Barnabas.” she whispered, “won't you—kiss me ■—first?” “Madam,” said he, “can the mere kiss of an—innkeeper’s son restore your dead faith?” Nowr when he had said this, Cieone shrank in his embrace and uttered a loud cry as if he had offered her some great wrong, and. breaking from him, was gone before him up the stair, running in the dark. So Barnabas hurried after her nnd thus, as she threw open Barrymain es door he entered with her and. in his sudden abasement, would have knelt to her, but Ronald B ircymaine had sprung up from the cruch and now leaned there, staring with dazed eyes like one newwakened from sleep.

il shall n-never see you again. I suppose you thought it was m-money I wanted, but no—it's not that. I wanted to say good-by bej cause you see I’m g-going away—tonight!” “Going away, Ronald?" she repeated. sinking to her knees beside the rickety couch. “Dear boy, where are you going—and why?” “I’m g-going far away—because I must—the s-sooner the better ” he whispered, struggling to his elbow to peer into the comer again. “Yes, the s-sooner the better. But, before I go I want you to promise—to swear, Clo—to s-swear to me—” Barrymaine sat up suddenly and. laying his nervous hands upon her .'houlders, leaned down to her in ; fierce eagerness, “You must s-swear 'o me n-never to see or have anything to do with that d-devil, Chichester, and ye hear me, Clo, and ye hear ! me?” “But—oh, Ronald. I don’t understand, you always told me he was your friend, I thought ” “Friend!” cried Barrymaine passionately. “He’s a devil, I tell you he’s a d-devil, oh ” Barrymaine choked and fell back gasping: but, even as Cieone leaned above him all ; tender solicitude, he pushed her aside and. springing to his feet, reached out and caught Barnabas by the arm. “Beverley,” he cried, “you'll shield her from him—w-when I'm gone. 1 you’ll look after her, won’t you. Beverley? She’s the only thing I ever loved—except my accursed self. You will shield her from—that | d-devil ” Then, still clutching Barnabas, he turned and seized Cleone’s hands. “Clo!” he cried, “dearest of .sisters, if ever you need a f-friend when I'm gone, he’s here. Turn to him, Clo—look up—give him your hand. Y-you loved him once, I think, and you were right—quite right. You can t-trust Beverley, Clo—g-give him your hand.” “No, no!” cried Cieone, and, snatching her fingers from Barrymaine's clasp, she turned away. “What—you w-won’t ” “No—never, never!” “Why not? Answer me Speak, I tell you!” But Cieone knelt there beside the couch, her head proudly averted, uttering no word. “Wny, you don't think, like so many of the fools, that he killed Jasper Gaunt, do you?” cried Barrymaine feverishly. “You don't think he d-did it, do you—do you? Ah, but he didn’t—he didn’t, I tell you, and I know—because——” “Stop!” exclaimed Barnabas. “Stop—no, why should I? She’ll learn soon enough now and I’m m-man enough to tell her myself— I'm no c-co\vard, I tell you ” a a tt npHEN Cieone raised her head and looked up at her half brother, and in her eyes were a slow-dawning fear and horror. “Oh, Ronald!” she whispered “what do you mean?” “Mean?” cried Barrymaine, “1 mean that I did it—l did it. Yes. I k-killed Jasper Gaunt, but it was no m-murder, Clo —a—a fight, an accident—yes, I s-swear to God I never meant to do it.” “You!” she whispered, “you?” “Yes, I—l did it, but I swear 1 never m-meant to—oh, Cieone—” and he reached down to her with hands outstretched appealingly. But Cieone shrank down and down away from him, until she was crouching on the floor, yet staring up at him with wide and awful eyes. “You!” she whispered. “Don't!” he cried. “Ah, don’t look at me like that and oh, my God! W-won’t you 1-let me t-touch you, Clo?” “I—l’d rather you—wouldn’t!” and Barnabas saw that she was shivering violently. (To Be Continued)

TARZAN AND THE CITY OF GOLD

“Are you speaking seriously?” objected Tarzan. “I thought there COULD be no woman in Cathne more beautiful than the Queen.” “There would not be if Nemone knew of her,” replied Gemnon. ‘ but fortunately she does not know; she has never seen this girl. .

“You are much interested,” remarked the apeman, smiling.' “I am in love with her,” explained Gemnon, simply. "Why has Nemone never seen her?” asked Tarzan. "She is surrounded by very loyal friends,” replied Gemnon. “She is Doria, the daughter of Thudos.

“Thudos is a powerful noble, head of the faction which wishes to place Nemone’s imprisoned brother, Alextar, on the throne. Nemone knows his power and dares not kill him. Because the Queen and Thudos are unfriendly, neither he nor his family are often at court.

—By Edgar Rice Burroughs

"Thus it has been easier to prevent the knowledge of Doria’s loveliness coming to the Queen's jealous ears.” As the two men left the palace they came unexpectedly upon Xerstle, already putting into action his crafty plan to destroy Tarzan. But he was not effusive.
