What should she dot "With but a llttlo respite he might enlarge the window sufficiently i, to permit hor to escape Into tfio forest, but the woman at the door . evidently would not bo denied. Suddenly an inspiration came to her. It , ras a forlorn hope, but well worth putting to the test. "Hush I" she hissed througn tho closed door. "Oda Yorlmoto sleeps. It la his Wish that he be not disturbed." For n. moment there was silence beyond the door. Then the woman grunted, and Barbara, heard her turn back, muttering to herself. The girl breathed a deep sigh of ro llef she had received a brief reprieve from death. Again she turned to the window, where with the shortBWord she commenced the labor of enlarging It to permit the pas sage of her body. The work was neces snrlly slow becauso of tho fact that It must proceed nolBoleasly. For nn hour she worked, and then again came an Interruption at the door. ThlB time It was a man. "Oda Yorlmoto still sleeps," whlsporcd the girl. "Go nwny and do not disturb him. He will bo -very angry If you awaken him." But the man would not bo put oft so astly as had the woman. He still In sisted. "Tho dalmlo has orderod that there shall bo a great hunt today for the heads of tho sel-yo-JIn who havo landed upon Yoka," persisted tho man. "He will bo angry indeed If wo do not call him In tlmo to accomplish tho task today. Let mo speak with him, woman. I do not bellevo that i Oda Yorlmoto still sleeps. Why should I believe one of the scl-yo-JIn? It may ,be that you havo bewitched tho dalmlo," and with that he pushed against tho door. The corpse gave, a little, and the man clued hln eyes to tho ancrture. Barbara held tho sword behind her, and with her shoulder against tho door attempted to rccloso It. "Go away I" she cried, "I shall be killed if you awolton Oda Yorlmoto; and If you enter you, too, shall be killed I" The man Btopped back from the door, and Barbara could hear him In low con verse with some of tho women of the household. A moment later ho returned, and without a word of warning threw his wholo weight against tho portal. Tho corpso nllpped back enough to per mit tho entrance of tho man's body, and as he stumblod Into tho room tho long word of the Lord of Yoka fell full and keen across tho back of his brown neck. Without a sound ho lunged to the floor, dead. Tho womon without had caught a fleet ing gllmpso of what had taken placo within tho llttlo chamber, oven before Barbara Harding could slam to the door again. With ehrleks of rage and fright they rushed Into tho main street of tho village shouting at tho tops of their voices that Oda Yorl moto and Hawa Nlsho had been slain by tho woman of tho scl-yo-JIn. InBtantly tho village swarmed with Samurai, women, children and dogs. They rushed toward the hut of Oda Yorlmoto, filling the outer chamber, where thoy Jabbered oxcltcdly for several minutes, the warriors attempting to obtain a coherent story from tho moaning women of tho dalmlo's household. Barbara Harding crouched oloso to tho door, listening. Sho knew that the crucial moment was nt hand; that there were at best but a few moments for her to live. A sllont prayer roso from her parted lips. Sho placed tho sharp olnt of Oda. Yorlmoto's shortsword ngnlnst her breast and waited waited for tho coming of tho men from the room beyond, snatching a jrow brief seconds from eternity cro she drove the weapon Into her heort. Therlero plunged through tho Jungle at a run for several minutes before lie caught sight of tho muckor. FARMER SMITHS' CAN YOU TAKE A DARE? Dear Children The other day I had the misfortune to seo three boys jump ing from a platform onto the sand rather than rcfiiBo to take a "dare." Having: had the pleasure of being; a boy, I am aware of the terrible crime it is to be a "coward," simply becauso you refuse to divo off a high place into tho river or hang on the back of tho ice wagon or trolley car. In these talks I havo repeatedly told you that "NO" keeps nnd "YES" gives away. When you say "No" to a daro, you simply keep your head or arms or whatever is involved in tho recklessness of taking the dare. It is' true of boyhood that most of the dares are thoso which involve physical danger. It would bo a good idea if the teacher, it seems to me, would daro tho boys to pass their examinations. It would bo splendid if the mothers could only dare their boys to bo good and strong men. I wonder why it does not seem to amount to anything if we daro a boy to stop smoking cigarettes. The things which aro usually the subject of dares aro very trivial in most cases. I suppose I should put in right here that one of the boys who was dared to Jump off the platform onto the sand sprained his ankle, but that might not mako it any stronger. Here is a DARE FOR YOU: I dare you to stop "HITCHING ON" to trolley cars, ice wagons, trucks and moving vehicles. There 1 I DARE you to write and tell me that you TAKE my dare. PARMER SMITH, Children's Editor. The Rainbow Animals By CAROLINA CA8SACIO, East Lansdowne. Once upon a time there were two animals, ' a dog and a cat, and every time they met they quarreled. Now H happened that Altco, the llttlo girl who owned the cat, lost the Rainbow Button Farmer Smith had sent to her, so.she sent him a 2-cent stamp and asked for another one. In the meantime she found her old one and then she had (we, She didn't know what to do with it. Eho waa sitting by the window and think ing what to do with it when suddenly she