"CAMOUFLAGED"

Continued from Page Thirteen)
bandage a small disc Of deep scar
let. The figure was breathing heav-
ily. KimbaIl advanced toward the
bed, but the old woman was quicker
than he; she snatched the sheet and
drew it rapidly over the bandaged
head. She was quick for one ap-
parently so old and feeble, but not
quick enough to prevent Kimball
from seeing that the heavily breath
ing figure with the blood-soaked
bandage about its head was that of
Mrs. Emery Thayer.
Without a word he seized Made
line by the arm and hurried her out
into the night. There seemed to
be a crazy old crone there; / can't
find the way" he said vaguely,
hurrying her forward.
81 looked through the window.
Kim, wasn't that some one lying on
the bed?" she inquired.
He knew it would be idle to at
tempt to deceive her. "The old
woman covered the face of the pa
tient with a sheet Madeline, We
are not going step farther on this
wild goose chase; we are going
down the hill and back to the troll
ley, and heaven grant it may come
soon"
But before he had finished speak
ing shadowlike figures were upon
them, deft hands slipped out of the
darkness-how many of them Kim
ball never knew. There seemed to
be at least a dozen stealthy, almond
eyed figures, working with horrid
skill in absolute silence.
Kimball shouted and fought like
z madman till the gag was applied
and he was overpowered. Through
an agony that was Ike a waking
nightmare, he saw Madeline simi-:
larly bound and gagged, then. thrown
into farm wagon. A moment lat
er he was deposited alongside of her,
and the Celestials climbed in after
them. They had never uttered a
sound during the whole transaction.
The wagon creaked along the
heavy corduroy road. He remember
ed afterward that TIE devilish ORR
entails lighted cigarettes and smoked
with an aI-in-the-day's-work sort of
way that was as maddening as it
was incomprehensible.
Then, finally, the wagon halted
before a rambling colonial house
with white columns upholding its
qOrtico.
Desoiation looked from its sash
less window frames. The stucco had
fallen from the house in great, map
like sections, leaving a skeleton
like structure exposed to view. Kim
call grasped these details in a flash.
Then the wagon was driven to the
rear of the house, where the refec-
ton Of a huge fire glowed from a
furnace within what appeared to be
the termination of the "L."
The Orientals swiftly lifted Made
line from the covered wagon anu
bore her to the room illuminated by
the glowing retort.
Kimball prepared to follow, but a |
different fate was apparently IN
store for him, for the Celestials |
seized him and he was lifted from
the wagon, down a fight of rickety
steps to what appeared to be a |
vault or cellar. The Cinnamon pre-
serving their customary silence, II
vas pitch dark within, after a few
moments jolting progress Kimball
was deposited on what, from the
dampness and odor, appeared to be
vet earth. /
The sensation was horrible, to lie
there bound hand and foot, unable .
% cry out-and not to know what
.eas happening to Madeline. The
strength Of ten seemed to come in !
l1is despair. He bit at the thongs

that bound his wrists, working at
the knots with teeth that seemed to
be suddenly gifted with the deftness
of fingers, and finally one hand was
free. After that the lOosing of his
other bonds was comparatively I
simple feat. His revolver was safe
in his inside pocket, the yellow devils
had not taken that when they over
powered him.
He got to his feet, alive in every
fiber, rejoicing in his strength, and a
will to conquer every difficulty
swept through his veins like an elixir.
Some such feeling must the first man
have had when he awakened to a
new world the morning after crea-
ton.
Kimball felt along the brick wall
of the cellar that was cool and
damp - then another opening - and
be penetrated new areas Of darkness.
He listened and though he could see
nothing, hear nothing, some unsc-
countable primitive sense warned
him that the group he sought was
close by. Some blind instinct warn
ed him that almost within arms
reach he would find Madeline, and
feeling his way along that clammy
damp wall he soon became aware Of
the clatter of fire implements and,
following the sound, the glowing re-
tort was before him, at the end of
long passage.
He followed, revolver in hand, and
discovered three figures sharply sill
houtted against the glowing light Of
the furnace. Madeline, no longer
gagged, but with her hands still
bound; Fuller and Snyder, black and
grimy as a pair of smiths, stood ply
ing the girl with questions.
''You admit, then, that the chart is
not cOmplete-thst q certain radiO-
active substance is missing from the
fOrmUIa?"
81 admit nothing, l deny nothing"
the girl answered in a firm voice.
"YOu are playing a pretty danger
Gus game, Miss COnnOr, If you de-
cline to answer our questions 1t
would not be a difficult matter to
throw you head foremost into that
furnace"
Easy, yes: but what would you
gain by it, since the secret would die
with me-"
"Then you admit that the formula !

door of the laboratory, covering the !
