CHAPTER XXVI
In tho Shcilt's Douar
fpHE sheik glowered at the prisoner which
J.hls two men brought back to him from
the north. Ho had sent tho party after

itiad of his crstwnlle lieutenant they had
lent back a wounded an'd useless English-

penniless beggar of a trader who had wan
iaei from hl3 own district and become lost.
He was worthless.
' The sheik scowled terribly upon him.
"Who are you?" he asked In French.
"I am the Hon. Morison Baynes, of Lon
don," replied his prisoner.
ine Lille sounueu Liiuilliailii;, uiiu ai uiiua

His intentions, If not his attitude toward
Underwent a rhnncn i,a Mn,.u
cstlgate further.
"What arO you dolna- nnnrhlnn- tr. ...
country?" ho growled.
"I was not Aware that you owned Africa,"
replied the Hon. Morison. "I was searching
for a young woman who had been abducted
from the home of a friend, The abductor
wounded me and I drifted down rhcr In a
canoe I was on my way back to his camn
when your men selied me."
"A young woman?" asked tho sheik, "Is
that she?" and ho pointed to his left over
toward a clump of bushes near tho stock,
ado.
Baynes looked In tho direction Indicated,
and his eyes went wide, for there. Bitting
cross-legged upon tho ground, her back to
ward thorn, was Merlem.
"Morlcml" ho shouted, starting toward
her J but one of his guards grasped his arm
and Jerked him back. The girl leaped to her
feet and turned toward him as she heard
her namo.
"Morison I" she cried.
"Be still and stay where you nret"
snapped the sheik; and then to Baynes:
"So you are tho dog of a Christian who
stolo my daughter from me?"
"Your daughter?" ejaculated Baynes.
"She Is your daughter?"
"Sho Is my daughter." growled the Arab.
"and sho Is not for nny unbeliever. You
have earned death, Kngllshmnn: but If you
can pay for your life 1 will give It to you."
Baynes' eyes were still wide nt the unex
pected sight of Merlem here In the camp of
the Arab when he had thought her In "Han
son's" power. What had happened? How
had sho escaped the Swede7 Had the Arab
taken her by force from him, or had Bho
come voluntarily back to the protection of
the man who called her daughter?
Ho would have given much for a word
with her. If she Was safe hero ho might
only harm her by antagonizing tho Arab In
nn attempt to tnke her away and return hor
to her English friends. No longer did thes
Hon. Morison harbor thoughts of luring tho
girl to London,
"Woll?" naked the sheik.
"Oh," exclaimed Baynes, "I beg your par
don I was thinking of something else.
Why, yes, of course ; glad to pay, I'm sure.
How much do you think I'm worth?"
The sheik named a sum that was rather
less exorbitant than tho Hon, Morison had
anticipated. The latter nodded his head In
token of hla entire willingness to pay. Ho
would havo promised n sum far beyond his
resources Just as readily, for ho had no In
tention of paying anything his ono reason
for seeming to comply with tho sheik's do
mands wns that tho wait for tho coming of
tho ransom money would give him tho time
nnd tho opportunity to free Merlem If ho
found that sho wished to bo freed.
Tho Arab's statement that ho was her
father naturally raised the question In the
Hon. Morlson's mind as to precisely what
tho girl's attitude toward escape might be.
It seemed, of course, preposterous that this
fair and beautiful young woniun should pro
fer to remain In tho filthy douar of un illit
erate old Arab, rather than return to tho
comforts, luxuries and congenial associa
tions of tho hospitable African bungalow
from which tho Hon. Morison had tricked
her.
Tho "man flushed at the thought of his
duplicity which these recollections nrou.'ed
thoughts which were Interrupted by the
sholk, who instructed tho Hon. Morison to
wrlto a letter to tho British consul at Al
giers, dictating the exact phraseology of It
with a fluency that Indicated to his captive
that this was not the first time tho old
rascal had occasion to negotiate with Eng
lish relatives for the ransom of a kinsman.
Baynes demurred when he saw that tho
letter was addressed to tho consul nt Al
giers, saying that It would require the hot
ter part of a year to get the money back to
him; but tho sheik would not listen to
Baynes' pfan to send a messenger directly
to tho nearest coast town, nnd from there
communicate with tho nearest cable station,
sending tho Hon. Morlson's "request for
funds straight to his own solicitors.
No, tho Bhelk was cautious and wary. Ha
knew his own plan had worked well In lha
past. In the other were too many untried
elements. He was In no hurry for tho
money ho could wait n year, or two yeara
If necessary : but It should not requlro ovef
six months,
He turned to ono of tho Araba who had
been standing behind him nnd gavo the fel
low Instructions In relation to tho prisoner,
Baynes could not Understand tho words
spoken In Arabic, but the Jerk of tho thunih
toward him showed thnt he was the subject
of conversation. The Arab addressed by the
sheik bowed to his master nnd beckoned
Baynes to follow him.
The Englishman looked toward the sheik
for confirmation. Tho latter nodded impa
tiently, mid tho Hon. Morison roso nnd fol
lowed his guide toward a natlto hut which
lay ctoso besldo ono of tho outside goatskin
tents
Into the dark, stilling Interior his guard
led him. then stepped to tho doorway and
called to a couple of black boys squatting
before their own huts. They came promptly,
and, In nccordanco with the Arnbs Instruc
tions, bound Baynes' wrists and ankles Be
curely. Tho Englishman objected strenuously;
but as neither the blacks nor the Arab could
understand a word ho said, his pleas were
wasted.
Having bound him, they left tho hut. Tho
Hon. Morison lay for a long time con
templating the frightful future which
awaited him during tho long months which
must Intervene before his friends lenrned
of his predicament and could get succor
to him Now he hoped that they would
send tho ransom ho would gladly pay nil
that ho was worth to bo out of this holo.
At first It had been his Intention to cable
his solicitors to send no money, but to
communicate with tho British West African
authorities nnd havo an' expedition sent to
his aid.
His patrician noso wrinkled In disgust
as his no3trlt3 wcro assailed by tho awful
stenches of tho hut. Tho .nasty grasses
upon which ho lay exuded tho effluvia of
sweaty bodies, of decayed animal matter
and of offal.
But worse was yet to como. He had
Iain In tho uncomfortable position In which
they had thrown him for but a few min
utes when ho became distinctly conscious
of an acute Itching sensation upon his
hands, his neck nnd scalp. Ho wriggled to
a sitting posture, horrified and disgusted.
Tho Itching rapidly oxtended to other parts
of his body It was torture and his hands
wcro bound securely at his back I
Ho tugged and pulled at his bonds until
ho wns exhausted ; but not ontlroly with
out hope, for ho was sure that ho was work
ing enough slack out of tho knot to permit
eventually of his withdrawing ono of his
hands.
Night came. They brought him nolth'r
food nor drink. Ho wondered if they ex
pected him to llvo on nothing for a year.
The bites of tho vermin grow less annoy
ing, though no less numerous. Tho Hon
Morison haw a ray of hope In this indica
tion of ftituro Immunity through Inocula
tion. IIo still worked weakly a his bonds.
And then tho rats came. If the vermin
wcro disgusting, the rats were terrifying.
They scurried over his body, squealing and
fighting. Finally one commenced to chew
at one of his ears.
With an oath, tho Hon. Morison struggled
to q sitting posture. Tho rats retreated.
Ho woiked his legs beneath him nnd camo
to his knees, and then, by superhuman
effort, roso to his feet. Thcro he stood,
reeling drunkenly, drlpplnjr with cold
sweat.

