Thorls, Prlnceaa of Helium, he had been

Suddenly his friend received a telea-ram

Init of hie wakenlna from death and trans

When Carter land on Mar he finds him

trees. Suddenly he hears a weird sound,
and rushlnn to Ihe edno of the cliff sees the
slant plant men attacking n small bond of

killed by tho wicked talons and powerful
tails of the strange creatures. This one

rlnthlan passages.
Just as the three are about to rench safety

all the Hods of Mars. The girl Is ordered
to remain, but Carter Is returning to prison
with Xndir, who has been disgraced bo
causo Carter had conauered htm
rilAPTnil X (Continued),
I HAD no lovo for Xodar, hut I ennnot
stand tho sight of cowardly Injustice nnd
persecution without seeing red as through
a haze of bloody mist, nnd doing things on
the Impulse of the moment that I presume
t never Khould do nfter mnturo deliberntton.
I wan standing close to Xodar ns Thurld
Bwung his foot for tho cowardly kick. The
degraded dator stood erect and motionless
as n carven Image. lie was prepared to
take whatever his former comrades had to
offer In the wny of Insults nnd reproaches,
and take them In manly silence nnd stoi
cism. Hut ns Thurld's foot swung, so did nilno,
and I caught him a painful blow Upon the
ihlnbono that saved Xodnr from this added
Ignominy.
For a moment there was tense silence;
then Thurld, with n ronr of rage, sprang
for my throat. Just ns Xodar had upon the
deck of the cruiser. The results were Iden
tical. I ducked beneath his outstretched
arms, and as he lunged past me planted a
terrific right on tho aldo of his Jaw.
The big follow spun round llko a top, his
knees gave beneath him, and ho crumpled
to the ground nt my feet.
The blacks gazed In nstonlshment, first
at tho still form of the proud dator lying
thero In the ruby dust of tho pathway, then
at me as though they could not believe thnt
such a thing could be.
"You nsked me to bind Thurld !" I cried.
"Behold I" And then I stooped beside the
prostrato form, tore the harness from" It,
and bound tho fellow's arms and legs
securely.
"As, you have dono to Xodar, now do
you likewise to Thurld. Take him before
Issus, bound In his own harness, that she
may see with her own eyes that thero bo
one among 'you now who Is greater than
.the First Dorn."
f M
''Who nre you" whispered tho woman
who had first suggested that I attempt to
bind Thurld.
"I nm a citizen of two worlds Captain
John Carter, of Virginia, Mnce. of tho
House of Tnrdos Mors, Jeddak of Helium.
Take this man to your goddess, na 1 hnve
said, and tell her, too, that as t have done
to Xodar and Thurld, so also can I do
to the mightiest of her dators. With naked
hands, with longsword, or with short
sword, I challenge tho flower of her fight
Ing men to combat,"
"Come," said the officer who was guard
ing me back to Bhadori "my orders are
Imperative ! there Is to be no delay, Xodar,
como you also."
There wns little of disrespect In the tone
thnt the mnn used In addressing cither
Xodar or myself, It wbb evident that ho
felt less contempt for the former dator slnco
he had witnessed the ense with which I
disposed of the powerful Thurld.
That his rqspect for me wbb greater
than It should hnve been for a slavo wns
quite appnrcnt from tho fact thnt during
the remainder of the return Journey ha
walked or stood always behind me, n drawn
short sword In his hand.
The return to tho :5ea of Omenn was un
eventful. We dropped down tho awful nhnft
In the same car that had brought us to
the surfuce. Thero we entered the sub
mnrlne, tnklng the long dlvo to the tun
nel far beneath tho upper world. Then
through the tunnel, nnd up ngnln to the
pool from which wo had had our first In
troduction to the wonderful passageway
from Omenn to the Temple of Issus.
From the Island of the submarine wo
wero trnnsportcd on a smnll cruiser to the
dlstnnt Isle of Shador. Here we found
a smnll Btoue prison nnd a guard of half
n dozen blacks. Thero was no ceremony
wasted In completing our Incarceration.
Ono of the blacks opened the door of the
prison with a huge key; we wnlked In, the
door closed bohlnd us, tho lock grated, and
with the sound there swopt over mo ngnln
thnt terrible feeling of hopelessness that I
had felt In the chnmbcr of mystery In the
golden cliffs beneath the gardens of the holy
thorns.
Thon Tars TarkaH had been with me, but
now I wns utterly nlono In so fnr ns friendly
companionship wns concerned. I fell to
wondering nbout tho fnte of tho great
Thnrk nnd of his beautiful companion, tho
girl, Thuvla. liven should they by some
miracle havo escaped nnd been received nnd
spared by a friendly nntlon, what hope had
I of tho succor which I knew they would
gladly extend if It lay In their power?
Thoy could not guess my whereabouts or
my fnte, for none on all Barsoom dreamed
