firing H stealthily from Its holster, a
talcs asked In perfectly good IingUsh:

IBayiiM started so that ho nearly fell
from the brunch.

B'Wriat did you think I was?" asked
Korak.
?"A gorilla" replied Baynes honestly.
I Korak laughed.
i"Who are you?" he repented.
t "I'm an Englishman by tho name of
Baynes; butiiho the devil arc you?" asked
the Hon. Morison,
I "They call me tho Killer," replied Korak,
thing the English translation ot tho namo
mat amu naa given nun. Aim men, alter
a pause, during which the. Hon. Morison
attempted to pierce tho darkness and catch
a glimpse of the features ot th Strang"

"What aro you doing hore?"
"Tho girl was stolon I am trying to
rescue her." "J"h u
"Stolon!" Tlie word ,vms shot out llko
a bullet from n gun. "Who stole her?"
'Tho Swedo trader, Hanson," replied
Baynes,
"Where Is ho?"
Baynes related to Korak alt that had
transpired slneo ho had come upon Han
sons camp. Before he was done tho first
gray of dawn had relieved tho darknoss.
Korak made the Kngllshman comfortable
In tho tree. He tilled his canteen from tho
river nml fetched him fruits to eat.
"1 am going to tho Swede's camp," ho
announced. "I will bring the girl back
to you here."
"I shall go, too, then," Instated Baynes
"It Is my right and my duty, for Bhe was
to have become my wife."
Kornk winced, "Vou are wounded
You could not make tho trip," ho said.
"1 can go much faRter nlone."
"do, then," replied Baynes; "but I shall
follow. It Is my right nnd duty."
"As you will," replied Korak with a
Rhrug. If tho man wanted to be killed it
was nono of his affair. IIo wanted to kilt
lilm himself, hut for Merloni's snke ho
would not. If Bho loved him, then ho must
do what ho could to preserve him, but ho
could not prevent his following lilm, moro
than to advise him ngnmst It, and this lie
did, earnestly.
And bo Korak set out rapidly toward tho
north, and limping Blowly nnd pnlnfully
along, Boon far to tho rear, came tho tired
and wounded Baynes. Kornk had reached
tho river bank opposite Malblhn's camp
beforo Baynes had covered two miles.
liato In tho afternoon tho KngllRhman
wnR Btill plodding wearily along, forced to
stop often for rcBt, when ho heard tho
sound of tho galloping hoof of n horso be
hind lilm. Instinctively ho drew Into tho
concealing follago of tho underbrush, nnd
a moment later a white-robed Arab dashed
by.
Baynes did not hall tho rider. He had
heard 6f tho nature of tho Arabs -who
penetrate thus far to the south, nnd what
ho had heard had convinced him that n
nnalto or a panther would ns quickly be
friend him ns ono of theso villainous rena
gades from tho northland.
When Adbul Kamak had passed out of
sight toward tho north, Baynes resumed
his Veary march. A halt hour later he
was again surprised by the unmistakable
sound of galloping horses. This time' there
wero many.
Onco moro ho sought n hiding place; but
It chanced that ho was crossing n clearing
which offered llttly opportunity for conceal
ment. He broke into a slow trot tho best
that hu could do In his weakened condition;
but it did not sufllco to cairy htm to safety,
and beforo -ho renched the opposite sldo of
the cleiirlng a band of white-robed horsemen
dashed into view behind him.
At sight of him they shouted In Arabic,
which, of course, ho could not understand;
and then they closed about him, threaten
ing and angry. Their questions wero un
intelligible to him. nnd no moio could they
Interpret his Kngllsh.
At last, evidently out of patience, tho
leader ordered two of his men to seize
him, which they lost no tlmo in doing.
They disarmed him nnd .oidered him to
climb to the rump of ono of the horses,
and then the two who had been dotailed to
guard him, turned nnd rode back toward
tho south, whilo tho others continued their
pursuit of Adul Kamak.
As Korak came out upon the bank of
thu river ncross from which ho could Bee
tho camp of Mnlblhn, ho was at a loss as
to how ho was to cross. Ho could seo
men moving about among the huts Inside
tho boma evidently Hanson was still
there. Korak did, not know tho tme Identity
of Merlem'a abductor.
How wns ho to cross? Not even ho
would dare the perils of the river almost
ccrtnln death. For a moment ho thought,
then wheeled and aped away Into the Jun
gle, uttering a peculiar cry, Bhrlll and
piercing, Now nnd again he would hnlt
to llBten ns though for an answer to his
weird call, then on ngatn, deeper nnd deep
er Into tho wood.
At last his 'listening ears were rewarded
by tho sound they craved the trumpeting
of a bull elephant, and a few moments
later Korak broke through tho trees Into
the presence of Tnntor, standing with up
raised trunk, waving his great cars.
"Quick, Tantor!" nhptited the npeman,
and tho beast swung Jilm to his head.
"Hurry I" and the mighty pachyderm lum
bered oft through the jungle, guided by
kicking of naked heels against tho sides
of his head.
Toward tho northwest Korak guided his
hugo mount, until they came out upon the
river a inllo or moro nbove the Swede's
camp, at a point where Koink knew that
tbero was an elephant ford. Never pnus
Ing, the npeman urged tho beast Into the
river, nnd with trunk held high, Tnntor
forged steadily toward tho opposite bank.
Once an unwary crocodile attacked him.
but the Blnunus trunk dived beneath the
surface, and grasping the amphibian about
the middle, dragged it to light and hurled
It a hundred feet down stream. And so,
In snfety, they mndo tho opposite shore.
Korak perched high and dry abovo tho
turgid flood.
Then back toward the south Tantor
moed, steadily, relentlessly, and with a
Bwlnglng gait which took no heed of nny
obstacle other than the larger Jungle trees.
At times Korak was forced to abandon the
broad head nnd take to the trees nbove,
so close tho branches raked tho back of
tho elephant; but at last they came to tho
edge of tho clearing whero lay the camp
of the renegade Swede.
Nor even then did thoy hesitate or halt.
Tho gato lay upon tho east side of the
camp, facing tho river. Tnntor nnd Korak
approached from tho north. There was no
gato there; but what cared Tnntor or Ko
rak for gates?
At a word from tho npeman, nnd raising
his tender trunk high abovo tho thorns,
Tantor brenntcd tho homn, walking through
It as though It had not existed. A dozen
blacks squatting before their huts looked
up at the nolso of his approach! With
sudden howls of terror nnd amaze, they
leaped to their feet and (led for tho open
gates.
Tantor would have pursuod. IIo hated
man, and ho thought that Korak had come
to hunt theso; hut tho npeman held him
back, guiding him toward n largo canvas
tent that roso In tho centre of tho clearing
There should bo tho girl and her abductor.
llalblhn lay In a hnmmock beneath a
canopy beforo his tent. His wounds wero
painful, and he had lost much blood, Ho
was very weak. Ho looked up In surprise
ns ho heard tho screams of his men nnd
saw them running toward tho gate,
And then, from around tho corner ot
his tent loomed a huge bulk, nnd Tantor,
tho great tusker, towered above him.
Mnlblhn'H boy, feeling neither ntTcctlon
nor loyalty for his master, broke and ran
at the first gllmpso of the beast, and Mal
hlhn wns left nlone and helpless. The
elephant stopped a couplo of paces from
tho wounded man's hammock. Malhlhn
cowered, moaning. He was too weak to
escape. Ho could only IIo there with
staring eyes, 'gazing In horror Into tho
hlood-rlmmed, angry llttlo orbs fixed upon
him, and await his death.
Then, to his nstonshlment, a man slid
to the ground from tho elephant's back.
Almost at onco JIalblhn recognized tho
Btrange figure a3 that of tho creature who
consorted with apes nnd baboons tho