iWould the plays help us more if they were written by Bacon or Tom Green, or

Let us take Shnkpsnenrn nnd read his works for what they are worth. I hey

THE FROG'S AIRSHIPS
By Farmer Smith
One morning early Jack Fros woke up
Jill Frog by kicking her In the ribs.
"I say there," he said, "why wouldn't
It be a good Idea for us to have airships?
.1 saw the Lady Bug flying nround on a
butterfly, and I thought we might be able
to get hold of something that would carry
us up In the hky."
"Suro enough," said Jill Frog. "I tell
you that we are not going to have an easy
time getting anything that. will hold big
peoplo like us. The Lady Bug Is very light
and Bho can fly nround on a butterfly very
tasy "
"Why wouldn't it do to see If we can't
get hold of somo bats?" said Jack.
They only fly at night." said Jill.
"That Is all right," said Jack, "because
we could get fireflies and glow worms so
that we would not run Into each other.
"What will we do about little Willie
Treetoad?" said Jill.
"Let's run over "and tell him about It.
and see If we can't get three bats, and
that will make It air the more fun when
our three airships go sailing around in
the sky. I am getting so I like little Willie
Treetoad," said Jack.
So am I." said Jill.; "I tell you we will
have to look out for him because with
those little suckers on the bottom of his
feet he can stick on a bat much easier
than we can. I think we had better put
on our rompers."
"Come on, then, and let's go over and
see little Willie Treetoad and tell him
about the bats."
So the Frogs hopped over to see little
Willie Treetoad as fast as they could.
The Boy Who Ran Away

One day a boy said to hjs brother, "Let
ub run away Into the woods and live there."
That night the two boys ran away. In the
morning they built a log cabin and later
they went out to hunt. Soon they caught
a Bqulrrel and after that went fishing,
When night came on, the boys were so
tired that they did not eat anything.
In the middle of the night a bear came
wandering around. One of the boys heard
the bear and woke the other boy up from
Ids good sleep. When the boy heard what
his brother said, he jumped out of bed,
The two boys ran very fast, but the bear
soon caught up with them, and the boys
screamed. Just then, their mother came
up and said, "What Js the matter with you

