I like her nerve!" And. sure enonvh, betor' 1 loiitr Miss McElhinliev did assume that privilege. But Eve found Miss Leeds, who shared the third floor apartment with Miss McElhinney, most agreeable company. Miss Leeds seemed to have little time and devoted most of her evening to work she had brought home from school or else to studv. •She's exactly the sort of person who should be instructing children.” Eve told Dick. "She takes herself and her work seriously but at the same time she has a sense of humor. I like her.” For several years Dick had subscribed to a magazine devoted to pictures and stories of foreign lands. He offered to lend Miss Leeds his file of back copies and she was delighted. "Always Ihe bitter with the sweet, the thorn with the rase!” said Eve one night when she and Dick had folded their steamer chairs and gone upstairs to their rooms. "How happy we could be at the office if it were not for Mona Allen. And how happy our evenings at home would be if it were not for Dorothy McElhinney.” She was to remember that little sp ch a long, long time and to look back on those evenings that had been comparatively free from worry. Atlas Coupler, the stock Eve had bought, was being discussed generally now by those interested in the market and was highly recommended as an investment, a a a AND then Atlas Coupler began to recede. The fiirst day’s slump of two points did not disturb Eve. Even four days of decline did not frighten her because she had enormous faith in the issue. Charles, the office boy, had instructions from Eve to wait at the corner each day until the stock edition newspapers made their appearance and then to bring her a copy without delay. Arlene, tense and nervous. could scarcely wait until Eve banded the paper to her. Now Atlas Coupler was down 13 points and Eve wondered what would happen next. Eacty time it dropped Arlene figured her loss in terms of what, she would have purchased had she not invested her money. • There goes that Agnes hat I craved! ’ she said first. Then. "There goes that new three-quarter length la pin coat I counted on.” Eve was glad Arlene took her losses so good-naturedly. She felt responsible. Atlas Coupler would surely recover within a few days, she felt. But Atlas Coupler did not recover. Eve was in conference with Earle Barnes at 10 one morning the following week. The advertising manager's telephone rang and with

1a frown of annoyance, he lifted the receiver and clipped a brief "yes?” "It's for you,” he said, handing the Instrument to Eve. j . "Sloan Sanford Company speaking.” boomed a stern, masculine voice. "Atlas Coupler has reached a new low and to all appearances it going lower. We must be fn position to know that you will cover your interest or we shall be obliged to make other disposition of the stock.” man I'' VE'S face blanched to the lips. Barnes must have heard, beraiise the voice over the wire carried so clearly. Why—why!” she stammered, i What do you advise me to do?” "If we can rely on you to send your check for S2OO within the next twenty-four hours we can keep you on our books. Otherwise we will have to sell your holdings, which j w ill mean a .total loss to you.” Eve thought rapidly. I "I'll be in this noon to cover my interest,”'sh° promised. Barnes looked at her quizzically. No doubt he was curious about what had happened. Eve thought. Immediately she tried to concentrate on Barnes’ plan for a June campaign featuring sports goods. He was talking about improvising a log cabin on the third floor and having Mrs. Penney paint the scenery. "Heavens,thought Eve, "w r here will I get that $200?" Wh°n the conference was over Eve departed, hoping she had missed 1 no details of Barnes’ plan. Eve hurried to her desk telephone : and called Dick's number. She had no reserve fund; her money was all invested in Atlas Coupler. She had even borrowed from hpr mother, j "Dick." Eve begged, "can you come I downtown and meet, me at the City bank at noon? It's very Important.” "I'll be waiting for you in the lobby.” he answered briefly. Dick must be busy, Eve thought. Perhaps there was someone with ! him or he would have said mor®. Arlene finally reappeared with her notebook and pencil. “I’ll never be able to read these hieroglyphics,” she said as she sat down at her ! typewriter to transcribe tne notes. ["Barnes is in a hurry for these letters and I'm as nervous as a cat! I I'll see you later.” Eve gathered up several sheets of copy paper and a pencil and then went to the sports goods department to lay plans for the June campaign. When she returned Barnes was j standing at Arlene’s desk, taking 'up the letters as rapidly as she j transcribed them. Poor Arlene! That act in itself was enough to make a stenographer nervous. It was Just 12 o'clock. Eat hurried out of the building to keep her appointment. with Dick. She would have to wait until later to talk to I Arlene. She entered the revolving door of the bank. And then she saw him! Dick's face lighted with a glad I smile but Eve's froze in horror. It was not because he was smoking his old briar pipe in a nonchalant j manner. Here, in the midst of hurrying, well-groomed men and women, Dick had the temerity to be wearing his old slouch hat, baggy trousers and blue flannel shirt. And his coat had a streak of paint on one sleeve. What was more, he seemed entirely unconscious of his shocking appearance and was coming toward her. j "Dick!” Eve reproached him. "I didn't dream you'd come down in those old clothes!” "Well.” he said easily, “there was concrete to pour today so I didn't wear my tuxedo to work. Anyhow. I didn't have time to go home to I change.” (To Be Continued) The Pinnacles National Monument in California is one of the last strongholds and breeding places of the California condor, largest bird in the state.

TARZAN THE APE MAN

Jean s disappearance was a total mystery to her father. In the excitement of the pigmies’ sudden coming and going, she might have cried out and he had not heard. Frantic, he ran about calling loudly: "Jean! Jean!” Riano was about to shoot Into the woods.

Knocking Rianos gun down, Parker cried: •‘Don't shoot —you fool!” Then, amazed, he caught sight of a bronzed body swinging through the trees. It was the ape-man! Parker saw him toss Jean up to an ape. perched on a higher limb. The girl was apparently unconscious.

The ape caught the limp body and disappeared. They saw the ape-man follow. Parker ran. his men behind him. For a while they were able to follow the flight of Tarzan. but presently they lost track. As they stood listening. Holt came runnfng to the scene, calling excitedly: "Parker! What is it?"

—By Edgar Rice Burroughs

Jean’s father was too stunned to reply. Holt shook him, yelling: "What's happened?" All Parker could gasp, was: “Jean! Jean! Riano pointed up into the trees. Holt saw nothing but the darkened jungle's green. And then, suddenly, he understood! The girl he loved had been stolen by the ape-man!
