CHAPTER X.—Continued.

"Well, no," Harris said; "I'm afrali
we can't."
_,"Ajimrked check Is ns good ns bills,1
the bankeFTrgued, "and much easlei
to carry, not to speak of being safer,1
he added, as an afterthought. "Traveling wltb that amount of money on
you Is a sort of defiance of natural law,
especially with the country 'full of
strangers, as It Is at present." The
banker looked from the powerful frnnv
of the farmer to the equally powerful
frame of the farmer's son, and his eye
fell on the gun which the latter carriec
under his arm. "But I guess," he continued with a laugh, "there Isn't much
danger on that score."
•Nothln' t' speak of," said Harris.
"And while I don't want t' break yoni
bank, I dp want t' get that money, an<
t' get It In bills, or part of It In gold
an' silver would do. The fact Is,
don't mind tellln' you, I've a deal on,
an' I've undertaken t' put up this money In cash—tonight."
A young man emerged from somewhere .and locked the front Jpor of the
bank.
"It's closing time now," said the
teller, addressing the manager. "W
have enough cash on band to pay this
gentleman, and we can wire for man
blllsr which" wlir renqlrus~in tlmtr f or
tomorrow's business,"
'Pay It, then," said the manager,
"Mr. Harris has a right to his money
In that form (lf he wants It. "But," he
added, turning to Harris, "I'd advise
you to keep both eyes on It until your
transaction Is completed." y
The counting of the money was a
bigger task than either Harris or Allan
had thought, but at last It was completedi and they were ready for the
road. The banker looked after their
buggy as It faded out of sight up the
river road.
"Hang me If I like that I" he said to
himself.
The long drive up the valley In the
warm August afternoon was an experience for the soul of painter or poet,
JUvcn John and Allan Harris, schooled
an they were In the religion of material things, felt' something wlthfn
them responding to the air, and the
sunlight, and tho dark green banks of
trees, and tho sound of rushing water,
and tho purple-blue mountains heaving
and receding before them.
Darkness settled about them. One
or two stars cnmo out. Tho poplars
:ook on the color of the spruce; the
river fretted moro noisily In Its rocky"
channel. A thin ribbon of cloud lay
across the mountains, and a breeze of
wonderful mellowness cumo down
:hrough the PHRSUS.
At length, just OH they were thinking
of pitching camp for the night, Allan
espied a deserted cubln In n cluster of
trues by the Hide of the roud. They
:urned Into tbo wood and unhitched the
horflcB.
A match revealed n lantern banging
on tho wall, und a few cooking utimslltj,
Biifo from nil muriiudunj under the. unwritten luw of tbo nuw land.
Tho two mun drat madu their homcn

The Honor of 'Thieves.
Gnrdlner and Hllcs rode only a shor
distance out of town, then tui-net
their horses Into the deep bush, am
waited.
At last the Harris' team and bne
rattled by. When It had secured
good lead the two horsemen emerg
fronr their covering nnd took a cros
road; to Gardiner's ranch.
"We better eat," said Gardiner nn<
busied himself with starting a lire
"Of course, the cook's out - Pishing,
guess," he continued, as he notlcej
that Travers' fishing rod was gom
from the wall'. "Perhaps It's Just a;
.well. He might he asking questions.'
Biles ate his meal ID baste am
silence. He was taciturn, moody, am
excitable, and made no response
Gardiner's attempts to open conversation upon trivial subjects.
"Dpon my soul," said Gardiner ni
last, ^'you don't seem nny__more thai
enthusiastic. One would think yoi
were going to a funeral. Instead of i
—n division of profits."
"Perhaps I am," said Riles sourly.
"We'll know better when we ge
back."
"Well, If you feel that way about It,
you better stay at home," said Gnrdlner, with pointed candldncss. "If ten
thousand dollars Is no good to you
perhaps I can use your share In m;
own business."
'.
"That wouldn't let me out," protested Riles. "You've got me mixed up
In It now, and If things BO wrong I'm
In for It, but If things go right you're
wlllln' t' take all the money."
"Things won't go wrong,"-Gardiner
assured him. "They can't. Every
thing-Is planned to a -fraction, but _lf
"If Ten Thounand Dollara la No Good
to You, Perhaps I.Can Uae-Your
Share In the Buslne»»."
wo sco there's going to ho n hitchwhy, the owner of Iho mlne'll full to
turn up, and we'll nil come buck to
town, und no one u bit the wiser."
Riles wns eager to know tho details
of which ho bad been kept In complete Ignorance, but Oardlner would
disclose nothing until they were on
tho road. "Jim inuy como In any
minute," ho explained, "and Jim
might hear enough to make him curious. And It'n Jimt a llttlu too uoon
to vxclto hla curiosity.