RAINBOW CLUB
OJT WHAT USE IS A PLY?
Dear Children Recently your editor liad the exquisite pleasure of address-
ilS or rather talking" to one of the McCall Annex Continuation Classes. Before
Ilfewntto deliver his message he asked the members of tho class to send him the
Dpwtlons which they would like answered.
One of these questions, all of which showed thought, was: "Of what use is
BJyt"
Where are many thintrs in this world which appear useless to us, but when we
IWc of the grand scheme of tho universe we seo that everything has a use and
Wjthing has a place.
;For ono thincr, a fly is food for a turtle, as turtle is food for something else,
figisoon. throughout the animal kingdom.
Whether the turtle could live without flies is another matter, but we may
RMy say that they have their place in the scheme of life as it exists on this earth.
Hf-In answering the young man, your editor took occasion to call attention to
yfitd that MAN, of all animals, has the least means of defense. It is necessary
Iwolm to carry a revolver or a eun for nrotection. while a bear has his means
protection with him, aa have most all other living things.
jUeing something of a student of flies, your editor asked the Continuation
us this question, which vou mnv have heard before: Does a flv licht on the
ylpK nd then turn over or docs ho turn over and then light?
I Your editor does not know. Further, ho has not seen a fly walk straight
gnwall. Have you?
fiWith your kind nermission. vour editor will take un other ouestions which
EH asked by theso interesting young people. FARMER SMITH,