"God !" ho muttered "What have I done
to desene "
Hn paused. Whnt had he done? He
thought of tho girl In another tent in that
nccursed village. Ho v. as getting his
deserts. Ho set his Jaws firmly with tho
realization. Ho would never complain
again.
At that momont ho became awnro of
voices rnlsed angrily In the goatskin tent
close beside tho hut ln which ho lay. One
of them was a woman's. Could It be
Modern's? The language was probably
Arabic hn could not understand a word of
It! but tho tones wero hers.
Ho tried to think of some wny nf at
tracting her attention to his near presence.
If sho could removo his bonds they might
cscapo together it sho wished to escape.
That thought bothered him. He wns not
suro of hor status In the village It she
wern tho potted child of the powerful shclk,
then Bho probably would not care to escape
Ho must know definitely.
At tho bungalow ho had often heard
Merlem sing "God Save the King" as My
Dear accompanied her on tho piano. Rais
ing his voice, ho now hummed tho tune.
Immediately ho heard Merlem's volco from
tho tent. Sho spoke rapidly.
"Good-by, Morison." she cried. "If God
la n-nnrl T alinlllm l1nil before mOmltlff,
for It I still llvo I shall bo worso than dead
after tonight."
Then ho heard an angry cxcfsmatlon In
a man's voice, followed by tho sounds of a
nn,inin tinvnns iwni white with horror.
Ho struggled frantlcnlly again with his
bonds. They wero giving.
Amoment later ono hand was frco. It
was but tho work of an Instant then to
looso tho other. Stooping, ho untied the
ropo fiom his ankles; then ho stralghtoncd
and started for tho hut doorway, bent on
reaching Modem's side.
As ho stepped out Into tho night, the
flguro of a hugo black rose and barred
his progress.
When speed was requlrod Korak de
pended upon no other muscles than his
own, and so It was that tho moment
Tantor had landed him safely upon tho
nm i,in nf tho river as lay the village of
tho sheik, tho apeman deserted his bulky
comrado and took to the trees in a rapid
race toward the south and tho spot where
tho Swcdo had told him Merlem might bo.
It was dark when he camo to tho
palisade, strengthened considerably since
the day that ho had rescued Merlem from
her pitiful lifo within Its cruel confines.
No longer did the giant tree spread Its
branches nbovo tho wooden rampart; but
ordinary man-made- defenses wcro scarce
considered obstacles by Korak,
Loosening tho rope at his waist, he
tnuon.i thn nnoso over ono of the sharp
ened posts that composed tho palisade. A
moment later his eyes wero above tho level
of tho obstacle, taking In all within their
rnngo beyond. There was no ono In sight
close by. and Korak drew himself to the
top nnd dropped lightly to the ground
within tho inclosure.
Then he commenced his stealthy Bearch
of tho Village. First toward the Arab tents
ho made his way, snllllng and listening. He
passed behind them, searching for some
sign of Merlem. Not even the wild Arab
curs heard his passage, so silently he went
a shadow passing through shadows.
The odor of tobacco told him that the
Arabs were smoking before their tents. The
Bound of laughter fell upon his ears, and
then from the opposite sldo of tho village
came the notes of a once-famlllar tune,
"God Savo the King."
Korak halted ln perplexity. Who might
it be? Tho tones wero those of a man. He
recalled the young Englishman he had left
on the river trail and who had disappeared
before ho returned.
A moment later there came to him a
woman's voice In reply It was Merlem's I
The Killer, quickened Into action, slunk
rapidly in the direction of these two voices.

versity is providing n course of lectures and
clinics on diseases OI cniiaren lor mo
physicians In a group of six towns The
Instruction gives a locturo and clinic In
Wilson every Thursday for the 17 weeks.
Five other towns tako the other Ave days lu
the week. Doctor Hill, of Boston, has been
engaged to glvo the courso.
Tho physicians who take tho work pay
tho expenses of tho course. Perhaps some
day tho peoplo will see that It Is to their

Early risers living In Olenmore and
Gray's avenues between 68d and B(th
streets went unwashed to their places of
business today. Itathroom and kitchen
spigots yielded no water, and telephone
cnlls to the 65th street and Woodland,
avenue police station obtained no explana
tion of the drought.
Investigation traced the cause of the
water famine to a break In a six-Inch
main In Urny's avenue near 62d street.
There are no houses In this block, and
the sloping ground caused the outflow
to back up In the street rurther west.
A steady stream continued to Inoreate the
depth of this overflow until both Gray's
and Glenmore nvenues became Impassable
to pedestrians.
Householders seeking water for domestic;
purposes wcro obliged to carry pitchers or
buckets to a building operation on BUh
street below Woodland avenue, or to de
pond upon the generosity of friends living
south of the Philadelphia, Baltimore &
Washington Itallrond tracks.

By Edgar Rice Burroughs
IT IS a new Burroughs "wonder" story
and a fitting sequel to "Under the
Moons of Mars." Captain John Carter,
the hero of the previous story, is suddenly
transported to the planet Mars for the
second time. What he sees there
and the exciting incidents through
which he passes are vividly told
by Burroughs in this new romance.
Like all other Burroughs
stories, its swiftly moving scenes,
vigorously drawn pictures of
weird monsters and the many
terrific battles in which
Carter participates will hold
you with wonder and amaze
ment from beginning to end.