Tin' smile did not leave Trnvers
lips us lie wound up his reel and stoli
swiftly »lons n cultle-tnick u p ' from
the river, but n sudden light gleni
In bis eyes and hla muscles hardened
with excited tension. He knew thi
shanty to which Gardiner referred, n
they hud mice been there together,
nnd be resolved that If there were going to he nny "doings" In that locality tonight he would furnish n shore o!
the excitement. Unfortunately, the
ford was on n cross-road little used
nnd It was two miles back to the
ranch. By the time Trnvers reached
the rnneh buildings, caught nnd saddled his horse, made a fruitless search
for his revolver, substituted a rifle
which lay at hand, and at length
found himself upon the trail, darkness
was setting In, and Gardiner and Kllea
had many miles' start of him.
When the two plotters stopped to let
their horses drink at the ford Gardiner
suddenly broke off from their conversation to make a few remarks ahou
Travers and Harris. lilies had listened Indifferently until his. eye caughi
sight of Travers. half concealed
among the cotton-woods that fringed
the stream. He, clutched Gardiner's
arm.
"S-s-sh," he cautioned. "Jim's Jus'
behind th^bank. I'ni sure I saw him,
an* he beard you, too."
"Good," said Gardiner, quite undisturbed. "Now we can go on." They
reined up their horses nrfd plunged lnt<
the swiftly-running water. "You see,
said Gardiner, as the horses took thi
opposite bank with great strides, their
wet hoofs slipping on the round boulders that fringed the stream—"You
see.J knew Jim was there all the time.
Those remarks were Intended for his
benefit.
"It's all quite simple. Jim will hurry
back to the ranch, saddle his horse,
and follow us. By the way, I didn't
tell him I borrowed his revolver. That
may delay him some. But he should
arrive at the shack In time to be takIng-o-few— stealthy observations-jusl
about the moment the Harrises are
hunting for their money bag. I hope
Allan doesn't use that shotgun on him.
A shotKun makes_an awful hole,In a
man. Biles."
Riles experienced an uncanny feelIng up his spine.
"Well," continued Gardiner, "I promised to lay the whole plan before you,
when we were safe on the road with
no possibility- of any strange ears
cocked for what a mnn might happen
to say. It's all easy sailing now. The
big thing was to get them on the rond
with the coin. That's what I needed
you for. Riles. And you didn't do,too
bad. I had to prod you along a bit. but
you'll thank me for It when It's all
over.
"Now this Is how It will work out,
to a T. The two Harrises will get up
to the shanty about dark. They'll pitch
camp there nftd begin to wonder when
we'll bi along. Well, we won't ba
along until It's good and dark, even If
we have to kill tlmo on the road. If
Trnvers catches up on us we'll Just let
him nmlio one of the party, which will
bo sort of embarrassing for Jim. But
he won't catch up. Well, when It's
good and dnrk—there'll be no moon till
after midnight—nnd they're both
sleepy with their long drive In tho high
altitude, we will arrive near by. You
will go up to tliu door and take a look
on the nulet. I will go up to tlio window nnd do the sumo. There's no

"Doris I" culled a shrill voice from
^the recess of the house. "What nn
ypu doing out there on the piazza? Ii
Is getting dark and growing rathei
chilly; yon hod better be coming in
."We are only talking," came hac]
the quiet answer, "and it Is not a b:
cold."
"Very well," the shrill voice wen
on, "but you must come In very shon
ly."
"All right, Aunt Mlllnda," and Dorl
sighed, as she looked at the manl.
form dimly outlined In the twlllgh
before her. "We have a good supej
visor, Jim," she spoke slowly.
"We have, at that," he said, teas
Ingly; "but I do not blame her, whei
she Is your guardian-"
*
"Doris! D-o-r-l-s!" Came the caj
again.
"Yes, Aunt Mlllnda, we are coming.1
And with a final, wistful glance at th<
harvest moon they entered the house.
Aunt Mlllnda sat beside the kltchei
table knitting, and did not seem ti
notice their approach.
"Would you like some music, Jim?'
Doris asked.
Jim opened his mouth to agre«
heartily with this proposal, but shu
It with a snap, for Aunt Mlllnda wa:
ready before him.
"No, Doris, It Is too chilly In thi
parlor this fall evening, and anyway,
the-lamp needs fixing."Doris sighed, and Jim unconsciously joined In. It was hard being In
love with a girl for four years, who
had pn aunt like Aunt Mlllnda.
The old-fashioned clock ticked away
heartlessly, but somehow the conversational powers- of the trio were
limited.
—Flnally-Aunt-Mlllnda-looked-at-the
clock suggestively and peered over

caller.
"It seems to me-the-men-folks make
rather late calls on the girls nowadays.
When I was a girl the boys always
went home sharp at nine o'clock I"
"Perhaps I had better be going." Jim
said, rising to bis feet apologetically
"Please don't," Doris begged, "you
have Just barely got here."
Then the rapid clicking of tbe steel
needles grew slower nnd finally
stopped entirely. Aunt Mllluda's head
fell back against the chair and she
was asleep!
"Shall we see If that harvest moon
Is still there?" a deep voice asked Joyfully.
"Of course 1" a softer voice replied,
and two dim forms crept stealthily
from the house.
'Has.your aunt ever been In.love?"
Ilm qoked abruptly, as they wandered
along the river bunli.
"Yes, once, but she lost faith In her
lover and Is now a sworn man hater,'
sho answered. "His name was Paul
nnd they were going to be married,
but a little trouble arose Just before
the wedding and the wedding was canculled. But Paul wrote to nor and
asked to be allowed to come to her
homo to explain. Aunt Mlllnda was
very proud, but ducldud to let him
come. She wrote to him, telling him
BO, but ho never tjnmo and died very
suddenly a short tlmo afterward."
"That was unfortunate," Jim spoke
seriously, "nnd I can understand now
why tfho Is so opposed, to me."
Thoy walked along thoughtfully and
ontcntcdly, forgetting how rapidly
:he time wns slipping by. Aunt Mlllndu opened her eyes In

, INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC
—Earning and Ualag Money.
YOUNO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
—Problems of Poverty and Wealth.
I. Wealth In tha Hand, of the Few
(Isa. 5:8).
1. "Join bouse to house" (v. 8).
2. "Lay field to field" (v. 8).
The avaricious greed of these men
caused them to enlarge their estates
at the expense of their neighbors. In
agricultural districts It took the form
of land-grabbing and the eviction of
the small proprietor, and In the commercial centers the crowding Oat of
the' small concerns by the large corporations. God bates tbe spirit of
avarice.
_
11. Method* Employed In the A<>
quliltion of Wealth (Amos 8:4-6).
1. "Swallowed up fhe needy" (v. 4).
"Swallowed up" literally' means to
pant after, like a beast after Its prey
with eagerness to devour. Many today get rich by swallowing up the
needy.
2. "To make the poor of the land
to fall" (v. 4). ~They^were~ graspRig"
after the houses and lands of the poor,
and In order to accomplish this they
Impoverished them in every way possible siT as to root them oat of the
land. This they doubtless did by
withholding from them their lawful
wages, an example of which we find
In James 5:4, and placing exorbitant
taxes upon them and cheating them
In the courts.
3. Begrudged tbe loss of holy days
(v. 5). They were restlessly Impatient
because of the restrictions of those
days. Though outwardly conforming
to the Sabbath they were seeking all
the while to commercialize It Many
today go to church for the sake of
respectability while Impatiently waitIng for the day to pass In order to
to pursue 'their business.
4. Dishonesty In business dealings
(v. .'>). (1) They made the ephah
sn.iill. Their measures were less than
the price paid for. (2) They made
tho shekel great. The shekel being
the coin used to pay bills, the merchants put Into circulation overweight
shekels thus getting a higher price
for their grain. The purchaser waa
thus cut on both sides. (3) Falsified
(heir balances. Even the. scales by
which tho gold and silver were
trelghcil had been tampered with, making* them fiullty of cheating In three
ways.
5. They bought the poor for silver
'. 0). Tho poor were reduced to
auch poverty by the above means ot
cheating that tbey-wero obliged to sell
mnelvea Into slavery, even for a
pair of shoes.
0 They sold tha refuge of. the wheat
'. 0). In time of famine they even
gold to the people 'hat part' of tbe
vrhi-nt which waa Intended for tho
•rattle.
III. Qod'a Judgment Upon Them
Amos 8:7; cf. Inn. rt:0. 10).
God aaya "I will never forget." Not
»ni' act of greed and oppression will
ucapi) (lod'H notice.
1. Many houaea abatl bo deaolate.
2. Thu land unproductive (v. 10).

SOUTH JERSEY STAR, HAMMONTON, N. J.
Village
of Mars
By Irving Bacheller
GORDON KINO.
Synopsis.—In the vlllaee of BlngTllle thirteen-year-old Robert Emroett Moran. crippled son of a poor
widow, la known as tho Shepherd
of the Birds. His world Is his
_mothor_and_frlends, hit nttlejrpom,
the (lower garden ot Judge CrooBerT
and every flying thing he seea from
his window. The painting ot' pictures Is his enjoyment, and little
Pauline Baker, small daughter of
a neighbor, the object of his boyish
affection. To him, J. Pattersoij
Bins;, the first citizen of Blngvllle,
Is the Ideal of a really great man.
The village becomes money mad,
reflecting the great world In Its
state of unrest. The Blng family
Is a leader In the change, a To them
the village has become "provincial" The butcher and baker and
candlestick-maker all raise their
prices. Even Hiram Blenklnsop,
the town drunkard, works hard for
a montn. The Old Spirit of Blngvllle Is summarily flred. The first
citizen builds an addition to his
mansion and goes In for entertaining. Pauline Baker, victim of her
surroundings, elopes with a stranger.
CHAPTER
TWO—Continued.
"It's a fact. Susan told me. Mr
Baker doesn't know the truth yet and
ehe doesn't dare to tell him. She's
scared stiff. Pauline went over to
Hazelmead last week to visit Emma
Stacy agalnst;hls wishes. She-merthe
young man nt a dance. Susan got a
letter from Pauline last night making
a clean breast of the matter. They
are married and stopping at a hotel in
New York."
"My lord I I should think she would
be scared stiff," said Mrs. Blng.
"I think there Is a good reason for
the stiffness of Susan," said Mrs. Singleton, the wife of the Congregational
minister. "We all know that Mr. Baker objected to these modern dances
and the way thnt Puullne dressed. He
used to say that It was walking on the
edge of a precipice."
There was a breath of silence In
which one could hear only a faint rustle like the stir of some Invisible
spirit.
Mrs, Blng sighed. "He may be all
' fight," she said In a low, calm voice.
"But the Indications are not favoroble," Mrs. Singleton remarked.
The gossip ceased! abruptly, for the
girls were coming from the palm
/room.
The ncVt morning Mrs. Blng went
to see Susan Baker to offer sympathy
• and a helping hand. Mamie Blng wns,
after all, a good-hearted womnn. By
this time, Mr. Baker had been told.
lie had kicked a hole In the long looking-glass In Pauline's bedroom and
flung a pot of rouge through the -window and scattered talcum powder nil
over the place nnd torn a new silk
Bown Into rags nnd burned It In the
kitchen stove and left the house slnm'Rilnf the door behind him. Hiisnn had
gone to lied and he hud probably gone
to the club or somewhere. Porhnpu
lie. would commit aulclde. ^Of nil this,
It In enough to miy that for noine hours
there wnn.nbuiidant oiriipntlon for the
tender nyiupnthles of Mrs. J. Patterson
Ulug. Before she left, Mr. linker hud
returned for luncheon nnd Hccmed
to he* quite mini nnd Helf-poMHt'HNed
when he greeted her In the Imll below

