him, or could rule him if she wanted to. When Barrett returned home at a bit after 6 he found Lida Stafford sitting with Elinor As Lida greeteed him. she gave him a sly glance and a smile which he knew Elinor noted. A little* time passed and then Lida arose. Run in to see me tomorrow morning, will you, Barry’?" she asked sweetly. “I have some business with which I want help.” Again the sly glance. It was a command, cloaked mockingly in the tone'of an appeal. Elinor and Barrett dined leisurely, played two games of chess, and then Barrett read aloud an article he had liked and that he felt Elinor would like. Later ’hat night when they were upstairs she called through the open door between their rooms, “Oh, Barry—!” "Yes. dear!” he answered. He knew at once that it was coming—the question he would rather not have her ask and to which he must respond with a lie. "May I come in. Barry?” He had taken off his coat and was fumbling with the studs in the front of his shirt as she entered. Elinor was swathed in a negligee of yellow chiffon. It was the color most becoming to her. setting high lights of gold dancing in her hair. BUB SHE sat down on a low stool and watched him. frowning at himself in the mirror. These things are obstinate.” he murmured. Then, triumphantly, j “There we are!" He was hoping that he could divert her. He did not want her to ask. "What makes mother look at ! you the way she does. Barry?” If she asked that or anything like that | he would have to find some way of evading. Her smile became a trifle stiff, and he saw that her eyes were* wistful, frightened. Always, before when she had come into his room, he had dropped everything to welcome her. Elinor noted his preoccupation. She told herself that she should have realized his devotion, all those little attentions, could not last. (To Be Continued)

Her father did not tell Jean he meant to search for the elephant s graveyard. He did not want her a'np. "I wonder if you know what a safari means?” "I think so.” replied his daughter. "Dis-comfort-aches and pains—insects all over me—fever—horrible food —danger perhaps—and heavenly excitement!”

Parker s expression showed he thought it useless to say more. Just then there arose weird cries and discordant sounds of drums, outside. Jean crossed to the window. "Who are they?” she exclaimed. ‘ The Wacumbas—old Chief Gnau,” replied her father, •‘come to trade.”

Jean, making a last adjustment in her dress, said: All right—let’s trade then.” "Here.” exclaimed Parker, "you’re butting into my business.” "I’M taking charge, darling.” she replied, and calling to Beamish: "Beamish, the Wacumbas have come to trade. Get the trinkets and the blankets and the salt.”

—By Edgar Rice Burroughs

Beamish fairly beamed his approval. "Lor* bless you miss—if you ain’t a chip off the old block. ’ He began digging into the trade goods as Jean left the store followed by Parker. Outside, the natives were assembling, the younger vamors indulging in a grotesque dance to their own delight and Jean's amusement.
