"Think, John Cniter, of tho countless billions of llnrsoomlans who have tnkeii the Voluntary pllgrlmngo down Ill's cruel river since the bcglnlng of time, only to fall Into tho ferocious clutches ot the, terrible crea tures that today nssnlled us. "There In nil nnclent legend that once n red man returned from the luniks of tho Lost Sea of Korus, returned from tho Val ley Dor, back through the mysterious R'ver Iss. The legend has It that he narrated a fearful blasphemy of horrid brutes that Inhabited a valley ot wondrous loveliness, brutes that pounced upon each Uarsoomlan nn ho terminated his pIlRrlmngc nnd de voured him upon the banks of tho Lost Sea, where ho hnd looked to Hnd love nnd peaco nnd happiness. "Hut the nnclcnts killed the blasphemer, as tradition has ordained that any shall be killed who return from tho bosom ot the River of Mystery. "Rut now we know that It was no blas phemy, that tho legend Is n true one, nnd that tho man told only ot whnt ho saw. What does It profit us, John Carter, since even shout.l we escape we also would bo treated ns blasphemers? Wo nre between tho wild thoat of crtnlnty nnd the mad zltldar of fnct. Wo can escape neither." "As earth men say, we nre between the devil nnd the deep sea, Tnrs Tarkas," I replied; nor could I help but smile nt our dilemma. "Thero la nothing wo can do but tnko things ns they come, nnd nt least have the satisfaction ot knowing that whatovcr racu or horde slays us eventually will havo great numbers of dead to count. "White npo or plant man, green Har soomlnn or red man, whosoever It shall be that takes tho last toll from us. will know that it Is costly In lives to wipo out John. Cartor, prlnco of tho house ot Tardos Mors, nnd Tars Tarkus, Jcddalc of Thark, at tho same time." I could not help but laugh at his grim humor, and he Joined In with me In one ot those rare laughs ot real enjoyment which wns ono of the attributes of this fierce Tharklan chief which marked him from tho others of his kind. "Rut nbout yourself. John Carter," ho cried at last. "If you havo not been hero all these yearn, where Indeed havo you been, and how Is It that I ilnd you hero today?" "I havo been back to Karth," I replied. "For ten long earth years I have been praying and hoping for tho dny that would carry mo onco more to thlH grim old planet of yours, for which, with all Its cruel and terrible customs, I feel a bond of sympathy and lovo ovoii greater than for the world that gavo mo' birth. "For ten years I havo been enduring a living denth of uncertainty nnd doubt ns to whether Dejah Thorls lived. Now, for the first time In all these years, my prayers havo been answered nnd my doubt relieved. "Yet I 'find myself, through a cruel fate. In the-one tiny spot of nil Ilarsoom from which there is apparently no escape, and, if there Is, nt a price which wouldjmt out forever the last flickering hope which I may cling to of seeing my princess again. "Only n bare half-hour betoro I saw you battling with the plant men, I was standing in tho moonlight upon tho banks of ii broad river that taps tho eastern shore of Karth's most blessed land. I have answered you, my friend. Do you be lieve?" "I believe," replied Tars Tarkas, "though I cannot understand." As we talked I had been searching the Interior of tho chamber with my eyes. It was, perhaps, two hundred feet In length nnd hnlf as broad, with what appeared to ho a doorway In the centre of the wall di rectly opposite that through which wo had entered: Tho apartment was hewn from the ma terial of tho cliff, showing mostly dull gold In tho dim light which a single mluuto radium illuminator in the ccntro of the roof diffused throughout Us grent dimen sions. Hero and there polished surfaces of ruby, emerald and diamond patched the golden walls nnd celling. The floor wns of another material, very hard, and worn by much uso to the smooth ness ot glass. Asldo from tho two doors I could discern no sign of other aperture, and, as ono wo knew to bo locked, I ap proached the other. As I extended my hand to search for the controlling button, that cruel and mocking laugh rang out once moro, so close to me this tlmo that I Involuntarily shrank back, tightening my grip upon tho hilt of my great sword. And then from tho far comer nf ihn rri chamber a hollow voice chanted: "Thero Is no hope, thero Is no hope; the dead re turn not, tho dead return not ; nor Is there any resurrection. Hope not, for thero Is no hope." Though our eyes instantly turned toward the spot from which tho volco seemed to emanate, there was no one In sight, and I must ndmlt that cold shivers played along my splno nnd tho short hnlrs at tho base of my head stiffened nnd rose up, as do those upon a hound's neck when In the night his eyes see those uncanny things which aro hidden from the sight of man. Quickly I walked toward the mournful voice, but It had ceased ere I reached tho farther wall, and then from tho other end of tho chamber came another volco, shrill and piercing. "Fools! Fools!"