CHAPTCtl IV Continued.
tttHO Is Jubal tho Ugly One?" I
W asked' "Arul why t,1' you run
E away from him?"
' she looked at me In surprise.
"Why does a woman run nway from a,
man?" S! answered my question with
another.
"They do not, whero I como from," I
replied. "Sometimes thoy run after
them "
But sho could not understand. Nor
could I E her to grasp tho fact that I
was of another world. She was qulto as
nosltlvo that creation was originated sole
ly to produco her own kind and tho world
the lived In as nro mnny of tho tauter
world.
"Hut Jubal," I Insisted. "Tell mo about
Mm, and why ou rnn away to be chained
by tho neck nnd scourged ncross tho fnco
of a world."
"Jubal tho Ugly Ono placed his trophy
beforo my father's house. It was tho
-head of a mighty tandor. It remained
thcro and no greater trophy was placed
Iiesldo It. So I ltnew that Jubal tho Ugly
Ono would como and tak mo at his mate.
"None other so powerful wished me, or
they would hnvo slain a mightier beast
nnd thui hnvo won mo from Jubal. Jty
oilier la not a mighty hunter Onco ho
Iwas, but a sndolc tossed him, nnd never
again had ho tho full uso of his right
trm.
"Mv brother, Dncor tho Strong One, had
J gone to the land of Sari to steal a mato
iUor himself. Thus there was none, father,
brother or lover, to savo mo from Jubal
KiUhe Ugly One, nnd i inn awny and hid
among the hills that skirt tho land -of
Amoz. And there these Sngoths found
me and made mo captlVo."
"What will they do with you?" - asked.
"Where aro they taking us?"
Again slio looked her Incredulity.
. "I can nlmost bellovo t. at you aro of
mother world," sho said, "for otherwise
such Ignorance were inexplicable. Do you
really mean Hint you do not know that
tho Sagoths are the creatures of tho
'Slahars tlio mighty Mahars, who think
that tliev own Pollucldar nnd nil that
...hlla nf irrnwtt iinnn Ha ttilrfnrrv fi-
creeps or burrows benenth, or swims
within Its lakes and oceans, or flics
through its nlr? Next you will bo telling
mo that you never beforo heard of the
Maharsi"
I was loath to do It, and further incur
her scorn; but thero was no alternative
if I were to absorb knowledge, so I mndo
a clean brenst of my pitiful Ignorance as
to tho mighty llahars.
She was shocked. But sho did her very
best to enlighten me, though mucli that
sho said w.as as Qrock would have been
to her,
Sho described tho Mo.hn.ra largely by
comparison. In this way they wero llko
Unto thlpdars, In that to tho hairless lidl.
About all I gleaned of them waB that
they wero qulto hideous, had wings and
web feel; lived In cltlca built beneath
tho ground: could swim under water for
great dlstnnces, nnd wore very, very wise.
Tho Sagoths wero their weapon of of
fenso and defense, nnd tho races llko her
self wero their hands and feetj they wero
tho slaves and servants who did all tho
manual labor.
The Jtahars wero tho heads tho brains
of the Inner world. I longed to sco this
wondrous rnco of supermen.
I'erry learned tho language with me,
When we halted, ns wo occasionally did,
though sometimes tho halts seemed nges
apart, ho would Join In the conversation,
as would Qhak tho Hairy Ono, ho wlio
was chained Just ahead of Dlan tho Beautiful.
Ahead of Qhak was Hooja tho Sly One.
He, too, entered tho conversation occa
sionally. Most of his remnrks wero di
rected to Dlan tho Tleautlful. It didn't
tako half an oyo to seo that ho had de
veloped n bad caso; but tho girl appeared
totally oblivious to his thinly veiled ad
vances. Did I say thinly veiled? There Is a
raco of men In New Zealand, or Australia,
I have forgotten which, who Indicate their
proforenco for tho lady 01 their affections
by banging her ovor tho head with n
bludgeon. By comparison with, this
method Hooja's lov'e making might bo
called thinly veiled, At first It caused mo
to blush violently,, though 1 hnvo known
freedom and llconso In less fashionabla
plnccs oft Broadway and In Vienna and
Hnmburg.
But tho girl I Sho was magnificent. It
wns easy to seo that sho considered her
self entirely above nnd apart from her
present surroundings nnd compnny.
'Sho talked with mo nnd with Perry nnd
with tho taciturn Ghak bocnuso wo wero
respectful, but she couldn't oven seo
Hooja tho Sly One, much lest hear him,
and that irindo him furious. Ho tried to
get one of tho Sagoths to movo tho girl
up ahead of hint In tho slave gang, but
the fellow only poked him with his spear
nnd told hi in that ha had selected the girl
for his own property that he would buy
her from tho Mnhnrs ns soon ns they
roached I'hutra. r
Phutra, It seemed, was tho city of our
destination.
After pnselng ovor tho first chain of
' -ltnlns wo skirted .a salt sea, upon
wnose bosom swam countless horrid
things. Soal-llko creatures thore were,
with long necks stretching 10 nnd more
feet nbovo their enormous bodies and
whoso snnko heads were split with gap
ing mouths bristling with countless fnngs.
Thoro wero huge tortoises, too, paddling
among these other reptiles, which Perry
said were plcslosaurs of the Lias. I didn't
question his voracity; they might have
been most anything.
Dlan told mo they were tandornzes, nr
tnndors of tho sea, nnd that the other
and more fearsome leptlles which occa
sionally roso ftom tho deep to do battle
with thorn were azdyryths, or sea
dyryths Perry called them ichthyosaurs.
They rosomblcd a tvhnle with the head of
an alligator.
T had forgotten whnt little geology 1
had studied at school about all that re
mained wns an Impression of horror that
the illustrations of restored prehistoric!
monsters had made upon mo, and a well
defined belief that any man with a pig's
shank and a vivid Imagination could "re
store" most nny sort of palcollthlo mon
ster ho saw fit, nnd take rank as a first
clnsi paleontologist.
Bat when I Bnw theso sleek, shiny car
casses shimmering In tho sunlight as thoy
emerged from the ocean, shaking their
giant heads; when I saw tho waters roll
from their sinuous bodies In mlnlaturo
waterfalls as they glided hlthor and
thither, now upon tho surface, now half
suomergeu; ns I saw them meet, open.
mouthed, hissing nnd snorting In their
titanic nnd Interminable warring, I real
ized how futile Is man's poor, weak Imag
ination oy comparison with naturo'B In
credible genius.
And Porryl Ho wns absolutely flabber
gasted. He said so himself.
"David," he romarked, after we had
marched for a long tlmo besldo that awful
sea "David, I used to teach geology and
I thought thnt I believed what I taught,
but now I seo that I did not believe It
that It Is lmpo88lblo for man to bellovo
such things as theso unless ho sees them
with his own oyos.
"We tako thlnga for granted, pcrhnps,
because wo aro told them over and over
ngnln, and havo no way of disproving
thorn llko religions, for example; but Wo
don't believe them; wo only think wo do.
If you ever got back to tho outer world
you will find thnt tho geologists and
paleontologists will be tho first to set you
down n liar, for thoy know that no Buch
creatures as they rcstoro ovor oxlsted. It
Is all right to tmagino them as existing In
nn equally Imaginary epoch but now?
poof!"
At tho next halt Hooja the Sly Ono
managed to find enough slack chain to
pormlt him to worm himself back qulto
close to Dlan.
Wo wero all standing, and as ho edged
near tiio girl sho turned her bnck upon
him In such n truly earthly feminlno
mnnncr that I could scarco roprcss a
amllo. But It was a short-lived smile, for
en tlto instant tho Sly Ono's hand fell
upon the girl's bnro arm, Jerking her
rourthly toward him.
I was not then familiar with tho cus
toms of social ethics which prevail within
Pollucldar, but oven so I did not need the
appealing look which tho girl shot at mo
from her magnificent eyc3 to Influence my
subsequent act.
What tho Sly Ono's intention was I
paused not to Inquire; but, instead, beforo
ho could lay hold of her with his othor
hand I placed a right to the point of his
Jaw that felled him In his tracks.
A roar of approval went up from thoso
of tho other prisoners and the Sagoths
who had witnessed tho brief drama; not,
as I later learned, becauso I had cham
pioned tho girl, but for tho neat and, to
them, astounding method by which I had
bested Hooja.
And tho girl? At first sho looked at mo
with wide-wondering eyes, nnd then sho
dropped her head, her face half averted,
and a delicate flush suffused iter check.
For a moment sho stood thus in silence,
and then her head went high nnd she
turned her back upon me as she had Upon
Hooja.
Soma of the prisoners laughed, and I
saw tha face of Qhak the Hairy Ona go
very black as he looked at mo search
Ingly. And what I could seo Of Dlan'a
cheek went suddenly-front red to white.
Immediately after wo had resumed the
march, and though 1 realized that In somo
way I had offended Dlnn the Beautiful, I
could not prevail upon her to talk with
mo that I might learn wherein I had
erred. In fact, I might qulto as well have
been addressing a sphynx for all the at
tention I got.
At last my foolish prldo stepped In and
preventod my making nny further at
tempts, and thus a companionship that
had como to mean a great deal to mo
was cut off.
Thereafter I confined my conversation
to Perry,

