OBJECTED TO WoMAN's SKIRT
Peculiar Reason Advanced by China
man for Refusing to Consider
Matrimonial Alliance.

In spite of the success with which
the campaign against the binding Of
women's feet has been waged In China,
there are still parts where men will
not marry girls who have natural feet.
Missionaries try, so far as possible,
to arrange marriages between Chris
tian girls and Christian men. One of
our Christian girls. writes a corre-
spondent, was getting quite an old
maid, having reached the age of twen-
ty-eight. Several heather had asked
her, but she refused them ALL One of
our preachers approached country
tenant farmer and tried to persuade
him to ask the twenty-eight-year-o
lady. We all thought 1t would come
of. The man was about the same age
as the lady in question, and had not
yet succeeded in getting engaged. But,
to our surprise, he would have nothing
to do with the plan, and gave as his
reason: "Who would marry girl with
skirt like that?" The girl had her
skirt embroidered in a different way
to the girls and the women in the VII
lage where the particular swain lived,
and he felt that he dared not make
such an innovation on the fashion of
his own village. A beautiful pair Of
brown eyes. long, fine, black hair, and
good Christian character counted as
nothing against strange style of skirt

CHAPTER XVIII
At the Arizona Cave.

1t was dark when opened my eyes
again. Strange. stiff garments were
upon my body; garments that cracked
and powdered away from me as rose
to sitting posture.
1 felt myself over from head to foot
and from head to foot I was clothed,
though when fell unconscious at the
little doorway had been naked. Be
fore me was small patch of moonlit
sky which showed through ragged
aperture.
AS my hands passed over my body
they came In contact with pockets and
in one of these a small parcel of
matches wrapped in oiled paper. One
of these matches I struck, and Its dim
flame lighted up what appeared to be
huge cave, toward the back of which
1 discovered a strange, still figure
huddled over tiny bench. AS I ap-
preached it saw that It was the dead
and mummified remains of little old
woman with long black hair, and the
thing 1t leaned over was small char
coal burner upon which rested a
round copper vessel containing a
small quantity of greenish powder.
Behind her. depending from the roof
upon rawhide thongs, and stretching
entirely across the cave, was row of
human skeletons. From the thong
which held them stretched another to

From Joy to Death.


For ten days the hordes of Thark
entertained, and, then. loaded with
costly presents and escorted by ten
thousand soldiers of Helium command
ed by Mors Kajak, they started on
the return journey to their own lands.
The Jed Of Lesser Helium with small
party of mobiles accompanied them all
the way to Thark to cement more
closely the new bonds of peace and
friendship.
Sola also accompanied Tsrs Tarkas,
her father, who before all his chief
tains had acknowledged her as his
daughter.
Three weeks later, Mors Kajak and
his officers accompanied by Tars Tar
kas and Sola, returned upon battle
ship that had been dispatched to Thark
to fetch them In time for the ceremony
which made Dejah Thoris and John
Carter one.

of the last night as we sat there talk
ing in low tones of the strange ro-
nance which had woven our lives to-
gether and of this wonder which was
coming to augment our happiness and
fulfil our hopes.
In the distance we saw the bright
white light of an approaching airship,
but we attached no special significance
to SO common sight. Like bolt of
lightning It raced toward Helium until
its very speed bespoke the unusual.

There was absolute silence for sew

themselves that they have ever shown
Barsoom how a nation of red men
should live, now is our opportunity to
show them how they should die. Let
us go about our duties as though a
thousand useful years still lay before

The chamber rang with applause
and as there was nothing better to do
thnn to allay the fears of the people
by our example we went our ways
with smiles upon our faces and sorrow
gnawing at our hearts.

but on the morning of the third day
breathing became difficult at the high
er attitudes of the roof tops. The ave-
nues and plazas of Helium were filed
with people. All business had ceased.
For the most part the people looked
bravely into the face of their unalter-
able doom. Here and there, however,
men and women gave way to quiet
grief.
Toward the middle of the day many
of the weaker commenced to succumb

AS it was becoming perceptibly diff

days Of the greatness of Barsoom are

Chicago, March 1s.-Great Britain

with Russia
That was the opinion of leading
bankers and business men of Chicago.
expressed in interviews with the
United Press today.
England will be unable to do much
in the Russian field with the soviet
government in control. according to
David r. Forgan, president of the Ma

on the Russian financial situation and
general unsettled conditions.
No Real Pact With Soviet.
1.-THE United States doesn't need to
get excited about Great Britain max
ing a pact with the soviet" Forgan
said.
Asked if he thought American bust
ness should await a sterilization of
Russia before entering that field. the
banker said the United States never
had extensive commercial dealings
with that country.
They are our competitors" he said.
They produce wheat and other raw
materials. They help feed the world"
Charles Piez, former chairman of
the United States shipping board,
thought the Russian-British trade pact
might give England a slight advantage
but he doubted if America will ever
be a serious competitor in Russia.

Germany has the drop" on the
world in Russian trade. Piez believes.
1.-THE Russians will naturally give
their business to Germany" said Piez.
Germany can undersell the United
States or England. She can make
quicker deliveries and understanding
the Slav better can conduct business
on a much more satisfactory basis
Trade with Russia in the next few
years will be on the primitive barter
and exchange basis, according to Piez.
