SALADA TEA COMPANY OF CANADA LIMITED Jungle Breath */ Ben Lucicn Burman THIS HAS HAPPENED Attempts have been made on the life of Elise Marberry, who owns a coffee' plantation near Porto Verde, Brazil. Elise receives a message that the man- ager of her plantation at Villapa is ill and she, her cousin Vilnk (known s Attorney Davis), and Lincoln Nun- nally, aged chemist, set out to visit him. On the way they are ambushed by a band of brigands dressed as sol- diers and are accused of murder. The charge is obvioutly a fake. Nunnally and Vilak are trussed up and thrown -n the floor of a damp room over which large numebrs of termite ants *warm. The ants eat through the lea- tfer thongs and Vilak is free. Vilak has come to the conclusion that the bandits are in the pay of Gaylord I'rentiu, Kline's enemy. NOW BK<;iN THE STOHY CHAPTKK XXIV. Thrusting off the thongs from his cramped limbs, Vilak scrambled to his feet, quickly untied the cords which held the old man, then, picking up a unall stone wine bottle which stood upon a rotting shelf and was the on'.y weapon the room afforded, put a pellet of betel on his tongue and lx>gan watching at t/.e window He waited until he saw the cooks begin to dish out huge portions of the hot mixture in the pot into the pans <>f (he soldiers who came forward. Only two men wc-ro now left in close proximity to the house, the guard at the front door and the guard at the back. "This is our chance," he whispered t< Nunnally. "They're confident, hun- gry, and off their guard. Don't make i. ind." He crawled to the door, opened it inch by inch, so that it would not cri-ak, then stepped into the shadow of the doorway. The sentry was jrni-dily watering his companions at their meal, his back to the duor he WRIGLEYS Life-like good golf is mad up of many little things each one of which helps the score. ' Belter digestion steadier nervei clearer brain, are all facton that count and art gained from the me of Wrigley*!. every mtal was certain n.-eded none of his guard- ing. Clapping his hand over the sentin- el's mouth to prevent an outcry, Vilak brought the wine bottle down upon his head. The guard, stunned into un- consciousness, started to fall. Vilak caught him and dragged him inside. Quickly he stripped off the prisoner's blue-striped coat, trousers and hat, denned them himself, strapped his pistol around his waist, took his rifle, then bound and gagged him in ca?e ht should recover consciousness more quickly than Vilak expected. Once more he silently opened the door, and with the other's hat pulled far <lwn over his eyes, took his post outside it, prepared to grunt in Por- tuguese to nny of the soldiers who might approach. But they were too occupied with their suppers. He step- ped noiselessly inside the room again. "Come on," he whispered to the old man- Creeping along the fdgo of the house and then into the tangled vege- tation which instantly swallowed them up, he led the way to a clump of trees a hundred feet behind the fire where the troopers' horses were tied. Here another soldier was on guard. Crawling up behind him, he render- ed him unconsci HIS by the same effec- tive method he had used a few mo- ments before, now employing the butt end of his pistol instead of the wine bottle. He took liis new victim's revolver and tfave it to the old man. Quickly he unfastened the leashes of the three, horses which had brought thtm from Klisc'i fazerula an-l gave these to the old man to hold. Then with a knife which ho had found in the soldier's uniform he slashed at the bridles of the others so that a slight pull would sever them instantly. "Wait here," he whispered. He began crawling through the underbrush toward the fire. The niustached cnplain had now taken u place beside K'ise on the log. Vilak stealthily crept up behind him. "Don't turn, my capita?.," he said quietly as lie pir-ased the muzzle of his j.istol against the other's back, "else I shall be compelled to kill you Which would be a pity. .Stand up and move forward to the fire. If any of your men lift a hand to aid you, that in- >tiint you will die." The. officer's body quivv vd. Vilak c"uld the muscles of his thick neck swell. But he neither answered nor made any effort to resist, merely rose stonily from the log and begun trudg- ing forward. Tho soldiers looked on in stupefaction. When tho officer had reached the fire and Vilak was in a position where he could survey the circle of gaping, grotesque faces about him, he ordered the officer to halt. Carefully he took his pistol from his belt, then looked toward his con- win, who at his unexpected appearance had instantly cast off her air of pa- tient .dejipjiji and weariness ajul darting cautiously from side to a ide. Still holding his own pistol against the officer's back and shifting his glance constantly from his captive to the rigid soldiers, Vilak with his free hand cut the cords binding Elise's wrists, then gave her the captain's | weapon- "Walk slowly over to the horses by those trees to the right," he said to her. "Nanny's waiting there. Both of you mount