 It took a dozen attempts on the part of the thoroughly frightened blacks to re-enter the village. past the grinning face of their dead fellow. and when they found the food and errows gone they knew. what they only too we'll feared. that the evi spirit of the jun. gle was abroad.
 Only those who saw this terrible god of the jungle died. for was it not true that none left alive In the village had ever seen him; Therefore those who had died at his hands must have seen him and paid the penalty with their lives.
 As long as they supplied him with arrows and food he would not harm them unless they looked upon him. so it was ordered by Mbonga that in ad- dltion to the food offering there should also be laid out an offering of arrows for this Munango Keewati. and this was done from then on.
 When Tarzan came fin sight of the beach where stood his cabin strange and unusual spectacle met his vision

tor abroad Two keen eyes had watch ed every move of the party from the foliage of n nearby tree. TarZan had seen the surprise caused by his notice. and while he could understand nothing of the spoken language of these strange people their gestures and fa- cial expressions told him much.
 The act of the little rat faced sailor in killing one of his comrades had aroused strong dislike in Tarzan. and now that he saw him quarrellng with the fine looking young man his ami mostly was still further stirred. He fitted a poisoned arrow to his bow and drew bead upon the rat faced sailor, but the foliage was so thick that he soon saw the arrow would be denected by the leaves or some small branch. and instead he launched heavy spear from his lofty perch.
 Clayton had taken but dozen steps the rat faced sailor had half drawn his revolver: the other sailors stood watch ing the scene intenHy.
 Professor Porter had already dlsap- peared into the jungle. whither he was being followed by the fussy Samuel T.. Philander. his secretary and assistant.
 Esmeralda. the negross. was busy sorting her mistress baggage from the pile Of bales and boxes beside the cab in, and Miss Porter had turned away to follow Clayton when something caused her to turn again toward the sailor.
 And then three things happened al most simultaneously-the sailor jerked out his weapon and leveled it at Clay tons back. Miss Porter screamed a warning. and long. metal shod spear shot like bolt from above and passed entirely through the right shoulder of the rat faced man.
 The revolver exploded harmlessly In the air. and the seaman crumpled up with scream of pain and terror.

Training Animals.

The psychology of animals is curl
ously like that of young children. In
terest must be won; it cannot be
forced. No appeal, save a direct one
to instinct, is admissible. Penalties
are quite meaningless except as OBJ
stacles in a particular path, and as
such they must never arouse active
fear. 1t will be seen therefore that
the opportunities for cruelty are ne
cessarily limited. Trainers may abuse
their charges, but each time they
do SO they court disaster
