Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar By Edgar Bice is the latest and Burroughs best of those famous Tarzan stories that have thrilled millions of readers. Tarzan is one of the WW/ most unique characters ever created in fiction. He is a majestic man, a noble beast, an aristocrat in civilization and a King in the Jangle. Tarzan is the dream man most of us would like to be, and when you surrender yourself to the thrill of his exploits in the damp African jungle you are only yielding to the pull of primitive impulses and in imagination are back again in prehistoric times, swinging from tree to treeingloriousabandon through the primeval forest or fighting the great cave bear with rude stone weapons. Once you have started this gripping tale, a team of horses couldn’t pull you away from it until the last word A is told. OUR NEW |Mk SERIAL J| Read It! Jf#

MEXICAN IDEA OF CREATION

Maya-Qulche Scripture Reeemblee In Marked Degree That Handed Down by Other People*. The true indigenous civilization of Mexico—tile Maya-Qulche, so named from it* foremost peoples, still numerous and robust —has its authentic scripture in the Quiche tongue, the Popol Vuh, unearthed by Padre Xlmenez about 1675, and printed In full, with an interleaved French translation by the Abbe Basseurde Bourbourg in 1865, according to an article by Charles'* Johnston, in the Atlantic monthly. The scripture’s cosmogony begins with universal night—what the Sanskrit Scriptures call the night of Brahma—when darkness was upon the waters. Then~follows the development of worlds, first formed like thin cloud-wreaths in the abyss, and gradually hardening into hills'and plains, under the formative will of “the Creator, the Moul ter,, Heart of the Heavens, Heart of the Earth.” Then beasts and birds are formed. But, although they have voices, they have no articulate speech; they can not Invoke thglr Creator, or call upon the Heart of Heavens In prayer. Therefore the Divine' Powers set themselves to make man, who can pray and praise the Creator, so the Divine Powers may receive adoration from their hapdiwork. Two races are made only to fail; men formed of wet clay, who melt and dissolve, and the minikins, whose hearts are hard and who can not worship. At last a race, Intelligent, reverent, full of a penetratbig wisdom that sees all things in the iraavens as well as on earth, is brought into being. This perfect race renders praise and glory to the Creator.

SPEED OF EPIDEMIC VARIES

Diseases Travel According to the Modes of Transportation in the Regions Afflicted. The speed at which an epidemic—whether It be of influenza or any other infectious disease —spreads de pends upon the rapidity of the usual means of transportation. In his presidential address at the congress of American Physicians and Surgeons, Dr. Simon Flexner said: “In eastern Russia and Turkestan Influenza spreads with the pace of a caravan, In Europe and America with the speed of an expfess train, and in the world at large with the rapidity of an ocean liner; and if one project forward the outcome of the> means of intercommunication of the near future we may predict that the next pandemic, should one arise, will extend with the swiftness of the airship. Moreover. ntft only? Jit this rate of spread determined by the nature of the transportation facilities of the region or the era, but towns and villages, mainland and island, are invaded early or late or preserved entirely from attack according as they lie within or without the, avenues of approach or are protected by inaccessibility, as in instances of remote mountain settlements* and of Islands distant from the ocean lanes or frozen in during winter periods.” x..

Tin Is a mineral the same as iron and lead. It Is not made in the sense that brass is of other metals. The principal countries that supply tin are the East Indies, the Islands of Banca, Billiton and Sumatra, the Malay peninsula, Australia, Bolivia and Cornwall, England. , Most of the ore from the East Indies and the Malay peninsula is obtained by washing alluvial gravels. There are also mines in Saxony, Bohemia, Russia, Spain,' Portugal and Japan, but the total output of these countries is insignificant. The presence of tin depositsin California, Texas, South Dakota, pud North Carolina has been known for a long time, but un to this time there has been no mining on a commercial scale. A

Islanders Pay No Taxes.

Those who have read “Westward Ho!” remember Lundy island, which Ues in the English channel. It is one of the best known of the many island “monarchies” that surround Great Britain. It is a delightful little jewel that was once the haunt of pirates and smugglers. It was once captured* by French pirates, and later fell into the hands of Turkish privateers. While thd island may not be the real paradise of man, it is- actually owned by the Heaven family. A clergyman by that name rides over a kingdom of 1,200 acres and fewer than 500 souls. No one can dwell on< this island without the consent of the owner. It is declared, in the deed from the British crown, to be forever free from taxation. — 4

Ostend Manifesto.

