LOVE ON MARS
By JOHN P. MOORE
PART TWO

Leaving the more scientific revelations
to his scientific companions, Mr.. Brent
here goes on to tell US about Captain
Pasog Igan Sto, wealthy young Pragian
bachelor, with whom he became quite
friendly, and who, on the occasion OF
one OF Brent's visits TO his apartment,
told him the story OF Ioane-beautifully
dark Ioane, Ioane the Elusive, Ioane
the Man-hater, the "infant" Of an
Elsian mother and Pragian father.
Some years before, at the end Of the
great Spite War between the two vast
Kingdoms, Captain Sto is walking along
a dark thoroughfare in a deserted part
of the Elsian Kingdom, when from above
a knife falls at his feet. Upon closer
inspection, 1t brings out the fact that
it is of ElSian manufacture. But the
thing tied to its carved handle-ah!-
it is, Enthusiastically, Pragian ring OF
gold, the band of a weaker one, wom-
an.
Sto Jumps to the conclusion that this
IS a sign OF distress, that q woman
of his beloved kingdom is in danger,
and hurries inside and up the spiral
steps of the dark structure, dart gun
drawn.
High above the thoroughfare level
the steps end in darkness and Sto hears
the passionate voice OF a man threat
ening a woman with death if she does
not give in to his advances. He hears
the name Of "Ioane" called and this
stirs his memory, for he, too. has fall
len in love with the beautiful half
breed woman of the eating places.
At q crucial moment Sto batters his
way into the room and finds the wom-
an of his heart confronted by an Ell
sian captain. There follows series
of dramatic clashes. Finally, however,
when Ioane screams and rushes Tor the
door, the enraged Elsian reaches into
his pocket and then hurls something
to the floor Immediately the room fills
with a sort Of gas, and, quite soon, the
three of them are stretched out prone
on the stone foor--an Elsian captain,
a Pragian captain, and a beautiful ere
alton in untamed Marian wornanhood'

doms coursing through her veins

SENSIBLE! SAFE! SURE!

Popular demand changed aspirin
Erom a closely guarded secret of the
medical profession, first compound
led by an obscure country chemist,
until today doctors and public alike
know and have faith in aspirin and
that faith has made aspirin the
Eargest selling medicine in the
6rld. There is one laboratory alone
Memphis, Tenn, which produced
bW,~nine million boxes of pure
aspirin last year and this aspirin,
known the country over as st.
boseph's Pure Aspirin, is sold in
convenient tins for 10c for a dozen
tablets of guaranteed pure aspirin.
Sensible economy and a sure
ness in its purity has directed
thousands to demand only st.
boseph's Pure Aspirin which con-
forms to all government standards.
It is generally known in medical
$eircles that the manufacturers of
Et.Joseph's Pure Aspirin guarantee
THAT it is as pure as money can buy.

s. @. BRENT, well-known 2ist CEN

his impressions of the two vast black
Kingdoms which people the planet OF
Mars, which were discovered by II. S.
Nrner's epoch-making expedition, OF
which Brent was a member, and which
left the earth aboard the eminent scien-
lists amazing ''rocket ship" on the eve
ming Of September 8. A. D. 2o30.
Upon completing the hazardous trip
through vast ethereal spaces, series Of
interesting incidents transpire. First,
the expedition falls into the hands OF
o band of hostile little black, man-like
creatures and they are taken forcibly
TO the Kingdom of Els, which they find
built five hundred feet below the frigid
surface Of the strange planet, the mar
row, crowded thoroughfares being rooted
over with glass-like material to seal
out the cold.

ness; no PROSTATE form of the beau
tifully dark Ioane. Captain Sto
groaned.
He, attempted to raise himself from
his sprawling position on the floor,
but his arms weakened and he
slulnped back with a gasp; and for
minute he lay there, a CHASTITY
feeling at the pit of his stomach, the
stagnant odors of foul chemicals
clinging 20 his nostrils. va! 1t was
as if it all had been deyilish dream!
Then, suddenly driven by thirst
for action, Sto began to crawl. AS
his body moved spasmodically
through the vast blackness it was
all coming back 70 him - about
Ioane; about the fiendish-looking
Elsian captain.
A great anger possessed him. He
didn't feel the biting cold the
stone floor on his hands, or on his
bruised knees. Instead, with a sud-
den start, he became aware that he
was crawling along flush against a
stone wall, and he continued pain
fully onward, like a Pragian air
ship nosing its way through a black
cloud.
One, two, three minutes passed
His hands came into contact with

