THEUD could bo but one explanation.
They were being pursued by another hos
tile fleet Well, the situation could be no
Worse, The expedition already wn.8
doomed.
No man that had embarked upon It
would return across that dreary Icecap.
How I wished that I mlRht face Znt Arrns
With my lonesword for lust an Instant be

our failure.
As I watched the oncoming ten I Baw
their pursuers race swiftly Into sight. It
wns another great fleet', for a moment I
could not bellovo my eyes: but Anally I
was forced to ndmlt that tho most fatal
calamity had overtaken tho expedition, for
the fleet I saw was nono other than the
fleet of the Flret Born that should have
been so safely bottled tip In Omoan.
"What a-serlor of misfortunes and disas

that I should havo'been so terribly thwarted
at every nrtfilo of my search for my lost
lovol Could It bo possible that the cursa of
Issus waB upon met That thoro was In

carcass! . . . ,
I would not bellovo tt, and, throwing back
my shoulders, I ran to tho deck below to
loin my men In repelling boarders from ono
of tho them craft that had grappled us
broadside In the wild lust of hand-to-hand
combat my old hopefulness returned. And ns

Inspirited them that they fell upon tho luck
less whites with such ferocity that within
a few moments wo had turned the tables
upon them, and a second later, as wo
swarmed tholr own decks, I had the satis
faction of seeing their commander take tho
long leap from tho bows of his vessel in
token of surrender nnd defeat.
Then I joined Kanton Knn Ho had been
watching what had tnken placo on the deck

order to one of his oillccrs, and presently
tho colors of tho Prlnco of Helium broke
from every point of tho flagship
A great cheer aroso from tho men of our
own ship, a cheer that was takon up by
every othor vessel of our expedition as

Then Kanto-J Kan sprung his coup. A
signal leglblo to every sailor of all tho

A STREET CAR AND AN ELEPHANT
Not many years ago the streets were harmless, amiable pathways. To keep
one's body safo it was only necessary to come in when it rained, to look out
for the Indians and wild beasts behind the bushes and things like that.
Now thero are n thousand perils in every direction. We have so many
machines, so many swift-moving vehicles, such high speeds and so much heavier
traffic in general that it becomes positively necessary to keep our MINDS ever
on tho WATCH for DANGER.
In order to watch danger we must be able to recognize it.
If you saw an ELEPHANT, one three timeB as tall ns you are, coming
down a city street, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
' You would bade away ns far as you could and give Mr. Elephant every bit
of room ho could possibly want.
A STREET GAR is far more deadly than an ELEPHANT. Why is it then
that we do not fear the STREET CAR?
Because the STREET CAR is familiar. We see it every day and wo do not
recognize the danger in everyday things.
In whnt other things that you see every day can you discover danger?
Do not forget that wo aro working hand in hand. Wc want your opinions,

Little Tulip Heart Meets Prince
Marmolade
Dy Farmer Smith
It was whllo out playing Little Tulip
Heart came to a field of red daisies. While
walking through this field she happened to
look up. As she looked up she saw a beau
tiful cloud In tho aky. It looked like a
great pearl, gleaming and sparkling with a
thousand Jeweled lights.
The poarl cloud was coming gently down,
and as It camo nearer Tulip Heart saw on
tt a beautiful young prince. He was stand
ing right In the centra of the cloud, with a
sold staff In his hand. As he moed the
I gold staff backward or forward the cloud
rose or fell.
' The cloud came down to the ground right
beside little Tulip Heart, and the beautiful
prince got off. Tulip Heart clapped her
hand i with delight, he looked so nice and
good. And ho was the good Prince Marmo
lade of Cloudland, which Is the next country
to Candyland and Toyland. Santa Claus
was hla uncle.
"Tulip Heart." said Prince Marmolade.
"will you bo my little prlnces3 and como
with me, to Cloudland?"
"O! I would love to," said Tulip Heart,
"but I will have to ask Granny arump."
Prince Marmolade helped her up on his
cloud and gave her a pearl chair to sit on.
Then, almost before she knew It. the cloud
had dropped down beside old Granny

