March, only slightly wounded, ntnrts back to summon tho aviators, but drops from exhaustion. lie sees North flying on high and calls him to earth. North takes him In tho machine and they land on tho mountain plateau. CHAPTER XIV Continued. In tho deathlike stillness tho whis per of North Bounded thin and shrill hb thoy drew their weapons. "Wo will Jtcop ahout fifty yards npart, yot al ways In each other's sight. Watch mo closely for signals nnd I will do tho sntio hy you. Now como." Slow ly they advanced, scanning each pos ulblo place of retreat and choosing tholr way with tho lnllnlto caution of prowlers who traverse a corridor In tho darkness of midnight. In tho tension of his suspense March dould not feel his heart pounding heavily. Tho wolrdness of tho placo was upon them with Us spell, Its stlcnco throb lilng In tholr straining oars, its chaos Infernal In Its hideous desolation. To ono side and bolow them was a thou Band foot, so nonrly sheer down that ono might have almost tossed a peb bio into it, glinted tho stool bluo wa ters of Lalto Talo, tho crater lalto of immeasurable depth, that lay amidst -this solltudo a dozen thousand fcot above tho lovol of tho sea. Then March, whoso eyes were every where, saw North abruptly Btop, recoil and then bockon to him to come by a wavo of his hand. Even across tho illBtanco that soparatod thorn ho could iico tho pallor that had swept over his frlond'a sun-browned fac'o, nnd nick with fear at tho unknown horror With nn Involuntary Cry Ho Bounded Forward. Iio must now look upon ho passed quickly to IiIb side. Tho aviator wa3 pointing nt an objoct which lay closo lioforo him. March, looking ulso, felt Ills blood turn to Ico. "A eight llko that Is about tho only Uiing that gctB my norvo," whispered tho othu'r a ho blottod his damp foro Iicad with a hand that shook despite Ills efforts to control it. "I have soon too many of my good frlonds lying llko that. It inakoa mo think what I will look liko ono of thoso days if 1 ou't get out of this cursed busluoss. ut wo will como back and take euro lot him later. Just nt prcBont wo have a woman to look aftor. Lord I IIo niUBt have fallen a thousand feet." Five minutes later Alan, moving "with tho stealth of -a mountain lion, saw something that brought his heart Haryy Irving Grcono to his thront. Doris, huddled ngalnst a rock, her faco in hor hands, was within n hundred fcot of him. With an Involuntary cry and thoughtless of all eleo except thnt he had found her, ho boundod forward. Sho hoard him coming, shrank convulsively back against tho rock with a tcry of dis tress, then raising her hollow eyes saw who It was and springing to her foot atood swaying with hands out stretched. Another Instant and ho had caught her In his nrms, "Doris I" ho cried fiercely nB he strained her to him, searching her wan faco nnd sunken eyes,' Sho shud dered, clung to him closer, seemed about to loso her senses, then raising her faco to his, smiled. CHAPTER XV. Tho Rescue. North camo up on n run. "Thank tho Lord," ho exclaimed huskily. "I feel llko falling upon my knees and worshiping." Ever nlort as a weasel, ho looked upon all sides and upward. "Whero is ho now?" ho demanded. Sho shook her head. "I do not know. Ho left an hour ago creeping nwny among tho rocks. Ho goes and comes as silently as a shadow. Always ho Bcems to be upon tho watch, by night as well as hy day. I doubt if ho over Bleops." Sho looked at Alan's torn garments, bloodstained faco and lacerated hands. "Oh, It is too bad, too horrlblo! And Clay" Sho shuddered and covered her faco with hor palms. "I think I lost my senses for n tlmo last night when that torrlblo thing happoncd. Ho Boomed to bo falling for hours. Take mo away from thla placo of hldeousnes3." North, pacing restlessly about, frowned. "Guess wo will all havo to wait here abouts until wo havo located this game of oura. For all wo know, he may bo roosting nomowhero about and waiting for us to set sail. I daro not take you aboard until I know that ho is not In a position to Interfere Ho hns given mo a few illustrations of what ho can do in tho flying line when he wants to and neither havo I for gotten poor Putnam aB yet." Tho wis dom of his position could not be con troverted. DorlB miiBt not bo risked In tho downward flight until tho en emy wub either rendered harmless or driven afar. Thoy must wait. nrlofly sho told them of her ordoal. Following tho fearful shock of finding horsolf homo upward by him had on sued a condition of unconsciousness with brief spelU of reason regained, wherein bIio saw them running and falling ns thoy struggled on bolow In tholr pursuit, intermitted by blnnk periods until nt last sho awakened to find horsolf in this land of desolation. He had not seemed to deslro to Injure hor olthor upon tho flight or after tholr arrival hero, In fuct had handled hor no moro severely than necessary In transporting hor. And aftor their descent ho had laid no hand upon hor, only staring at hor by tho hour from tho dlstanco of a yard or two with his groat, bootle-llko eyes, silent as a gargoyle or a graven Idol. Thon of a Budden ho would nrlso, listen as though ho had heard n sound which had not registered Itself upon hor cars, disappear only to Inter on como creeping bnck with tho stealth of a cat to resume his steadfast gazing, llo had not Boomed to notice tho bit- tor chill ot night and hnd nuulo no effort to muko a