On entering her home, iiliotU ono

was .within one sip of a decision to let
go.
Mrs. Blng was admirably cool. In
her manner there was little to Indicate that she had seen the unusual
and highly festive accessories. She
sat down beside them and said: "My
dear, I was very lonely nnd thought I
Tvould-come-nnd look-yomip.. Is your
luncheon finished?"
"Yej," said Phyllis.
"Then let us go nnd get Into the
car. We'll drop Mr. King at his home."
When at last they were seated In
the limousine, the angry lady lifted
the brakes In a way of speaking.
"I am astonished that yon would go
to luncheon with this young man who
has Insulted you," she said.
Phyllis began to cry.
Turning to young Gordon King, the
Indignant Indy added: "I 'think you
are a disreputable bov. You must
never come to my house again—
never I"
He made no answer and left the car
without n word at the door of the
King residence.
TRcre~wcre ~mlIe»~~an<T~ miles of
weeping on the way home.' Phyllis
hnd recovered her composure but began again when her mother remarked,
"I wonder where you learned to drink
champagne and cognac and smoke
cigarettes," as if her own. home had
not been a perfect academy of dissipation. The girl sat In a corner, her
~eyes~~covere(I~wlth her^nandkerchlef
nnd the only words she uttered on the
way home were these: "Don't tell
father I"
While this was happening, Mr. Baker confided his troubles to Judge
Crooker In the latter'a ofHce. The
Judge heard htm through and then
delivered nnother notable opinion, to
wit: "There are many subjects on
which the judgment of the average
man is of little value, but In the matter of bringing np a daughter It Is apt
to be sound. Also there are many
subjects on which the Judgment of the
average womnn may be trusted, but
Oopyrlght, A. O. IteClnrff and OoiDp»oy
low, make the most of It The chancea
are against that, but let na hope for
the best Above all, I want yon to be
gentle with Pauline. You are mor»
to blame than she Is."
"I don't see how I can spare thn
time, but I'll have to," said Baker.
"Time I Fiddlesticks I" the Judge eiclalmed. "What a darn fool money
makes of a man I You^ have lost your;
sense of proportion, your appreciation
of values. Bill Prltchard used to talk
that way to me. He' has been lying
twenty years In his grave. He tiadn't
a minute to spare until one day he fell
dead—then leisure and lots of leisure.
It would seem—and the business baa
doubled since he quit worrying about
Jt My friend, you can not take a cent
Into Paradise, bnt the soul of Pauline
Is a different kind of property. It
might be a help to yon there. Olve
plenty of time to this Job, and good
luck to you.**
The spirit of the old, dead days
spoke In the vote) of the judge—spoke,
with a kindly dignity. It had ever
been the voice of Justice, tempered
with" Mercy—toe most feared~and~re-:
spected voice In the upper counties.
His grave, smooth-shaven face, his
kindly gray eyes, bis noble brow with
Its crown of white hair were fitting
accessories of the throne of Justice
and y Mercy.
"I'll go this afternoon. Thank you.
Judge!" said,__Baker. as he left -the
office.

Pauline had announced In her letter
that her husband's name was Herbert
Mlddleton. Mr. Baker sent a telegram
to Pauline to apprise her of his arrival
In the morning. It was a fatherly
message of love and good-will. At the
hotel In New York, Mr. Baker learned
that Mr. and Mrs. Mlddleton had
checked out the day before.
Nobody could tell bin? where they
had gone.
One of the men at
the porter's desk told of putting
them In a toitcnb with their grips
and aateamer trunk eoon after luncheon. He didn't know where they went
Mr. Baker's telegram was there unopened. He called at every hotel desk
In the city, bnt he could get no trace
of them. He telephoned to Mrs. Baker.
She had heard nothing from Pauline.
In despair, he went to the police der
partment and told his story to the
chief. /
"It looks as If there was something
crooked about It," said tho chief.
"There are many cases like this. Just
read that."
The officer picked np a newspaper
clipping, which lay on his desk, nnd
passed It to Mr. Baker. It was from
tho New York Evening Post. Tlie
banker read aloud this startling Information :
" The New York police report that
approximately S.flOO girls have run

blend of mirth and sadness, smiles and tears;
quaint knight-errant of the pioneers;
homely hero, born of stnr and eod;
peasant prince, u masterpiece of God.
O THOSE \vlio know their Lincoln
nnd vvory good American should
read nnd reri'nd this Bible of Americanism—the name of New Salem,
111., calls up a chapter In his life
that no man can read without
smiles nncl tears—and wonder.
For New Salem was Abraham
Lincoln's town during. the six
jj_y£nrs which marked the first stage
Tfpf his development from "a'quaint
^night-errant of the pioneers" to
"n masterpiece of God."
He arrived at.New Salem In 1881 "a stranger,
friendless, uneducated, penniless boy, working on
a flhthoiit for $JO a month," us ho himself put It.
In 18II7 hi' left New Salem to tuke up his law practice In SprlnKlleld.
In those momentous six years ho had transformed hluiHt.'lf from an Ignorant and "uncouth
youth of twenty-two to n man of acknowledged
prnmlsn and ability, with mor« than a local popularity and tin ambition that spurred hhi) to travel
far.
Those ylx years wero crowded years. It wan at
Now Salem that Lincoln earned II!N nlrlinnmu of
"Honest Abe"—nnd Incidentally fastened upon
lilinuelf a Illusion of debt which he WIIH never able
fully to wipe out until bin fortieth year, after his
election to conKress In 1N-H).
It \UIH ut New Snloiii that he wan clerk and
"torfUwpor; Hint ho'studied Kniimunr anil Hindislone; t b n t he was it captain In the Illnek Hawk
war,
t h a t lie WIIH deputy Htirvi'yor, that he was

for die IcKlnlaluru. Anil ll was at ,Ne\» Hnltim that

"On Christmas day In 1821)," the historian goes
on lo say, "a post olllco was established In New
Sillcm ami Samuel II1I1 was made postmaster,
lieorgo Wurhurtoli.thcn built a Store building and
put lu a stock of goods, hut soon sold out to the
ChrlHinan Druthers, one of whom, Isnne P., became postmaster" on November- !M. 1HSI1. William
Clary, the brother of John, who gave bis name to
the gn>ve where he settled In 1HUI, erected and
' became proprietor of Clary's grocery. Then came
Doctor Allen, who erected a dwelling across the
street Bouth from tho HHI & McNelll store.
"In addition to Ida professional duties Doctor
Allen conducted a Humbly school. He was an
ardent temperance man and formed the llrst'temperance society In Ihe community. Tht| place of

"Then, during Ihe nmnmcr of 1H1IO, Henry Onstott moved from Hllgar Orove, erected a dwelling

