crept Chulk and Taglat, grotesque and

The matter OF the pouch Of Jewels

position that marked him even among
his frowning fellows where such char.
acteristics are the rule rather than
the exception; and, though Tarzan did
not guess 1t, he hated the ape-man
with ferocity that he was able to
hide only because the dominant spirit
OF the nobler creature had inspired
within him a species OF dread which
was as powerful as 1t was lneXplic-
able to the anthropoid.

the village Of Achmet Eek. AS they
set off, the remainder OF the tribe
vouchsafed them but a parting stare,
and then resumed the serious business

Tarzan found difficulty in keeping

purpose Of their adventure, for the

Another circumstance which decided
him to postpone pursuit of the Arabs

Billy Belgium turned to hurl his golf

with those orders landed an agency

He went to see the tailor, who agreed
to take any orders which Benton Sc

Hold hard, friend" said Benton. ."I

That's a good place to come from"
laughed Benton. Nov, I'm going down

"Oh, everybody"
Fine"
"There will be fifteen hundred people
there, perhaps more"
"Good--well, then, I will get two thou

"You won't get the printer to get

"That's my lookout" Benton cheer

Benton said.
The old printer showed the paper back

pushed the paper back ito him.

gave him a cigar and said. you want
