said TO himself. Then he nodded to
the chief and held up the fingers of
both hands several times. The chief
understood. He was a warrior. He
knew that much safety lay in num-

One warrior seized Inez in his grasp
and with a cry of triumph darted with
her toward the jungle. A sailor who
followed was stricken down. But it
was Hernandez who stopped the cap

him by the arm.
Back he ordered, with a sign
that spelled fury, back there. This

"Senorita," said Hernandez suavely,

Because Annette Ilington and her

that man-eating savages still existed.
Struggling with her captors, An

Jungle. Behind her she heard the NUT

her party. Just once she heard p
whisper.

sake don't tell the women. They'll be

At that moment there was distant

Safety First.


Not for one instant did Hernandez
lose the advantage that he had al
ready gained.
With audacity that belonged only
TO him, he led the Brute to the chiefs

He enforced the command with a