Dejah Thorls only smiled the more
and with the roguish dimples playing
nt the corners of her mouth she made
answer:
"From the beginning of time upon
Barsoom It has been the prerogative'
of woman to change her mind as she
listed and to dissemble In matters con^Mrnlng^herhenrtr-That yon will for-glve. Than Kosls, as has your son.
Two days ago I was not sure of his
love for me, tut now I am, nnd I
have come to beg of you to forget
my rash ^vords nnd to .accept the assurance of the princess of Helium
that when the time comes she will
wed Sab Than, prince of, Zodangn."
''I am glnd that you nave so decided," replied Thnn Kosls. "It Is far
from my desire to push war further
against the people of Helium, and,
your promise shall be recorded and
a proclamntlon to my people issued
forthwith. We shnll see how the people of Helium tnke to peace. I shall
at least offer It to them."
—• Dejah Thorls,- nfter a few words,
turned .nnd left the npnrtment. Still
followed by her guards.
Thus was the edifice of my brief
dream of happiness dashed, broken,
to the ground of reality. The woman
for whom I had offered my life, and
from whose, lips I bad so recently
heard a declaration of love for me,
"Ba7rnigEtiy~forgoffen my veryTiist^
ence untl smilingly given herself to
the son of her people's most hated
enemy.
Although I had heard It with my
own ears I could not believe It. I
imist search out her apartments nnd
force her to repent the cruel truth
to me alone before I would he convinced, and so I deserted my post
»nd hastened through the passage behind the tapestries toward the door
by which she had left the chamber.
Slipping quietly through this opening'
I discovered a maze of winding corridors, branching and turning In every
dlrcctlop.
Running rapidly down first one nnd
then another of them I soon became
hopelessly lost nnd was standing panting against a side wall when I heard
voices near me. Apparently they were
coming from the opposite side of tlie
partition against which I leaned, ana
presently I made out tho tone of DeJah Thorls. I could not hear tho words
but I knew that I could not possibly
be mistaken In the voice.
Walking boldly forward I pushed
Into the room only to find myself In
a small antechamber In which were
the four guards who had accompanied
her. Oiie of them Instantly arose and
accosted me, asking the nature of my
business.
"I am from Than Knsls," I replied,
"and wish to speak privately with
Dejah Thorls. princess of Helium/'
"No one comes from Than Kosls
without carrying an order or the password. You must give mo one or the
other before you may puss."
"The only order I require, my friend,
to enter where I will, hangs nt my
nlilc." I answered, lapping my longsword; "will you let me pass In peace
or no?"
"You
lire not hero by tht* order of
Than Kosls," cried the one who hitd
llrnt addressed me, "and not only shall
you not enter the iirmrtlncntn of the
prlnccns of Helium, but you nhall K«
back lo Than Kosls under guard lo explain t h i n unwarranted temerity.
Throw down your sword; you cannot
hope to overcome four of un," he added
w l l h a grim nnllle.
My reply was a quick thrust which
left me but three antagonists and I
can assure yon that they were worthy
of my inelnl. They hnd me hacked
ngalnnt Ihe wall In no time, lighting
for my life. Hlowly 1 worked my way
to a corner of (he room where 1 could
force them to come at mo only one nt
a time, nud (bun we fought upward of

In
It Is not—It cannot be—no, for he Is
dead."
~ "It Is, though, my princess, none other than John Carter," I said. "Do you
not recognize, even through paint and
strange metal, the heart of your chieftain?"
As' I came close to her she swayed
toward me with outstretched hands,
hut as I reached to take her In my
nrms-she drew-bnck-wlU»-a-shud,derand a little moan of misery.
"Too late, too late," she grieved.
"Oh, my chieftain that was, and whom
I thought dead, had you but returned
one little hour before—but now It Is
too late, too late."
"What do you mean, Dejah Thorls?"
I cpled. "That you would not have
promised yourself to the Zodangan
prince hnd you»known that I lived?"
"Think you, John Carter, that I
would give my heart to you yesterday
and today to another? I- thought that
It lay burled with your ashes In the
pits of Wnrhoon, and so todny I have
promised my body to nnother to save
my people from the curse of a, victorious Zodangan army. I am as good
as married, John Carter. No longer
may you call me your princess./ No
longer are you my chieftain."
"I know but" little l>f ^bur^cnstoms
here upon Barsoom, Dejah Thorls, but
I do know that I love' you, and If yon
meant the last words you spoke to-me
that day as the hordes of Wnrhoon
"were~charglng~down upon us, no other
man shnll ever claim you as his bride.
You meant them then, my princess,
and you mean them still I Say that It
Is true."
"I meant them, John Carter," she
whispered. "I cannot repeat them now,
for I have given myself to another. Ah,
If you had only known our ways, my
friend," she continued, half to herself,
"the promise would have been yours
long months ago, and you coujd have
claimed me before nil others."
Then aloud she snld: "Do yon remember the night when you offended
The? You called me your princess
without having asked my hand of me,
and then you boasted that you hnd
fought for mo. You did not know, and
I should not have-been offended; I see
that now. But there was no one to tell
you, what I could not, that upon Barsoom there are two kinds of women In
the cities of the red men. The one they
fight for that they may ask them In
marriage; the other kind they fight for
also, but never ask their hands. When
n mnn has won n Woman he may address her as his princess, or In any of
the several terms which signify possession. Yon had fought for me, but hnd
never asked me In marriage, nnd so
when you called me your princess, you
see," nbe faltered, "I was hurt, but
even then, John Carter, I did not repulse you, us I should have done, until
you made It doubly worse hy taunting
me with having won mo through combat."
"I ito not need nsk your forgiveness

