To
Tarzan
it
was
as
though
one
should
eulogize
a
butcher
for
his
heroism
in
killing
a
cow
,
for
Tarzan
had
killed
so
often
for
food
and
for
self-preservation
that
the
act
seemed
anything
but
remarkable
to
him
.
But
he
was
indeed
a
hero
in
the
eyes
of
these
men
--
men
accustomed
to
hunting
big
game
.
Incidentally
,
he
had
won
ten
thousand
francs
,
for
D'Arnot
insisted
that
he
keep
it
all
.
This
was
a
very
important
item
to
Tarzan
,
who
was
just
commencing
to
realize
the
power
which
lay
beyond
the
little
pieces
of
metal
and
paper
which
always
changed
hands
when
human
beings
rode
,
or
ate
,
or
slept
,
or
clothed
themselves
,
or
drank
,
or
worked
,
or
played
,
or
sheltered
themselves
from
the
rain
or
cold
or
sun
.
It
had
become
evident
to
Tarzan
that
without
money
one
must
die
.
D'Arnot
had
told
him
not
to
worry
,
since
he
had
more
than
enough
for
both
,
but
the
ape-man
was
learning
many
things
and
one
of
them
was
that
people
looked
down
upon
one
who
accepted
money
from
another
without
giving
something
of
equal
value
in
exchange
.
Shortly
after
the
episode
of
the
lion
hunt
,
D'Arnot
succeeded
in
chartering
an
ancient
tub
for
the
coastwise
trip
to
Tarzan
's
land-locked
harbor
.
It
was
a
happy
morning
for
them
both
when
the
little
vessel
weighed
anchor
and
made
for
the
open
sea
.
The
trip
to
the
beach
was
uneventful
,
and
the
morning
after
they
dropped
anchor
before
the
cabin
,
Tarzan
,
garbed
once
more
in
his
jungle
regalia
and
carrying
a
spade
,
set
out
alone
for
the
amphitheater
of
the
apes
where
lay
the
treasure
.
Late
the
next
day
he
returned
,
bearing
the
great
chest
upon
his
shoulder
,
and
at
sunrise
the
little
vessel
worked
through
the
harbor
's
mouth
and
took
up
her
northward
journey
.
Three
weeks
later
Tarzan
and
D'Arnot
were
passengers
on
board
a
French
steamer
bound
for
Lyons
,
and
after
a
few
days
in
that
city
D'Arnot
took
Tarzan
to
Paris
.
The
ape-man
was
anxious
to
proceed
to
America
,
but
D'Arnot
insisted
that
he
must
accompany
him
to
Paris
first
,
nor
would
he
divulge
the
nature
of
the
urgent
necessity
upon
which
he
based
his
demand
.
