Instantly n ecoro of fangs and talons were sunk Into my flesh; cold, sucking lips fastened themselves upon my arteries I struggled to frco myself, and even though world of warriors loved best to speak. Dut even the two best swords In a world of fighters can avail not forever against overwhelming numbers of flerco nnd savage brutes, and so, step by step, we were forced back. At length we stood against tho giant trco that we had chosen for our ascent, and then, as charge after charge hurled Ita weight upon Us, we gavo back again and again Until we had been forced half-way round the huge base of tho colossal trunk. Tars Tarka8 was In the lead, and sud denly I heard a little cry of exultation from him. "Here Is shelter for one at least, John Carter," he said, nnd, glancing down, I saw an opening In the baso of the tree about three feet In diameter. "In with you, Tars Tarkast" I cried j but ho would not goj Baying that his bulk waa too great for the little aperture, white I might slip In easily. Together we wormed our wny along tho waving pathway. weighted down by those Immonso bodies, I succeedod In struggling to my feet, where, still grasping my long sword, and shorten ing my grip upon It until I could uso It as a dagger, I wrought such havoc among them that at one time I stood for an Instant free. What It has taken minutes to write oc curred In but a few seconds, but during that tlmo Tars Tarkaa had seen my plight and had dropped from the lower branches, which ho had reached with such tnflntto labor, and as I flung the last of my Imme diate antagonists from mo the great Thark leaped to my side, and again we fought, back to back, as we had done a hundred times before. ' Time nnd again tho ferocious apes sprang in to close with us, and time and again we beat them back wltluour swords. The great, tails of the plant men lashed, about us as' they charged from various directions or sprang with tho agility of greyhounds abovo our heads. But every attack met a gleaming blade In sword-hands that had been reputed for 20 years the best that Mars had over known: for Tars Tarkas and John Carter wero names that tho fighting men of this "We shall both dlo If we remain without, John Cartor. Hero Is a slight chance for one of us. Tako it, and you may live to avenge me. It is useless for mo to attempt to worm my way into so smalt an opening with this horde of demons besetting us on all sides" "Then wo shall die together, Tars Tar kas," I replied, "for I shall not eo first. Let mo defend tho opontng while you get in ; men my smaller stature will permit me to slip in with you before they can prevent." Wo still wore fighting furiously as wa talked In broken sentences, punctuated with vicious cuts and thrusts nt our swarming cnumy. At length ho yielded, for It seemed tho only way In which either of us might be saved from tho ever-increasing numbers of our assailants, who were still swarming upon us from all directions across the broad valley. -it was ever your way, John Carter," to think last of your own life," he said. "But still more your wny to command the lives and actions of others, evon to the greatest of Jeddaks who rule upon Barsoom."

JIMMY MONKEY'S SHADOW By Farmer Smith It was a warm day In Jungletown. Jimmy Monkey sat under the bamboo tree trying to keep cool. Every now and then ho would wiggle his tall and strange to relato! the shadow of his tall moved back and forth Just as the tall moved. "That's funny," said a mellow little voice beside Jimmy, Turning around, Jimmy could see no one, so he got up and looked behind the tree. "Hero I am," said the merry little mellow voice. "Right here. Oet down on the ground and you will find me gone." "Oh, I know-t Sou are my shadow and when I lie down on the ground you ara gone," said Jimmy, peeking around tho tree. "Oh, look " exclaimed Jimmy, looking right at the big fellow. At this Mister Elephant danced around o fast he almost fell down. "Look at what?" he, asked. "Look at your Bhadowl" shouted Jimmy Mister Elephant danced around again and said: "What'a the matter with It?" "Nothing. Only I wish I had a big shadow like yours," You can have mine I don't mind," an swered Mister Elephant. "Stretch out your tall and see If it makes a shadow longer than my tail," commanded Jimmy. At this Mister Elephant squinted down at Jimmy and said I "you can't make a monkey out of me I'm Jin Elephant." "That may be," answered Jimmy, thought fully, "but your shadow Isn't." A Tribute to a Rainbow The following extracts from two letters will explain themselves. Tha Rainbow who Is responsible for them Intended neither for publication. However, we decided that their helpfulness waa too deep to be wasted. Therefore what was meant for private eye Is unfolded to yout that you may read and learn. The first, from tha Rainbow, Harry Axson, of Colllngswood, K, J., reads: "I am pend ing you a letter from a near old lady friend of mine. Let ma tell you how I became ac quainted with her, On the 20th of May, during a large parade tn our town, I was standing on tha same corner with her and she wanted some Information, I gave her my guide book, and a friend of mine and myself found boxes, and from them we all watched the parade together. The letter Is In answer to one I wrote. Please send it back; I prize It most wonderfully," The second, from -"the dear bid lady"; "It certainly waa lovely of you to think of me. Did you take a picture) of me? Why, bow sweet I fear, Harry, I must look a little cross, aa tho sun was trying. I as sure you I felt very comfortable and happy because yeu and yau'r friend did everything to make me bo. Many boya of your ages would not have remained with a lady so much older. Your parents can be proud of you. Boys of your thoughtfulness cannot help but succeed. "The talent of success; Harry, Is really nothing more than dqlng what you can do well and doing well whatever you do, with out first a thought of fame. If It cornea It will be because It Is deserved. I love this helpful thought of Longfellow, so I pass it on to you." Things to Know and Do 1, Animals which have backbones are di vided Into four Classes, Mamtnals, birds, reptiles, fishes.