They left the hall. nnd. nn darkness

CHAPTER XV.
Lost In tha Sky.
Without effort at concealment I
hastened to the vicinity of our a«nrterB, where I felt sure I should find
Knntos Kan. He was alone and
showed no surprise at my coming,
unylng he had expected me much
earlier, as my tour of duty must have
ended some time since.
I saw that be knew nothing of the
events of the day at'the palace, and
when I hnd enlightened him he wna all
excltcment.-The news-that Bejali-Thorls
hnd promised her hand to Sab Than
filled him with dismay.
"It cannot be," he exclaimed. "It Is
Impossible I Why, no man In all Helium but would prefer death to the sellIng of onr loved princess to the ruling
house of Zodanga. She must have lost
her mind to have assented to such an
atrocious bargain. What can be done,
John Carter? Yon are a resourceful
man. Can yon not think of some way
to save Helium from this disgrace?"
"If 1 can come within sword's reach
of Sub Than," I answered, "I cnn solve
the difficulty In so far as Helium Is
concerned, but for personal reasons I
would prefer that another struck the
blow that frees Dejah Thorls."
Kantos Knn eyed me narrowly before he spoke.
"You love her!" he said. "Does she
know It?"
"She knows It, Kantos Knn. and repulses me only because she Is promised to Sab Than."
'~
The splendid fellow sprang to his
feet— andr-grasplng-me-by—the-shoulder, ' raised his sword on high, exclaiming:
*
f
"And had the choice been left fo me
I could not have chosen a more fitting
mate for the first princess of Barsoom.
Heiiejs my hand upon your shoulder,
JohnCarter, and my word that Sab
Than shall go out at the point of my
sword for the sake of my love for
Helium, for Dejnh Thorls. and for yon.
This very night I shall try to reach his
quarters In the palo.ce.
"I only need to pass these guards
and I can do It. I know a secret entrance to the palace through the pinnacle of the highest tower. I fell upon
It by chance one day as I was passing
above the palace on patrol duty. If I
can reach tlie roof of the barracks and
get my machine 1 cnn be In Sab Thnn's
quarters in five minutes;' but how am
I to escape from this building, guarded as you say It Is?"
"Go to tho roof of this building,
Kantos Kan, and wait me there."
Without stppplng to explain my
plans I retraced my way to tho street
and hastened to the barracks. I did
not dare to enter the building, filled as
It was with members of the nlr-flcout
fquadron, who, In common with all
Zodnnga, were on tho lookout for mfe.
• Tho building wns nn enormous one,
rearing Its lofty hcnd fully a thousand
feet Into the nlr. It wns a long climb
up the face of the building, but there
wns no other way, and so 1 essayed
tho task. Tlie fnct thnt llnraoomlun
architecture IH extremely ornntu made
tho feat much simpler than 1 hnd anclpntcd, Hlnce 1 found ornamental
ledgcn and projections which fufrly
formed a' perfect ladder for me all the
way to the envea of tho building. Here
I met my llmt rcnl obstacle. The «IV«M

wall to which I clung, nnd (hough I
encircled the (treat building I could

til the ceremony had actually been,
performed.
As I wandered along the, corridor*,
t won na absolutely lost In the mazes
of winding passageways as I had been
before I discovered Dejatf Thorls'
apartments.
Presently I came upon a spiral runway lending to n lower floor, nrid this I
followed downward for several stories
until Ireached thertlq.orwny-of-a-lttrge
apartment In which were a number of
guardsmen. The walls of this room
were hung with transparent tapestries
behind which I secreted myself without being apprehended.
The conversation of the guardsmen
was general, and awakened no Interest
In me until an officer entered tlie room
nnd ordered four of the men to relieve
the detail who were guarding the
princess of Helium. Now, I knew, my
troubles would commence' In earnest
and Indeed they were upon me nil too
soon, for It seemed that the squad nnd
scarcely left the guardroom before one
of their number burst in again breathlessly, crying that they had found
_thelr_fpnr comrades butchered Jn the
antechamber.
In a moment the entire palace was
alive with people. Guardsmen, officers, courtiers, servants and slaves ran
belter skelter through' the corridors
and apartments carrying messages and
orders, and searching for signs of the
assassin.
This—was my opportunity- and- sllm_
as It nppenred I grasped It, for as n
number of soldiers came hurrying past
my hiding place I fell In behind them
and followed through the mnzes of the
pnlace until, In passing through a
great hall, I saw the blessed llRht of
day coming In through a series of
larger windows.
Here I left my guides, and, slipping
to tho nearest window, sought for an
avenue of escape. The windows opened
upon a great balcony which overlooked
one of the broad avenues of Zodnnsu.
The ground was about thirty feet below, and nt a like distance from the
building was a wall fully twenty feet
high, constructed of polished glass
nhout n foot in 'thickness. To n red
Mnrtlan escape by this path would
hnve nppenred Impossible, but to me,
with my earthly strength and agility,
it seemed already accomplished. My
only fear whs Ih being detected before
dnrkncss fell, for I could not make the
leap In broad daylight while the court
below nnd the nvonue beyond were
crowded with Zodangnns.
Accordingly I searched for n hiding
place and finally found one by accident, Inslda a huge hanging ornament
which hung from the celling of the
hall, and about ten feet from the floor.
Into the capacious bowl-like vnsc I
sprang with ease, nnd scarcely had I
settled down within It than I heard a
number of people enter the apartment.
The group stopped beneath my hiding
place nnd I could plainly overhear
their every word.
"It Is the work, of Hellumltcs," said
one of the men.
"Yes, O Jeddak, hut how had they
access to the palace? Wo shall soon
know, however, for hero' comes the
roynl psychologist."
Alnothor man now Joined tho group,
and, after making his formal greetings
to his ruler, snld:
"O mighty Jcddnk, It Is a strange
tale I rend In the (lend minds of your
faithful guardsmen. They wero felled
not by a number of fighting men, lint
by a single, opponent."
IT« paused to let the full weight of
this announcement Imprest! Ills hearers, and that bin statement was scarri*ly credited WUH evidenced by the Impatient exclamation of Incredulity which
escaped tho llpn of Than Kosls.
"Where In my erstwhile savior?"
spoke Wiother of the parly, and I recognized the voice of the cnunln .of
Than KoslB, whom I hnd rescued from
the vreen warriors. "Hy (tin motnl of
,my first ancestor/' he- went on. "but
thn doso^pllon tits him to perfection,
oapuclully as to bis lighting ability."
"Whei-d Is this man?" cried Than

