She'll outsrowth Of Missiles EN-.
ployed Long Ago by Chinese.

Many OF the NEW" weapons pro-
duced by the world war are really very
old. Thus the asphyxiating bomb Is
an outgrowth of n missile employed
long ngo by the Chinese. Instead Of
deadly chemicals, It contained some
substance that emitted n nauseous
odor, accompanied by sitting smoke.
Later this device appeared In Europe
and was known by the inelegant but
expressive name Of "stlnk-pot."
Another Chinese war method paved
the way for incendiary shells. They
Invented n rocket, later adopted and
widely used by the S%araccns. which
fired Il kind of ball having claws or
hooks that would catch hold to the
side Of II building and set fire To II.
These balls We're made OF petroleum
and inter, which became famous in
the later agcs as Greek fire.
The German device of throwing Pc
trol upon an enemy by means of n
pump was used long ago, when an at
tacking ship often spouted flames Mt
the object OF its assault. This plan
was reserved for close quarters, and
frequently resulted In the destruction
Of the vessel SO attacked.

raised her hand and In a strained
whisper exclaimed:
"'Sh-h. Listen !"
The heavy door OF the hacienda
crcuked. Il quick tread sounded on the
tiles. the door to the living room was
flung open, and Longorio entered. He
was hot and dusty from his ride, but
with n lovers impetuosity he had made
straight for this lighted room.
For the briefest instant he balanced
himself just inside the portal. AID the
smile remained fixed upon his lips.
Then his eyes became ringed with
white and he made IA swift, catlike
movement of retreat. Plainly this was
the supremest surprise Of his lifetime,
and he seemed to doubt his senses. But
he recovered quickly. Thrusting his
head forward. he demanded

stared from Dave to the priest, then
back again.
They all spoke at once, but he heard
