THE LOST WORLD By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

SYNOPSIS \ Malone, a London newspaper reporter, rejected by the girl he loves because he has no heroic deeds to his cvredit, appeals to his editor for a dangerous assignment and is sent to interview Professor Challenger, who has recently returned from South America with a story of the existence there of prehistoric animals. Malone gets out for South America with Professors Summer I(A 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 means of ascending. For a bridge they throw a tree across the abyss which separates them from the main platpau. Their flutbiul Zambo has not yet crossed when their bridge goes down. Malone gives Zambo some letters and an order for rope to take to the steamboat captain. During Malone's absence his comrades are captured by ape-men. Lord John escapes an dtelle Malone the ape-men intend killing the professor. Malone and Roxton shoot the guards and rescue their comrades and four cavedwelling Indians, whom the explorers return to their people. The old Indian chief welcomes them and his returned son and it is decided that the whole Indian army go at once in pursuit of the ape-men. GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XIV (Continued) Summerlee had lain down and slept upon the sand, but we others roamed round the edge of the water, seeking to learn something more of this strange country., Twice we found pits of blue clay, such as we had already seen In the swamp of the pterodactyls. These were old volcanic vents, and for some reason excited the greatest interest in Lord John. What attracted Challenger, on the other hand, was a bubbling, gurgling mud geyser, where some strange gas formed great bursting bubbles upon the surface. He thrust a hollow reed into it and cried out with delight that a schoolboy when he was able, on touching it wiln a lighted match, to cause a sharp explosion and a blue flame at the far end of the tube. Still more pleased was he when, inverting a leathern pouch over the end of the reed, and so filling it with the gas, he was able to send It soaring up Into the air. “An inflammable gas, and one markedly lighter than the atmosphere. I should say beyond doubt that it contained a considerable proportion of free hydrogen. The resources of G. E. C. are not yet exhausted, my young friend. I may yet show you how a great mind molds all nature to its use.” He swelled with some secret purpose, but would say no more. Out upon the rose-tinted waters of the central lake great slate-colored backs and high serrated dorsal fins shot up with a fringe of silver, and then rolled down into the depths again. The sand-banks far out were ■potted with uncouth crawling forms, huge turtles, strange saurlans and one great flat creature like a writhing, palpitating mat of black, greasy leather, which flopped its way slowly to the lake. Here and there high serpent heads projected out of the water, cutting swiftly through it with a little collar of foam in front, and a long, swirling wake behind, rising and falling In graceful, swanlike undulations as they went. It QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION Get Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tablets. the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, n practicing physician for 17 years and calomel's old-time enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, but a healing, soothing vegetable laxative. No griping is the “keynote” of these little sugar-coated, olive-eoloved tablets. They cause the bowels and liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a “dark brown mouth” — bad breath —a dull, tired feeling—sick headache—torpid liver constipation, you'll find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets at bedtime. Thousands take them every night just to keep right. Try them. 15c and 30c. —Advert isement.