BIIiHE BUBULE'S GUMDROP
By Farmer Smith
Llttlo Blllle Bubble waa resting quite
peacefully In tho water of tho little brook.
It was a very hot day and little Dllllo
began to feel uncomfortable, so ho floated
Into tho shade under the bridge
Two little girls wero standing on the
bridge. Now Blllle was a very curious llttlo
Bubble.
"I wonder what they aro talking nbout?"
ho thought to himself. He listened very
carefully.
"Let's throw some candy to the flehes,"
said one llttlo girl as she put her little fat
hand into a paper bag,
Tho next mlnuto she leaned over the rail
of tho bridge and dropped something down
into the water,
Blllle waa so Interested he didn't have
time to get out the wny and something
round and soft Just grazed hla llttlo Bide.
"Oh, my," said little Blllle Bubbles; "I
feel so sweet I could just about eat myself,"
and ho fairly shook himself with delight he
felt so good.
"Guess I'll go down to tho bottom and
see what that was," said Bllllo, and, making
his little whirlpool, down ho went.
Right on tho bottom of the brook ho found
something pink and round nnd sparkling.
"Hello, sweet thing!" said Blllle. "What's
your name?"
"aum Drop," answered the nice pink lit
tle ball.
"What's all that glitter on you?" asked
Bllllo as ho came closer and looked curiously
at the GumDrop.
"That's sugar," said the Gum Drop,
"That's what makes mo so sweet."
"Yum, yum I" said Blllle. "I like the
Bound of that." He came so close to tho
llttlo Gum Drop that he began to feel
sweeter and sweeter,
"Go away," said the Gum Drop, "Don't
melt me all awny."
But little Blllle just couldn't keep away
from that Gum Drop, and beforo the week
was out little Blllle had melted It nil away.
"I think I will go back underneath the
bridge," said Blllle, "and maybe some little
girl will throw me another Gum Drop."
A Narrow Escape
ny TiLLin jtAncus.
One fine summer morning two boys went
Into a field to pick some blueberries. Both
were very roughly dressed. One was called
James and the other Harold.
While they walked along the field pick
ng blueberries, Harold suddenly noticed
a space where the blueberries grew very
thickly. Not knowing It was private
property, the boys -Jumped over the fence
and began to pick the berries, then the
farmer came along. He was a tall and
rather thin man with a long white beard.
When he saw the boys playing In the
garden, he sent out his big savage dog
after them. Aa soon as the dog Jumped
over the fence, he caught James by the
coat and began to pull him around on the
ground, Harold quickly escaped. After
a long struggle with the dog, James' coat
suddenly unbuttoned and he quickly slipped
out of It and Joined v Harold In escape.

"Where Is the girl?" demanded Kornk,
In nugllsh
"What girl?" asked Mnlblhn. "There Is

"The white girl," replied Korak. "Do

"It was not II" ciled Malhlhn. "It wns

Ho wished to take her to London with
him .She waa willing to go. Ilia name
Is linyncR. tin to lilm, If you want to know
when' the girl Is."
"I have Just come from him." paid Ko
rak. "lie Bent me to you, Tho girl Is not

a threatening step toward the Swede.
Malhlhn nhrnnk from tho nnger In tho
other's fnco.
"I will tell you '" ho cried. "Do not h.irm
me, and I will toll you all that I know.
I had tho girl here ; hut It wih Baynes
who persuaded her to leave her friends
he had promised to marry her. Ho doca
not know who sho la; but I do, nnd I know
that there la it great reward for whoever
takes her hack to her people It waa only
tho reward I wanted. Hut alio escaped and
crossed the river In ono of my ranoes. I
followed her, hut the sheik waa there, God
knows how; nnd ho captured her and at
tacked mc nnd drove mo hack. Then camo
Ilaynoa, angry because ho had lost tho
girl, and ahot mo If you want her. go to
tho shclk and ask lilm for her alio has
passed as hla daughter blnco childhood."
"Sho la not tho sheik's d.iughter7" asked
Korak.
"Sho Is npt," replied Mnllilhn.
"Who Is alio then7" asked Korak.
Hero Malblhn saw his dinner. Possibly
he oould mako use of hla knowlcdgo after
nil It might even buy hack hla life for
him. Ho wna not so ci editions aa to bellevo
that tills savage npeman would have any
compimctlona about slaying lilm.
"When you find her, I will telt you,"
he said, "if you will promise to spnro my
life and divide tho reward with me. If you
kill me. you will never know, for only thu
Bhelk knows, and he will neer tell. Tho
girl herself la iguiiiaut of her origin."
"If you havo told mo tho truth, I will
spare you," said Korak. "I shall go now
to tho shclk'a Ullage, and If tho girt la not
there, I shall return and slay you. Aa
for the other Information you have, If tho
gill wants It when wo havo found her, wo
will find a way to purchase It from you."
The look In the Killer's eyes and hla
emphasis of the word "pin chase" noro
none too reassuring to Mnlblhn. I-Ividently,
unless ho found means to escape, this dovll
would hao both his secret and his llfo ho
fore ho was dono with lilm Ho wished
he would bo gone and take- his ovil-eycd
companion nway with lilm. The swaying
bulk towering high above him and tho
ugly llttlo eyes of the elephant watching
his every movo made Malhlhn nervous.
Kornk atepped Into tho Swede's tent to
nssuro himself that Merlem waa not hid
there. As ho disappeared from view, Tan
tor, his eyes still Qxed upon Mnlblhn, took
a step nearer the man.