lire, and hor prlnclpnl physical Bufferings hnd boon caused by tho night cold. Nolthor hnd ho eaten or drank In her presence, and what ho was engaged In during his frequent excursions bIio had no Idea except whon Sho shuddorcd, clinging convulsive ly to March, spooking In a brokon volco. "I would give years of my llfo to efface that horrlblo momory. Tho moon had nrlaon fairly high whon all at onco bo became rigid, llstoncd, and his oyea shone Oh, with such a light, bo uncanny, so vlndlctlvo. Thoy wero tho eyoa of a colled Borpent, only so much greater thuu n serpent's nnd thoreforo room for Inflnltoly moro malice. Then ho cropt away llko a ghost through tho shadows of tho platoau with wlnga trailing nnd I saw him outlined for a moment upon a dis tant pllo of rockB beforo ho dropped out of sight upon tho other sldo. It was still thon ns It is now this tin ourthly Btlllnoss whoroln all nolsea soom faint nnd far away with no sounding board to omphnslze thorn. Thon a cry aioso, a cry so awful that for a moment 1 was paralyzed by tho1 horror ot It, and after that camo tho sounds of a struggle, the voice ot a man who la lighting for his llfo, hoarso and dosporate, togothor with a strange-, croaking sound such as tho creature made that night upon tho lawn after Clay had woundod him, I know that ho had surprised olthor you or Clay or possibly both of you, and that somobody would bo killed, My strength camo back to mo as It did when I ruBhod out to you with tho sword and In my dosporatlon I seized a stono and. ran towards tho placo whore thoy wero lighting, not knowing what I would do except that I would aid with all my little might. Then I saw him ariso with a dark form in his arms who It waB I could not tell. Ho beat his way upward until ho was very high, bo high that he looked no larger than my hand, and thon " Sho choked and could speak no more, staring straight ahead with fixed oyos ns if fascinated by something far distant "and then I sank upon this spot and have not left It since. I dared not go and look not even in tho periods of his nbsenco." Sho paused and they stood silently, tho grewsomoness of It all gripping them ao though they had just awak ened from tho spell of n nightmare. Then North's voice aroso quiet and even as though ho were speaking of tho most Immaterial of things. "MIbs Fulton, thoro la no occasion for fur ther anxiety upon your part, for be tweon Alan and myself hero we will guarantco you protection from all flying things, man or devil, between here and Jupiter. Yet wo must all be prepared for action and each bo alort to do his part and that part Is going to happen pietty quick." Ho mado a slight motion with his head. "Ho Is coming now. Look to the south." In stantly their eyes flow In that direc tion. Perhaps a mllo away and almost upon a level with tho pluteau the Fly lng Man waa bearing down upon them with tho speed of a hawk, flying ns he had done during tho long chase by the planes, his body almost horizontal with tho earth, his wings cutting the air with a rapidity of movement that they could not follow1. That ho had Just discovered them was evidonccd by a sudden broad Bweep aside, a halt and a poibing, followed by a slow zig zag course towards the edge of tho platoau. Two hundred yards away from them ho alighted, and standing upright nnd with wings half extended stnrod at them unwlnklngly with great, opalesque eyes. March, his loft arm thrown abound Doris and his right hand clasping his rovolver, was debat ing aB to whether ho should risk ono of 1i!b remaining three shots ut that improbablo hitting distance. North was already speeding upon him with tho rush of n torrlor. For perhaps ten seconds March, dialing under the impulso to charge nfter North, yet not daring to leavo the ono who was now clinging to him, watched them In nbsoluto fixity. Then as tho aviator, now half way across tho space, raised his arm for tho ttrst Bhot, tho flying ono beecamo a thing .of onorgy onco moro, alert and cun ning. Tho fury of a Jealous apo dis torted his faco. With a leap of m credlblo quickness-ho sprang over the ledge nnd disappeared, and when North, darting up to tho edge, peered over It ho saw his proy far below, his wings half shut, falling ns nn autumn leaf eddlos downward from a bounh. Closo above tho surface of the crater lako ho spread his pinions broad, skimmed over It llko a gull and went soaring upward from tho momentum of his fall. A mllo away ho alighted upon tho Bldo ot tho opposlto moun tain, went crawling over It upon all fours with wings trailing, then pick ing up a largo object mounted again. Upon tho tnblo mountain tho three shot quick glnnces at each other. Ho was about to bombard them fiom on high with stones that if thoy struck their mark would fell them as thouch stricken by tho lightnings, and March, knowing thnt bo and North would bo tho objects of tho attack, thrust Doris from him nnd stopped forth upon tho cleared spaco that lay boforo him. High above thorn tho flying ono poised, boating tho air as an cnglo hovers nbovo tho basking fish as ho achieves a position of absoluto perpendicular ity, thon released tho missile. Straight down upon North it shot, but uio aviator darting asldo with the quickness of a wensel, dodged It by a dozon foot, yet escaping bolng bo headed in its clanging rebound by tho breadth of a hand. Tho next 'instant both rovolvors spoke. Threo hundred feet above them