The fellow, acting on Impulse of curiosity. stepped to my side and to his
undoing, for as he leaned to peer over
the enves I grasped him by his throat
nnd his pistol arm and threw him heavily to the_ roof. The, weapon dropped
from his grasp, and my fingers choked
off his attempted, cry for assistance. I
gngged and bound him and then hung
him over the edge of the roof as I myself had hung a few minutes before.
I hnevi it would be morning before he
would be discovered, nnd I needed all
the time that I could gain.
Donning my trappings and weapons
I hastened to the sheds, and soon had
out both my machine and Kantos

started my engine, and. skimming over
the edge of the roof I dove down Into

John Towne drove tliroqgh the vHlagc on his quickest route to the city
beyond. The ride wag longer than he
hnd anticipated. In bis wi»h to avoid
clone trains, and the spring time vista
of field and meadow, brought from him
no conscious admiration. Above all
things, was John practical, and ttrla
journey but a necessary factor In a
neceasary arrangement of hlg life's ft>ture plan. Jeremy Dawn, the saccessfnl president of the great company In
which John Towne himself bad made
his way, was dead. Jeremy Dawn
had died several months ago; but John,
Installed as succeeding president^ bad:
been too basy taseeirUie'carrylng otit
of the plan which his superior unfolded
to him on his sick bed.
The capable Junior member of the
business concern waa well aware of
the need of an efficient mistress la
his home. The pretentious building
that John had ntted for a dwelling,
was to bun merely a well ordered Institution. Upon several past occasions "
where he had been a guest at Mr.
Dawn's summer home. John had recognized the value of a woman's hospitality and home management. Tbe
poise and Intelligence of Mrs. Jeremy
Dawn charmed him. John Towne pictured his future wife as just such a
womnn, and dispaired of finding this
paragon of choice. Now, the wife that
.Jeremy-Dawn..had named for.-blm_waa_
no other than his own daughter, the
daughter of this perfect woman. The
girt hnd been at college, John remembered, during his visits to the
Dawn's home, but he had absolute confidence in his shrewd oldlfrlend's judgment.
As John Towne reached the last bill
fie~ decided; "wearfed of rough roads,
to leave his car In town and continue
the journey by rail. He'drov*/up to
a girl seated on a stile and asked the
way to the village st.-itfon.
"I hnve," John told her crossly, "Just
ten minutes to make my train."
"That," pleasantly remarked the girt
In the red sweater, **is nothing ID
my young life."
John stared, then he glared; which
appeared to the pretty creature Interesting but not disturbing. She continued the bum of her song as sli*
started down hill. All at once, John
realized amazingly th,e beauty of the
morning, that pink flowers peeped, between green leaves—that the p/rl'8
cheeks were rose pink too, that violets
bordered the country road, that the
girl's eyes were as deeply blue. She
glanced back over her shoulder presently, and smiled. John found himself
giving an answering grin. It was very,
very strange—It was undignified—but
he wanted more than anything to hear
her saucy speech again.
"As I am going your way," he condescended, "I might as well take yon
with me."
The girl tilted her chin. "Nobody
nHked you too, air," she quoted.
With an Impulse Inexplicable, he
Bought to detain her.
"You are on your way to the village?" he persisted.
The girl looked demurely down at

C. C. Rumsey and "The Pagan"
Charles Cary Rumsey sailed for
Europe the other day and on the very
same, day the New York newspapers
played.up hla name In big-type head
lines. And It was not because he
was leaving, either. The reason Is
far different.
First, os to Mr. Rumsey. He Is
wealthy, prominent In society and a
noted polo player. He Is a son-in-law
of Mrs. B. H. Hnrrlman, one of the
richest women In the world.
But Mr. Rumsey Is also a sculptor. And In his capacity as n sculptpr he fashioned a statue called "The
Pagan." It expressed his Idea of a
female Bolshevist. His Idea, among
other things, Included a woman without clothes. And it was evident that
he does not think highly of the female Bolshevist, for It cannot be said
that the nude woman is easy to
look at.
Anyway, when Mr. Rumsey sought
to exhibit "The Pagan" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, somebody objected. They appeared to think even less of "The Pagan" than does Mr. Rumney of the female Bolshevist. But art Is art. So Mr. Uumspy went to court
and based his suit on the proposition, "art for art's sake." He sued to force
the Architectural league to exhibit "The Pagan" In the Metropolitan Museum
of Art. • Of course "the public disputed—as It bas since the beginning on art
and In all Its manifestations.
New York Supreme Court Justice Newberger bonded down an opinion
nustalnlng Mr. Rumsey7
"
Hence the headlines In the New York newspapers.

ond scrubby black beard. Only n
few years ago he was an object of
Interest to the whole civilized world,
and on his fate was centered the
hopes and fears of the Jewish race.
For he is none other than Mendel
Beiliss, whose trial at Kleff eight
years ago for the murder of Andrew
Yushlnsky, a Christian boy, forms one
of the blackest episodes In the history
of the imperial regime of Russia. TUie
allegation of the crown prosecution,
instituted 'at the direct order of the
court at St. Petersburg, was that the
boy had been killed as a port of a
supposed Jewish ritual to make sacred
bread with Christian blood.
A sequel to the drama Is found In
the story that Vera Tcheberlak, the
woman leader of a band of criminals,
who had been the principal witness
against Beiliss on his trial and who herself wu»r.ncl«r suspicion, was executed
for the crime by the Bolshevik authorities at Kleff about six months ago.
"You
will remember I was acquitted In November, 1013, and went to
Palestine In 1014," he said, through on Interpreter. "Then the war broke out.
My Turklah and Russian money was worth little more than paper. So In

