"Brokers in Adventure" by George Agnew Chamberlain

This serial story, illustrated by Lee Conrey, presents a romance between Fifth Avenue finance and African big-game hunting. Charles Harlow, a successful maritime lawyer earning fifty thousand yearly, encounters his old college friend Flange Rordon, a hard-muscled adventurer recently returned from eight years exploring the world. Rordon criticizes Harlow's sedentary, money-driven existence and challenges him to abandon his dull routine. The encounter sets up tension for an adventure involving elephant hunting in Africa alongside a beautiful, spoiled society woman who insists on joining an expedition. Through witty dialogue and physical contrast—Rordon's muscular vitality versus Harlow's softened prosperity—Chamberlain explores themes of masculine purpose and escape from urban constraint.
