free. No one would tie him with

It was that which galled the ape -man.
He did not fear to die, no -it was the

"Nevertheless," he ineisted, "you are
a very brave girl. But how did you
know that I was a prisoner back
there?"

"So when it was dark I came alone,

For a few moments they walked on
In silence.
"We should be near the horses," she
said. • "It is strange that 1 do not see
thein here."
Then a Moment later she stopped,
with a littte cry of consternation.
'They are gone!" she exclaimed. "It
Is here that I tethered them."
Tamen) stooped to examine the
ground. He found that a large shrub
had been torn np by the roots. Tben
he round something else. There was
a wry smile on his face as he rose and
turned toward the girl.
"Iel mirea has been here. nem the
sigus, though, I rather think that his
prey escaped him. With a little start
they would be safe enough from him
in the open."
There was nothing 'to do but arm -
Untie on foot. The way led them across
a low spur of the mountains, but the
girl knew the trail as welt as she did
her mother's face. They walked in
easy, swinging strides, Tarzan keeping
a band's breadth behind the girl's
shoulders that she might set the pace
and thus be less fatigued. As they
wtilked they talked, occasionally stop-
ping to listen for sounds of pursuit,.
It was a beautiful moonlit night.
The air was crisp and invigorating.
Behind them lay the interminable vista
or the desert, dotted here and there
with an occasional oasis. The date
palms of the little fertile Spot they had
just left and the circle of goatskin
tents stood out in sharp relief against
the yellow sand -a phantom pahdise
epee a pbantom sea. Before them rose
the grim and silent mountains. Tar-
zan's blood leaped in his viens. This
was life! He looked down Upon the
girl beside him -a daughter of the des-
ert walking across the face of a dead
world with it son of the jungle. He
smiled at the thought. He wished
that he had had a sister and that she
had been like this girl. What a bully
chum she would have been!
They had entered the tnountains
now and were progressing more slow-
ly, for the trail was :deeper and very
rocky.
For a few minutes they bad been si•
lent. The girt was wondering If they
would reach leer father's dotter before
the pursuit bad otertaken them. Tar-
zan was wishing that they might walk
On Um forever. If the girl were only
a man they might. 11e longed for a
friend who loved the same wild life
that he loved. Lie had learned to
crave companionship, but it was his
misfortune that most of the nien he
knew preferred immaculate linen end
their clubs to tiakedness and the jun-
gle. It was, of course, diilicult to un-
derstand, yet it was very evident that
they did. •
The two had just turned a projecting
rock around which the trail ran when
they were brought to h sudden step.
There before them, directly in tbe mid-
dle of the path, stood Mums, el adrest,
the black lion. ilis green -eyes looked
Very *idled, and he bared his teeth
and lashed his bay black sides with
his angr3r tail. Then he roared -the
fearsome, terror inspiring roar of the
hungry lion Which is also angry.
"Your knife," said Tarzan to the
girl, extending his hand. She sleiped
the hilt of the Weepon into his wait,

diminishing echoes of the distance the
man dropped his eyes until they rested
upon the girl.
Instantly his face was lighted by the

of his sanity, and the girl breathed
