A year had passed since the white men had fired upon the lad and driven him back Into the Jungle to take up his search for the only remaining crea tures to whom he might look for com panionshipthe great apes. For months the two had wandered east ward, deeper and deeper into the Jun- The year had done much for the boy turning his already mighty muscles to thews of steel, developing his wood craft to a point where It verged upon h nncannv. perfecting his arboreal instincts and training him In the use of both natural and artificial weapons (Ton so And defense. tto hnii become at last a creature of marvelous physical powers and mental cunning. He was still but a boy, yet so great was bis strength that the powerful anthropoid with which he f ten enquired In mimic battles was no match for him. Akut naa laugui him to fight as the bull ape fights, nor ever was there a teacher better fitted to Instruct In the savage warfare of primordial man or a pupil better equipped to profit by the lessons o! a master. As the two searched for a band oi the almost extinct species of ape to whlch Akut belonged they lived upon ithe best the jungle afforded. Antelope and zebra fell to the boy's spear or Iwere dragged down by the two power ful beasts of prey, who leaped upon ithem from some overhanging limb or from the ambush of the undergrowth beside the trail to the water hole or the ford. i Akut and Jack, now called Korak In ;the ape language, were moving slowly down the wind, and warily, because ithe advantage was with whatever iheast mleht chance to be hunting lahead of them, where their scent' Spoor was belne borne by "the light Dreeze Suddenly the two halted simultaneous ly. Two heads- were cocked upon one side. Like creatures hewn from solid rock they stood Immovable, listening. Nt- p tnnsrlp nulvered. For several seconds they remained thus. Then Korak advanced cautiously a feW yards and leaped nimbly Into tree. Akut followed close upon his heels, either had made a sound that would have been appreciable to hu man ears at a dozen paces. Stopping often to listen, they crept forward through the trees. That both And Then the Killer Paused, were greatly puzzled was apparent from the questioning .looks they cast no onnther from time to time. I Finally the lad caught a glimpse of a palisade a hundred yards aneao aim beyond it the tops of some goat skin tents and a number of thatched huts, ni. ltn uncurled In a savage snarl. Blacks! How he hated them! He signed to Akut to remain where he he advanced to reconnolter. - He heard a voice beyond the pali tnwnrd that he made his ' . - a trrent tree overhung the in closure at the very point from which the voice came.

All that his eyes re- him his target; then, lightning-like, the missile would fly to its goal. With raised spear he crept among the branches of the tree, glaring down ward. In search of the owner of the voice which ro3e to him from below. At last he saw a human back. The 'spear hand flew to the limit of the throwing position to gatner me iorce that would send the iron shod missile completely through the body of the un conscious victim. And then the Killer paused. He leaned "forward a little to get a better view of the target. He lowered his spear cautiously that It might make no noise by scraping niralnst foliage or branches. Quietly he crouched in a comfortable position olone a ereat limb, and there he lay with wide eves, looking down In won der upon the creature he had crepU upon to kill looking aown upon a ui ti Piri. r little nut brown maiden. Korak wondered what the girl would do were he to drop suddenly from the tr to her side. Most likely she would scream and run away, 'inen woum tho men of the village with ooora and trans and set upon him. They would either kill him or drive him away. A lump rose in the boy's throat He rrnvpri the comDanlonshlp of his own kind, though he hardly realized how greatly. He would have iiKea io any Hnwn hsside her." though he knew from the words he had overheard that she spoke a language with which he was unfamiliar. " At last he hit upon a plan. He would attract her attention and reas sure her by a smiling greeting from a greater distance.' Silently he wormed his way back into the tree. It was his intention to hail her fiom beyond the palisade, giving her the feeling of se curity which he imagined the stout barricade would afford. He had scarcely left his position In the tree when his attention was at tracted by a considerable noise upon the opposite side of the village. By moving a little he could see the gate at the far end of the main street. A number of men, women and chil dren were running toward it It swung open, revealing the head of a caravan th ormoslte side. It trooped in motly organization black slaves and dark hued Arabs of the northern des- ratnff camel drivers urging on their vicious charges; overburdened donkeys, waving sadly pendulous ears while they endured with stole patience the brutalities of their masters ; goats, Into the village they all trooped be hind a tail, sour old man, who rode, without greetings to those who shrank from his path, directly to a large goaf i,in tont in the center of the village.

And so, obedient to the tribal laws of his kind, he left them alone, become suddenly absorbed in a fuzzy caterpillar of peculiarly succulent appearance, The larva disposed of, he glancea from the corner of an eye at Korak, The youth had deposited his burden upon a large limb, where she clung desperately to keep from falling. "She will accompany us," said K.0- rak to Akut, Jerking a thumb ln the direction of the girl. "Do not harm her. We will protect her." Akut shrugged. To be burdened by the young of man was ln no way to his liking. He could see from her evi dent fright at her position on tne branch and from the terrified glances she cast in his direction that she was hopelessly unfit. By all the ethics of Akut's training and inheritance the unfit should be eliminated, but lf the Killer wished this she there was nothing to be done about it but to tolerate her. Merlem spent an evening and a night of unmitigated terror. , , , , - falls the length of the entire frock.

Varieties of Oysters, We do not distinguish many differ ent kinds of oysters when we eat them, and yet there are, It Is said, be tween 350 and 400 varieties of oysters In the world. Among - the, smallest known is that which the , people of England, France and Germany usually eat the oysters dug ln the neighbor hood of Ostend, ln Belgium. The larg put ovsters are those of the Pacific ocean and the Philippine Islands. Ordi nary oysters of choice varieties, trans planted from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific, have been found to develop Into great size, but to lose their flavor to such an extent that they became scarcely, eatable.
