BABIES CAN'T GO
BY PARCEL POST

Babies are not mailable. The
Post-ofice Department so holds
in an edict barring them from
the parcel post.
The question arose over a re-
quest by the postmaster at STRAIT
ford, Okla, for a ruling by the
Department as to whether a pa
tron of his office could send a
two-year-old child by parcel post
from Twin Falls, Idaho, to STRAIT
ford.
The postmaster was greatly
puzzled because he could find
nothing in the regulations COW
ering such a case. So he referr-
ed it to Post-office Department.
Il was the first time the authori-
ties had been asked to rulo upon
the question and it caused mild
sensation.
!. A hurried consultation of off
Gals resulted and after referr-
ing to the parcel post regulations
it was discovered that the Okla

there was nothing in them COW
ering such a case. Second Assist

therefore decided that all human
beings and live animals are barr
ed from the mails.
The one exception, however,
is the queen bee, which is the
only living creature that can en-
joy the privilege of the parcel
post.

clcs. they were as nothing by comparl- son with those possessed by Numa. TO his agility. to his brain and to his long. keen knife he owed his su- premacy.
 His right arm encircled the Hons neck while the left hand plunged the knife time and time again into the unprotected side behind the left shoul- der. while the infuriated beast, drawn upward and backward until he stood on his hind legs. struggled impotently in this unnatural position.
 Had the battle continued a few sec onds longer the outcome might have been different. but all was accom- pllshcd so quickly that the lion had scarce time to recover from it's sur prise before it sunk lifeless to the ground.
 Then the strange figure which had vanquishcd it stood erect upon the car cnss and. throwing back the wild. handsome head. gave the fcarsome cry which few moments earlier had SO startled Clayton.
 Before him he saw the figure Of a young man naked except for loin cloth and few barbaric ornaments on arms and legs and on the breast q priceless diamond locket glenming against a smooth brown skin.
 The hunting knife had been returned to its homely sheath. and the man was gathering up his bow and quiver from where he hnd tossed them when he leaped to attack the lion.
 Ciuyton spoke to the man in English thanking him for his brave rescue and complimentlng him on his wondrous strength and dexterity.
 The only answer was steady stare and faint shrug of the mighty shoul .ders. which may have betokened either disparagement of the service rendered or ignorance of the language. The bow and quiver slung on his back. the wild man once more drew his knife and deftly carved a dozer large strips of meat from the lions carcass Then, squatting upon hls launches he proceeded Co eat motion ing Clayton to join him. The strong white teeth sank into tho raw and dripping flesh in apparent rel ish. but Clayton could not bring him self to share the uncooked meat witl | his strange host. Instead he watched him, and presently there dawned'upol him the conviction that this was Tar | gan of the apes, whose notice he hat seen posted upon the cabin door tha morning.
 If so he must speak English.
 Again Clayton essayed speech witl the ape man. but the replies were in strange tongue, which resembled th' chattering of monkeys mingled witt the growing of some wild beast.

 Soon the girl found that the door was equipped with a heavy wooden bar upon the inside. After several efforts the combined strength of the two enabled them to slip it into place the first time in twenty years.
 
 After Clayton had plunged into the jungle, the sailors-mutineers of the Arrow-fell into discussion of their next step. but on one point all were dgreed-that they should hasten to put off to the anchored Arrow, where they could at least be safe from the spears of their unseen foe.

He knew by their threaten ing gestures and by the expressions upon their evil faces that they wer' enemies of the others, and so he de clded to watch them very closely.
 Tarzan wondered why the men ha, gone into the jungle. Never did i occur to him that one could become lost in that maze of undergrowtl which to him was as simple as thu main street of your own home town.
 When he saw the sailors row ava toward the ship and knew that tn girl and her companion were safe il his cabin he decided to follow tn young man into the jungle and lear what his errand might be.

 Clayton. bewildered and confused. hesltated to follow him. for he thought he was but being led more deeply into the mazes of tie forest, but the ape man returned and. grasping him by the coat, dragged him along until he was convinced that Clayton understood what was required Of him and then left him to follow voluntarily.
 The Englishman finally concluded that he was prisoner .nd saw no al ternative but to accQmphny his captor, and thus they travelled slowly through the jungle while the sable mantle of the impenetrabe night of the forest fell about thom.
 Suddenly Clayton heard the faint re- port of nrearm-a single shot and then silence.
 In the cabin by the beach two thor oughly terrified women chung to each other as they crouched upon the low bench in the gathering darkness.
