THE LOST WORLD By Sir Arthur Cor,an Doyle
SYNOPSIS Malone, a London newspaper reporter, rejected by tbe Kiri he loves because he has no heroic deeds to his credit appeals to his editor lor a dangerous assignment and is sent to interview Professor Challenger, who has recently returned from South America with a story of the existence thore of prehistoric animals. Malontt sets out for South America with Professors Summerlee and Challenger and Lord Roxton. well-known explorer. , They reach a high cliff, the outlying picket of the lost world, and climb a detached pinnacle, the only moans of ascending. For a bridge they throw a tree across the abyss which separates them from the main plateau. Their faithful Zambo has not yet crossed whim their bridge goes down. Malone gl/ea Zambo some letlers and an order for rope, to take to the steamboat captain. I>uring Malone’s absence his comrades are captured by ape-men. Lord John escape and tells Malone the apemen intend killing the professors. Malone and Roxton shoot the guards and rescue their comrades and four cave-dwelling Indians. GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER Xlll—Continued Summerlee was sitting up and stuffing some tobeacco into his old briar. “We’ve got to see them safe,” said he. “You’ve pulled us all out of the jaws of death. My word! It was a good bit of work!" “Admirable!” cried Challenger. “Admirable! Not ohly we as individuals, but European science collectively, owe you a deep debt of gratitude for what you have done. T do not hesitate to say that the disappearance of Professor Summerlee and myself would have left an appreciable gap in modern zoological history. Our young friend here and you have done most excellently well.” He beamed at us with the old paternal smile, but European science would have been somewhat amazed could they have seen their chosen child, the hope of the future, his tangled, unkempt head, his fljare chest, and his tattered clothes, ■pe had one of the mea.t-tins between ■is knees, and sat with a large piece Mm cold Australian mutton between gfSi fingers.

I don't wonder. All right, little chap, lie’s only a human, just the same as the rest of us.” "Really, sir!” cried the Professor. “Well, It's lucky for you. Challenger, that you are a little out of the ordinary. If you hadn’t been so like the king ” “Upon my word. Lord John, you allow yourself great latitude.” "Well, it's a fact.” “I beg, sir, that you will change the subject. Your remarks are irrelevant and unintelligible. The i question before us is what are we lto do with these Indians? The ob-

