NOW OO ON WITH THE STORY „ CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT SATURDAY afternoon Arlene received a telephone rnessa? a from Sam. who was coming to take her to dinner at anew seafood grill at One Hundred and Fifth street. Fmc’ Mona* boarding house was on One Hundredth street. Arlene invited Eve and Mona to ride home with her and Sam. At 6 the four met outside Bixby’s. Arlene insisted that Eve should ride with Sam while she shared the rumble seat with Mona. Eve entered into a lively discussion with Sam on the subject of advertising and was impressed by his shrewd- 1 ness and vision. The ride to One ' Hundredth street seemed, short. Mona led Eve to her room on the third floor of th“ green frame dwelling It was an at*rartive room with a dormer containing three small windows. The girls removed their wraps and went down stairs to dinner, j Eve glanced about her as she en,tered the spacious dining room. lEveidently a wall had been removed and two 100 ms thrown into one. Tables seemed to be everywhere with chatting groups about them. Most of the diners were women. “But leave it to Mona!" thought Eve as she followed the other girl to a small table at which were seated an elderly woman and a young man. The young man flashed Mona a quick smile. She Introduced Eve and then explained that Mr Miller roomed in the neighborhood, but came here for his meals. Eve felt an uncomfortable third party as the conversation between the two grew animated. Later, when it was suggested that the three of them should go for a ride in Mr. Miller’s car. Eve pleaded a headache and asked to be dropped off at her home. ‘ But the ride will cure your headache!” Miller insisted. “Miss Allen and I often drive after dinner. Come on—the more the merrier, you know!" a tt a EVE went for the ride. With Mona monopolizing the conversation. there was little for Eve to do but gaze at the early November landscape as they' whirred over the country roads. She wondered if it were not time to turn back just as they came to a brightly-lighted place called Toby’s Tavern. “All out!” called Mona gaily. "Oh. are you going in there?” Eve asked in dismay. It will be fun:” answered Mona emphatically. “We’ll have a sip and a bite and a dance or two.” "All right. I'll wait for you here in the car.” Eve said as she stepped out to let Mona alight. The other girl grew impatient. She took Eve's arm and pushed her toward the entrance. ‘"Oh. come out of your character!” she snapped. Eve entered with them. Aft< v all. none of her friends were likely to see her here, she thought with relief. The place looked rather questionable to her. The lights were colored and gave a dim effect. Little booths lined the walis and they entered one of them There were benches and a table of rough wood, badly scarred with carved initials. Eve was surprised when Mona and Miller ordered sandwiches and coffee. It had been such a short time since dinner. At first Eve refused to order anything, but later she

compromised and asked the waiter to bring her a pineapple ice. "Will you excuse us while we dance?' Miller asked as he and Mona arose. No sooner were they on the floor and out of sight than Theron Reece appeared in the entrance of the booth. Eve was startled. "Don’t be afraid of me." he said smoothly. "I won’t tell your hubby I found you here. Expecting some one?” "You know I’m not!” she answered heatedly. "Then you can’t mind If I sit down.” he responded. “You must be pretty lonely. Will you have a drink?” He pulled a flask from his hip pocket. earn Eve felt trapped. It was a firstclass little frame-up, she thought. She had not been aware that Reece was in town, but apparently he kept in touch with Mona. Now the incident of Mona's automobile accident came to Eve’s mind. Arlene had always ruspected that the man in the case was Reece. The injured man must have recovered, as no more had been heard of the affair. But what might this night’s events lead to? Her thoughts raced wildly, trying to decide what she could do. Mona and Miller seemed to be gone a long time. Only once had they danced past the booth where Eve sat. She began to fear they had left the place. Reece carried on a one-sided cqnversation. "Do you know. I’ve always admired you?” he murmured, sliding a hand arrossS the table. Eve instinctively drew back into a corner. Once more he poured liquor from his flask and offered her a drink. Eve’s anger mounted. "I like you that way,” Reece said. "Little girl’s got a temper, hasn’t she?” He arose and started toward her side of the table. Before he could slide to the bench with her, Eve sprang to her feet and ran blindly from the booth. Out of the building, across the lighted area and toward a clump of trees, she made | her way. Reece was following, but Eve eluded him. She managed to avoid stumbling and slipped along parallel to the road through the darkness. She thought he must have turned back, for not long afterward an auI tomobile approached slowly and she hid behind the trunk of a tree uni til it had passed. Before long the machine returned . and after a brief stop at Toby’s tav- ' em slowly went in the opposite direction. Reece, no doubt, was looking for her. Eve decided to walk until she came to a trolley. Each time an automobile approached she hid until it had passed. She met no pedestrains on the lonely road. Her ankles were tired from walking on spiked heels and she felt sick with nervous fear. Still she trudged on for what seemed miles and miles. a a a FINALLY she came to a farmhouse bearng a sign “Tourists ; Welcome." Eve rang the doorbell | and when a motherly looking wom- : an with graying hair answered she J changed her mind about asking for 1 directions but asked instead if she could stop for the night. She was I shown to a spic and span room with pink rag rugs and a Jenny Lind j bed. Then the farmer's wife turned to her and said. “I'll just send pa out after your baggage. Did you want to drive your car into the barn for ‘ the night?” When Eve told her she had no | car and baggage but offered to pay ! her immediately, her hostess looked dubious, went below- evidently to consult “pa.” She returned soon, smilingly reassuringly. “It’ll be all right, miss." she said. Did you want to come and set with us a while in the living room or did you want to go to bed?” (To Be Continued)

With his Tarzan had raced toward the strange scent. When from afar he saw Parker's safari, curiosity impelled him to follow. He watched their losing fight with the hippos as they crossed the river, and saw with wonder the bravery of the white she.

It was he who had saved the safari when he warned the hippos to come no further, and he who terrified the pygrpies into flight. Then followed those events when some vague desire prompted him to steal the white she who now shrank from him on the tree bough.

Soon Tarzan lost interest in the sleeve he Jiad torn from Jean's olouse; his eyes fixed upon the desperate and afraid girl once again. His hand went out toward her. But just before he touched Jean he stopped, stiffened and began sniffing the wind.

He looxed down. Two leopards were standing at the foot of the tree, looking up. One of them sprang into the lower branches. The girl was terrified. But Tarzan looked like a man who has a congenial job to do. He swung down through the tree, drawing his knife.