FARMER SMITH'S
RAINBOW CLUB
THE COMPOSING ROOM
Dear Children Tho two useful workers in the world to whom your editor
takes off his hat are tho school teachers and printers.
Printers are very wonderful persons, because they know how to spell
and how to punctuate, both of which your editor does not know how to do
and never expects to learn except by practice.
One wonderful thing about printers is the fact that they wprk in a room
which is called "the composing room." In this mysterious and wonderful
place all of tho stories and articles which are written are put into type,
assembled in their, proper places and made ready to go to tho great, hungry
presses down in tno basement, which run off thousands upon thousands of
papers every hour. Just who the gentleman who invented this composing
room was I do not know, but he was indeed a great man, because in this
room you can learn to compose yourself. It would not do to get rattled with
bo many things to do and the composing room is a sort of balance wheel in tho
hurly burly, whirligig in the life of a newspaper and it is a comfort to think
that there is such a thing as a composing room.
It seems to me that when things get upside down in "your homo" you
might hnvo one room that you can call your "composing room," where you
may go and silently compose yourself.
' Is there anything you want to ask me about how a newspaper i3 con
ducted? Of course, there are lots of things which are very interesting, but they
are so near to mo that I may not think of them. Suppose you write mo a
letter. PARMER SMITH,
Children's Editor, Evening Ledgeh.

