He took the flight at a bound and,, pistol in hand, made headlong for the, trader's living room, As he flung open the door, a scen¢ of utter chaos met his eyes. The door at the far end of the room was wide open. Between this and where he stood a table had been overturned, from behind which trickled a steady, dark stream. The chimney of the swinging lamp was shattered and the atmosphere was thick with smoke and soot. One window had been: wrenched clean from its fastenings and the bookcase in the corner had | fallen forward—arrested half-way by a chair—and had tipped its contents into a jumbled heap. He pushed the table back place and recoiled: in horror. A man in a turban of red and gold lay full on his face. Beneath him, lashed to a chalr, lay a second form that kicked and rocked to and fro in impotent fury. Pennington lifted Zara-Khan to one side. “Varney!" “Oh, it's me all right!"” growled the other. “Your man arrived just in time to prevent Mr. Chai-Hung mak- ing sure his knife settled both of us!

The maker of anything, if he is to win the plaudits of the world, must not only manufacture a superior product, but must also let folks know of his achievements. He must point out why his mouse-trap, his automobile or his shaving cream is ter than his neighbor’s. He must advertise. just bet: 'Advertising is the point of contact between the man who makes something and the man who wants something. - Through an advertisement, a manufacturer can tell you in a few short minutes all you want, to know about the article or the service he has the { to offer.
