The stakes were unusually high that night, and we played late. I went home with him. t u Chichester was there, waiting for him. So I took him aside, and. ir.

whole town hummed with the news. Or.p night—it was at 'Whites—he confronted me, and—he gave me—the lie!” a a a THE viscount's fists were tight clenched, and he stared down blindly at the floor. “And, sir. though you'll scarcely credit it of course, I—there, before them all—--1 took it.” “Os course,’’ said Barnabas, "for her sake.” Beverley!” exclaimed the vis-! count, looking up with a sudden, light in his eyes. “Oh. Bev!” and their hands met and gripped. You couldn't do anything else, Dick.” No, Bev, no. but I'm glad you understand. Later it got about that I that I was—afraid of the fellow —he' c a dead shot, they say, young as h* is—and —well, it—it wasn’t pleasant, Bev. Indeed it got worse 1 until I called out one of Chiches- 1 ter's friends, and winged him—a j fellow named Dalton.” I think I’ve seen him,' said Barnabas. noddinc. Anyhow, Barrvmame was utterly discredited and done for—he's an outcast, and to be seen with him. or bis friends, is to be damned also.” And yet.” said Barnabas, sigh'ne and shaking his head, I must "all upon him tomorrow.” “Call upon him! Man—are you mad?” ‘‘No: but he is her brother, and—” | "And, as I tell you, he is banned by society as a cheat!” And is that so preat a sin, Dick?” Are there any—worse?” Oh. yes; one might kill a man in a duel, nr dishonor a trusting woman, or blast a man's character; . indeed it seems to me that there are many greater sins!” The viscount dropped bark :n his chair, and stared at Barnabas with horrified eyes. "My—dear—Beverley,” said he at; last, are you—serious?” 'My dear viscount—of. course I; am.” Then let me warn you. such' views will never do here; any one j holding such views will never sue- j ceeri in London.” “Yet I mean to try,” said Barna-; bas. squaring his jaw. But why,” said the viscount, impatiently. why trouble yourself about such a fellow?” Because she loves him. and because she asked me to help him.” “She asked—you to?” "Yes.” “And—do you think you cam?" *T shall trv.” •How?” First, by freeing him from debt." “Do vou know hirur-have you ever met him?” No, Dick, but I love his sister.” u u a ’" A ND because of this, you’d ZV. shoulder his debts? Ah, but vou can't, and if you ask me why, I tell you. because Jasper Gaunt has got him, and means to keep him. To my knowledge Barrymaine has twice had the money to liquidate his dwebt—but Gaunt has put him off. on one pretext or another, until the money has all slipped away. I tell you. Bev, Jasper Gaunt has pot him in his clutches—as he’s got Sling, and poor George Danbv, and—God knows how many more—as he'd get me if he could, damn him! Yes. Gaunt has got his claws into him. and he'll never let him go again—never.” "Then.” said Barnabas. "I must see Jasper Gaunt as soon as may he.” "Oh. by all means.” nodded the viscount, "if you have a taste for snakes, and spiders, and vermin of that sort. Slingsby will show you where to find him—Slingsby knows his den well enough, poor old Sling! But look to yourself, for spiders sting and snakes bite, and Jasper Gaunt does both.” (To Be Continued)

TARZAN THE INVINCIBLE

The warriors came on; and then of a sudden La saw one who came in advance of the others. Her heart leaped in her breast, and tears came to her eyes. “It is Tarzan! Jad-bal-ja. it is Tarzan!” she cried, the light of her great love illuminating her beautiful features.

“At last!'* exclaimed Tarzan as he stood facing La. “At last,” repeated the girl, “you have come back from your hunt.” “I came back immediately,’’ replied the man, “but you had gone. You should have known that I would not desert you. Have you been back to Opar?”

“Jad-bal-ja and I are on our way to Opar now.” said La. “I was lost for a long time, and then, too, I remained with a white man who was lost and sick with fever, until his strength came back.” “What was his name?” asked Tarzan. "Wayne Colt,” she replied.

“You liked him, La?” he asked. “Yes,” she said. “I liked him very much, but not in the same way that I like Tarzan.” He touched her shoulder in a half caress, and Iren he turned toward Opar. “Come,” he said, “the queen is returning to her throne.”