On the eighteenth of October In 18M, the Ostend manfftoto was drawn up. The slavery leader# in the United States were In favor of annexing the island of Cuba. In President Polk's administration >100,000,000 was offered Spain as a purchase price, but refused, President Piercy sent Buehanan, United States minister at Lon Aon, to Ostend to confer on the question with Mason, minister to Paris and r Soule, minister at Madrid. The manifesto of Ostend was the result. This extraordinary document declared that the Union could not be secure unless Cuba was annexed, and, that Cuba, if not annexed, would become Africanixed and “endanger" the United States. The adyent of the Ovil war ended the controversy. --- 7*' .> A- • Z ’ >

CHINESE PARADISE ON EARTH

World Holds No Greater Boon Than Life in the Famous City of Soochow. The Chinaman expresses his opinion of the city of Soochow by murmuring ecstatically, “Oh, that 1 may live to spend my .last days In this paradise, on earth.” Many a Chinaman apparently han had this wish come trde, loathe number of suicides in Soochow Is exceeded only by the number of extremely wealthy and fashionable. The atmosphere of Soo seems to Ifltite the oriental mind either to despair or to ostentatious luxury, according to the state of his finances. x Soochow streets areulways thronged with women displaying the latest Chinese costumes, or out buying new ones, and with the dandles of the other sex, too, gracefully bored unless engaged in the purchase of a new coat. Besides these there are the unfortunate, who cannot enter the real paradise, which Soo offers only to the wealthy seekers of pleasure. The poor mingle In a hazy crowd as an humble background for the fashion parade. Still another type of Soochow is the student burdened with the ambitions of wisdom. The seriousness of the Soo student is well typified in the two Pen pagodas, and the Ink pagoda, so called because a student long ago had them built as/a propitiatory offering to the gods for success in examinations.. The corkscrew-shaped “pens,” pointed at the top, are not particularly penlike to the western eye, but the ink pagoda is very like an odd, made-in-China inkwell, with a curling roof for a top, and its only discrepancy the numerous window’s, which would prevent Its serving as a writing accessory.

LAKE OF MANY ATTRACTIONS

Haruna's Charm Draws Visitors From the.-Most Distant Comers of the Earth. Lake Haruna is one of the most .popular lakes in Japan. It lies in the bowl of a volcano crater long ago ex-, tinct. An invisible watches' over it and there is a temple to the god of fire and the goddess of earth close by. Thus an atmosj here of romance and individuality is created. Not all lakes can boast a crater, a ’ dragon In attendance and a temple so old and so charmingly quaint, set In a grove of ancient trees, behind a gate and bridge of gorgeous red lacquer. Lake Haruna has another charm, displayed only in winter when It is freezing. Then ft is known as the musical lake. As the —water slowly changes into a bed of ice It crackles and hums In tones as musical as the playing qf a fountain. When the led is thick Japanese from the neighborhood and strangers visiting the country come to skate on Lake Haruna, and when the Ice is melted the same Jap* and other strangers come tp fish ’in its depths and drink tea at the tea house on the shore. Lake Haruna is much visited. Those who care nothing for its beauty or the joys of fishing or skating come to pay homage to the goddess of earth and to beg her blessing on their unworthy lands.

How Is Your Hearing?

We are not made so conscious in our ordinary occupations 'of ear deficiency as we are of eye deficiency. Unless you are so deaf as to be a marked man, you can hear the honk of an automobile or the' clang of a street car bell in time to get out of the way; and unless you are so deaf as to be a marked man you can hear the talk of your companions and distinguish they say. As a matter of fact, in* our ordinary, civilized life, the man with normal ears has about three times as much , keenness of hearing as he is called rfbon to nse; whereas, even the man with normal eyes has no such excess of sight keenness. In other words, you’ can get along with less hearing than you actually possess. Therefore, you are not aware of the fact that you may be below normal so far as hearlhg Is concerned. —American Magazine.

Unknown Until Tested.

Some folks are capable of almost infinite possibilities. But the trouble is these possibilities lie too deep to be used, in ordinary life. They respond only 'to the call of the exceptional. The challenge that crushes ordinary mortals puts them in touch with their life work. Washington might have lived and died a community gentleman had be dot been drafted- py dr cumstances to lead a great people to freedom and cement together the elements that have made this a great nation. The name of Lincoln was bound to become known, but it was the cir cumstances of a great cause that have made him the byword for every Amer lean youth. And It often happens that natures that are hard to arouse are capable of the greatest effoft when once fired with a definite purpose. There’s no telling what is In man until you have put him to the test. And only tested men are fit for the highest service. ' 1 ""T
