At night while the kings guards
slept he stole into Althar's room,
and taking a sword and the girdle,
rushed out. In his hurry he trip
ped over the sword and fell down
stairs, making such a clatter he
awoke the guards. He dropped
the sword and girdle and ran to
conceal himself in the wood. No
sooner had he stepped on its
ground than he began to grow ev-
er SO much bigger till his head
was most up to the clouds. In
trying to escape he was tripped by
huge ropes the kings guards
spread on the ground, and taken
prisoner.
AS there wasn't a prison in the
land big enough to hold the enor-
nous fellow, King Althar COM
manded that for punishment he
must hold great earthen ball
called "The World" over his head.

Way up on the star of Jupiter

his palace are many strange and
wonderful things, such as horrors
that picture what is going on in
other parts of the world, enchant-
ed golden swords which destroy
vast armies at one stroke, and a
golden girdle which makes its
wearer invisible. Near the palace
was a magic wood; any one step
ping on its grounds Immediately
grew very large, so 1t was avoid

In anything promising immediate

Breeds building. Henry Breed
was reputed to be the wealthiest
man on Wall street and one of the
most eccentric. He was to be
found in the most unconvention-

ventional things. Wells intended
TO unfold a plan to Breed that,
with the outlay of some money on
the financier's part, would bring
immense returns to both of
them.
Wells approached the dingy pri-
vate elevator shaft, in a little side
corridor, and pressed the bell
briskly. Presently, he heard the
wheezy noise of the elevator de-
scending. The door swung back
and Wells stepped into the car.
Take me up to Mr.. Breed, :"
Wells calculated in a pompous
tone.
"All right. SIR" the elevator
man replied.
The elevator man was old and
bent. He looked much as Wells
expected to see Breed look, for
no photographs of the latter were
extant and Wells aid never met
him. Naturally this supposed re-
semblance greatly interested
Wells.
You know Mr.. Breed weIl?"
Wells asked.
The little elevator man laughed