-It shrieked. 'Think ye to defeat the eternal laws of life and death? Would cheat the mysterious Issus, goddess of death, of her iust dues? nirt nni h- mlghty messenger, the ancient Ibs. bear yo upon her leaden bosom nt your own behest to the Valley Dor? Think ye, O fools, that Issus will give up her own? Think ye to escape whence In all the countless ages but a single soul hast lied? "Go back the way yo came, to the merci ful maws of the children of the tree of llfo or the gleaming fangs of tho great white apes. Thero lies speedy surceaso from suffering-. Hut Insist In your rash purpose to thread tho golden cliffs of the Mountains of Otz. past the ramparts of tho Impregnable fortresses of the Holy Therns. und upon your way death In its most frightful form will overtake you a death bo horrible that even the Holy Therns themselves, who con. celved both life and death, avert their eyes from Its flendlshness and close their ears against the hideous shrieks of its victims. Go back, q fools, the way ye came!" And then the awful laugh broke out from another part of the chamber. "Most uncanny," I remarked, turning to Tars Tarkas. "What shall , we do?" he asked. "We cannot light empty air. I would almost rather return and face foes Into whose flesh I may feel my blade bite, and know that I am selling my life dearly, than go dowp to that oblivion whlc,h Is evidently the fairest and most desirable eternity that mortal man has the right to hope for." "If, as you say, we cannot tight empty air, Tars Tarkas," I replied, "neither, on the other hand, can empty air fight us. I shall not ije turned back by wind, who have faced and $"nq,vered In my time thousand of sinewy warriors and tempered blados; nor shall you. Thark." "Uut, ujisaen voices may emanate from uniMen. and unseeable matures who wield Invisible blades," answered the green war rior. -ilot. Tar Tarktu!" I cried. Those voices como from belngn ns ren! ns you or I. In their veins flows blood Hint may be let ns easily ns ours. The fact Hint they remain Invisible lo us Is tho bsst proof to my mind Hint they nro mortnl, nor overly courageous mortals nl that. Think you, Tnrs Tarkas that John Carter will lly nt the first shriek of a cowardly foo who dare not como out In the open nnd face a good blndc?" 1 hnd not long to wait, for presently there might ho no question Hint our would be terrorlzers would hear me, for I was tiring of this nervo-rncking farce. It had occurred lo me, loo, Hint the whole business was but n plan to frighten us back Into the valley of dentil from which we hnd escaped, thnt wo might be quickly disposed of by the snvnge creatures theie. For n long period there wns silence, then of a sudden a soft, stenlthy sound behind mo caused mo to turn suddenly to behold a grent, mnny-leggcd bnnth creeping sinu ously upon me. Tho bnnth Is n fierce benst of prey Hint roams the low hills surrounding the dead seas of ancient Mnrs. Like nearly nil Mnrllnn animals. It Is nlmost hairless, buy ing only n great brlstlv inane nbout Its llilrk neck. Its long, lltlt" body Is sup ported by ten powerful tegs; Its enormous j.iWR nre equipped, like those of the mint. or Mnrtlnn hniind with several rows nt long, needtollhn flings; Its mouth extends to a point far back nf Its tiny ears, while Iti enormous, protruding eyes nf green ndd tho Inst tnueh nf terror to Its nwful aspect. As It crept tmvitrit mo It lashed IN pow erful tall ngnlnst Its yellow sides, ond when It saw lh.it It wnn discovered It emitted the terrifying roar which often freer.es Its prey Into momentary paralysis In the In stant that It makes Its spring. And so It launched Its great bulk townrd me. but Its mighty volco had held no par alyzing terror for me. nnd It met cold steel Instend of the tender flesh Its cruel Jaws gaped so widely to engulf. An Inntnnt Inter I diew my blade from the still heart nf this great Bnrsonmlntt linn. nnd. turning townrd Tnrs Tnrkns. was surprised to seo him facing n similar monster. No sooner hnd he dlspntehed his than I. turning ns though drawn by tho Instinct of my guardian subconscious mind, beheld another of the savngo denzlns ot the Mnrtlnn wilds lenplng ncross tho chamber townrd me. From then on for the better pnrt of nn hour one hideous crenturo nfter another was launched upon us. springing npparently from the empty air nbout us. Tnrs Tnrkns was satisfied: here was something tangible thnt he could cut and slash with his great blnde. while I. for my part, mny say that the diversion wns a innrked Improvement over tho uncanny voices from unseen lips. That there was nothing supernatural nbout our new foes was well evidenced by their howls of rago nnd pain ns thny flt tho sharp steel at their vltnls. nnd the very real blood which flowed from their sovored nrtcrles ns they died the real death. I noticed during tho period ot this new persecution that tho beasts appeared only when our backs were turned. We never saw one renlly materialize from thin nlr, nor did I for nn Instnnt