they saw mm flap convulslv ly liko n wild fowl that fools tho sudden sting of load, whool In a broad circle, and then go lurching over tho nbyss with spas modic beating of his wings. A grim smile camo crooplng over tho faco of North. "Wo touched him up hnrd that time. Now once again, beforo he gits out of range." Again tho mountains revorbernted to tho double roar, and tho Flying Man, collapsing In midair, tut nod a complete sunnners.iult as he had dono that day whon tho mortars wero loosed against him Hut this tlmo thoro waa no lccovery. Whirling, spinning, turning dizzily, Ills great wlnga now fluttering unpotently. he struck tho lake In a spout of spray that shot high upward, sank, aroso, flonted for a momont borno up by his wide pinions, thon disappeared in tho depths of the bluo waters as a bhadow mergos with tne shnde. ' "And Lnko Tulo Is bottomloss. Tho sclentlatB will never oven got his body to spoculato over," muttsrod March. North turned his tonso faco upon them. "Anyway there are threo oyo wit nesses who can testify nt tho coro ner's Inquest, and when It comes to applying for thnt little old reward," he said grimly. "And It will make a respectaolo sum when divided up pro rata amongst us, Put's widow and a slice for the other boys who did not happen to be In nt tho death. Also today socb the last flight of ono erst while aviator named North. I have had enough ot skyscraplng to last for ono lifetime. I nm going to got mar ried and live happily in a holo In tho ground forovor after." Ho pointed Into tho air. "Imlay Is coming. He must have heard our guns. He can take ono of you down and I will guarantee tho safe doBcent of tho other." A grin overspread his face. "You two seem to be having your own troubles nnd I guess I'll fade Into the perspective for a moment If you think you can Bpare me. And my blessings upon you." Ho turned his back upon them and was gono behind the rocks. CHAPTER XVI. Tho End. Doris was in March's arms, hor tremblings vanished by that strong clasp, tho horror that had filled her oyes gono, hor sweet faco upturned to his. "But tell mo," he was whispering. "Poor Clay ho lost his mentnl polsa at the Inst and said many wild things. Was thoro any understanding between you you know what I mean, Doris were you' He hesitated, turning his oyes upon tho distant speck floating In the sky, which ho knew to bo Im lay speeding towards them. Her face grew very grave and her voice was low as sho anticipated the word ho disliked to speak. "No wo were good friends, nothing more. Ho asked me to marry him upon the Sundny of tho pursuit and I told him I would answer him by letter upon tho following day. Ho had al ways been so kind to me that I did not havo tho courage to refuse him to his face and he was so strange in many ways. In my letter I told him that I could not accept, bogging tho privilege of his continued friendship. Ho accepted tho answer calmly, mere ly renewing his avowals of devotion and repeating that ho would give all oven to his life for me." Her eyes swam mistily. "And the horror of It! Ho kept his word." "Ho loved you devotedly and did all that a brave man could for you, Dor Is," said March gently. She nodded. "I understand. And his memory- what can ono say! Sho ran her fin gers lightly across his matted hair, whero tho bullet had raked his skull. Again the Mountains Reverberated to the Double Roar. "You woro wounded?" sho nsked Boft ly. For tho first and last tlmo In his llfo March lied to hor. "Yos, an accldont tho accidental discharge of a revolver. Hut towards the last I thought you loved him most after all. You nter would ntiBwer me, you know." Sho smiled up nt him, Doris' old smile, and thoro was no sweeter ono anywhere. "That night upon tho lawn when I thought my last hour had como! Did I not lonvo him and run to your arms? And was thnt not answer enough?" A fnlnt whistlo fell upon tholr ears, thin, sibilant, momentarily shrilling loudor. March glanced southward again. "Imlay is only a mllo away and will bo hero In another minute to take you bnck back to tho homo from which I shall so shortly tako you forevor, Doris," ho said nB ho drew hor closer. Hor head was upon hla shoulder, her faco upturned, hor rich lips but a matter of Inches from his own. Ho clnlmod them. THE END. oGroti'rtff Children Need a Mild Laxative to Foster Regular Bowel Movement. As a child grow3 older It rcqulros moro and moro personal attention from tho mother, and as tho func tions of tho bowels aro of tho utmost Importance to health, great attention should bo paid to them. Dlot Is of great Importance, and tho mother should watch the effect of cer tain foods. A food will constipate ono and not another, and so wo havo a healthy food like eggs causing bilious ness to thousands, and a wholesome fruit liko bananas constipating many. It is also to bo considered that tho child is growing, and great changes aro taking placo In tho young man or young woman. Tho system has not yot settled itself to Its later routine.

"Whereat tho Jury retired and In about ten minutes tho constable re turned and presented himself boforo the Judge. " 'Your honor,' ho remarked, 'the gcntlemon of tho Jury want somo In formation.'

"And Again, My Brethren!" A certain small girl, wearily listen ing to a long sermon by a minister who had tho odd habit of drawing in his breath with an odd whistlo, whis pered to her mother that she wanted to go homo.
