Having regained his precious Sari, lingo
cared naught for Mexico. and at once set SAIL
for home, but it was to be many months ere they
reached Paris again.
Arriving at Siam, they attended a function
of the King, where they learned that the sacred
White Elephant of that Merry Monarch had
been stolen by Chinese bandits. A fabulous re-
ward was offered and Zingo's love for sdven-
ture and gold caused him to endeayor to recap
ture the sacred animal.
Again they were beset with dangers which
they overcame singly and in pairs. Captured by
the bandits, Zingo's crew were all placed in huge
barrels with only their heads appearing above
the barrel tops.
lingo managed to escape and returned at
night to rescue the crew, rolled the barrels down
the hillside into the river and by means of rope
passed from man to man and held between their
teeth, lingo, swimming before them, towed them
down the river to the sea, where they were re-
leased by the crew, and, having located the
sacred white elephant, they returned to the
court of the King of Siam, where an army was
quickly gathered to attack the stronghold and
rescue the elephant
This accomplished, lingo Sari, and their
crew with their treasure of gold again set sail
for home with the intention of stopping long
mummy of the ancient Pharaoh, which they had
been told of while in Siam. This sacred relic
they intended taking with them gift to the
home government.
Arriving in Africa they join caravan across
the desert and finally locate the tomb containing
the mummy of the departed ruler of the land.
This they secure and start back with his majesty
in his royal mummy case.
On the way, lingo was attacked by lions in
the desert, and donning suit of armored cloth
ing, he again ventured forth and tracked the
lions to their lair in the jungle where he at
tackled and slew them.
In the meantime a rascally artist, who had
Joined the band, succeeded in dragging lingo
and placed him in the mummy case and had him
shipped to the English Museum in London. This
he did because he was in love with Sari and had
decided to steal her away from her husbands
care.
The artist told Sari that lingo had preceded
them and she, trusting the scoundrel. accom-
panied him in the hopes of overtaking lingo.
Passing through the tropic jungle, they were
captured by giant gorillas and the artist was
killed. The big gorillas, however, were inn
pressed with the beauty of Sari and their kind

tations. Instead of doing her HARM they car

stricken women were cared for by the kindly
lady gorillas, who kept them close prisoners.
lingo drugged and in the mummy case, ar
rived in due time at the museum, and as the SCI
entists, elated at their find opened the royal
casket, lingo regained consciousness Great was
the excitement of the learned doctors to discover
that their thousand year-old mummy was in
reality very live and excited young man.
Explanations followed, and lingo secured
from the English government the swiftest areo-
plane known to science Thus equipped, he
sailed through the air back to Africa in hopes
of finding his beloved wife and rejoining his
ship and his faithful crew.
Zingos luck star again directed his efforts
Soaring above the jungles, lingo espied bit
of white f1uttering in the top of lofty tree
Circling closer and volplaning downward, he
made the startling discovery that it was Sari's
dress and worn by her in the nest of the giant
gorlas.
He at once effected a landing in the nearest
open space and on foot began the search
through the forest for the nest he had discovered
while in midair. "a
Searching and watching for some indication
of the gorillas' nest, lingo soon came on great
bull gorilla who Immediately prepared to do bat
tie with him. .--
AS the great man-monkey approached with
teeth barred ready for the tray, lingo uttered
weird cry that stopped the gorilla in wild amaze
ment. In the choicest of monkey dialect, lingo
spoke to the gigantic creature in its native
tongue. Amusement gave place to joy, and the
huge creature soon learned the story of Zingo's
early life with the monkeys tribe on the Isle
of Monkeys.
1t was happy party that assembled in the
nest of the giant gorillas in the top of the lofty
jungle tree. San and lingo were the guests of
honor and the gorillas outdid themselves in ex-
tending every apology and amends to lingo for
OBTAINING his bride.
Bidding adieu to the gorillas, lingo and Sari

good old ship in the ofing. There was great
celebration when the happy pair reached the
ship, and the joyful crew sailed the old barque
toward France, where lingo and Sari declared
they would forever remain. satisfied with adven-
ture and living only for each other and such
