On the way home that night. Helen |l
hardly knew whether to confide In i
Warren. She wondered what he would I i
lay If she told him, and she was really j
Sying to take him Into her confidence. 1
It was Warren himself who opened the |i
way toward a confidence when he said 11
is they entered the apartment: ji
"I wonder if that little Nesbitt girl!'
Is as crazy about Carp as she appears ]
to be?" 1i
Helen smiled knowingly, and justj<
*s she had intended. Warren caught the •
•mile. I
"Well, what are you grinning about j
In such a superior manner?" Think ; 1
you know something that no one else I
suspects?" <
"Perhaps," Helen returned, deter- i i
mined to elicit a certain amount of H
curiosity before she imparted her news. j 1
Warren capitulated after a time. I:
"Well, if you really know something, j
out with It. Can't you see that I am j
eaten up with curiosity?" His manner 11
was at once confidential, and Helen, j i
only too ready to return to their in- 1
formal relations, responded with:
"You will think I know something 11
when X tell you what I overheard to- j i
day."
"Oho," Warren chided, "eavesdrop-! 1
ping, eh?"
"Well, I couldn't help overhearing;
this," Helen defended. 'I began to ' 1
get a headache after I had been there j
a little while to-day, the cigaret 1
smoke was so thick, and I didn't feel ; 1
very well anyway, so I slipped into!:
that little room next to the dining room ,1
to get out of It for a few minutes." 11
"I wondered where you had gone," i
Warren said. I:
"Well, the door was open into the din- >
ing room, and I heard someone talking I
in there, so I went across to close it
softly. I didn't want to be discovered I
where I was, Frances might have im- I
agined that I wasn't enjoying myself. | s
Well, whom do you think 1 discovered ! i
in there together?" |1
"Carp and that little witch; well. I'll l I
be darned!" exploded Warren. 1
"And X heard enough. Warren, to ; l
convince me that that Nesbitt girl is ! ]
impossible." js
Warren opened his eyes. "Must have
been exciting," he remarked. "Well, i
go ahead." i
"Of course I have only Frances' in- i
terests at heart, and I am too fond of j 1
lier not to detest anyone who tries to : 1
make trouble for her," Helen continued, j I
"Well, Carp's entire conversation with j I
the girl was about love." j i
"They were making love?" l
"No, the girl was making love to .
him. You should have heard it. Xf she i

ifred up. If Winifred should ever meet
any girls like that, their influence might
i ruin her."
j "Well, (don't forget," interrupted
[Warren, "that I have warned you time
and again about boarding schools for
girls, and you have always stood up
against me and in fact you always in
sisted that Winifred should go to one.
Now I suppose you will agree with
me that a good publ!" school is good
enough for any girl."
"I guess I do," said Helen meek
ly.
"Well, go on with the story," War
ren persisted.
"Well, this Nesbitt girl was telling
Carp how much she eared about him.
She said she hated Frances, and she
told Carp that he must know that she
had schemed to get down and visit in
New Yolk, just to see him."
"And what did Carp say to all this?"
"He was a dear, of course. I know
that Carp is mad about Frances, and
I thinks that girl is a fool. He told her
that he could not have her here if she
felt that way about Frances. He told
her that sho would have to get those
silly notions out of her head entirely."
Helen stopped here. A knowing grin
was spreading over Warren's face.
"What's the matter, Warren?"
"I have to smile to think how ut
terly you are taken in, my dear."
"Taken in, what do you mean?"
"I mean that you are mistaken In
thinking Carp entirely Innocent. Don't
you really think that he has encouraged
the girl at all? Oh, I don't mean that
he cares for her. but no man could be
utterly immune if a girl as attractive
as she is shows that shfe cares."
"Warren, I don't see how you could
think that of Carp!"
"Of course you don't. Because this
girl is dangerously attractive, you
take the average woman's stand. You
say that she is a regular Circe, and
that of course Carp is innocent. Well,
1 say that I'm sorry lor that kid. She's
been left too much to herself, and she
has some ideas that are bad, I'll admit,
but she's not entirely to blame In this
matter, and I don't think that you
should condemn her so bitterly."
"Of course I condemn her," Helen
returned quickly. "Frances is one of
my dearest friends, and she married a
man who loved her. Their married life
is nothing like ours, let me tell you
that. Do you think I'm going to stand
by and see a little vixen come in and
break it all up? Didn't you think I
would believe my own ears when they
told me that Carp was In the right?"
And Helen, with a sudden relapse, burst
into tears.

Tars Tarkas, who was at the wheel

slightly reduced our speed with the
dawning of a sense of security, but
now I took the helm once more, and we
raced north again at terrific velocity.