RASHES AT THIS SEASON OF YliJAR
AND HOW TO TREAT THEM
By WILLIAM A. EVANS, M. D. '
Poison Ivy Tho rash starts with In
tense Itching. Tho skin Is red and feels
hard. Presently small bumpt appear and
In a short wlillo these bumps nro found to
bo pinpoint or ptnhend wnter blisters. The
Itching continues throughout the disease.
Nettlernsh Itching Is tho most promi
nent sign. As a general proposition It pre
cedes the rash. Tho patches nro bright red,
large, smooth nnd a llttlo hard. A little later
the patch gets lighter In color In the centre.
An It fades tho edges first become pale, then
tho rash dlsappcats. There are novor nny
blisters or ulcers. Itching Is present from
start to finish. The dlsenso may como and
go, appearing In crops.
NcttlernRh results from some form of poi
soning. The most frequent cause Is food
poisoning. The more frequent cnlfei are
strawberries, buckwheat, salmon and other
canned fish, shell n-di.
Tho explanation of the disease Is that Its
subjects, having been once poisoned by some
food, nre thereafter exquisitely senMtlvo to
that food. The food having been digested
and absorbed acts as a polon to the nerve
endings In the skin. It Is not spoiled food
which causes neltlerasli. Tho food li good
enough for most people Tho subject1) of
notlerash are spoiled at least so far as
cerjaln foods arc concerned. Tho rashes
produced by prolonged eating of buckwheat
and oatmeal aie more persistent and less
Irritating than the fiareup nettlrriishes from
sea food and Btraw berries
Shingles and Fever Blisters These nro
utcers rnthcr than rashes, They s'lirt with
a html painful lump Pain Is tibout ns
prominent In shingles ns Is Itching In nettle
I ash, 1'iCHPiitly the surface of these lumps
break, producing superficial painful Ulcers.
While these usually develop on thfc lips and
edge of other body orifices, they may appear
un where on tho body. When they appear
mi tho chest tho dlsenso Is called shingles.
I'rlckly Heat This rash Is especially Ha
bio to appear on tho tender skin of babies.
Adults aro less subject to It. It Is due to
Irritation of tho skin from sweat There
fore It shows Itself under the arms, In the
creases of the thighs and over the body. It
Is 11 hoiirce of much Itrltntlou when It af
reets a baby Adults do not complain much
of It. It does not Itch. To prevent It
lighter clothing must be worn and less food
must bo eaten. Light cotton me-Ii under
won r Is serviceable. Bathing with soda
water Is helpful. A good dusting powder
consists of salicylic avid, 5 grains ; boraclo
acid, 10 grains; starch, 2 ounces
Sweat Hash Sometimes a flue blister
rash appears on parts of tho body continu
ously soaked In sweat. This lash does not
Itch or pain.
Bath Itch Certain tender-skinned peoplo
nro subject to bath Itch at this season of
tho yenr. They should bathe less frequent
ly nnd make uso of bran water as a sub
stitute for soap and ttiiter. They can clean
tho body fairly well with cold cream and
other ointments, using an occasional shower
as needed.

Tho ticntment of the heroin habit Is the
samo as the treatment of thq morphines
habit. It consists In tho main of tho, rapid
withdrawal of the drug and very free
purgation. Although tlio amount you aro
taking Is not excessive, you cannot cure
yourself. You hod better go to an Institu
tion and take a cure. If you can not do
that, your homo physician can treat you,
provided ho will lock you up In Jail wlillo

couple of good nurses to control you. Your
physician will probably give you tho Lam
