Ta-den, who had been hunting for some of the smaller mammals, the meat of which is especially relished by the Mo-don, forgot his intended sport in the greater interest of his new discov ery. He would take the stranecr to Om-at nnd possibly together the two would find some wny of discovering the true intentions or the newcomer. And so again through signs he apprised the other that he would nppompnny him and together they descended toward the cliiTs of Om-nt n people. As they appronched these they came upon thc women nnd children working tinder gunrd of the old men nnd the youths gathering the wild fruits and herbs which constitute n part of their met, as wen no tending the small ncres of growing crops which they cultivate. The fields iny in smnll level patches that had been cleared nf trees nnd brush. Their farm implement consisted of mctnl-shod poles which bore a closer resemblnnco to spears thnn to tools of peaceful agriculture. Supplementing these were others with flattened blades thnt were neither linen nor nndp hut instend possessed the nppenrancc of nn unhappy attempt to combine the two Implements in one. At first sight of these people the stranger hnlted nnd unslung his bow, for these creatures were hlnek nn nlhe. thelr bodies entirely eovered rlh hnlr. But Tn-den, Interpreting thc doubt In the other's mind, renssured him with a gesture and n smile. Thc Waa-don. however. Kilt hereil nronml. eielfrrllr Inh. berlng (juration in a Innguiigc which the strnuger discovered his sulile nrulprntnn.l though It wis entirely unintelligible to the former. They made no attempt to inolest him nud he wns now sure thnt he had fallen among a peaceful and friendly people. It was but a short distance now to the CaVCS. mid When thev renehnt thiwn Ta-dcn led the wny aloft upon the wooden pegs, assured thnt this creature wnom ne nnd discovered would hnvc no morediaicult.v hi following him than hau Tarzan the Terrible. Vnr wna h mistaken, for thc other mounted with ease until presently thc two stood within tho recess before the enve nf Ctm.nt- th .- -. ... HV, .... The latter was not there nnd It was miduftcrnoon before ho returned, but In the meantime mnny wnrrlors enmc to look upon thc visitor and In each In stance thc latter wns more thoroughly impressed with the friendly nnd pence uble spirit of his hosts, little guessing thnt he wns being entertnined by a fero cious nnd warlike tribe who never before inu coming ot xa-den nnd Tnnnn had suiTcred a strnngcr among them. At last Om-at rcturncdniid the guest sensed Intuitively that he wns In the presence of a great man nmong these people, possibly a chief or king, ior not only did the uttitudc of the other black warriors indicate this, but it wbh writ ten nUo In the mien and bearing of the splendid creature who stood looking nt him while Tn-tlen explained the cir cumstances of their meeting. "Aud I believe, Om-nt," concluded the Ho-don, that he becks Tnrzan thc Terrible." 1 , ..."A6. B01,ml of tll0t "nine, the first intelljgible word that had fnllen upon the enrs of thc strnngcr since he had come among them, his face lightened. "Tarzan!" he cried, "Tnraan of the Apes!" and by signs he tried to tell mi t,,nt il wns ne whom ho sought. They understood, and nlso they ?ilc?s?d frora tbe "Pression of his face '"at he sought Torznn from motives of 5. . Uon rntncr than the reverse, but of this Om-at wished to make sure. He pointed to the strungcr's knife, iind repeating Tnrzan's name, seized la-den and pretended to stab him, im mediately turning auestioulngly toward the Mruugcr. The latter shook his head vehemently nnd then first placing a hand above his heart ho raised his pmm in the symbol of pence. 'lib is a friend of Tnrznn-jad-guru," exclaimed Ta-dcn. "Either n friend nr n cranf lln. ... plied Om-at. ' "Tnrzan," continued the stranorcr. ou know him? He lives? O tiod, If I could only spenk your language." And again reverting to sign lungungc ho sought to ascertain where Tnrzan WUS. lie would nronounce the nnme unci point in umerent directions, In the cave, down Into the gorge, back toward the mountains, or out upon tho valley below, nnd each time he would raise his brows questloningly and voice the universal -eiw 01 interrogation which they could not fall to understand. But always Om-at shook bis head ' and spread his palms in a gesture which indlcnted that while he understood the question be was ignorant as to the whereabouts ot the ape-man, nnd thon the black chief nttcninted ns hear hn might to explain to tho strnngcr what he Knew of the whereabouts of Tarzan. He called the newcomer Jar-don, which in the language of Pnl-ul-don nienns "strnuger," nnd ho pointed to the sun nnd snld ns. This he repented sevcrnl times nnd then he held up one hand with thc fingers outspread and touching them one by one, Including the thumb, repeated thc word adencu until the stranger understood that he meant five. Aguln he pointed to tho sun and describing nn nrc with his forefinger starting nt the enstern hori zon nnd terminating nt the western, he repented ngnln the words as adencn. It was plain to the stmnger thnt the words meant thnt the sun hnd crossed thc heavens five times. In other words, five days had passed. Om-nt then pointed to the cave where they stood, pronouncing Tnrznn's nnme nnd Imi tating a walking man with the first and second fingers of his right hnnd upon the floor of the recess, sought to show thnt Tnrznn had walked out of thc enve nnd climbed upward on the pegs five days before, but this was ns fnr nB the sign inngtinge would permit him to go This far tho stranger followed him nnd. indicating that he understood, he pointed to himself nud then Indicating thc pegs lending nbovo announced thnt he would toiiow rnrznn. "Let us ko with him." Bnld Om-nt. "for ns yet wo hnve not punlbhed thc Kor-ul-lul for killing our friend and nlly." "Persuade him to wnlt until morn Ing." snld Tn-den, "thnt you may take with you mnny wnrrlors and make u grent raid upon thc Kpr-ul-lul, nnd this time. Um-nt, ao not uiu your prisopors. "Take ns mnny ns you enn nllve nnd from some of them we mny lenrn the fate of Tnrzan-Jnd-guru." ' "Orcnt h the wisdom of the Ho don," leplicd Om-nt. "It shnll bo ns you say, nnd having made prisoners of nil the Kor-ul-lul wc shall make them tell us what we wish to know. And then we shnll mnrch them to thc rim of Kor-ul-gryf nnd push them over the edge of the cliff." , Ta-dcn smiled, llo knew that they would not take prisoner all the Kor-ul-lul wnrrlors thnt they would bo fortunato If they took one nnd It was also possible that they might even bo driven back In defeat, but he knew, too, thnt Om-nt would not hesitate to carry out his tlircnt If he hnd the op. portunlty, so Implncnble wns the hntred of theso neighbors for each other.
