The carnivore waa crouching to spring as Tsrxan discovered the tragic itableau. Nome' was almost beneath the branch upon which the stood, naked and unarmed.

Wide went Jane Clayton's eyes In wonder and Incredulity aa she beheld this seeming apparition risen from the dead. The 1km was forgotten her own peril everything save the wondrous miracle of tills strange recrudescence. She saw the sinewy form leap to. the shoulder of the 1km, hurtling against the leaping beast like a huge, animate battering ram. She saw the ciiruivore brushed aside as ha was almost upon her, and lu the instant she realised that no aubstanreleas wraith could thus turn the charge of a maddened lion with brute force greater than the brute's. Tarxan, her Tarsan, lived I A cry of unaiieakable gladness broke from her lips, only to die In terror aa she saw the utter defenseless of her mate and realised that the lion had recovered himself and was turning upon Tarxan In mad lust for vengeance. 's At the feet lay the rifle of the dead Abyssinian whose mutilated corpse sprawled where Numu had abandoned It Tba quirk glance which had swept the ground for some weapon of defense discovered It, and as the lion reared uNin his hind legs to seise the rash who had dared Interpose Its puny strength between Kunia and his prey, the heavy stock whirred through the air and splintered upon the broad forehead. J Not as an ordinary mortal might strike a blow did Tarsan of the Apes strike, but with the maddened frenxy of a wild beast backed by the steel thews which his wild, arboreal boyhood had bequeathed him. When the blow ended the splintered stock was driven through the splintered skull Into tlie savage brain, and the heavy Iron barrel was bent Into a rude V. In the Instant that the lion sank lifeless to the ground Jane Clayton threw herself Into the eager arms of tier husband. For a brief instant ha strained her dear form to his breast, and then a glance about him awakened n to the dungers which still the surrounded them. The blacks who had witnessed his advent looked on In ainaxemcnt as they saw the naked gluut leap easily Into the branches of the tree from whence he had dropped so uncannily upon the scene and vanish as he had come, bearing away their prisoner with him. Unmolested, Tarxan passed from the camp of the Abyssinlans, from which the din of conflict followed him deep Into the Jungle until distance gradually obliterated It entirely. llnck to the spot where he bad left Jiy In his Werper went the heart now, where fear and sorrow bad so recently reigned, and In his mind a determination to forgive the Belgian and aid him In making good his escape.

Straight as homing pigeons the two made their way toward the ruin and desolation that had once been the center of their happy lives, and which waa soon to be restored by the willing Mack hands of laughing laborers, made happy again by the return of the master and mistress whom they had mourned ns dead.