For a moment I could not tell whether

ho stood hesitating, and then throwing

Thus went Zat Arras, Jed of Zodanga,

caiiso of my ten shirs' retreat from tho
mouth of tho shaft. It seemed that when
they had como upon tho shaft tho navy
of tho First Born wero already Issuing
from Its mouth.
Fully 20 vessels had emerged, and
though they gave battlo Immediately In
nn ertort to stem tho tide that rolled from
tho black pit, the odds ngnlnst them wero
too great nnd they wore forced to flee
With great caution we approached the
shaft under cover of darkness, At a dls
tanco of several miles I caused tho fleet
to bo halted nnd from there Cnrthorls
went nhend alono upon a, ono-man filer to
reconnolter.
In perhaps hntt an hour he returned to
report that thero "is no sign of a patrol
boat or of the enemy In nny form, nnd so
wo moved swiftly nnd noiselessly forward
onco more toward Omcan.
At the mouth of the shaft wo slopped
again for a moment for nil tho vessels to
reach their previously appointed stations,
then with the flagship I dropped quickly
Into tho black depths, whllo one by" ono tho
other vessels followed mo In quick succes
sion. Wo hnd decided to stnko all on tho
chnnco that wo would be nfiToto reach the
temple by the subterranean way, and so we
left no guard of vessels at tho shaft's mouth.
Nor would It have profited us an? to havo
done bo, for o did not havo sufficient force
all told to have withstood the nst"navy of
the First Born hnd they returned to en
gage us.
For tho safety of our entranoo upon
Omonn wo depended largely upon tho very
boldlltfs of It, believing thnt It would bo
somo little tlmo bete re tho First Born on
guard there would irallza that it wns an
enemy and not their own returning fleet
that was entering the vault of tho burled
sen.
And such proved to be tho case. In fact,
400 of my fleet of GOO rostod safely upon tho
bo"om of Omean beforo a hot was fired.
Tho battlo wns short nnd hot, but thero
could hnvo been but ono outcome, for the
First Bom In tho carelessness of fancied
(ccurlty had left but a Handful of ancient
and obsolete hulks to guard tholr mighty
harbor.
It was at Carthorls suggestion that wo
landed our prisoners under guard upon n
couplo of tho larger Islands, nnd thon
towed tho ships of tho First Born to tho
shaft, whero wo managed to wedgo a num
ber of them securely In tho Interior of the
great well.
Then wo turned on tho buoyancy rays
in the balance of them and lot thorn rise
by themselves further to block tho passngo
to Omcan as they camo Into contact with
tho vessels already lodged thcro.
Wp now felt that It would bo somo time,
at lenst, beforo tho returning First Born
could reach tho surface of Omcan, and that
v,e would have ample opportunity to mako
for tho subterranean passages which Icad
to Issus.
Ono of tho first utcps I took was to hasten
personally with a good-sized forco to tho
Island of tho submarine, which I took with
out resistance on tho part of tho small
guard there.
I found tho submarine In Its pool, nnd
at onco placed a strong guard upon It nnd
tho Island, nhero I remained to wait tho
coming of Cnrthorls nnd the others.

of your erstwhile captive?"
Ho smiled a very grim smllo pregnant
with hidden moaning.

