from all sides. All those who resist are
shot down or stabbed, and the remain
der, old and young, are taken prisoners
and are hc-dcd into stoclsadcd pen
and there guarded night and day.
The Arabs then open up negotiations
with the surrounding villages and OK
change their captvcs for ivory. One
big tusll weighing sixty-fvc pounds
will grant the release of one slave. The
Arabs remain in such Il camp till the
district is drained of its ivory Then
the slaves who have not been purchased
arc loaded down with ivory and the
mcrcilcss pillagcrs move along to n new
hunting ground
The chart of Central Africa is con-
stantly changing. To-day some tray
clcr maps down IL flourishing settlement
as yet untouched by prowling slavers.
The villagers are friendly and indus
trious, and well-kcpt plantations of
grain and fruits flank the long rows of
ncatly-built huts. A few weeks hence
the woods around it will echo back tho
ring of muskct shots and the dying
groans of those who dared to defend
their homes, and naught will remain of
that happy settlement but charred en-
bcrs and few dccaying bodies, silently
explaining in CHASTITY cloqucncc the rca-
son Of the change.
Many of the tribes who were living
near the rivers no longer dwell on
shore; they have scoopcd out monster
canoes which are reofcd with mating.

The cunning Arabs purposcly keep

courage the most brutal and barbarous
customs among the interior tribes.
Ceremonies involving human sacrifice
and cannibal orgies create demand for
slaves, which the Arab will supply
when the payment is ivory.
The Arab slavers are not merely a
few brigand tribes scattered over the
land, but a powerful, well organized
system occupying the heart of Africa.
From the numerous slave depo.s large
bands of hired robbers are constantly
going and coming-starting out with
their musllc:s and fed loads of ammu-
milton and returning with slaves and
ivory obtained by theft and murder.
The ivory eventually reaches Zanxi-
bar, on the east coast. When u goodly
pile has been collected" at one of the
strongholds a caravan of slave gangs
carries il to the Indian ocean. Every

The Arab SLAYER powerfully equipped

Those tiny trails penned on the chart