jumped up and called out, "Here, Tom" ithat waa the cat's name), Tom came in and she put the pin on" him. So Tom went out again and met the dog. While they were quarreling the dog saw the pin. Ha asked where he got It, so Tom told him all about It. Now Mary, the owner of tWe dog, was a yery poor but kind-hearted little gr). While he was sitting down Spot (for that was (he dog's name) came n and told Mary all about it, so Mary sent for two pins, one for Spot and one for herself. Since then Spot and Tom have always read the news of Farmer Smith's JUnbow Club. After that yery time they met they would act nicely. Our PostoHice Box Elizabeth Green has been sick in bed for four ions weeks. She is up and out now, howeier, and we are sure the happy times that are coming will make her forget all about the tedious hours "under the covers." Elizabeth expects to send a story. It writ-, tog will confine our little convalescent to the 'i, liou too closely, we advise waiting until compete strength returns. Mary lUclk believes in making her sen tences emphatic. She writes in red ink! She l nine years old and has just been promoted to the 4th grade. Claire Bader, Mervlne street, writes a friendly little note that fives promise of comradeship with Very one In the Rainbow Club. Albert SylW, North 10th street, turns his Rainbow button upside down until h has done a kind act Then he feels that be U entitled to -wear It straight again. Albert belongs to the crew that earnestly lives up to the first object of its club I " WaUtr CrowJ is Another Philadelphia, Rainbow boy who has. gone to Ocean City "Are you still on the trail?" ho called to tho man beforo him. "Sure," replied Byrne. "It's dead easy. Thoy must 'a' been a dozen of 'em. Even .i mutt like me couldn't miss it." "We must go carefully, Byrne," cautioned Therlero. "I have had experience with these fellows before, and I can tell you that you never know when one Is near you until you fool a spear In your back. Unless you nre most watchful. We must make all the hasto we can of course, but wo shall bo of no aid to Mile. Harding If wo rush Into nn ambush and our heads are lost." Byrne saw the wisdom, of his compan ion's advice, and tried to profit by It; but something which seemed to dominate him today carried him ahead at rccklesi, break heck speed tho flight of an eagle would have been all too slow to meet tho require ments of his unaccountable haste. Once ho found himself -wondering why he was risking his llfo to avenge or rescuo this girl whom ho hnted so. He tried to think that It was for tho ransom yes, that was It, the ransom. If he found hor allvo and rescued her he would claim tho lion's sharo of the booty. Therloro, too, wondered why Byrne, of all men upon the Halfmoon, the last that ho should have expected to risk a thing for the sake of Miss Harding, should bo tho fore' most In pursuit of her captors. ''How for behind should be Sanders and Wilson?" ho temarked to Byrno after they had been on tho trail for the better part of an hour. "Should wo not watt for them to ronch us? Four mny do much moro than two." ' "Not w'n Billy Byrno's one of de two," replied tho mucker, and continued doggedly along tho trail. Another half-hour brought them sudden ly In sight of a native village. Billy Byrno was for dashing straight Into tho center of It and "cleaning It up," bb ho put It; but Thorloro put hln foot down firmly on that propostlon, and finally Byrno saw that tho other waa right. "Tho trail leads straight toward that place," said Thorloro, "so It shall bo hero tha' they carried her. But which of the huts sho' Is In now we should try to decide bofore wo make an attempt to save her. Sacrc nom d'un plpo 1 Now, what think you of that?" v "T'lnk o' wot?" asked tho mucker. "Wot's eatln' yeh?" "Observe thoso three men down thcro In tho village, Byrno?" nsked tho French man. 'They aro no more aboriginal head huntors than am 1. They aro Japanese I Thcro must be something wronfir with our trailing, for It Is most certain that tho Japnneso aro not hoad-huntera." "There ain't been nothln' phoney about our trallln', o," Insisted Byrne, "nn" whether Japs or bean collectors or not, here's whero do ginks dat copped do doll hiked her. If doy nln't dere now It's because dcy went t'rough an' out do odder side seo?" "Hush, Byrne I" whispered Therlero. "Llo down behind this bush. Somo ono Is coming along this othor trail to the right of us," and as ho spoko ho dragged tho mucker down besldo him. For a moment they crouched, breathless and oxpectant, and then the slim figure of an almost nudo boy emerged from tho foli age closo besldo and cntored tho trail toward tho village. Upon his head he bore a bundle of IVrowood. When ho was directly opposlto tho watch ers Therlero sprang suddenly upon him, clapping a silencing hand ovor tho boy'B mouth. In Jnpaneso ho whispered a com mand for silence. "Wo shall not harm you If you keep still," ho said "and answer our questions truthfully. What village Is that?" "It Is tho chief city of Oda Yorlmoto, Lord of Yoka," replied tho youth. "I am Oda Iscka, hln son." "And tho large hut In tho contor of the vlllago Is tho palace nt Oda Yorlmoto?" gucssod Therlero shrewdly. "it It" Tho Frenchman was not unversed In the ways of Orientals, and he guessed also that to sped the summer. This young man di vides his time equally between bathing and fishing and is managing to turn Into an "Indian face" as far as color Is concerned.

