thought Of d|evOurins the repulsiVe
things. Some eggs they found, and
these he sucked raw, as also he ate
roots and tubers which Akut I'M
earthed.
Tha. night the son OF Tarzan was
colder than be ever had been In all his
life. The pajama trousers were not
very heavy. but they were much
heavier than nothing. And the next
day he roasted in the hot sum-, for
again their way led much across wide
and treeless plains.
1t was still in the boys mind to
travel to the south and circle back to
the coast In search of another outpost
OF civilization. He had said nothing
OF this plan to Akut, for he knew that
the old ape would look with displeaS-
ure upon any suggestion that savored
of separation.
For a month the two wandered on,
the boy learning rapidly the laws Of
the jungle his muscles adapting them
selves to the new mode OF life that
had been thrust upon them. The theWs
of the sire had been transmitted TO
the son-it needed only the hardening
Of use to develop them.
One day as they were moving slowly
along beside Il river they came uneX-
pectedly upon a native village. Some
children were playing beside the water.
The boys heart leaped within his
breast at sight of them. Fer more
than q month he had seen no human
being. What If these were naked say
ages? What If their skins were black?
Were they not creatures fashioned in
the mold Of their Maker as was heF
They were his brothers and s%istersl
He started toward them.
With a low warning Akut laid a
hand upon his arm To hold him back.
The boy shook himself free and, with
d shout of greeting, ran forward to-
ward the ebon players.
The sound of his voice brought ev-
cry head erect. Wide eyes viewed him
Tor an instant, and then, with screams
OF terror, the children turned and fed
toward the village. AT their heels ran
their mothers, and from the village
gate, in response to the alarm, anne
a score of warriors, hastily snatched
spears and shields ready in their
hands.
At sight of the CONSERVATION he had
wrought the boy halted. The glad
smile faded from his face as with wild
shouts and menacing gestures the war
riors ran toward him. Akut was call
ing to him from behind TO turn and
fee; that the blacks would kill him.
With a low snarl, quite similar to
that Of a bafiled beast, he turned and
ran into the jungle. There was Akut
awaiting him In a tree. The ape urged
him to hasten in flight, for the wise
old anthropoid knew that they two,
naked and unarmed, were no match
for the sinewy black warriors who
would doubtless make some sort of
search for them through the jungle.
But a new power moved the son Of
Tarzan. He had come with a boys
glad and open heart to offer his friend
ship to these people who were human

\ the Jungle.
His first Iight in the jungle was one
which the son of Tnrzan held longest
In his memory. No savage carnivora
menaced him. There was never Il sign
Of h.deous barbarian, or If there were
the boys troubled mind took no cog
nizance of them.
His conscience was harassed by the
thought of his mothers suffering.
Self blame plunged him into the depths
Of misery.
The killing of the American caused
him little or no remorse. The fellow
had earned his fate. Jacks regret on
this score was due mainly to the erect
which the death Of Conlon had had
upon his own plans,
Now he could not return directly to
his parents, as he had planned. Fear
of the primitive borderiand law, OF
which he had read highly colored, i'm
aginary tales, had thrust him into the
jungle fugitive. He dared not re-
turn 60 the coast ut this point, not
that he was so greatly influenced
through ItISOUdl ltul hS a h'''N
to shield his father and mother from
further sorrow and from the shame OF
having their honOred name dragged
through the sordid degradation Of a
murder trial.
With returning day the boys spirits
rose. With the rising sun came new
hope within his breast. He would re-
turn to civilization by another way.
None would guess that he had been
connected with the killing Of the stran-
ger In the little out of the way trading
post upon a remote shore.
Crouched close to the great ape in
the crotch of Il tree, the boy had shiv-
cred through an almost sleepleSs night.
His light pajamas had been but little
protection from the chill dampness OF
the jungle, and only that side of him
which was pressed against the warm
body of his shaggy companion approx
mated comfort. And so he welcomed
the rising sun with its promise of
warmth as well as light-the blessed
sun, dispeller of physical and mental
Ills.
He shook Akut into wakefulness.
"Come," he said, II am cold and hun
cry. We will search for food out there
In the sunlight" and he pointed TO an
open plain, dotted with stunted trees
and strewn with jagged rock.
The boy slid to the ground as he
spoke, but the ape first looked care
fully about, shifting the morning air.
Then, satisfied that no danger lurked
near, he descended slowly to the
ground beside the Boy.
"Numa and SAILOR, his mate, feast
upon those who descend first and look
afterward, while those who look first
and descend afterward live to feast
themselves" Thus the old ape impart-
ed to the son of Tarzan the boys first
lesson In jungle lore.
Side by side they set off across the
rough plain, for the boy wished first
to be warm. The ape showed him the
best places to dig for rodents and
worms. but the lad only gagged at the