of such a place ns this. Nor would It have
advantaged mo nny had they known the
exact location of my prison, for who could
hope to penetrate to this burled sea In the
face of tho mighty navy of tho First Born?
No, my case was hopelesB.
Well, I would make tho best of It, and,
rising, I swept aside the brooding despair
that had been endeavoring to claim me.
With tho Idea of exploring my prison, I
started to look around,
Xodar sat with bowed head upon a low
stone bench nenr the centre of the room In
which we were. Ho had not spoken since
Issus had degraded him.
The building was roofless, the walls rising
to a height of about 30 feet. Halfway up
wero a couple of small, heavily barred win
dows. The prison was divided Into soveral
rooms by partitions 20 feet high. Thero was
no ono In tho room which wo occupied, but
two doors which led to other rooms were
open. . . .
I entered ono of these rooms, but found
It vacant. Thus I continued through sev
eral of the chambers until, In the last one,
I found a young red Martian boy sleeping
upon tho stono bench which constituted the
only furniture of any of tho prison cells.
Evidently he was the only other prisoner.
As ho slept I leaned over nnd looked at
him. There was something strangely fa
miliar nbout his face, and yet I could not
ptaco him.
His features wero very regular nnd, like
the proportions of his graceful limbs and
body, beautiful In the extreme. Ho wns
very light In color for a red man, but In
other respects he seemed a typlcnl specimen
of this handsome rnce.
I did not nwnken him, for sleep In prison
fa such a priceless boon thnt I havo seen
men transformed Into rnglng brutes when
robbed by ono of their fellow prisoners of n
few priceless moments of It,
Hcturnlng to my own cell', I found Xodar
still sitting In the same position In which
I had loft him,
"Mnn," I cried, "It will prollt you nothing
to mope thus, tt wero no disgrace to bo
bested by John Carter. You hnve seen that
In the case with which I accounted for
Thurld, You knew It before when, on the
cruiser's deck, you saw me ruthlessly slay
three of your comrades."
"I would that you had dispatched me
at tho samo time," he said.
"Come, como!" I cried. "Thore Is hope
yet, Neither of us Is dend. We nre great
fighters. Why not win to freedom?"
He looked nt mo In amazement.
"You know not of whnt you spenk,"
ho replied. "Issus Is omnipotent. Issus
Is omniscient. She hears now tho words
you spenk. She knows tho thoughts you
think. It Is sncrllcge oven to dream of
breaking her commands."
"Itot, Xodar!" I cttclnlmcd Impatiently.
Ho sprang to his feet In horror.
"Tho curso of Issus will fnll upon you !"
he cried. "In nnother Instant you will
bo smitten down, writhing to your death
In horrible ngony,"
"Do you believe thnt, Xodnr7" I nsked.
"Of course; who would daro doubt?"
"I doubt; yes, nnd further, I deny," I
said. "Why, Xodnr, you tell me thnt sho
oven knows my thoughts. The red men
hnve nil had that power for nges nnd
nnother wonderful power, They can shut
their minds so thnt none mny rend their
thoughts. I lenrned tho first secret years
ago; tho other I never had to learn, since
upon all Barsoom Is none who can rend
whnt passes In the secret chambers of my
brain.
"Your goddess ennnot rend my thoughts,
nor can she read yours when you arc out
of her sight unless you will It. Had she
been nblo to read mine I am afraid that
her prldo would have suffered a rather
severe shock when I turned nt her com
mand to 'gnze upon the holy vision ot
her rndlnnt face.' "
"What do you menn7" ho whispered In
an affrighted voice, so low thnt I could
scarcely henr him.
"I monri thnt I thought her the most re
pulsive and vilely hideous creature my eyes
ever had rested upon,
For n moment he eyed mo In horror
stricken nmnzement, and then, with a cry
of "Blasphemer!" ho sprang upon me.
I did not wish to strike him ngaln; nor
was It necessary, since ho wns unarmed
and, therefore, milte harmless to me.
As ho came I grasped his left wrist with
my left hand and, swinging my right nrm
nbovo his left shoulder, caught him be
neath the chin with my elbow, and bore
him bnckw.ml across my thigh.
Thero he hung helpless for n moment,
glnring up nt me In Impotent rage.
"Xodnr," I said, "let us be friends. For
n yenr, possibly, wo may bo forced to live
together In the narrow confines of this tiny
room. I am sorry to have offended you.
but I could not dream thnt ono who had
suffered from the cruel Injustice of Issus
still could believe her divine.
"I will say n few more words, Xodnr,
with no Intent to wound your feelings fur
ther, but rather that you mny give thought
to the fact thnt whllo we llvo we nro still
more tho nrbiters of our own fate than la
any god.
"Issus, you sec, has not struck me dead,
nor Is she rescuing her faithful Xodar from