The next day we were flying over the
land of Barsoom when something
seemed to go amiss with the engine,
and we descended to a small hill In
order to better make any necessary re
pairs. We had hardly descended when
wo heard the report of a gun from
above us. and on looking upward wc
saw, just clearing the tops of the
nearer hills, a great battleship swing
ing majestically through the air. As
she drew nearer I could not suppress a
wild cry of elation, for upon her bowa
I saw the device of Helium.
As Carthoris, Tars Tarkas and 1
stood gazing at the magnificent vessel,
which meant so much to all of us, we
saw a second and then a third top the
summit of the hills and glide grace
fully after their sister.
Now a score of one man air scouts
were launching from the upper decks
of the nearer vessel, and in a moment
more were speeding in long, swift
dives to the ground about us.
In another instant we were surround
ed by armed sailors, and an officer
stepped forward to address us when
his eyes fell upon Carthoris.
With an expression of surprised
pleasure he sprang forward and, plac
ing his hand upon the boy's shoulder,
called him by name.
"Carthoris, my prince!" he cried.
"Kaor! Kaor! Hor Vastus greets the
son of Dejah Thoris, princess of He
lium, and of her husband, John Car
ter. Where have you been, O my
prince? All Helium has been plunged
in sorrow. Terrible have been the ca
lamities that have befallen your great
grandsire's mighty nation since the
fatal day that saw you leave our
midst."
"Grieve not. my good Hor Vastus,"
cried Carthoris, "since I bring not
back myself alone to cheer my moth
er's heart and the hearts of my be
loved people, but also one whom all
Barsoom loved best—her greatest war
rior and her savior—John Carter,
Prince of Helium!"
Hor Vastus turned in the direction
Indicated by Carthoris, and as his eyes
fell upon me he almost collapsed from j
sheer surprise.
Hair Often Ruined
by Washing With Soap
Soap should be used very carefully, j
if you want to keep your hair looking !
its best. Most soaps and prepared 1
shampoos contain too much alkali, j
This dries the scalp, makes the hair |
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thins for steady use is'
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil !
(which is pure und ttreaseless), and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two-teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
it in. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out
easily, removing every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and
it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
ber of the family for months.
"John Carter!" lie eiclaimed, and
then a sudden troubled look came into
lils eyes. "My prince," he started,
"where hast thou"—
And then he stopped, but I knew the
question that his lips dared not frame.
The loyal fellow would not be the one
to force from mine a confession of the
terrible truth that 1 had returned from
the bosom of fss. tlie river of mystery,
back from the shore of the sen of Ko
rus and the valley Dor.
"Ah, my prince," he continued, as
though no thought had interrupted his
greeting, "that you are back is suffi
cient, and let Hor Vastus' sword have
the high honor of being first at they
feet."
With these words the noble fellow
unbuckled his scabbard and flung his
sword upon the ground before inc.
Could yon know the customs and the
character of red Martians you would
appreciate the depth of meaning that
that simple act conveyed to me and to
all about us who witnessed it.
The thing was equivalent to saying:
"My Bword, my body, my life, my sotll.
are yonrs, to do with as you wish.
Until death and after death I look to
you nlotie for authority for my every
act. Be yon right or wrong, your word
shall be my only truth. Whoso raises
tata hand against yon must answer to
my sword."
It Is the oath of fealty thit men oc
casionally pay to a Jeddak whose high
character and chivalrous acts have In
spired their enthusiastic love o* his fol
lowers. Never had I known this high
tribute paid to a lesser mortal.
There was but one response pos
sible. I stooped and lifted the sword
from the ground, raised the hilt to my
Hps, and then, stepping to Hor Vastus,
I buckled the weapon upon him with
my own hands.
"Hor Vastus,"' I said, placing my
hand upon his shoulder, "you know
best the promptings of your own heart.
That I shall need your sword I have
little doubt, but accept from John C.tr
ter upon his sacred honor the assur
ance that he will never call upon you
to draw this sword other than in the
cause of truth, justice and righteous
ness."
"That I knew, my prince," Up re
plied, "ere ever I threw my beloved
blade at thy feet."
As we spoke other fliers came and
went between the ground and the bat
tleship, and presently a larger boat
was launched fronf above, one capable
of carrying a dozen persons perhaps,
and dropped lightly near us. As she
touched, an officer sprang from her
deck to the ground and, advancing to
Hor Vastus, saluted.
"Kantos Kan desires that this party
whom we have met be brought im
mediately to the deck of the Xava
rian," he said.