he must be pretty easy to track IN
his condition" He set his lips grim
ly and sunk the paddle into the dark
water. The movement sent the craft
out into the middle of the stream.
Overhead the sun beat down with
merciless white heat. The raucous,
unmusical cries of brilliantly tinted
tropical birds, the chatter of mon
keys and the dip-dip of the paddle
were the only noises that broke the
silence as the pirogue shot along
the bosom of the sluggishly flowing
river.
Once Northington had stopped
and filled a big calabash that was
rolling about in the bottom of the
craft, with water from the stream.
With this the girl bathed her own
and Ramon's wounds with much Ia
Dor and many pauses for strength.
Now they both lay in a half stupor
of pain and exhaustion on the bot
tom of the boat inadequately shell
tered by the crude awning that
Northington had erected.
Ever and anon the man at the
paddle would stoop and dash hand
fuls of sunwarmed water over his
own face and arms. But this
treatment only seemed to accentuate
the heat. His breath was coming in
painting gasps. Precipitation stream
ed into his eyes and half blinded him.
The rough cloth of the priests hood
chung in damp folds against his
cheeks and rubbed his dripping neck
uncomfortably. His muscles ached
until it seemed that he could not
lift the heavy paddle for another
stroke. His eyes burned with the
terrible heat and from sleeplessness,
but he knew he must keep on.
In the thick tangle of forest and
impossible bush on either side Of
his river path there lurked unknown
dangers from man and beast and
reptile The wounded man and girl
in the pirogue were worse than use
less for help in case of emergency.
Suddenly a faint, long drawn
ululating call seemed to spring from
nowhere and everywhere at once.
1t swelled and died and swelled
again ever nearer and nearer until
the very tree-tops seemed to culver
and respond to it. Then-it ceased
as suddely as 1t began.
Like an answering cry strange
throbbing sound began. 1t beat
through the abrupt stiffness like the
Smothered thump- thump of a giant
heart irregularly spaced n d
strangely agitated.
At the first sound the man and
girl froze into a tensely compelled
attention. When the irregular beat
ing permeated the atmosphere and
seemed to spread and throb from
every point of the compass that at
tention stiffened and appeared to
draw itself together like the concen-

SECOND .NSTALLMENT

John Northington's hand
was stricken into frozen i'm
mobility for a single tense
minute. The next, a wild
eyed, half naked figure
plunged out of the under
growth and dashed, stumb-
ling and moaning inarticulate
cries, directly toward the
watercraft.
The last stumbling leap carried
him into the shallow water separat-
ing the pirogue from the shore.
A great, ugly black head reared
out of the oozing mud as he passed.
Sharp saber teeth clicked, oninous-
| ly. A shred of flying grey-green
cloth was left waying like some sor-
did flag of victory between the mon
strous jaws, as the head sprawied
again into the slime.
The stumbling, plunging inquire
reached the edge of the water, flung
itself in and foundered, painting and
sobbing to the side Of the pirogue.
With torn and bloodstained hands it
gripped the side of the sturdy boat
The paddle in Northington's hands
descended with vicious force. A
sudden lurch spoiled the aim. What
might have beer death blow struck
the half submerged man a smacklng
lick that half turned his head back
and up. The lifted paddle paused
with a Jerk in its descent for the
second blow.
The man who held it uttered an
inarticulate cry and dropped his
weapon onto the bottom of the boat.
With the same movement he stoop-
ed and seized the slipping hands in
firm hold.
A low moan trembled across the
mans lips. He sagged into uncon-
seriousness. With a mighty strain
ing heave John Northington drew
him into the boat. The water closed
with a sinister splash over the spot
where the big black corrugations of
predatory crocodile's body disap-
peared under the sluggish surface.
The girls eyes fluttered open when
a dripping form was dropped be-
side her own. She turned her head
with the quick jerk of reflex fear.
Her eyes blinked and dilated queer
w. as she gazed on the still face.
Blood was oozing slowly from a cut
high up under the hair line. One
arm lay awkwardly limp and twisted
half across the chest.
The girl raised herself Imply onto
her elbow and 18th ragged corner
of her robe attempted to staunch the
oozing blood. Her lips whisperingly
caressed name. Ramon" she
said, and in the word was all the
garnered sweetness of the world OF
human love.
Northington still painting from the
eXertion of a moment before re-
tricved the paddle. do what you
can for him, senorita," he admonish-
ed anxiously. Wed better get
away from here. It's safe bet

TWO SONGS HITS
ARE FEATURED in
CARELESS AGE"
They Are "MelOdy Divine" And "Say
Il With A Solitaire"

Three of the most popular Broad
wav sOng-writers, all of whom are
now under contract to First National
Pictures. Inc, composed the musical
numbers for "The Careless Age,
featuring Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.'
Loretta Young and Carmel Myers,
which comes to the Plaza Theatre
Wednesday and Thursday.
The outstanding songs are Melody
Divine, which is sung by Carmel
Myers, and frivolous ditty entitled
"Say It With a Solitaire"
MELODY Divine" is said to be al
together worthy of its title. The
lvrics were written by Herman Ruby
and the music by Norman Spencer.
1t is romantic; it is yearning; and
the tune has an insidious quality
which makes it linger long in ones
ears even after a single hearing.
The other featured song, Say 1t
With a Solitaire" has a lifting tune
by Ray Perkins, while the words are
by the same Herman Ruby who
shares half the honors of Melody
Divine" This opus strikes severe
ly practical note. Every man l meet
raves about by charms" MARBLES the
Young lady; but such homage is
rather too unsubstantial for her.
"Sav it with a solitaire; say it with
something l can wear"-and so on.
You get the idea.
Perkins, Spencer and Ruby are re-
sponsible for many song hits, and
they are keeping their fine record
up to the highest mark in their con-
tributions to "The Careless Age.
