Barry dangles at the end of 600 feet of rope, He cannot climb back. Holliman thinks Bob has been killed when the rope #lackens, lies limp in his hands, CHAPTER VI Holliman couldn't know, of course, that Bob Barry was safe on the "front porch" of Defiance Custle. : The man above had sensed, rather than actually scon, that something was wrong with his boss. He had seen the two girls: below poiriting excitedly, and too- late it had dawned on him too that this cliff had a dangerous overhang. It would be much big- it appeared - from below he knew; distances are' deceptive that way. When the - rope had acted crazily, swaying and jerking, Holliman deduces --that Bob -was trying to climb back DOUBI up to safety, but had fallen in the attempts Actually Bob had given one final swing and let go--to land on his goal, the rock ledge that « held the dwelling. Other troubles were ahead--such as the way to get back down to camp again -- but tor the moment he was safe. He had done an acrobatic stunt' which he himself would have call- ed crazy under most circumstanc- es. He had literally been a dar- ing young man on a mountain tra- peze, but it was by no means what he had 'planned. "RI "What I need," he grinned to himself as he sat there panting, "js a double, if I'm going in' for movie stunts." He was a' little ashgmed of himself for getting in such a difficulty; a man with a doctorate degree is supposed to think things out in advance. And yet---the youth in him was a little proud too. He looked down to see both girls waving at- him, ° "ALL RIGHT!" he "Sorry to frighten you!" He couldn't catch their answer, but he did hear Hades Jones, who was directly at the base of the iff now, "You dang young fool, ought to lift yore SCALP!" 'Hades never was one given to gentleness, "Ain't theo got no sense?" - yelled. we'd Inside The Castle "NO! yelled Bob, agreeably. "Figure out a way for me to get down, Uncle Hades." He couldn't hear Hades any more, and he didn't need to. He could well imagine the mouthing the old man was doing. He shout- ed down for' Hades to #0 after Holliman, . . Getting down didn't prove half the task Bob at first feared it, might, First, .thdugh, he made a hasty survey of Defiance Castle-- he wouldn't have missed that even if he rotted on the ledge later, He. found 19 rooms in the place, and crumbled walls of what must have been six or eight more, The rooms were invariably small, 'about 8 by Slow Burnin CIGARETTE PA AUTOMATIC BOOKLET 110 feet in most cases; obviously i there had been many occupants, [Fand space was precious, There were no windows. Doors were less than four feet high, "More pygmies," Bob mutter- ed, smiling, = That was an old mistake, he knew; the ancient people made low doors for defense. Enemies might rush a six-foot door and take a fortress, but they would have to stoop to enter a low one; one squaw inside with a club could thus defend it. He saw an abundance of shards, and many unbroken bowls and storage jars. Several weapons were in evidence, also fireplaces, bits of wooed, even charred corn- cobs which he knew to be cen- turies old. Partly wrapped in a shroud woven of grass fibers, now decayed, was the dried shrunken ° mummy of an old man. Strange sketches and designs were etch- ed on ceilings and walls, cut there by very early American artists when time was abundant if skill was. .not. Bob wandered, enthralled, as long as he dared. He realized his obligation to his associates, and so- reappeared after half an hour on the outside Or eastern cdge of the great rock lip.. He gave thought to getting out safely. EE IE Beyond! Reach The rope was' beyond reach-- so far that he wondered now how he had ever swung far enough to leap into the cave. He still could see no possible means of entrance or egress, unless a series of six or cight long ladders, supplement. ed by chiseled finger: and toe holds, - were - placed on the. face . of the cliff. There were some nat- ural steps and footholds; never- theless Defiance Castle was | tte most impregnable of all the cliff fortresses he had ever seen, he knew, When he was" sure that no oth- er means offered, Bob did a sim- ple thing. He grinned to himself as he worked. "I'll look like a real cave man when I descend," he told himself. He wondered what Hades Jones would say then. With his 'pocket knife, he cut and tore his shirt, handkerchief, trouser