As we approached the little craft I
looked about for the members of my
party and for the first time noticed
that Thuvia was not among them.
Immediately Hor Vastus dispatched
a dozen air scouts in as many direc
tions to search for her. It could not
be possible that she had a'iie far since
we had last Eeeu her. We others
stepped to the deck of the craft that
had been sent to fetch ua and a mo
ment later were upon the Xavarian.
The first man to greet me was Kan
tos Ivan himself. My old friend had
won to the highest place in the navy
of Helium, but he was still to me the
same brave comrade who had shared
with me the privations of a Warhoon
dungeon, the terrible atrocities of the
great games and later the dangers of
our search for Dejah Thorls within
the hostile city of Zodanga.
Then I had been an unknown wan
derer upon a strange planet and he a
simple padwar In the navy of Helium.
Today he commanded all Helium's
great terrors of the skies, and I was a
prince of the house of Tardea Mors,
Jeddak of Helium.
He did not ask me where I had been.
Like Hor Vastus, he, too, dreaded the
truth and would not be the one to
wrest a statement from me. That It
must come some time he well knew,
but until it came he seemed satisfied
to but know that I was with him once
more.
lie greeted Cnrthorls and Tars Tar
kas with the keenest delight, but he
asked neither where he had been. He
could scarcely keep his hands off the
boy.
"Yau do not know, John Carter," he
said to me, "how we of Helium love
this son of yours. It Is as though all
the great love we bore his noble father
and his poor mother had been centered
in him. When it became known that
he wag lost 10,000,000 people wept."
"What mean you, Kantos Kan," 1
whispered, "by 'his poor mother?'" for
the words had seemed to carry a sinis
ter meaning which I could not fathom.
He drew me to one qlde.

j SUITABLE DISHES
: FOR THE MEAGER 1
DAYS OF LENTj
• Occasional Abstinence From!
; Meat Is Good For
f the Body j
DURING Lent it is interesting to
seek out the derivation of the
word and the origin of the fast
which is now so very light as hardly
to deserve the name. Long ago it real
ly meant privation. Even still in some
parts people do not taste meat from
one end of the forty days to the other,
but we, degenerate and soft Christians
as we are, think It a terrible hardship
even to lessen the amount of meat
which we eat and deprive ourselves of
even a little.
The word "Lent" is of Teutonic ori
gin and originally meant spring,
though now it la exclusively used to
designate the penitential season that
stretches for forty days before Easter,
the beginning regulated by the time
at which that festival occurs. It was
ordained to commemorate Christ's fast
in the wilderness and to prepare the
heart of man for the great least which
is of primary importance to the Chris
tian: but the method in which the fast
should be observed differs in every
country.
Throughout the Orient, with some
few exceptions, six weeks of prayer
and fasting were preparatory to the
exceptionally severe fast maintained
during Holy Week, but tho Oriental
custom was to fast only five days of
each week, Saturday and Sunday be
ing exempt.
At a later date the wish to realize
the exact number of forty days led to
the practice of beginning Lent on Ash
Wednesday, but the Church of Milan
! even to this day, adheres to the more
; primitive arrangement. Some people
abstain from eating any sort of crea
ture that has life, while others of all
living creatures, eat only tish. Still
others eat birds as well, because of the
Mosaic account of tho creation that
birds, too, sprang from the water.
Others abstain from eating fruit cov
ered with a hard shell or skin and
from eggs.
At one time Christians were expect
ed to pass twenty-four hours without
| food of any kind during Holy Week,
while the more austere subsided upon
one meal daily for the entire forty
days. In the early centuries the use
j of both meat and wine was forbidden.
In Germany dispensations known as
Outterfreife were granted to persons
j unable to fast, and instead they do
nated alms and contributions, which
built many fine structures, such as
the steeple of the Rhine Cathedral,
for this reason known as the Butter
tower. The general prohibition of
eggs and milk during Lent perpetuat
ed the custom of making a gift of
eggs at Easter and of eating pancakes
on Shrove Tuesday,
i Apart from the spiritual benefits to
be derived from fasting it is distinctly
wholesome after the indoor life of
winter, the late hours,'the heavy rich
foods, the inadequate outdoor exer
cise and all their consequent evils, and
so let us not be too quick about dis
pensing ourselves from at least the
abstinence from meat specially as it
is quite possible to have many sub
stantial and economical dishes as sub
stitutes.
Here are a few meager receipts all
of which have been tested by a friend:
Lentil and Carrot Stew
One-half pound lentils.
Two tablespoonfuls thickened milk.
Three carrots.
Two large onions.
Two ounces margarine or butter.