pulllclently lone my excellent reasoning faculties to be once deluded Into the belief that the beasts came Into tho room other than through some concealed nnd well-contrived door way. Among the ornaments of Tnrs Tnrlcns' leather harness, which Is the only manner of clothing worn by Martians other than capes ond robes of silk and fur for pro tection from the cold nfter dark, wns a small mirror, nbout tho bigness nf a lndy's hnndglass, which hung midway between his shoulders nnd his wnlst against his broad back. Once ns wo stood looking down nt n newly fallen antagonist, my eyes happened to fall upon this mirror, nnd In Its shiny surfaco I saw pictured a sight that caused mo to whisper: "Movo not, Tnrs Tarkas! Move not a muscle!" He did not nRk why, but stood like n graven Image, while my eyes watched tho strange thing that meant so much to us. What I saw was tho quick movement of a section of the wall behind me. It wns turning upon pivots, nnd with It a section of the floor directly In front of It wns turning. It was as though you placed a visiting caid upon end on a silver' dollar you had laid flat upon a table, so that the edge of tho card perfectly bisected the surfaco of tho coin. Tho card might represent tho section of tho wall that turned and tho silver dollar tho section of the floor. Hoth were so nicely fitted Into tho adjacent portions-of tho floor and wall that no crack had been noticeable In tho dim light of the chamber. (CONTINUED TOMORROW.) GARDEN QUERIES ANSWERED By JOHN BAIITRAM Mnkliin; Geraniums Stocky Kffle You can make your young gerani ums stocky by pinching out tho top shoots nnd some of the laterals n couple of times. This will retard blooming for a short time, but when the plant does bloom, the flow ers will be largo nnd more plentiful. Hardy Begonia I-, L. Tho Kvnnslana Is the hardy bego nia, t have never planted It, but from credible sources lenrn thnt It Is all that Is claimed In the catalogues. Puttliiff In Fruit Trees S. c T. t would not advise putllnr In nny dwarf or stnndnrd fruit trees nt this time. Wnlt till fnll : there will bo less haz ard then. You might. In case you care to pay the price, get some of tho pot-grown specimens of dwarf trees, but they are much wore costly than the dormant stock. They cm ho put Into tho ground with tho pot soil nbout their roots. Specimens cost about two dollars each. Dormant trees cost from ,10 to CO cents each from reliable growers. IMtims tn Plant Darby flood plums to have In your gar den would bo Abundance, Satstima, .Shim nnd Ilurbank. Hut seo nnswer nbovo as to planting ot this time. "Bugs" on Turnips I). C". S. You can control tho ravages or tno insects that nro spoiling your early turnips by sprinkling" with slug shot or Persian powder, Carrot for Main Crop Anslem Jones Oxhcnrt Iluerard Is a very good carrot for main crop. Summer Pruning of (trapes R W. It would be wise to trim oft the superabundant foliage of tho luxuriantly growing sorts. Cut thorn oft beyond tho fruit. Cut out the long nonfrultlng branches, but with discrimination. A Ilttlo wood ashes (lug In about the roots will bo on Improvement to tho soil. It Is always a good Idea to bag a certain pro portion of tho grapes about half, say. Planting Parsley S. D. F. It Is not too late to plant pars ley, but you must be careful to keep tho Feed bed well wntered. Tho seeds aro nmong tho slowest to germinate, so do not becomo discouraged at apparently slow re sults. Thin out the surplus plants when the bed has becomo established, Climbing Rose X. It. The best ycltow climber Is a de velopment of the Pcrslnn yollow, Tho flowers nre very beautiful nnd tho foliage Is attractive nil season. The Pink Dorothy Perkins wll do alt right on the' west side of your house. Train It to n lattice nnd do not prune severely In the winter wnen tho other roses aro cut. Honcysuckcrs C. F. Hall's Monthly Is n very good honeysuckle. It Is markedly fragrant nnd the plant Is hardy, needing no protection in winter. It clambers well over buildings. Celery C. F. O. Celery cai be ptnnletl flush with the ground In cone you uso somo of tho self-blnnchlng sorts. Tho usual method In lo plant it In tronches nbout two feet deep, nnd ns the plants grow to cover up with the dirt which has been banked along the trench. In doing this, tnko card not to let nny of the soli fnll on the centro of tho plant or tho "heart." Such nn accident almost Invariably means that tho plant will rot Instead of blanch properly for the win ter. It Is r. bit lato to put In nny ot tho summer celeries. It Is llkewlso early for the winter vnrletles. Re guided by tho an nouncement thnt theso arc on salo by the seedsmen either In town hero or In your neighborhood. Tho usual prleo Is about HO cents n hundred for plants. Flowers for Front of Porch W. D. F. For your space nnd situation, since tho latter Is Btinny, I would advise putting next tho porch a dozen of scarlet sage and In front of theso n dozen scarlet geraniums, Plant them nbout a foot apart each way.