MOTHER'S ANGEL CHILD
You must not think I forget you when I leave out "Dear Children." I like
to be different, once- in a while. I think the reason that school teachers and
children's editors like to talk about themselves so much is because they are
with children so much and children love to talk about themselves-and I donot
"""-The other day I had the pleasure of delivering a lecture (or merely talking)
ot the largest school in one of the largest cities in the United States.
A teacher thero had her hand on a boy'a head. She called him "Angel
Child." , . , ,,
It was then tho principal of the school said:
"EVERY BOY IS AN ANGEL CHILD TO HIS MOTHER."
Isn't that a wonderful thought?
No matter what happens to a boy, ho is always the same sweet angel
child" to his mother he was when she used to put on his little nightie and hear
Wm Hoymay LTTtaw ho hits the gutter, but SHE. the one

Let us all remember, we are all loved by somebody and we are "Angel

JIMMY MONKEY AND THE WHALE
By Farmer Smith
Mister Elephant camo down tho main
street of Jungletown very happy In his
mind. Right in front of him he spied
Jimmy Monkey, with a tin can.
"What havo you there?" he asked of
Jimmy,
"A whale," answered Jimmy.
"How can you have a whale In a tin
can?" asked Mister Elephant.
"He's a he's a baby whale," answered
Jimmy, "It's all tho way you look at
things. In a hundred years he'll be a nice
lnrge-slzed respectablo whale. You musr
not Judge things by their size."
"I see," answered Mister Elephant "Are
you going to keep him a hundred years?"
"No, not quite," replied Jimmy, peeking
In the tin can. "Did you over see a baby
whale?"
"Not yet."
"Well, I'll climb the bamboo tree ana
you can squint at mine," and up the tree
went Jimmy.
Mister Elephant poked his beady "eye
Into the top of the tin can. Then he jumped
The whale, as Jimmy called It, wiggled Its
tail and splashed some water In Mister
Elephant's eye.
"Don't be afraid; he won-'t hurt you,"
said Jimmy, reassuringly.

