orders his arrest. Ross hears of his
treachery and flees. He is ambushed,
however, and after a desperate battle,
takes refuge In a tree. The natives
having no guns and the lieutenant no
ammunition, the natives find it an
easy task to cut down the tree and
carry their quarry in safety to the
camp.
Sentenced to he burned alive, the
Ingots are idled high In the center of
the village. The chief, bemoaning k
deathly sickness which prevents him
from enjoying the spectacle to the ut
termost, watches the preparations
from his hut. After the fagots are
lighted, the chief Is taken with a vio
lent coughing spell. The quick-witted
lieutenant secs Ills opportunity. "Free
me." he cries, "and I will save the
life of your chief." From above the
roar of the flames, the chief hears.
Ross Is freed and the sentence tem
porarily revoked.
In the days of idleness that follow,
the village is agatn visited by the
dreaded tiger. Ross is asked to de
spatch him and sets off Into the Jun
gle. Stationing himself iq a clearing
thb lieutenant cocks his rifle and pa
tiently waits while the tribesmen beat
the tiger into sight. In a few min
utes, tile great head of the beast is
seen coming through the underbrush.
A second later and a majestic Rengal
tiger crouches boldly in the clearing,
head down, tail switching, nostrils ex
panded, ready for the fatal spring!
Then suddenly the beautiful body hur
tles through the air while the silence
is punctuated by the sharp crack of a
rifle. There is an Instant's hush and
tlie great beast strtkes the earth and<
twists In a mortal agony. Ten min-,
utes after, a delighted hand of na
tives triumphantly throw over the
elephant’s back a wet but beautiful
tiger skin.
l’leased with his Ross pushes
on Into the Jungle. Another graceful
tlßer falls before his deadly aim and
another skin marks the trophy of the
chase.
These exploits win him the lov@ of
Sarama, the chiefs daughter. Finding
hts position hard to bear, Ross sees
hts way clour to leap upon a horse
and gallop madly from the village In
the forlorn hope of escaping The j
ever-watohful Sarama gives tmmedl- :
ate chase. She leaps from her horse
to hts own while traveling at break

soon find* himself upon the ground,
strugj ing frantically to break hot
hold. This he finally succeed* In do

Closely pursued, the white man de

the underbrush and climb* Into ths
lower limbs of a gtanl tree from where
he observes a single native riding
madly toward him. Then a singular

In the boggy mire of a rice field.
Meanwhile, many strange things are
happening to his wife, Marie. Aftee>
making fruitless inquiries for news
of her absent husband, she. with her
daughter, Elsie, take passage on a
liner bound for Calcutta. Elsie makes
friends with the old boatswain, "Tom."
and one day come sthat dreaded cry
at sea, “File!” In a moment the ves
sel is wrapped in flames. The pas
sengers plunge head-foremost Into the
water and only Elsie and her mother
remain on board. They too, are final
ly compelled by the scorching heat, to
follow te rehst. Old Tom puts a sup
porting arm under Elsie; they are
hauled Into a life-boat, and. some days
later, are deposited at an English sta
tion on the edge of the jungle. De
termined to find her missing husband,
Marie, with Tcni and Elsie for com
pany, plunge boldly into the jungle.
After many weary days of adventure,
they are taken captive into the same
village in which Ross languishes a
prisoner.
A happy reunion follows, tinctured
by sadness at their mutual plight.
Sarama, now rendered insanely jeal
ous, plots a diabolical revenge. She
Is aided in her plan by the depreda
tions of another tiger.
This time, it is determined to cap
ture the man-eater alive. A pit is dvyr
and covered by a stout net. A tiny
ktd is tied to a stake and all is in
readiness. That night the tiger peers
cautiously from ttys underbrush,
greedily eyes the dainty morsel at tho
slake, springs, sinks, nnd Is caught in
the meshes of the net. The prisoner
is raised next morning and securely
confined in a close-by corral.
Intent upon her hideous scheme. Sa
rama waits until Elsie Is alone in the
hut adjoining the corral. Then she
opens the hlg gate and the man-eater
dashes through the open door Into the
hut. Hut not too quick for old Tom.
Seeing his beloved girl In danger, he
fires with lightning-like rapidity and
the beast drops dead at Elsie's feet.
This experience causes Ross to for
mulate a plan for immediate flight.
That night he secretly constructs dum
mies to resemble each one in his party.
Strapping these to the backs of horses,
he start* them Into the Jungle. An
exciting chase by the natives follows,
leaving Ross and hts party to escape
in peace and safety.
Several weeks later they are re
ceived at the English village from
which Marie had gone into the jungle.

SCHNEIDER’S
SCALY RINGWORM
ON FACEJO HEAD
Kept Spreading, Itching and Burn
ing, Hair Fell Out. Disfigured
Very Much. Cuticura Soap and
Ointment Cured.
R. F. D. No. 1, Poc&hontM, Tenn.—
*‘l took something resembling ringworm
and thought it would soon get well but it
just kept spreading until 11
l>egan to. look serious. It
first appeared on my face as
a small spot itching and burn
ing and It gradually spread
until it got over my face and
head Wherever it went it
would leave the skin with
white scales. I wae compelled
to scratch and that irritated
the sldn. Mr hair fell out gradually and
looked dead. 1 wan disfigured very much
and I certainly got tired of people asking me
what was the matter with my face. I lost
a good many nights' sleep. The disease
got so far along it didn't look like ringworm.
This frightened me. They said it was bar
ber's Itch.
“I was advised to use which
would stop it, but on the outside of the
ring it would soon appear again leaving the
sldn rough and scaly. I was given treat
ment but it did not do any good. Then I
began using Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
washing with the Cuticura Soap then ap
plying the Cuticura Ointment three and four
times a day and at night. In a little lese
than two weeks I was cured of that skin
trouble.'' (Signed) W. H. Nall, Junes, 1913.