Seasoning.
Wash the lentils overnight and let
theni steep for twelve hours or more.
Then simmer in a pint of water until
quite tender, add the carrots and
onions, cut into small pieces. Stir in
the butter and steam until the vege
tables are soft. Pour the thickened
milk over them and serve in a ring of
mashed potatoes or rice.
Macaroni Soup
One quart fish stock, or milk and
water.
One teaspoonful cornstarch.
Two ounces macaroni.
Two onions.
Seasoning.
One-half cup cream.
Cook the onions until soft and rub
through a sieve into the stock, thicken
with the cornstarch, add the /liaca
roni, broken small, and cook until it
is tender. Season well, and, lastly, be
fore serving, stir i*> the cream. This
addition is an imprpvement, but not
necessary.
Onion Savory
Four onions.
Three cold potatoes.
Three ounces butter.
Three ounces grated cheese.
One egg.
One-half cup milk.
One ounce breadcrumbs.
Seasoning.
Boil the onion 3 until tender, break
them up with a fork: add the cheese,
butter, milk, the egg well beaten, and
beat all together well. Season and add
the potatoes cut into neat rounds. Put
in a well-greased fire proof dish and
cover with the breadcrumbs, dot
over with butter and bake in a quick
oven until brown.
Vermicelli Patties
Pour ounces vermicelli.
Two ounces grated cheese.
One-half pint white sauce.
One ounce margarine.
Seasoning.
Pastr.v.
Boil the vermicelli into small pieces,
cook until quite tender and mix it with
the margarine, sauce and seasoning.
Line the patty tins with pastry and
bake: fill with vermicelli and reheat in
a moderate oven.
Eggs With Black Butter
Fry the eggs in margarine, allowing
a scant tablespoonful to every two
eggs, take them out and add vinegar
and seasoning to the margarine, al
lowing an equal quantity. Put. the eggs
on neat rounds of toast and pour the
sauce over, serve very hot, garnished
with finely chopped parsley.
MORE THAN GOOD "RESOLVES"'
XEEDEI) TO GET OCT OF DEBT
In the March Woman's Home Com
panion is an Interesting article on debt
and how to get out of it by a wafhan
who was almost ruined by her hus
band's carelessness and extravagance.
Among other things she says:
"If a family that has been living
outside its income wants to start to
live Inside, something more than a
good resolve is necessary. Usually
that man and woman have got to form
a wholly new circle of friends. They
must leave those who are living out
side, and take up their abode among
those who are living Inside. Man is a
gregarious animal. His will-power
needs all the help it can get from a
congenial and approving public opin
ion."

(Continued.)
While he was away we came to an
other decision. It had been for some
weeks preparing. The diggings- were
becoming overcrowded. Almost every
loot of the bar was occupied, and more
men were coming in every day. No
longer could the - newcomer be sure of
his color the afternoon of his arrival,
but> was forced to prospect here and
there up and down the river until ho
found n patch of the pay dirt Most
trusted simply to luck, but some had
systems on which they worked. I have
seen divining rods used. The believers
In chance seemed to do as well as any
one else.
But, also, our own yield was de
creasing. The last week we had gain
ed only nineteen ounces nil told. This
might be merely a lean bit of misfor
tune, or it might mean that we had
taken the best from our ten claims.
Since the human mind Is prone to
changes, we inclined to the latter the
ory. We were getting restless. No
miner ever came to California who did
J not believe firmly that he would have
done much better had he come out
one voyage earlier, and no miner ever
found diggings so rich that he had not
a sneaking suspicion that he could do
even better "a little farther on:"
Our restlessness was further In
creased by the fact that we weve now
seeing a good deal of Sain Bagsby, the
hunter. lie and Yank had found much
in common and forgathered of even
ings before our campfire.
Bagsby was a man of over fifty, tall
and straight as a youngster, with a
short white beard, a gray eye and
hard, tanned flesh. He was a typical
Itocky mountain man, wearing even
in tho hottest weather his fur cap with
the tail hanging behind, his deerskin
moccasins and his fringed buckskin
hunting shirt. Mining possessed no In
terest for him whatever. He was by
profession a trapper, and he had cross
ed the plains a half dozen times.
"No mining for me;" he stated em
phatically. "I paddled around after
the stuff for awhile, till my hands
"But why don't you fellow* branch
out?" Babsby always ended.
swelled up like p'ison and my back
creaked like a frozen pine tree in the
wind. Then I quit, and I stayed quit
I'm a hunter, and I'm makin' a good
llvin', because I ain't very particular
on how I live."