if "'w'-fc f
vances toward tho girl, nor did ho again
venture near me.
Again tho weary and apparently Inter
minable marching became a perfect night
mare of horrors to me.
The moro firmly fixed became the reali
zation thnt tho orlrl'a friendship had
meant so much to me tho moro I enmo to
miss It, nnd the moro lmpregnablo tho
barrier of silly pride. But I was very
young and would not ask Qhak for tho
explanation which I' was suro ho could
glvo and that might havo mado every
thing all right again.
On tho march, or during halls, Dlan re
fused consistently to notice mo. At last
I became desperato and determined to
swallow my self-esteem and again beg her
to toll me how I hnd offended nnd how 1
might mnko reparation.
I mado up my mind that I should do this
at tho next halt Wo wero approaching
another rnngo of mountains nt tho tlmo,
and when wo renched them, Instead of
winding ncross them through some high
flung pass, wo entered n. mighty natural
tunnel a series of lahyrinthlnn grottos,
dark as Erebus.
Tho guards had no torches or lights ot
any description. In fact, we had seen no
nrtiflclnl light or sign of fire slnco wo had
entered Pcllucldnr. In a land of perpetual
noon thcro Is not need of light nbovo
ground, yet I marveled that they had no
means of lighting their wa through theso
dark subterrnnean passages.
So wo crept nlong at a snail's pace,
with much 'stumbling and falling tho
guards keeping up a singsong chant
ahead of us, Interspersed with certain
high notes which I found always Indicated
rough places and turns.
Halts wero now moro frequent, but I
did not wish to speak to Dlan until I
could seo from tho expression of her faco
how sho was receiving my apologies.
At Inst a faint glow ahead forewarned
us of tho end of tho tunnel, for which I
for ono wns dovoutly thankful.
Then nt n sudden turn we emerged Into
the full light of tho noonday sun.
But with It cumo n sudden realization
of what meant to mo a real catastrophe.
Dlan was gone, and with her half a
dozen other prisoners.
CHAPTER-V.
SLAVES.
THE guaids, too, saw tho escape ot
Dlan nnd tho othor prisoners, and tho
ferocity of their rage wa3 terriblo to be
hold.
Their awesome, bestial faces wero con
torted In the most diabolical expression-)
ns they ncusod each other of responsi
bility for vho loss.
Finally chey fell upon us, beating us
with their spear shafts and hatchets.
They had already killed two. and were
likely to have finished tlto balance of us,
when their leader finally put a stop to
tho brutal slaughter.
Never In nil my life had I witnessed n
moro horrlblo exhibition of bestinl rage.
I thanked Heaven that Dlan had not been
one of thoso left to endure It.

"I wish you would tell me a story," said
Airs. Hop Toad to her son Willie one
night as she was putting him to bed.
"Why should I tell you a story?" asked

"Oht" said Willie, "suppose I would
rather recite a poem?"

It Is not do rtgueur to keep gloves on