He knew that a direct question as to tho where abouts of the girl would call forth cither a clever Oriental evasion or an equally clover Oriental lie. "Does Oda Yorlmoto Intend slaying tho whlto woman that was brought to his house last night?" naked Therlero. "How should tho son know tho Intentions of his father?" replied tho boy. "Is she still alive?" continued Therlero. "How should I know, who was asltcp when sho wns brought and only heard tho womenfolk this morning whispering that Oda Yorlmoto had brought homo a new woman the night before?" "Could you not seo her with your own eyes?" nsked Thcrlore. "My eyes cannot pass through tho door of tho little room behind, In which they still were when I left to gather firewood a half hour since," retorted tho youth. "Wot's de chink say In'?" asked Billy Byrno, Impatient of .the conversation, no word of which was Intelligible to him. "Ho says, In substance," replied Therlero, with a grin, "that Miss Harding Is still alive, nnd In tho back room of that largest hut In tho center of tho village street But" arid his face clouded "Oda Yorimoto, the chief of tho tribe, Is -v Ith her." Tho mucker sprang to his feet with an oath, and would have bolted for tho village had not Therlero laid a detaining hand upon hit shoulder. "It la too lato, my friend," he said sadly, "to make haste now. We may If we nre cautious be ablo to sae her life, and later possibly avengo her wrong. Let us act coolly and after somo manner of plnn, so that wo mny work together and not throw our liven away usetessly. The chances aro that neither of us wltl come out of that vil lage alive, but we must minimize that chance to the utmost If wc shall servo Mite. Harding." 'iW.e.11, wot's do word?" nsked the mucker, for ho saw that Therlero was right. "Tho Junglo approaches tho vlllago most closely on tho opposlto side the side In the rear of the chief's hut," pointed out The rlero, "Wo must clrcto about until wo can reach that point unseen; hen wo may mako further plans from what wo shall bo able to sec." "An" tils?" Byrno shoved n thumb at Oda Yseka. "Wo shall take him with us It would not be safe to let him go now." "Why not cronk him?" suggested Byrno. "Not unless wo must," replied Thcrlcre. "Ho Is but a boy. Wo shall doubtless havo all the killing wo desire among the men be fore wo got nwny." "I never did havo no uso for chlnkn," said jthc mucker, as though In extenuation of hln suggestion that thoy murder the youth. For somo unnccountnblo reason hr felt a sudden compunction becauso of his thoughtless re mark. What In tho world w coming over him? ho wondered. HoM be taring white pants nnd playing lawn tennis presently if ho continued to grow very much softer and moro unmanly.