Which ess of the three take jha kW!St tf Wtf tf (d mft if to obey the dictates, of a creature of an other world of a man whoso stature was less than half his own. "If you fall, John Cnrter," he Bald, "know that tho cruel and heartless Thark to whom you taught tho meaning of friendship will come out to dlo beside you." "Ab y6u will, my friend," I replied. "But quickly now, head first, white I cover your retreat." Ho hesitated a illtlo at that word, for noter In his whole life of continual Btrlfo had he before turned hla back Upon aught than a dead or defeated enemy. "Hnste, Tars Tartfas," I urged, "or w Bhnll both go down to profitless defeat. I cannot hold them forever nlonc." As ,he dropped to the ground to force his wny Into tho tree, the whole howling pack of hideous dovlls hurled themselves upon me. To right and left llew my shim mering blade, now green with tho sticky Juice of a plant man, now red with the crimson blood of a great whlto ape. And thus I fought as I never had fought before, agntnst frightful odds that I can not realize even now. v With tho fenr that wa would escapo them, tho creatures redoubled their efforts to pull mo down, and though the ground about mo was piled high, with their dead and dying comrades, they succeeded at Inst In. overwhelming me; and I went down be neath them for the Becond time that day, nnd onco ngaln felt those nwful sucking lips ngntnst my flesh. But senrce had I fallen ero I felt power ful hands grip my nnklcs, and In another second I was being drawn within tho ulielter of the tree'B Interior. For a moment It was a tug of war be tween Tars Tnrkas nnd a great plant man who clung tcnnclously to my breast, but presently I got the point of my long sword beneath him, and with n mighty thrust pierced his vitnln. Bleeding from many wounds, I lay pant ing upon the ground within tho hollow of tho tree, while Tarn Tarkas defended tho opening from the furious mob without. Kor nn hour they howled about tho open In, but nftcr a few attempts to reach us they confined their efforts to terrorizing slulokB nnd screams; to horrid growling on tho part of tho great whlto apes and tho fearsomo and Indescribable purring by tho plant men. j At length alt but a score, who had appar ently been left to prevent our escape, hnil departed, and our adventuro seemed destined to result In n siege, tho only outcome of which could bo our death by starvation. For oven should we bo able to Blip out after dar'i, where. In that unknown and hostile valloy. could wo hopo to turn our Btepa toward possible escape? Ai tho nttneks of our enemies ceased nntl our eyes became accustomed to tho scml darkness of tho interior of our strango ro treat, I took tho opportunity to explore our The trco was hollow to nn extent of about fifty feet In diameter, nnd from Its Hat, hard floor I Judged that It had often been used to bouso others. As I raised my eyes toward Ita roof to note tho height, I saw far above mo a faint glow of light. There was nn opening above. If wo could but reach it, we might still hopo to mako tho Bholter of tho cliff caves. My eyes bad now become quite used to tho subdued light of the Interior, and as 1 pursued my Investigation I presently came upon a rough ladder at tho far side of the tree. Quickly I mounted It, to find that it connected nt tho top with tho lower of a scries of horizontal wooden bars that span ned the now narrower and shaftlike Interior of tho tree's stem. These bars wero set one above another, about three feet apart, and formed n perfect ladder as far abovo me as I could see. Dropping to tho floor onco more, I tie tailed my discovery to Tars Tarkas, who suggested that I explore aloft as far as I could go In safety, whllo ho guarded the entrance against a posslblo attack. As I hastened above to explore tho strange shaft, I fouhd that tho ladder of horizontal bars reached always far abovo mo as my eyes could reach, and as I as cended, the light from abovo