and wait for me Call out when you're ready." He watched her move off to the shadows, heard her low shout, then picked up a blazing ember of the fire and began walking, thrusting the cap- tain constantly before him with his pistol. He reached the clump of tree*. Elise and the old man were in their saddles, Nunnally clutching the bridle of Vilak's restless stallion. Vilak tied the bridle around one arm, then with the captain still in front of him and the horse trailing behind, walked to the mounts of the soldiers tied to the trees. He raised the flaming ember he had in his hand and dashed it close to their heads, shouting loudly. The frightened animals whinnied, snorted, and tugged frenxiedly at their halters to escape the flaming enemy. The weakened leather snapped, the panic- struck Ix-asts dnshcd wildly into the forest. Vilak put his foot into the stirrup of his own steed, whinnying nervously as it witnessed its fellow creatures' terror. "Adios. amigo ," he called cheerilv to the captain, and springing into his saddle, raced off toward the road. His two companions followed. They gainod the highway. Vilak turned his horac to Villapa. They sped on through the darkness, hearing behind them a few futile shots and volleys of passionate curses as the soldiers searched blindly in the woods for their vanished sU-eds. Vila listened and laughed- Elise gazed at him thoughtfully, then lean- ed over and kissed him. Their horses 'did not slacken their headlong pace. In half an hour they had reached Villapa. Quickly they found Hilson, the superintendent. His face, long and tapering liko a carrot, was gaunt, his eyes hollow, after effects apparent- ly of a Ion*' attack of fever. Judging, however, by his quick active move- ! ments, he was well on the road to . convalescence.

Though the river was rising hourly and a ba flood now very likely, if not certain he said that he felt so much improve! that he was perfectly able to cope witl any emergency. Unless, of course, the dam broke at Avilos, in which even no one could 'I > anything. To their dismay, however, when they asked him for guns to take the place of those which had been stolen he apologetic illy replied that he couh lend them only the tvo pistols which he had in his own cabin. The Villapa fner?da never iird mire than a few rifles, he went on; and only the day before an Indian laborer had taken them to the paint shed to oil them and ea'relevi^iy lighting a cigaret, ha< set the whole shed on fire. The flames had consumed every- thing in it, the workman himselj barely escaping with his life. He hat discharged the workman, of course, he added, but that didn't bring back the guns. (To be continued-) THOUGHTS ON HONOR If honor calls, where'er she points the way The sons of honor follow and obey. Churchill. Honor and shame from no condition rise; Act well your part, there all the honor Pope. Life's hut a word, a shadow, a melting dream, Compar'd to essential and eternal honor. Fletcher If it he a (tin to covet honor, I am the most offending soul alive. Shakespeare. Honor Is the e-hief content. That to man in life Is lei.i. Robert Greene. If well respected Honor bid me on, I hold as little counsel with weak fear, As you. Shakespeare. BE GLAD To he glad of life because it gives you the chance t love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars; to be satisfied with your pos- sessions but not contened with your- self until you have made the best of them; to despis ; nothing In the world except falsehood and mean ness, and j to fear nothing except cowardice; to be governed by your admirations rather than by your disgusts; to covet nothing that is your neighbor's except his kindness; to think seldom of your enemies, often rf yjur friend, and every day of Christ; and to spend as much time as you can *lth body and with spirit, In God's out-of-doors i ese are little guide-posts on the foot- path of peace. Henry van Dyke. Prolonging the Vegetable Season A continuous supply of vegetables can he secured If the earliest sorts such as carrots, beets, onions, lettuce and spinach are planted at intervals of a week or ten days until the end of June. One must cultivate frequent- ly, thin out well and fertilize heavily with some quickly available material like ultrate of soda every ten days If the plants are to be kept going and the resulting crop made tender. Where possible soak well with water every three or four days if the weath- er Is very dry. It is well to remember that one thorough soaking a week Is worth a dozen daily sprinkles. After watering get out the hoe or scuffier and loosen up the top growth so that moisture may be preserved. Follow the early crops of spinach, lettuce, radish and onions with later maturing sorts such as tomatoes, beets, carrots, heaus and corn. These can be inter- planted with, the early vegetables and will not need full room until the first named are taken out and consumed. , *i rtnl on, OB*. Minird's Check* Fajjlno Hlr.

"Kdlth," she said, "you'd better not wear any jewellery to-night only just while the guests are here."