legs and undershirt into small strings and tied their ends together. He let this long string down to Mary Melissa_and Honey Bee Girl, then pulled up a small rope which they tied to the string. With the small rope he then pull- ed up a stronger one," It took time, but it was easy. He knotted the big rope at fre- quent intervals, for "steps," and himself was back in camp soon after Hades Jones returned with i Holliman, The talk was very pro- fuse all around, for a while, save for Honey Bee. When food had been served, and the work of building a more" permanent camp started, Honey Bee approached Bob alone, just outside the supply tent. i "I cried when you were up there," she simpered, rather sur- prisingly. Mary Melissa overheard it. She was inside the supply tent, but obviously the Indian girl didn't know. iloney Bee's inflectiyn was one of secrecy, of deliberate intimacy. In the. Indian's background, aec- tions were direct; one took what one wanted, one said what one thought, let the results be as they may. «0 . _+ She Couldn't Be Logical Mary Melissa caught the in- tent in a flash, realized in that instant that Honey Bee was 'in love with Robert Barry. The thought astounded her. "You -- you -mean--1" Bob missed it. "Aw, that's 'all right, . Honey Bee, Don't. worry about - 'me, But I'm sorry I frightened you girls, Certainly I don't want to scare the best cook I ever had." He felt that some sort of pat- . on-the-batk would calm matters, Atier all, he had acted rather foolishly. He didn't see that Honey 'Bee Was offering. herself to him, with her eyes, her atti- | tude, her: desire." Sho was still n servant in his sight, 4 rather pret- ty Shild who must. be kidded Moke 'Melissa remained quiet ng oy: moved 'away. Best not. I | Adams, Room reveal - that "she had sverieard, even by accident, so personal a bit of conversation. The thing had. upset her greatly, That, on top of the excitement when Bob was. in danger, served doubly to un- nerve her, She realized, though, that all this was none of her affair, that this was a buginess trip in the interest of science, and from her standpoint a vacation from the hectic and somewhat stifling rou- tine. of society in' the mon€yed 'East. What if 'the red girl did throw herself at Dr, Barry? Mary Melissa was doing hér best to philosophize, to be logical. But it wouldn't work. Logle wasn't the answer, Her toyes fill- ed with uninvited tears, and a sob came, She got up hastily then, to 'go aud look for old Hades Jones, She must talk to somebody, The white girl's chin was set, . and her eyes were strangely hard, as she walked away. She Knew there was just one thing in all the world -she wanted, and meant to have it, (To Be Continued) Rug - Cleaning Here Are A Few Important Tips That Will Lead to Long er Life for Your Rugs Rug labels that give complete instructions for cleaning are sometimes hard to find, but here are a few important tips: Use your vacuum cleaner once a day on traveled areas; give the rug a complete vacuuming once a week without fail in any case. Daily vacuuming, is better for any floor-covering, as a matter of fact. Sweéping usually drives more dirt intp the rug than it takes out. Vacuum a rug in the direction of the pile. If you wish, brush the pile lightly when "you have fin- ished, so it will all lie, in one .i- rection. , Never beat a rug. This may snap the base fibres and surely will shorten the life of the floor- covering. Methodical vacuuming is the recipe for rug and carpet long- evity.

CHAMBERS Fa SPRING TRIFLES '" In the early spring days 5 the appetite seems to be lagging and the homemaker 'extfa busy, there is perhaps a greater demand than ever for attractive desserts, Pineapples are now appearing and they always put up a rigid chale "lenge for an all-season favorite. They have an incomparable flavor and an. aromatic "air," which helps them wend their way into the highways and byways of near ly all type of menus, especially when something that is different is sought, Just one thing abont pineapple: remember that fresh pineapple cannot be mixed suc cessfully with gelatine unless it .has been previously cooked. One of the acids of pineapple, uncook- ed, destroys proteins,--hence the result. However, do no allow this to discourage you, for fresh pine- apple cooked does have a fresher taste, different from the fruit we have stored.