was not until one of these creatures wriggled on to a sand bank within a few hundred yards of us. and exposed a barrel-shaped body and huge flippers behind the long serpent neck, that Challenger and Summerlee, who had joined us, broke out into their duet of wonder and admiration. “Plesiosaurus! A fresh water plesiosaurus!” cried Summerlee. “That I should have lived to see such a sight! We are blessed, my dear Chmallenger, above all zoologists since the world began!” It was not until the night had fallen and the fires of our savage allies glowed red in the shadows that our two men of science could be dragged away from the fascinations of that primeval lake. At earliest dawn our camp was astir and an hour later we had started upon our memorable expedition. A fringe of scouts was thrown out in fi'Ont, and behind them the whole force in a solM column made their way up the long slope of the bush country until we were near the edge of the forest. Here they spread out into a long straggling line of spearmen and bowmen. Roxton and Eummerlee took their position upon the right flank, while Challenger and I were on the left. We had not long to wait for our enemy. A wild shrill clamor rose from the edge of the wood and suddenly a body of ape-men rushed out with clubs and stones and made for the center of the Indian line. It was a valiant move but a foolish one for the great bandy-legged creatures were slow of foot, while their opponents were as active as cats. It was horrible to see the fierce brutes with foaming mouths and glaring eyes, rushing and grasping, but forever missing their elusive enemies, whi e arrow after arrow buried itself ii their hides. One great fellow' ran past me roaring with pain, with a dozen darts sticking from his chest and ribs. In mercy I put a bullet through his skull, and he fell sprawling among the aloes. But this was the only shot fired, for the attack had been on the center of the line, and the Indians there had needed no help of ours in repulsing it. Os all the ape-men who had rushed out into the open. I do not think that one got back to cover. But the matter was more deadly when we came among the trees. For an hour or more after we entered the wood, there was a desperate struggle in which for a time we hardly held our own. Springing out from among the scrub the apemen with huge clubs broke in upon the Indians and often felled three or four before they could be speared. Their frightful blows shattered everything upon which they fell. One of them knocked Summerlee’s rifle to matchwood and the next would have crushed his skull had an Indian not Stabbed the beast to the heart. Other ape-men in the trees above us hurled down stones and logs of wood, occasionally dropping bodily on to our ranks and fighting furiously until they were felled. Once our allies broke under the pressure, and had it not ,been for the execution done by our rifles they would certainly have taken to their heels. But they were gallantly rallied by their old chief and came-on with such a rush that the ape-man began in turn to give way. Summerlee was weaponless, but I was emptying my magazine as quick us I could fire, and on the further flank we heard the continuous cracking of our companions' rifles. Then in a moment came the panic and the collapse. Screaming and howling, the great creatures rushed away in all directions through the brushwood, while our allies yelled in their savage delight, following swiftly after their flying enemies. Fly as they would the fugitives were too slow to escape from the active savages, and from every side in the tangled woods we hoard the exultant yells, the twanging of bows, and the crash and thud as ape-men were brought down from their hiding-places in the trees. I was following the others, when I found that Lord John and Challenger had come across to join us. "It’s over,” said Lord John. “I think we can leave the tidying up to them. Perhaps the less we see of it the better we shall sleep.” Challenger’s eyes were shining with the lust of slaughter. “We have been privileged,” he cried, strutting about like a gamecock, "to be present at one rtf the typical decisive battles of history, upon this plateau the future must ever be for man.” (To be continued) (Copyright, 1925, by A.

draper Daily Lenten Bible reading and meditation prepared for Commislon on Evangelism of Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America.

SATURDAY Salvation Through Christ Read Lk. 19:1-10. Text: 19:10. Foe the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost. MEDITATION—How did Jesus save men? His method Is illustrated f.gain and again In the record of his life. He went to a man who was “lost.” He invited the man to anew way of living: and offered himself as a leader. Jesus made no demand, but for true repentance, and an acceptance of l.lmself as Lord and Master. "The one thing that has value was the straightforward acceptance of that gift of new life which Christ offered and ever offers to those who will fake It in their hands. And it is this gift of new life freely offered and freely received which brings renewed character and filial relation In the family of the Father.” "It is hot so much the teachings of Jesus that accounts for his Influence In the world. It Is JESUS HIMSELF. PRAYER—O Christ, our Saviour, we would that we might have Thy forgiveness. We repent of our sins, blot them out and let them have dominion over us no more. May we rejoice in Thy love as flowers in the sun. Let the music of the celestial choir be e\er In our ears that our hearts may be lifted up. Amen. (Copyright, 1925 —F. L. Fagley)

OUT OUR WAY—By WILLIAMS

Biting Fish Call Fishpoles Out Old Eagle Creek, Near Zionsville, Is Favorite Spot.

Fish are said to be biting their heads off in old Eagle Creek, In the vicinity of Zlonsvllle, these days and everybody from old man Cush to Ills well-known grandson, Nimrod, Is talking about it. State Rd. 15, running northwest of Indianapolis, Is the route and takes you directly to one of the best fishing spots within an hour’s drive from tho city. Throne of the numerous gravel pits a mile or so north of Zlonsville and you are bound to catch something. Fill your pail with an assortment of lively minnows, averaging about an inch and a half In length, and the crappies will take notice. For crappie fishing the best equipment Is an ordinary cane pole, a fairly strong line pnd a float. Hook the mlnow through the lower jaw and allow him to play within a couple of feet of the bed. When your fish has held the /float under a few seconds, gaff him and he’s,yours. Sunflsli, goggle-eyes, cattish and black suckers are biting too, it is reported. The float is not necessary for these fish, but may be used. Use