He and Yank smoked interminable
pipes and swapped yarns. Johnny and
I liked nothing better than to keep
quiet and listen to them. Bagsby had
come out with Captain Sutter and told
of that doughty soldier's early skir
mishes with the Indians. His tales of
die mountains, the plains and the game
and Indians were so much romance to
us, and we both wished heartily that
fate could hare allowed us a chance
at such adventures.
"But why don't ycvi fellows branch
out?" Bagsby always ended. "What
do you want to stick here for like a lot
of groundhogs? There's rivers back In
the hills a heap better than this one,
and nobody thar. You'd have the place
plumb to yoreselves. Git in where the
mountains Is really mountainous."
"If Sam Bagsby would join us it
might be worth trying," we came to
at last.
But Sam Bagsby scouted any such
Idea.
"I ain't that kind of a tomfool," said
he. "If I want to paddle my hands
blue I'd do it yere. I couldn't make
more'n a livln' anyway. I tell you I
ain't got no use for yore pra'rie.dog
grubbing!"
Then McNally had an Inspiration.
"Will you go, Sam, if we pay you for
going?" he asked.
"Sure." replied the trapper at onee.
"I'm a laborin man. I'll go anywhar
I'm paid to go."
It came out that Bagsby's ideas of
proper compensation were his supplies,
slo a week in gold and a drink of
whisky twice a day? In all this gold
country he was the only man I met
who genuinely despised money. I real
ly think we were Lurried to our deri
sion by this unexpected reasonable
ness on his part. At any rate, we do
elded definitely to go.
There were nine of us—Bagsby,
Tank, Johnny Fairfax, myself, Don
Caspar, Vasquez, McXaily, Muck Bar
ry and Missouri Jones.
Bagsby got us up long before day
light. The air was chilly, In contrast
to the terrific heat to be expected
later in the day, so wo hastened to
finish our packing and at dawn were
off.
Until about 3 o'clock we journeyed
through a complete solitude; then we
came upon some men digging in a dry
wash. They had piled up a great heap
of dirt from a hole. We stopped and
talked to them and discovered that
they were working what they called
"dry diggings." The pay dirt they ex
cavated from wherever they found it,
piled it in a convenient, place and there
left it until the rains should permit its
washing. They claimed their dirt
would prove to be very rich, but I
thought myself that they were labor
ing in great faith. Also we learned
what Bagsby had known right along,
but which he had not bothered to tell
us—that we were now about to cross
the main overland trail.
We stopped that night near the road
j and at a wayside inn or roadhouse of
logs kept by a most interesting man.
I Fie served us an excellent meal, in
| eluding real eggs, and afterward join
ed us around the tire, lie was au
Italian, short, strongly built, with close
curly liair, a rollicking, good natured
face, and with tiny gold rings in his
ears. Johnny and he did most of the
talking, while we listened. No part of
the civilized world seemed to have
been unvisited by this pair. Johnny
mentioned Taris. Our host added na
intimate detail as to some little street.
London appeared to be known to them
from one end to the other; Berlin, Ed
inburgh, St. Petersburg even, and a
host of other little fellows whose
names I never knew before and cannot
remember now. They swapped remi
niscences of the streets, the restau
rants and the waiters and proprietors
thereof; the alleys and byways, the
parks and little places. I knew in a
general way that Johnny had done the
grand tour, but the Italian with his
gold earrings and his strong, brown,
good humored peasant face puzzled me
completely. llow came he to be so
traveled, so Intimately traveled? He
was no sailor. That I soon deter
mined.
The two of them became thoroughly
interested, but after a time the native
courtesy of the Italian asserted itself.
He evidently thought we might feel
left out of it, though I think the oth
ers were, like myself, quite fascinated.
"You lika music?" lie smiled at us
engagingly. "1 getta my Italian tld
dle? No?"
He arose at our eager assent, pushed
aside a blanket that screened off one
end of the log cabin and produced his
"Italian iiddle"—a hand organ!
At once the solution of the wide
wandering among the many cities, the
intimate knowledge of streets and of
piiblic places burst upon my compre
hension. I could see our host looking
upward, his strong white teeth flash
ing in an ingratiating, fascinating
smile, his right arm revolving with the
crank of his organ, his little brown
monkey with the red coat and the anx
ious face elnmbering—
Next morning we crossed,the over
land trail and plunged into a country
of pines, of high hills, of deep canyons
and bold, rocky ridges. The open
spaces wo had left behind and the
great heats. Water flowed in almost
every ravine, and along Its courses
grew green grass and wild flowers.
CHAPTER XV.
The Strike.
WE awoke the fourth morning
to a bright day. The hel
