out the little cabin to her.
She took him by the hand to lead
him to it. that she might tell her father
that this man had saved her from
worse than death: that he had watched
over her as carefully as mother.
But again the timidity of the wild
thing in the face of human habitation
swept over Tarzan Of the apes. He
drew back. shaking his head.
The girl came close to him, looking
up with pleading eyes. Somehow she
could not bear the thought Of his going
back into the jungle alone.
Still he shook his head. and finally
he drew her to him very gently and
stopped to kiss her. but first he looked
into her eyes and waited to learn II

Presently she gave up the futile
effort and lay quietly, looking through
half closed lids at the face of the man
who strobe easily through the tangled

The face above her was one Of ex-

1t was perfect type Of the strongly
masculine, unmarried by dissipation or
degrading passions. One thing the girl
had noticed particularly when she had
seen Tarzan rushing upon Terkoz-the

but now as she scanned his features
she noticed that it was gone and only
a thin white line marked the spot
where it had been.
AS she lay more quietly in his arms
Tarzan slightly relaxed his grip upon
her.

and smiled The girl had to close her

a vivid imagination she had but to
raise her lids and look upon that face
so close to hers to dissipate the last
remnant of apprehension.
On and on they went through what
seemed a solid mass Of verdure, yet
ever there appeared to open before this
forest god a passage as by magic
which closed behind them as they
passed. ---.~--a----..-.---
AS Tarzan moved steadily onward
his mind was occupied with many
strange and new thoughts. Here was
a problem the like Of which he had
never encountered, and he felt rather
than reasoned that he must meet it as
a man and not as an ape. 1t was the
order of the jungle for the male to
take his mate by force. But could
TarZan be guided by the laws of the
beasts? Was not Tarzan a man? But
how did men do? He was puzzled.
He did not know.
He wished that he might ask the
girl, and then it came to him that she
had already answered him In the futile
struggle she had made to escape and
to repulse him.

caught her eyes upon him his face
lighted with that frank and radiant
smile that had won her confidence the
day before.
AS he approached her Jane Porter's
heart beat faster and her eyes bright

the approach of any man.
He had again been gathering fruit
which he laid at the entrance Of her
bower. Once more they sat down to-

Jane Porter commenced to wonder
what his plans were. Would he take
her back to the beach, or would he
keep her here? Suddenly she realized