tho clutches of her unbeliever who defamed
her fair beauty. No, Xodnr; your Issus
Is a mortal old woman. Once out of her
clutches, and she ennnot hnrm you.
"With your knowlodgo of this strange
land, two such fighting men ns you nnd 1
should bo able to win our wny to free
dom. Even though we died In tho nttempt,
would not our memories bo fairer than ns
though we remained In servile fear to be
butchered by n cruel nnd unjust tyrant
evil her goddest or mortal, as vnu will?"
Ah I finished I raised Xodnr to his feet
nnd released him. Ho did not renew the
attack upon mo. nor did he speak. In
stead, he walked toward tho bench nnd,
Hlnklng down upon It, remained lost In
deep thought for hours.
A long tlmo afterward I heard a soft
Round nt the doorway -"leading to one of
the other npartments, nnd, looking up, be
held tho red Martian youth gailng Intently
nt us.
"Knor!" I cried, after tho red Martian
manner of greeting.
"Knor." ho replied. "Whnt do you here?"
"I await my death, I prosume," I replied
with a wry smile.
He, too, smiled a brnve and winning
smile.
"I, nlFo," ho said. "Mine will come soon.
I looked upon the radiant beauty of Irsus
nearly a yenr since. It has always been
n sourco of keen wonder to tne thnt 1 did
lint drop dend nt the first sight of that
hideous countenance.
"Hy my first ancestor! but never was
thero so grotesque n flguro in nil the uni
verse. That they shoi'ld call such a one
Goddess ot I.lfo Eternal. Goddess of Death,
Mother of the Nearer Moon nnd CO other
equally Impossible titles Is quite beyond
me."
"How came you here?" 1 asked.
"It Is very simple. I wns Hying a one
man air-scout fnr to the south when the
brilliant Idea occurred to mo that I should
llko to searrh for tho lost Sea of ICorus.
which tradition places nenr to the South
Polo I must have Inherited from my father
a wild lust for adventure, ns well as a hol
low where my bump of reverence should be.
"I had reached tho area of eternal Ice
when my port propeller Jammed, and I
dropped to the ground to mako repairs.
IWoro I knew It the air was black with
filers, and a hundred of these first-born
devils wero leaping to tho ground all
nbout me.
"With drawn swords they made for me.
but before I went down beneath them they
had tasted of the steel of my father's
Bword, and I had given such an account of
myself as I know would have pleased my
sire had he lived to witness It "
"Your father 8 dend 7" I asked.
"Ho died before tho shell broke to let me
step out Into a world thnt has been very
good to me. nut for the sorrow that I had
never the honor to know my .father, I hnve
been very happy. My only sorrow now Is
that my mother must moun, mo ns she lias
for ten long years mourned my father."
"Who was your father?" I asked.
He was nbout to reply when tho outer
door of our prlsor. opened and a burly
guard entered and ordered him to his own
quarters for the night, locking the door
after him as he passed through Into the
farther chamber.
"It la Issus' wish that you two bo con
fined In tho same room," said the guard
when he had returned to our cell.
"This cowardly slave of a slave Is to
servo you well," ho said to me. Indicating
Xodar with a wave of his hand. "If he
does not, you are to beat him Into sub
mission. It Is Issus' wish that you heap
upon him every Indignity nnd degradation
of which you can cpncelve."
With these words he left us.
Xodar sat still with his face burled In
his hands. I walked to his side nnd placed
my hand upon his shoulder.
"Xodar," I sala, "you have heard tho
commands of Issus, but you need not fear
that I shall attempt to put them Into execu
tion You are a brave man, Xodar. It la
your own affair If you wish to be perse,
cuted and humiliated; but were I you I
should assert my manhood and defy my
enemies."
"I have been thinking very hnrd, John
Carter," he said, "of all the new Ideas you
gave me a few hours since. Little by llttlo,
I have been piecing together the things
that you said which Bounded blasphemous
to me then with the things that I have seen
In my past life and dared not even think
about for fear of bringing down upon me
.the wrath of Issus.
"I believe now that she is a fraud, no
more divine than you or I. More I am
witling to concede. And that the First Dorn

