dinner time comes two hours before
you expected It. To sit with your
Livy before you and hear the geese
cackling that save the capital, and to
see with your own eyes the Carthagin-

the Roman knights after the battle OF
Cannae and heaping them into
bushels; and to be so intimately pres
ent at the actions you are reading of
that when anyone knocks at the door
it will take you two or three seconds
to determine whether you are In your

COURAGE OF s.aMURAI TESTED
Boy of Twelve Forced to Show He
Was Not Afraid of Death by
His Own Hand.

Sato told US stories-the young man
who wanted the sword that he might
disembowel the Russians and not have
to bite their threats In the hand-to-
hand fighting.
Then the story Of the samurai boy
who must once in his life face death
make up his mind that he is to die.
His own case, at the age Of twelve,
coming home from school, to find his
great uncle and his mother all seri-
GUS, naked sword on little wooden
rack, the house all In order.
To be told that he had disgraced the
family, he had dishonored his fathers
sword and killed dog. He would be
given the privilege Of committing hara-
kiri, for he was samurai's son.
His great uncle gave him an object
lesson, showed him how 1t was Gone
and told him to proceed, wrapping the
blade In paper, that 1t might not cut
his hand, and telling him that he must
do as he had seen his great uncle do,
IN earnes..-
Inc boy begged Tor mercy. his k1nS-
man and his mother were immovable.
Was he afraid to die? If so, they
might help him, and the uncle put his
hand on his sword.
The boys tears stopped. He knew
his time had come and bowed. He
opened his dress, rubbed his abdomen
three times. He put out his hand and
grasped the sword. He knew no more
till a cry of Mate" (Stop) brought him
to bis senses.
The reprieye at last. An instant
more and he would have been dead by
his own hand. He waited, dazed in a
death sweat His courage had been
tested. He had faced death.-Asis

Kantos Kan eyed me narrowly be-
fore he spoke.
"You love herT' he said. "Does she
know it?"
'She knows 1t, Kantos Kan, and re-
pulses me only because she is prom
ised to Sab Than"
The splendid fellow sprang to his
feet and, grasping me by the Shout
der, raised his sword on high, ex-
claiming:
"And had the choice been left to me
I could not have chosen more fitting
mate for the first princess of Barsoom.
Here is my hand upon your shoulder,
John Carter, and my word that Sab
Than shall go out at the point of my
sword for the sake of my love for
Helium, for Dejah Thoris, and for you.

matter how well they speak of Edge
worth, no matter how good are the
smokers stories they tel us about
Mark Twain and others-unless the
writers happen TO say that they are
willing to have said letters published.
We've heard quite number Of good
stories about pipe smokers, but there
must be lot we haven't heard.
You may know some stories that
others would enjoy reading in this
column.
Probably they're worth samples Of
Edgeworth in both forms-Plug Slice
and Ready-Rubbed.
In any case, we'll send you samples,
whether you have good story to tell
us or not.
Edgeworth Plug Slice is shaped into
fat, oblong cakes. Through these
cakes keen knives are run that cut
them into thin slices In its box it ap-
pears solid cake, but each slice sepa-
rates easily from the cake and when
rubbed between the hands furnishes
an average pipeload.
Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed is ex-
actly the same as Plug Slice, except
that it is rubbed up before packing.
Both kinds pack so well that they
light quickly and burn evenly to the
bottom of your pipe.
Edgeworth is sold in various sizes to
suit the needs and means of all pur-
chasers. Both Edgeworth Plug Slice
and Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed are
packed IN small, pocket-size packages,
in handsome tin humidors, and glass
jars, and also in various handy in
between quantities.
We will send you samples of both
kinds, postpaid.

out, both my machine and Kantos
Kan's. Making his fast behind mine I
started my engine. and skimming over
the edge Of the roof dove down into
the streets Of the city far below the
plane usually occupied by the air pa
troll. In less than minute was set
tiing safely upon the roof of our apart
ment beside the astonished Kantos
Kan.
1t was decided that was to try to
make Helium, while Kantos Kan was
to enter the palace and dispatch Sab
Than. If successful he was then to
follow me- Bidding each other fare
well we rose together and sped in the
direction of the palace, which lay in
the route which must take to reach
Helium.
As we neared the high tower pa
troll shot down from above. throwing
its piercing searchlight full upon my
craft, and voice roared out COM
mand to halt, following with shot as
paid no attention to the hail. Kantos
Kan dropped quickly into the dark
ness, while I rose steadily and at ter
rife speed raced through the Marian
sky followed by a dozen of the air
scout craft<which had joined the pur-
suit, and later by swift cruiser car
rying hundred men and battery OF
rapid-fire guns. By twisting and turn
ing my little machine, now rising and
now falling, managed to elude their
searchlights most Of the time, but

tics, and so / decided to hazard every
thing on a straight-away course and

Of my machine.
Kantos Kan had shown me trick
of gearing, which is known only to the
navy of Helium, that greatly increased
the speed of our machines, so that
felt sure I could distance my pursuers
If 1 could dodge their projectiles for
a few moments.
Gradually left my pursuers further
and further behind, and I was just con.
graduating myself on my lucky escape,
when a well-directed shot from the
cruiser exploded at the PROV Of my
little craft. The concussion nearly
capsized her, and with sickening
plunge she hurtled downward through

mails below me. Rising again, !
scanned the heavens for my pursuers.
and finally making out their lights far
behind me, saw that they were land
ing, evidently in search of me.
Not until their lights were no longer
diseernible did 1 venture to fash my
little lamp upon my compass, and then
I found to my CONSERVATION that a
fragment Of the prOjectile had utterly
destroyed my only guide, as well as
my speedometer. 1t was true could
follow the stars in the general direc-
ton Of Helium, but without knowing
the exact location Of the city or the
speed at which was travelling my
chances for finding 1t were slim.