replied. "We hao been expecting you and

you wero all ready to become my prisoners
with scarce a blow struck on either sldo"
Tho fleet must havo missed you," he said,
"but It will return to Omean, nnd then that
will bo n very different matter for John
Carter."
"I do not know that tho fleet has misled
mo ns yet," I said, but of course ha did not
grnp my meaning, and only looked putiled.
"Many prisoners travel to Issus In your
grim craft, Yersted?" I nsked.
"Very many," he assented.
"Might you remember ono whom men
called Dejah Thorls?"
"Woll Indeed, for her great beauty, nnd
(hen, too, for tho fact that sho wan wife to
tho first mortal that eveV escaped from
Isius through all Iho countless nges of her
godhood Ami they Bay thnt Issus remem
bers her be-Jt ns tho wife of ono nnd the
mother of another who rnlsed their hnnds
ngalnst tho goddess of Life Eternal."
I shuddered for fear of the cowardly re
vengo that I know Issus might have taken
upon tho Innocent Dejah Thorls for tho
sacrllego of her Bon and her husband.
"And whero Is Dojah Thorls now?" I
nsked, knowing thnt he would say tho
vords I most dreaded, but yet I locd her
so that I could not refrain from hearing
even tho worst about her fato so that It fell
from the lips of ono who had seen her but
recently. It was as though It brought her
closer to me.
Yesterday tho monthly rites of Issus wero
held," replied Yersted, "and t saw her then
sitting In her accustomed place at tho feet
of Isius."
"What," I cried; "bIio Is not detd, then?"
"Why no," replied the black; "It has
been no year since sho gazed upon tho
divine glory of the radiant face of "
"No year I" I Interrupted
"Why no," Insisted Yersted; "It cannot
havo been upward of 370 or 380 days"
A great light burst upon me How stupid
I had been I I could scaro restrain nn out
wnrd exhibition of my grcnt Joy.
Why had I forgotten tho great dlffcrcnco
In tho length of Martian and earthly years?
The ten earth ears I had spent upon Bar
soom had encompassed but flvo years and
ninety-six days of Martian time, whoso
days aro 41 mlnuto longer than ours, nnd
whoso years number 687 days.
"I nm In tlmo! I nm In time!"
Tho words surged through my brnln
again and ngnln, until at last I must havo
voiced them audibly, for Yersted shook
his head.
"In tlmo to savo your princess?" ho
nsked, and then without waiting for my
reply: "No, John Carter, Issus will not
give up her own Sho knows that you aro
coming, and cro ever a nndal foot Is Bet
within tho precincts of tho Templo of Issu1),
If such a calamity should befall, Dojah
Thorls will bo put away forocr from tho
last faint hopo of rescue."
"You mean that sho will bo killed morely
to thwart mo?" I nsked.
"Not that, other than as n last resort,"
ho replied. "Hast over heard of tho Tcm
plo of tho Sun? It Is thorn thnt tnoy will
put her. It lies far within tho Inner court
of tho Temple of Issus a little temple
that raises a thin spire far nbeno tho spires
nnd minarets of tho groat tcmplo that sur
rounds It.
"Beneath It, In tho ground, thero lies the
main body of tho temple consisting of 687
circular chambers, ono below another. To
each chamber a single corridor leads
through solid rock from tho pits of Issus.
"As the entire Temple of the Sun revolves
onco with each resolution of B.irsoom nbout
tho sun, but onco each year docs tho cn
trnnco to ench separato chamber como
opposite tho mouth of tho corridor which
forms Its only link to tho world without.
"Hero Issus puts tl oso who displease her,
hut whom sho does not caro to execute
forthwith. Or to punish a noblo of the
First Born sho may cause him to bo plnced
within a chamber of tho Templo of the Sun
for n year. ,
"Ofttlmos sho Imprisons nn executioner
with tho condemned, that death may como
In a certain horrlblo form upon n given day,
or ng.tln, but enough food Is deposited In
tho chamber to sustain llfo but the number
of days that Issus has allotted for mental
anguish.
"Thus will Dojah Thorls die, and her
fate will bo sealed by tho first alien fool
that crosses tho threshold of Issus."
So I was to bo thwarted In tho end.
Though I hnd performed tho miraculous,
and como within a few short moments of
my princess, yet was I ns far from her as
when I stood upon tho banks of the Hudson
48,000,000 miles awiy.
CHAPTER XXI
Through Flood and Flame
YHRSTRD'S Information convinced me
that there was no tlmo to be lost. I
must rench tho Tcmplo of Issus secretly bo
foro the forces under Tars Tarkas assaulted
at dawn.
Onco within Its hated walls I was positive
that I could ovcrcomo the guards of Issus
and bear away my princess, for at my back
I would havo a forco ample for tho occa
sion. (CONTINUKD TOMORROW.)
