Copyright, 1920, by Falgar Rice Burroughs, CHAPTER V. (Continued) one can prophesy what @ lion will do in any given emergency, This one glared and growled at the girl for 4 moment and then fell to feeding upon the dead horse. Fraulein Kircher wondered for an instant and then attempted to draw her leg cau- tiously from beneath the body of her mount; but she could not budge it. She increased the force of her efforts nd Numa looked up from his feed- ing to growl again. The girl desisted. She hoped ‘that perhaps he might satisfy his hunger and then dopart Oo to lle up; but she could not believe that he would leave her there ally Doubtless he would drag the remains of his kill into the bush for hiding, and, as there could be no doubt that he considered her part of his pre} he would certainly come back for her, or possibly drag her in first and kill her. Again Numa fell to’ feeding. The girl's nerves were at the breaking} point. She wondered that she had! not fainted under the strain of terror! and shock. She recalled that she often‘ had wished she might see a lion, close to, make a kill and feed upon it! God! how realistically her wish had been granted. Again she bethought herself of her pistol. As she had fallen the holster had slipped around so that the wea- pon now iay beneath her. Very slow- ly she reached for it, but in so doing she was forced to raise her body from the ground. Instantly the lion was aroused. With the swiftness of a cat he reached across the carcass of the horse and placed a heavy, taloned paw upon her breast, crushing her back to earth, and all the time he growled and snarled horribly. His face was a picture of frightful rage incarnate. For a moment neither moved and then from behind her the girl heard a human voiee uttering hefistial sound: Numa sudden!y looked up from the girl's face at the thing beyond her. His growls increased to roars as he drew back, ripping the front of the girl's waist almost from her body with his long talons, exposing her white bosom, which through some miracle of chance the great claws did not touch. ‘Tarzan of the Apes had witnessed the entire encounter from the mo- ment that Numa had leaped upon his prey. For some time before he had been watching the girl and after the lion attacked her he had at first been minded to let Nurfla have his way with her. What\was she but a hated German and a spy besides?

Now he came forward calling to Numa in the language of the great warning him away from the If is open to question that the lion, understood him; but ne did ynderstand the menace of the heavy spear that the Tarmangan! ‘ | carried so ready in his brown, right | smarhand, and so he drew back, growl- ing, trying to decide in his little brain whether to ge or flee. On came the ape-man with never a pause, straight for the lion. “Go away, Numa,” hep cried, “or Tarzan will tie you ‘up again and lead you through the jungle without food. See Arad, my spear! Do you recall how hig point stuck into you and how with his haft I beat you over the head? Go, Numa! [am Tarzan of the Apes! Numa wrinkled the skin of his face into great folds, until his eyes almost 4isappeared and he growled and roared and snarled and growled again, and When the spear point came at last quite close to him he struck at it viciously with his armed paw; but he drew back. Taraan stepped over the dead horse and the girl lying behind him gazed in wide- eyed astonishment at the handsome figure driving an angry lion deliber- ately from its kill. When Numa had retreated a few yards, the ape-man called back to the girl in perfect German, “Are you badly hurt?” “I think not," she replied; “but I cannot extricate my foot from be- neath my hoi “Try again,” comanded Tarzan. “T do not know how long I can hold Numa thus.” The girl struggled frantically; but ut last she sank back upon an elbow. “It is impossible,” she called to him. He backed slowly until he was again beside the horse, when he reached down and grasped the cinch, which was still intact. Then with one hand he raised the carcass from the ground. The girl freed herself and rose to her feet. “You can walk?” asked Tarzan. “Yes,” she said; “my leg is numb but it does not seem to be injured.” “Good,” commented the ape-man. “Back slowly away behind me— make no sudden movements. I think he will not charge." v ‘With utmost deliberation the two backed toward the bush, Numa stood for a moment, growling, then he followed them, slowly. ‘Zan T wondered if he would come beyond his kilt or if he would stop there. If he followed them beyond, then they could look for a charge, and if Numa charged it was very likely that he would get one of them. When the lion reached the carcass of the horse Tarzan stopped and so did Numa, as Tarzan had thought that he would, and the ape-ma waited to see what the lion would do next. He eyed them for a mo- ment, gmarled angrily and then looked down at the tempting meat. Presently he crouched upon his kill and resumed feeding. The girl breathed a deep sigh of relief as she and the ape-man re- sumed their slow retreat with on: an occasional glance from the lion, and when at last they reached the Dush and had turned and entered it, she felt a sudden giddiness over- whelm her so that she staggered