Rryn Mawr last year, has been stumping
the country In tho Interests of Zionism
since her graduation. Sttltrnge nnd Zionism
tours havo made of her one of the hcit
women spenltcrs In the country. MIsm
Ilrandcls was ono of the sturdy women to
. II. I .1.- ,-,!.!..., . Diiff.nita tinnirln nn
tho Wednesday of Republican and Pro
gressive convention ,eek, In the nccr-to-be-forgotten
rain that kept most of the
delegates to the cnmentlon In their hotels.
At tho Young Men's Hebrew Association
Inst night MM Ilrandcls cilled the young
men nnd women of Philadelphia to the Zion
ist colors.
"Zionism alms tn prcsnrve the Identity of
the .Tcwr," snld Miss tlrandols. "With a
centre of Judaism nt Palestine, where Jew
Ish nrt, literature nnd music will be nble to
doveiop, where n unified lnngunge will be
used, the Jew nil over the world will know
that the Jews nt a nation are preserving
their Individuality "
Miss HrnndelB sketched nn outline of the
work dono by the Zionist movement nnd Its
dcelopment. The back-to-thc-lnnd move
ment tho first since th earliest days of
Judaism bns proved a success In Palestine,
she said. "Tho colonists, by means of their
handicraft and vineyards, have made them
selves self-supporting nnd the nrt school, the
llcrnllel. hns mnilo Its Inlluonce felt the
world over," the fpeaker asserted.
"Thero havo been nrtlsfj of Jewish birth,
but thero never has been a Jewish art,"
Miss Ilrandcls said. "Hut at Palestine It Is
slowly developing. Eventually we hope
there will be a Jewish art as definite and
ns Individual as the nrt o( nny other na
tion. "Jinny Jews tho world over wilt prefer
to stny In tho country In which they arc now
living," Miss Brnndels added. "But to know
that somewhere thero Is a nation of Jewish
people, that there Is a centre of pure Jewish
culture, will keep tho Jew from bslng as
similated and thereby losing his Identity."
That tho Jew today Is in dnnger of losing
his Identity In the many countries In which
ho Is scattered was the contention of Miss
Hrandels and the other speakers. To pre
serve his Judaism, to olfor him, If he de
sires, the opportunity to get a Jewish edu
cation, to have a centre In which the lan
guage of the peoplo Is Hebrew In short, to
mako a nationality ot a nation, Is the ob
ject of the Zionists of all countries, tho nu
dlence wns told by this youthful exponent.
Miss Brnndels will also spenk nt the
luncheon to be given on 'Monday by the
Hadassah, an organization of Jewish women
numbering nbout 1&00,

"Like all good house'
keepers," says Mrs, Happy
Homemaker, "1 believe in
keeping accounts not s
much to keep track of the
money I have spent, but to
apportion most wisely the
money I'm going to spend,"
"What I term 'operating' expenses have been most troublesome, for
they have steadily increased in spite of my efforts toward economy."
"But I am anticipating that the new low rates for Electricity will go far
toward cutting down that 'operating' item. For it does seem to me that if
our men-folks insist upon Electricity for reasons of efficiency and e'eonomy .
in their business, there must be something in it for us who take pride in,
our housekeeping."
"I don't know what a kilowatt of Electricity will do or what it will cpst,
but I'm going to find out that much won't cost anything. There certainly
mustbea good reason why people won't buy or rent houses nowadays
unless equipped for Electricity, so I'll make a short cut and inquire,"
You can do as Mrs. Happy Homemaker intends doing
all that is necessary is to mail a request for complete in
formationregarding the wiring of already-built houses to
