Nothing remarkable about bear" laughed Gridley.
"There was great deal that was remarkable about
this bear" replied the other. It was as large
OK. If I going after bear in this country, I'd
take along field artillery And saw tigers-a score
of them enormous things, armed with great curved
fangs extending from their upper Jaws. They came
down to the stream here to drink, and then
'dered away"

When Jason Gridley heard that Tarzan had left
the ship he was not at first concerned even though
surprised that the ape-man had chosen to go un-
armed save for his primitive jungle weapons. Grid
ley had perfect confidence in Tarzans ability to
cope with any situation. But the officer who had
seen him depart was of different mind II have
seen some things since have been on watch, sir,
that make doubt whether any man can take care
of himself alone in this world What do you
mean" demanded Gridley. What have you SEEM"

Bear and tigers were bad enough" continued Dorf
"but saw another creature Infinitely worsei" AS
he spoke there was wild shrek and the colored
cook came running toward them, yelling: Look on
the sky Massa Gridley! Lordy have mercy mel"
The men ran to the port side, where they heard q
whirring sound Flying directly over the ship was an
immense winged reptile. AS they watched its horrd
form it swooped to earth and rose, carrying in
its talons sheep-sized animal and few away with

While Tarzan awaited death in the shape Of the
saber-tooth tiger of Pellucidar back on the giant
airship several things had happened to make the
men realize they had, indeed, discovered weird
land Most of the exhausted men had slept the
clock around. When they came on deck, every
watch and clock showed that the time was near mid
night. Yet it was bright as July noon. The sun
of Pellucidar had not moved an inch from zenith.
It was uncanny a land without stars moon or
the dark restfulness of NIGHT.

Tells How To Get Rid of
Rheumatism in 48 Hours

continues to penetrate further and
further into the joints and tendons
leaving deposits so deep seated that
they cannot be reached-this often
means that the takers Of drugs for
relief only are disabled for life.
If every person who is afflicted
with rheumatic manifestations would
start at once to get the uric acid
out of the blood-it would perhaps
mean the avoidance of crippled
joints in years to come.
This can be done by taking one
tablespoonful of Allenru three
times a day-Allenru acts on the
blood and drives from it the uric
acid that causes your rheumatic
agony. and does it in 4S hours.
You can get a generous bottle Of
Alenru at Peoples or any progress
sive druggist for IS cents-take with
every assurance that it is a real enemy
of uric acid-and of rheumatic con-
ditions-and hear in mind If it doesn't t
do as advertised back. AL
lenru is inst good for sCiatiCa.

SOVIET FLOODS
STRAND MANY
At M|NSK
MoSkva River mandates the
Outskirts Of Moscow; Town
Without Light and Water

MOSCOW, April 23.-The CEN
trail section of Moscow was
threatened today by unprece-
dented floods which already have
rendered thousands of persons
homeless at Minsk. one of the
largest cities of the Soviet Union.
Some streets in the central
district of the capital were under
water by noon and boats were
being held in readiness to rescue
marooned foreign residents.
Boats Stand By
Four small boats equipped with
Oarsmen were standing by to take
the British embassy staff to "dry
land" If the waters continue to
rise, while three boats were sta
toned outside the International
News Service Bureau.
The floods we're caused by tor
rental rains. The MoskVa River
was rising steadily, inundating
the outskirts of Moscow to con-
siderable depth, despite the ef-
forts of authorities to stem the
tide by throwing up bulWarks
along the rivers edge.
City without Light
The situation at MinSk was re-
ported extremely serious. The en-
tire city was without light, the
floods having short-circuited cleo
trio power, and water mains were
