No one ever told the

fought to uphold, down
throughout the ages1'
the torch of civilization.

, but luxuries denied

sand years ago.
The J. C. Penney'
Company with its nation-wide
organization
of 773 stores is but a
Tegimerit in that vast
tnercKan dise '. army,
struggling to bring)
goods from where they
are to where they are
needed with the great
est possible economy
of time, effort and
money. Every sales
man is but one more
soldier in the fight, that
has been waged for cen

path of those hurrying
feet. He is doing his
.bit to uphold the stand
ards of civilization.
THIS HAS HAPPENED
To tliti queer Hula South Ameri
can town of Porto Verde, lu went
central Brazil, a town fringed by
dark, forbidding Jungle, comes an
elderly American, Lincoln Nuu-
nally, a fatuous chemist.
An air of mystery seems to bang
over the place. This impression is
accentuated when the porter who,
handles Nunally's grips hintB of
strange deaths that have occurred
and mubles gloomy prophecies.
In the barber shop, Uie barber.
a Btrauge, dark man with an Ori
ental cast to his eyes, speaks to
Nunually. who then recognizee
hi nuts Vllaka West, . known to
him as Vllaka West, known to
He asks Vlluk what he is doing in
Porto Verde. To his amazement,
Vlluk says he has sent (or him,
that he and his cbusin, Elsie Mar
berry, own the Porto Verde Devel
opment company, and need assist
ance in getting at the root of a
mystery that already has coBt sev
eral lives and threatened Elsie's. .
The barber business, Vlluk ex
plains, serves to conceal his real
activities. In the midst of bis ex
planation, word reaches him that
another man has been murdered,
and he and Nunnally hasten to
the Bpot where the .victim, Tony
Barbetta, one of his cousin's fore
men, lies on the ground, still alive.
NOW .BEGIN THE STORY
CHAPTER IV.
Vllnk drew a pin from the lapel
of his coat and touched the point
to Barbetta's arm. The flesh did
not twitch as ordinary living flesh
would have responded to the ex
periment, but the little Italian's
eyes showed that he felt the pain.
This is certainly unusual," Vi
las: whispered to his companion.
"I can't conceive of anything
which could possibly have put him
into such a state. His muscles
are completely paralyzed, yet his
sensations of pain aren't affected
In the slightest." His blue eyes
half closed and the closing accen
tuated thoir distinct Chinese cast.
He stood thus a moment, lost in
thought, then abruptly knelt beside
the body. "I think I may have it,"
be whispered. "Take bold of his
arm there. We'll try artificial
respiration.
Nunnally leaned to obey. As he
did so a step sounded near him.
j Prentiss, the , archeologlst, came
rorwaru irora me uusueu wiiena uv
had been watching, the curious
mark on his forehead sullenly
aglow. "You can't save him," he
mumbled. '"No power on earth can
save him."
Vilak; glanced up. peered at him
on inBtant, then with Nunnally be
gan" alternately lifting Barbetta's
arms above his head and pressing
them against his chest. There was
a slight movement as of restored
breathing on the Italian's lips; the
pain evident in his eyes lessened.
For ten minutes the two friends
labored vigorously;- then; one of
Barbetta's legs jerked feebly.
. "I think we've won," Vlluk mur
mured.
Five minutes later Barbetta was
staggefing to his feet. With Latin
passion he shook his fist at the
you, Meestcr RiggB," he burst out
passionately. "Then you tell Alias
Mulberry. Limey he badda man.
He try to keel her like he keel me.
You will tell her he try to keel her?
You will tellf You will lellj" He
gaspe dvlolently for breath.
Vilak nodded. "I'll tell her,
Tony," ho said soothingly. "Don't
you worry. And he hasn't killed
you. You're all right now. You're
not going to die. You're going to
live a long time. You'll take a long
rest. Then go back to Italy niuybu
and Bee your mother and futhor.
Tell me what happened?
The Italian shivered and clutch
ed Vllak's arm for support. "I tell
you. Sure I tell you. I neur my
house, lu bUBhes. You know my
house. Pretty house. Little red
roof. Like houses In Italy. Look
ing for snakes who steal my little
chickens. Then I see a man
creeping through bushes. I wait.
He comes closer. 1 see him. It
is Limey. Limey the badda, the
evil Limey that I hate. In his
hand is somothing. I think he
como to do me harm. I want him
far, oh far from my little house
with the red roof. He badda man,
badda Englishman, I follow
through the bushes. And then I
see Miss Marberry in the road
driving in her cart. It is she he
follows. And Uien I bave great
fear for her, for the last duys have
I heard him talk much aguinst her.
Evil talk. Because last week Blie
have make mo head foreman and
not him. He climbs a tree to a
limb where the loaves will hldo
him. He holds his knife. But. I,
Tony, I see hiB plan. When tho
carriage will pass under the tree,
he will Jump down upon It ami
kill her."
He wont on feverishly. "I cross
to the road where it is not so
bushy, where. I can run faster and
warn lflsr. I run. I cry out. 'Ituu
Miss iMarborry! Bun! Fast!' She
hear. She drives fast. Too fast for
him to full upon her, She is gone.
Limey jumps from the tree to tho
ground, lie ruiiB after me. 'What
you mean by screaming like thut,
you dugo blighter?' He shout.
'What you mean? What you mean?'
I not dago blighter. Good Italian.
Good American. Not" His voice
suddenly dropped to a whiBper. His
face resumed its gray pallor.' 'His
grip on Vilak's arm became weak
er than a child's. "He killa.mo,"
he murmured. "He killa me. An1
he killa Miss Marberry like he
killa me. Tell her, tell . . ." He
pitched forward and fell to the
ground.
Vilak touched his wrist. "Dead,"
he pronounced laconically. ' '
The gendarme looked In a soil of
stupid awe at the motionless body,
then began to more off with his
prisoner. Tho Englishman turned
to the barber. "It's a damn dago
blighter's dope dream," ho grum
bled. "A dope dream. You just
