petting spent, drew b; ck for u se on d

faint breathing space of a mornvnt s
duration sealed his fate. Sei-dn- is

closed upon the breathless monster,
and drought down the henvy stone
hammer point blank upon the i enter
of his crashing skull. The weai on
drove home, it left a great red gash
in the cannihal's head. Tu Kila-hila
reeled and fell. There was an in''nite
pause of silence and suspeiiee. Then
a (Treat shout went up from all round

examined the prostrate body with
solemn reverence. Blood was i owing
in torrent from the wounded head.
But Tu Kila-Kila was dead - stone dead
forever.
Hot tears of relief welled up into
Felix eyes. He touched the body

trembling with apprehension. "You

mighty shout of mingled surprise,
alarm and terror. ' Taboo! Taboo!
Fence the mysteries. He ware h,

At the words, Felix was aware of
somebody bursting through the dense
crowd and rushing wildly toward him.
Next moment Muriel hung and. sobbed
on his shoulder, while Mali, just oe
hiad her, stood crying and moaning.
Felix held the poor startled girl in

It is thought that the recently con
trived apparatus called the toimeiie
phone, r esigned to trace m air t.ie

pracl cal purpose in the detection of
the iiiantity of coal gas in mines.
The construction of this instrument
is based upon the well-known acous
tic principle that, if two organ pipes
of the same pitch are soun ,cd simul
taneously by means of blowers, fed
by pure air, a simple sound is neard,
but if there be forced through one of
the-e pipes puie air, wmle the other
is throwu into vibrations ny mean
of a mixture of air and gas, I ha

apparatus by means of wtu n this
operation is pei formed, consist
simply of two blowers and two pipes
precisely alike. One of the blowcm

in an air tight box containing pu.rij
