The Place For Boys
Some years ago the Doutrich Store
for men, 304 Market street, opened a
boys department on their main floor,
modern in all respects and as up-to-
date as the mems department, and
this new department became so popu-
lar and grew so rapidly that it soon
became necessary to arrange for
larger quarters and an S0-foot bal
cony was built to accommodate the
boys. 1t was found that this new ar
rangement not only gave the needed
space, but was more satisfactory and
convenient, for the mothers could rest
there comfortably and select the boys
clothes at their leisure. This season
Doutrichs are offering so many attrac-
tive styles in Easter suits for boys at
$500. $3.50, $500 and $1,000, that
the balcony for boys is the popular
rendezvous for boys who want good
looking clothes.

The Son of 7 arzan
By EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS
yFnnAM ueyc

One day. as the men were gathered
at a little distance, inspecting the body
of panther that had fallen to the gun
of one of them who had been hunting
inland, PaulvitCh lay sleeping beneath
his tree. He was awakened by the
touch of a hand upon his shoulder.
With start he sat up TO see huge
anthropoid ape squatting at his side,
inspecting him intently.
The Russian was thoroughly fright
ened. He glanced toward the sailors
they were a couple of hundred yards
away.
Again the ape plucked at his shout
ders, jabbering plaintively. Paulvitch
saw no menace in the inquiring gaze
or in the attitude of the beast. He got
slowly to his feet. The ape rose at his
side.
Half doubled, the man shuffled eau
tiously away toward the sailors. The
ape moved with him, taking one of his
arms. They had come almost to the
little knot of men before they were
seen, and by this time Paulvitch had
become assured that the beast meant
him no harm. The animal evidently
was accustomed to the association of
human beings.
1t occurred to the Russian that the
ape represented considerable and GER
tain money value, and before they
reached the sailors he had decided that
ne should be the one to profit by it.
When the men looked up and saw
the oddly paired couple shuffling to-
ward them they were filled with amaze
ment and started on run toward the
two. The ape showed no sign of fear.
Instead, he grasped each sailor by the
shoulder and peered long and earnestly
into his face. Having inspected them
all, he returned to Paulvitch's side, dis
appointment written strongly upon his
countenance and in his carriage.
The men were delighted with him.
They gathered about, asking Paulvitch
many questions and examining his com
panion. The Russian told them that

practical on winter coats and they
have been added without marring this
design.
Buttons are used for fastening the
coat; three large ones, covered with
cloth like the coat, are placed at the
front, one above and two below the
girdle. Three smaller ones manage the
collar and the front of the body. The

he offer, but kept harping continually
upon the same theme: 1.-The ape is
mine. The ape is mine"
firing of Paulvitch, one of the men
essayed a pleasantly. Circling about
behind the ape. he prodded the anthro-
poid in the back with pin.
Like flash the beast wheeled upon
it's tormentor, and in the brief instant
of turning the placid. friendly animal
was metamorphosed to a frenzied de-
mon of rage.
The broad grin that had sat upon the
sailors face as he perpetrated his little
joke froze to an expression OF terror.
He attempted to dodge the long arms
that reached for him, but, failing, drew
q long knife that hung at his belt.
The ape tore the weapon from the
mans grasp with a single wrench and
flung it to one side; then his yellow
fangs were buried in the sailors Shout
der.
With sticks and knives the mans
companions fell upon the beast, while
Paulvitch danced around the cursing,
snarling pack, mumbling and scream
ing pleas and threats. He saw his vi
sions of wealth rapidly dissipating be-
fore the weapons of the sailors.
The ape, however, proved no easy
victim to the superior numbers that
seemed fatpd to overwhelm him. RiS-
ing from the sailor who had preCipi-
tated the battle. he shook his giant
shoulders, freeing himself from two of
the men that We're clinging to his back
and with mighty blows of his open
palms felled one after another of his
attackers, leaping hither and thither
with the agility of a small monkey.
The fight had been witnessed by the
captain and mate, who were just land
ing from the Marjorie w, and Paul
witch saw these two now running for
ward with drawn revolvers, while the
two sailors who had brought them
ashore trailed at their heels. The ape
stood looking about him at the havoc
he had wrought but whether he was
awaiting a renewal of the attack or
was deliherating which of his foes he