I vious thing is to escort them home, if we knew where their home was.” “There is no difficulty about that,” said I. “They live in the caves on the other side of the central lake.” “Our young friend here knows where they live. I gather that it is some distance.” “A good twenty miles,” said I. Summerlee gave a groan. “I, for one, could never get there. Surely I hear those brutes still howling upon our track.” As he spoke, from the dark recesses of the woods we heard far away the jibbering cry of the apemen. The Indians once more se£ up a feeble wall of fear. “We must move, and move quick!” said Lord John.y- “You help Summerlee, young fellah. These Indians will carry stores. Now, then, come along before they can see us.” In less than half an hour we hal reached our brushwood retreat and concealed ourselves. All day we heard the excited calling of the ape-men In the direction of our old camp, but none of them came our way, and the tired fugitives, red and white, had a long, deep sleep. I was dozing myself In the evening when someone plucked by sleeve, and I found Challenger kneeling beside me. “You keep a diary of these events and you expect eventually to publish it, Mr. Malone,” said he, with solemnity. “I am only here as a Press reporter,” I answered. “Exactly. You may have heard some rather fatuous remarks of Lord John Roxton's which seemed to imply that there was some—some resemblance ” “Yes, I heard them.” “I need not say that any publicity given to such an idea —any levity in your narrative of jyhat occurred—would be exceedingly offensive to me.”
“I will keep well within the truth.” “Doi'd John’s observations are frequently exceedingly fanciful, and he is capable of attributing the most absurd reasons to the respect which is always shown by the most undeveloped races to dignity and character. You follow my meaning?” "Entirely.” “I leave the matter to your discretion.” Then after a long pause, he j added: "The king of the ape-men was really a creature of great dis tlnetion—a most remarkably handsome and Intelligent personality. Did If not strike you?" "A most remarkable creature,” ] said I. And the Professor, much eased in his mind, settled down to his slumber once more. CHAPTER XIV “Those Were the Real Conquests” We all aivoke exhausted after the terrific ' emotions and scanty food of yesterday. Hummerlee was still so weak that it was an effort for him to stand; but the old man was full of a sort of surly courage which would never admit defeat. A council was held, and it was agreed that we should wait quietly for an hour or two where we were, have our much-needed breakfast, and then make our way across the plateau and round the central lake o the caves where my observations had shown that the Indians Lived. We relied upon the fact that we coi ld count upon the good word of those whom we had rescued to ensure a warm welcome from their fellows. Then, with our mission accomplished and possessing a fuller knowledge of the secrets of Maple White Ijand. we should turn our whole thoughts to the vital problem of our escape and return. Even Challenger was ready to admit that w.e should then havo done all for I which he had come, and that our i first duty from that time onwards j was to carry back to civlllzaton the ! amazing discoveries we had made. ! We were able now to take a more leisurely view of the Indians whom we had rescued. They were small men, wiry, active and well-built, with lank black hair tied up in a bunch behind their heads with a leathern thong, and leathern also were their loin clothes. Their faces were hairless, well-formed, and good-humored. The lobes of their ears, hanging ragged and bloody, showed that they had been pierced for some ornaments which their captors had torn out. Their speech, though unintelligible to us, was fluent among themselves, and , lH they pointed to each olher and uttered the word “Accala” many times over, wc- gathered that this was the name of the nation. Occasionally, with faces which were convulsed with fear and hatred, they shook their clenched hands at the woods* round and cried “Doda! Doda!” which was surely their tern, for their enemies. "What do you make of them, Challenger?” asked Dord John. "One thing is very clear to me, and that is that the little chap with the front of his head shaved is a chief among them." It was indeed evident that this man stood apart from the others, and that they never ventured to address him without every sign of deep respect. He seemed to bet the youngest of them all, and yet, so proud and high was his spirit that, upon Challenger laying his great hand upon his head, he started like a spurred horse and, with a quick flash of his dark eyes, moved further away from the professor. Then, placing his hand upon his breast and holding himself with great dignity, he uttered the word “Maretas” several times. The professor, unabashed, seized the nearest Indian by the shoulder and proceeded to lecture upon him as if we were a potted specimen in a classroom. "The type of these people,” said he in his sonorous fashion, "whether judged by cranial capacity, facial angle, or any other test, cannot be regarded as a low one; on the contrary, we must place It as considerably higher In the scale than many South American tribes which I can mention. On no possible supposition can we explain the evolution of such a race In this place. For that matter, so great a gap separates these ape-men from the primitive animals which have survived upon this plateau, that it is inadmissible to think that they could have developed where we find them.” (To Be Continued) (Copyright. 1012, by A. Conan Doyle.)

WEDNESDAY True v ßi< i>'' . Read Dk. 16:1-13. Ttxt: 16:13. No servant can serve two masters Ye cannot serve God and mammon. MEDITATION—In the mind of Jesus there was Just one evil thing about money and that was Its power to stimulate selfish interests. Selfishness is never satisfied. Money may he and should ho a mighty factor in friendliness. One of the great lessons of life In to learn how to use wealth and power unselfishly. We can well believe that God will not trust eternal things to a man who is this life has not learned to use for others whatever he may have of wealth and power. The remedy which will prevent money being a Power of evil Is “to begin to use It, in friendly ways. “All the good and all the evil which exalt or defile a man have their seat within him, In his own character. The coui’s wealth Is the only real weal’.h. Christ’s only injunction in the sphere of economics was Take heed and beware of covetousness’.” PRAYER -Our Father, teach us ways to use the wealth of the world. May it be the servant of thy will. Give us true wealth of soul. May the need of the world inspire us to industry amj thrift that we may he able to help where hlp is needed. In His Name. Amen. (Copyright, 1925—F. L.