grew brighter and brighter. For fully five hundred feet I continued to climb, until at length I reached tho open ing In the stem which admitted the light. It was of about tho samo diameter as tho ontranco at the foot of the tree, and opened directly upon a large, flat limb, tho well worn surface of which testified to Its long continued use as an avenue for some crea ture to nnd from this remarkable shaft. I did not venture out upon the limb for fear that I might bo discovered nnd our retreat In this direction cut off; Instead, I hurried to retrace my steps to Tars Tarkas. T Roon reached him. and presently wo were both ascending the long ladder to ward the opening above. Tars Tarkas went in advance, and ns I reached the first of the horizontal bars I drew tho ladder up after me, and, hand ing It to him, he carried It a hundred feet farther aloft, where he wedged It safely between one of the bars and the sldo of the shaft. In like manner I dislodged the lower bars aa I passed them, 80 that we Boon had tho Interior of tho tree denuded of all possible means of ascent for a dlstanco of n hundred feet from the base, thus precluding pos sible pursuit and attack from the rar. As we were to learn later, this precau tion Baved us from dire predicament, and waa eventually the means of our salvation. When we reached (the opening at the top Tars Tarkas drew to one side that I might pass out nnd Investigate, as, owing to my lesser weight and. greater agility, I was better fitted for tha perilous threading of this dizzy, hanging pathway. The limb upon which I found myself ascended at a alight angle toward the cliff, and as I followed It I found that It ter minated a few feet above n narrow ledge which protruded from the cliff's face at the entrance to a narrow cave. As I approached tha slightly moro slen der extremity of the branch It bent be neath my weight until, as I balanced peril ously upon Ita outer tip, It swayed gently on a level with the ledge at a distance of a couple of feet. Five hundred feet below me lay the vivid scarlet carpet of the valley; nearly five thousand feet above towered the mighty, gleaming face of the gorgeous cliffs. The cave that I faced was not one of those that I had seen from the ground, and which lay much higher, possibly a thousand feet. But so far as I might know, It was as good for our purpose as another, and so I returned to the tree for Tars Tarkas., Together, w wormed our way along the waving pathway, 'but when we reached the end of the branch we found that our com- SCHOOLS AND COLI.EOES Vn1iinf!(v Irictrnrrirm jg-for Business Teachers at Peirce Summer School P Courses begin July 3.

This wo did without mishap nnd soon found ourselves together upon the verge of ft dizzy little balcony, with a mngnlflcent View of the Valley spreading out below Us. So far ns tho eye could reach, gorgeous forest nnd erlmion swafd skirted a silent sea, nnd about all lowered the brilliant mon ster gunrdlnn Cliffs.

Knowing that attack from the tree was now Improbable, wo determined to exploro tho cave, which wo had every reason to believe was but n continuation of tho path we had already traversed, leading tho gods knew where, but clearly away from this alley of ferocity As wo advanced wo found a well-proportioned tunnel cut from tho solid cliff. Its walls rose some 20 feet abovo the floor, which was about flvo feet in width. The roof was arched.

It seemed moro like a partition than a sudden ending of tho cave, for It wns con structed not of tho material of the cliff, but of something which felt llko very hard wood. Silently I groped over Its surface with my hands, nnd nrcsontly wns rewarded by (the feel of tho button, which ns commonly denotes a aoor on Mars as does a door knob on Earth. Oently pressing It, I had tho satisfaction of feeling tho door Blowly glvo betoro me, and In another instant wo were looking into a dimly lighted apartment which, so far as wo could seo, was unoccupied.
