Within the last few years vegetable
dyes have been superseded in the Tur-
klsh rug making industry to great
extent by coal tar and aniline prepara-
tlons. owing partly TO the lower price
OF the latter. partly to the difficulty of
getting enough Of the vegetable dyes
to supply the fast growing business.
The aniine dyes soon fade in the sun
light. whereas the vegetable dyes will
not fade either in washing or in the
sunlight and will grow softer, richer
aud g!oasier with the passing years.

SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS

EDWARD ID. MALONE reporter on ne Lon

Unngcron, that she desired above all things tomarry
man Of deeds. and would have nothing to do with
him ,cntimcntav till he had become such an ndl-
yidua In despair he asked his paper for a special
mission that would enable him to distinguish him
self. He was given the assignment to interview
Professor George Edward Challenger, a famous SCI
enlist who had returned from South America two
ycars previously with the announcement that ne mad
discovered some prehistoric monsters, and showed
ALLEGED pcturcs Of them. His statements were re-
rcivcd with dcri,ion by the entire scientific world
and the professor who was exceedingly beIhgcrent
refused to have anything more to do with his fellow
scientists and physically assaulted anybody that at
tempted to question him.
Malone called on Challenger but was kicked out
Of the house On account Of his craftsmanship IN
refusing to have the professor arrested, however, the
latter invited him in again, and told the story OF his
experiences in South America with such apparent
ycraci,v that the newspaper man became an cnhusi-
astic believer.

America to verify Challcngcr's statements. They

curiously ctriated, in a manner
which is, | believe, characteristic
of basaltic upheavals. Something
of the sort is to bcsecn in Salisbury
Crags at Edinburgh. The summit
showed every sign of a luXuriant
vegetation, with bushes near the
edge and farther back many high
trees. There was no indication Of
any life that we could see.
That night we pitched our camp
Immediately under the cliff, a
most wild and dcsolatc spot. The
crags above Us were not merely
perpendicular; but curved out
ward at the top, 50 that ascent
was out of the question. Close to
us was the high, thin pinnacle OF
rock which believe | mentioned
earlier in this narrative. Il is like
a broad, red church spire, the top
Of it being level with the plateau,
but a great chasm gaping between.
On the summit of it there grew
one high tree. Both pinnacle and
cliff were comparatively low