and would have fallen had Tarzan not caucht her. It was only a mo- ment before she regained control of herself, “I could not help it,” she said, in half apolory. "I was so close to death—such a horrible death—It un- nerved me for an instant; but T am all right now. How can I ever thank you? It was so wonderful—you did not seem to fear the frightful crea- ture in the least; yet he waa afraid of you. Who are you?” “He knows me,” replied Tarzan, grimly—"that is why he fears me.” He was standing facing the girl now and for the first time he had a chance to look at her squarely and closely. She was very beautiful—that was undeniable; but Tarzan realized her beauty only in a subconscious way. It Was superficial—it did not color her soul which must be black as sin, She was German—a German spy. He hated her and desired only to compass her distruction; but he would choose the manner so that It would work most grievously against the enemy cause. He saw her naked breasts where Numa had torn her clothing from her and dangling there against the soft, white flesh he saw that which brought a sudden scowl of surprise and anger to his face—the diamond- studded, golden locket of his youth— the love token that had been stolen from the breast of his mate by Schneider, the Boche, The girl saw the scow! but did not interpret {t cor- rectly, Tarzan grasped her roughly by the arm. “Where did you get this?" he de- manded, as he tore the bauble from her. The girl drew herself to her full height. “Take your hand from me, she demanded, but the ape-man pi no attention to her words, only ing her more forcibly. “Answer me!" he snapped. “Where did you get this’ “What is it to you?" she coun- tered. “It is mine," he replied, “Tell me who gave it to you or I will throw you back to Numa.” ou would do that?” she asked. “Why not?" he queried. “You are ‘a spy and spies must die if they are caught,” “You were going to kill me, then?" “T was going to take you to head- quarters, They would dispose of You have seen| YOU there: but Numa can do it quite as effectively.

She cast a side | glance at the tall figure. What o |magnificent creature! But he war a brute who would kill her or have her killed if she did not slay him And the locket! She must have that back—it must not fall to reach Wii- helmstal. Tarzan was now a foot or two ahead of her as the path was very narrow, Cautiously she drew her pistol. A single shot would suffice and he was o close that she could not miss. As she figured jtall out her eye rested on the brown ekin wit) the graceful muscles rolling beneath it and the perfect limbs and head and the carriage that a proud king of old might have envied, A wave of revulston for her con- templated act surged through her No, @he could not do it—yet, she must be free and she must regain. Possession of the locket. And’ then almost blindly, she ewung the weapon up and struck Tarzan heavily upon the back of the head with Its butt. Like @ felled ox he dropped in his tracks. 7 CHAPTER VI. T WAS an hour later that Sheeta the panther, hunting, chanced to glance upward into the blue sky where his attention was attracted by Ska, the vulture, circling slowly above the bush a mile away and} down wind, For a long minute the yellow eyes stared intently at the gruesome bird. They saw Ska dive and rise again to continue his om inous circling, and in these move- ments their woodcraft read that which, while obvious to Sheeta, would doubtiess have meant nothing to You or me. The hunting cat guessed that on the ground beneath Ska, was some living thing o: flesh—either a beast feeding upon its kill or a dying ani- mal that Ska did not yet dare attack In eithet event \t might prove meat for Sheeta, and so the wary feline stalked by a circuitous route, upon soft, padded feet that gave forth no sound, until the circling aasvogel and his intended victim were up wind. Then, sniffing each vagrant zephyr, Sheeta, the panther, crept cautiously forward, nor had advanced any con- siderable distance before his keen nostrils were rewarded with the Beent of man—a Tarmangani, Sheeta paused. He was not a hunter ot men. He was young and in his prime, but always before he had avoided this hated presehce. Of late he had become more accustomed to it with the passing of many soldiers through his ancient hunting ground and as the soldiers had frightened away a great part of the game Sheeta had been wont to feed upon the days had been lean and Sieeta was hungry. The circling Ska suggested that this Tarmangani might be helpless and upon the point of dying, else Ska would not have been interested in him and so easy prey for Shecta, With this thought in mind the cat resumed Ia stalking. Presently he. pushed through the thick bush and is yellow-green eyes rested gloatingly upon the body of an almost nakel Tarmangani lying face down in a narrow game trail. * Numa, sated, rose from the carcass of Bertha Kircher's horse, seized the partially devoured body by the neck and dragged it Into the bush, * then he started east toward the lair where he had left -his mate. Being uncomfortably full he was véry com- fortable and inclined to be sleepy and far from belligerent. He moved slowly and majestically with no of- |fort at silence or concealment.