By Farmer Smith Just ns the sun was peeping into little Tulip Henrt's room In the palace of Cloud land and when sho had only one eyo open there was a loud knock nt the door, "Don't be scared, Tulip Heart, said Zu Zu, who was awako and smiling from the bed knob whero he was still caught fast. "But who is It," nsked Tulip Heart, "I niot' knew that any one knocked nt the doora In cloudland." "That's Dopy Down Dllly, the Sand Man," laughed Zu Zu. "Ho never knocks, except In the day time. He must always knock in the day time or else he'd be keeping peopV) asleep all the time. He looks awful cross, but don't mind h'lm. Tulip Heart, he won't do you any harm, and some day he may show you his Slijmber Cavo where he keeps the Night Mares and Fairy Dreams." "Is he going to let you out of the bed knob today?" asked Tulip Heart "I hope so," Bald Zu Zu. "There's his knock again. Tell him to come in and I'll pretend to be crying." "Come In, Dopy Down Dllly," cried Tulip Heart, and the door opened and the Band Man came In, Tulip Heart had always thought that the Sand Man was big or tall. She was greatly surprised to see that he wasn't any bigger than she was. Such a funny-looking little man, for he wore a blue suit all in one piece like a, pair of night-drawers and it buttoned up the back with little gold buttons. His face waa thin and wrinkled and he was cross and sleepy-looking, His hair stood up straight like grass, and though It was gray it really looked green in the sunlight. . Every few minutes he would open his mouth and yawn. (To be Continued.) The Keyboard A Favorite. Foem of William Qulnn, Jr., E. Firth st.

"It's heads," said the mucker, grinning. "Gee! Wot's de rnoket?" Both men turned toward the village, where n Jabbering mob of half-casto Japa nese had suddenly appeared In the streets, hurrying toward the hut of Oda Yorlmoto. "Somepln doln', eh?" said the mucker. "Will, here goes s'-longl" And he broke from the cover of the jungle and dashed across the clearing toward the roar of Oda Yorlmoto's hut. CHAPTER XIII. The Mucker Plays Defender BARBARA HARDING heard the Samurai in the room beyond her prison advanc ing toward the door that separated them from her. She pressed the point of the dalmio'a sword to her breast. A heavy knock fell upon the door, and at the sarde instant the girl was startled by a noise behind her a noise nt the little window at the far end of tho room. Turning to face this new danger, she waa electrified to seo the head and shoul ders of the mucker framed In the broken Brjuaro of the half-demolished window. The girl did not know whether to feel renewed hope or utter despair. She could not forget the heroism of her rescue by this brutal fellow when the Halfmoon had gone to pieces the day before, nor could Bhe banish from her mind his threat of violence toward her, or his brutal treat ment of Mallory and Therlere. And the question arose in her mind as to whether she would be any better oft in hlB power than in the clutches of the savage Samurai. Billy Byrne had heard the knock upon tha door before which the girl knelt. He had seen the corpses of the dead men at her ft- ,Ie lia4 observed the tell-tale position of the Bword which the girl held to her breast. He had read much of the story at a glance. "Cheer up, kid!" he whispered, 'TU be wit' youse In a minute, on' Theriere's out here, too, to help youse if I can't do it alone." The girl turned toward the door. "Walt," she cried to the Samurai upon the other side, "until I move the dead men. Then you may coma In. Their bodies bar the door now," All that kept the warriors out was tha fear that possibly Oda Yorimoto might not be dead after all, and that, should they force their way Into the room without his permission, some of thetji would suffer for their temerity. Naturally none of them was keen to lose his head for nothing; but the moment that the girl spoke of the dead men." they knew that Oda Yorlmoto had been slain, too. With one accord they rushed the little door, The girl threw all her weight against her side, while the dead men. each to tha extent of his own weight, aided the woman who had killed them. Behind the three Billy Byrne kicked and tore at the mud wall about the window in a frantic effort to enlarge, the aperture sufficiently to per mit his huge bulk to pass through into tha little room. , The mucker won to tha girl's side first. nnd snatching Oda Yorlmoto'a longsword ftom the floor, ho threw his great weight ngnlnst tho door, commanding tho girl to mako for tho window and escapo to tho forest as quickly nq sho could. "Therlero Is waiting dcrc," ho said "Ho will seo youso do moment yeh loach do winder, nnd den youso '11 bo safe." "Hut you?" cried the girl. "What of you?" "Never youse mind me," commanded Billy Byrno. "Youso Jcs' do as I tolls yeh, seo? Now bent It." nnd ho gave her n rough shove toward tho window. And then, between the combined efforts of tho Knmurni upon ono sldo and Hilly Byrne, of Kelly's Gang, upon tho other, tho frail door burst from Its rattan hinges and fell to ono side Tho first pf tho Samurai Into tho llttlo room wns cleft from crown to breast bone by tho keen edge of the sword of tho Lord of Yoka, wielded by tho mighty arm of tho mucker. The second took tho count with n left hook to the Jaw, nnd then nil that could crowd through tho llttlo door swarmed upon tho husky bruiser from Grand nvenue. (CONTINUED TOMORROW.)