She moved aimlessly to the middle
of the room and paused again. A long
breath sighed on her Upa. As she
turned uneasily toward the veranda
a duplication of the gesture made her
aware of a mirror on the wall opposite. She Inspected herself gravely.
She had waked up without a shadow of doubt upon her understanding;
she recalled without a break every
link In thft chain of events which had
brought her to this place; she was
acutely conscious of her anomalous
position In this household, profoundly
disturbed . . .
A remote droning noise crept Into
the stillness of the evening so gradually thnt she noted It without any astonishment; but when, paining In volume,—It- became recognizable as the
sustained growl of a motorcar rapidly
climbing the mountain road, she began
to tremble.
The car swept swiftly across the far
side of the clearing, swung Into the
drive that led to the jrarage, and disappeared. The throbbing of Its motor
was~8tn.ea."lmpatlenf fd~o~Cafep^~8dWded on the gravel walk.
Her body was vibrntins now like a
reed. Almost the Impulse was more
strong than her will, to fly back .to
her bedchamber, lock herself in, refuse
to see or speak to him . . .
How could she face him and tell
him the truth? How break his heart?
And not his alone . . .
Running up the steps to the veranda
he S.RW her waiting in the shadows
and cried out to her In the name of
Leonora. She could Tiot reply. Mental rehearsal of what her attitude at
this meeting should be proved valueless. She had meant to guard, against
his arms with a respect, an authority,
which must command respect and win
her time enough to tell him; she was
captive and powerless before she
could lift a hand or articulate one
syllable of protest. The passion of
his kisses, the murmuring of his voice
were overpowering. The quickened, tumult of her pulses was like the stormIng of a strong surf. She loved
him . . .
Stunned, breathless, quivering, humiliated, she found that she had somehow contrived to put him from hor.
The pained perplexity In his gaze cut
Hke, a knife. She turned aafdo, that
uhe might not see . . .
"Forgive me." he begged. "I have
been Inconsiderate, thoughtless, In the
Joy of having you restored to me!
Forgive—"
"There la nothing to forgive," she
Interrupted. "You've done nothing
that wasn't right and natural. Only , . .
Oh I How can I make you understand?"
H« gave a holplena gesture. "Toll

I will try. I love you HO . . ,"
Touched, she nought to smile kindly

She said, with difficulty, In a low
voice, looking ^own at her plate:
"I am glad to be with you, Mario."
It was true: In spite of everytlilng,
she was strangely glnd,. But It waa
wrong: ot her to say ao. , . .
"I myself slept till noon," he volunteered. "Then I watted and waited
for ydu to wake up, but you were
sleeping like a child, you never stirred;
one had not the heart to disturb you.
Then, when It got so late, and I could
no longer put off going down Into the
valley, I gave Martha Instructions not
to leave your bedside till I returned
or you awakened."
She wondered: "Why?"
"I was afraid, I dared not leave
anything to chance. One could not
.foretell In what condition you would
wake up. If anything had happened
. . . I think another disappearance
would have driven me Insane!"
; She, avoided his eyes, and asked,
rather mechanically, more to say
something than out of desire to know:
"Why did you have to go down Into
the valley?"
_ -1'Tp telegraph_ New York and call.off
the detectives I had employed to look
for you. Also to tell the villagers you
were safely found, and thank them.
They were most kind, those good people; fully half a hundred of them
stayed up all night with me, while we
searched the woods; and though many
had—not—had- a- wink- of- sleep^- they
were still searching yesterday afternoon when I despaired and determined
to seek you In New York."
Thus reminded of the sad futility of
thnt search, she was too deeply disturbed to,, wonder why he could not
have telephoned to the village. . . .
The Japanese served their coffee In
the living room. It was now quite
dark, and the air though sweet was
keen. The flre was burning but the
windows and door were not closed;
and the faintly acrid smell of wood
smoke blended pleasantly with the
pungent perfume of the pines.
Mario placed an easy chair for
Prlsctlln, made It easier with cushions for her back and- head, offered
her cigarettes—and showed surprise
when she refused them—lighted one
for himself and threw It away half
smoked, and knelt down beside her
.chair, resting his elbows on Us arm
and capturing one of her hands.
She tried to steel herself against
the weak n CHS of the flesh, the protests
of her affections, the enervation of her
sympathies, reminding herself she
must be cruel to be kind. But It was
terribly hard to hurt him as she must.
It wasn't as If ahe didn't care . . .
Tho mere contact'of hla hand thrilled
her heart to a faster tempo, quickening
breath and pulsea, affected all her being with tremors of fear and gladnetta, made her Infirm and weak of
purpoaa. She had for him only a
pathetic apology for a smile, a forlorn
little ahake of her h«ad.
A deeper concern ah a do wed his face,
He aaked tenderly: "What la It, dear?
You muflt tell me . . . "
"It'a golngr to be DO hard," ahe aald
reluctantly, "to any what I muat, I
can't think how to begin, tixc«pt In
the hluntoflt way."
"Do not ho afraid. Tell mo frqnkly
how I have failed you. In what roapect

"Hut

"Then what It wna I did to, make

"I'm nuro you could have douo nothing—"
"Htlll, you ran away I"
"No—I didn't."

COAL FACTS
No; l.
Wise consumers, particularly domestic users, will begin now to lay in their
next winter's coal supply.
We find that all classes of consumers
are holding off.
This is a big mistake.
The production of coal is as/a cjonsequence, very low—just enough to meet
immediate needs.
YET:
There are plenty of cars for getting
the coal to you.
Weather conditions are favorable.
Prices, we believe, are as low as they
will be this year.- *
We are in this country just now passing through the last stages of post-war
conditions.

ANTHONY RICE
HI 2 Bellevue Avenue,
Nothing so surprises the foreigner
who is visiting Ainericii for the
first time, as the fact that so few
American homes have their own
vegetable beds. In every suburb
most homes have a lawn and
flower beds, but many do not
plant vegetables.
Possibly the high cost of living
during the past several years will
prove a blessing in the end, because
it is leading more and more people
to use to advantage the garden
space around their homes.
With a proper guide to the right
vegetables to plant, and w i t h
proper cultural instructions one can
readily secure from any suburban
backyard a succession of the finest
£resh vegetables superior in quality
to those secured in the average
market and produced at a trilling
cost. Any of our readers ci
secure free of charge un instructive

CfHESE two telegrams, one from
* the far East, the otherjrom the
•far West, are typical of the many
telegrams which are being received
from every section of the country
asking for immediate shipment
of Buick cars and for an increase
in dealers allotments.
Plant Your Investments as
Wisely as ,You Do
Your Seed
They prove in a most conclusive
manner the demand for Buick cars
—a demand which is particularly
gratifying now when motor car
values are being scrutinized as
never before and when final sales
are consummated upon the basis
of greater relative values, and
actual demonstrated
worth.

Active buying, too, 5T
stimulated by a realization of the periodical
shortage of Buick cars
and the desire to insure Spring deliveries
by the Immediate placing of orders.
