(Continued from page Six)
She peered in; saw only three old
women. No one could be in hiding,
none approach without being seen,
Palmyra• entered, advanced toward
the central posts,glanced interestedly.
Suddenly, something 'dropped past
her eyes, and the three old women
hurled themselves at her,
So unexpected the attack'froin such
as these, in an open shed such as
this, at almost the settlement's busi-
est and most public spot, that the
girl was caught unready, And before
she could move a muscle, cry out,.
her throat was cbmpresscd-a terr-
ible choking pressure. Shefought
for breath. `-1"hen, her antis pinioned;
came relief and a fierce warning: "No
'peakey, no 'peakey!" At the moment
of the - onfall her guide, still behind
her, had dropped round her throat a
fibre loop, a brutal tourniquet with
which she could, instantly, be stran-
gled into silence—or death.
The women, fearing Van might
soon arrive, prepared to take their
prisoner immediately away.
At first Palmyra thought this im-
possible.
But now she made a discovery.
Though the thatch was so notorious-
ly to the forefront as to seem above
suspicion, the high wall of the police
compound ended directly opposite,
and turned inland, leaving between it
and the blank wall of the trader's a
three-foot lane. This path, she re-
collected being told, ran back for a
half a mile, a mere,•passageway be-
tween the wall and the mangrove
swamp upon wh'ieh she had looked
. down from her mission window,
And the month of that hidden path
was no more than twenty feet dis-
tant.

Until an• alarm had been given the
people would be unsuspicious. The
French trader across the way had
locked up his place and gone out to
breakfa"st. The native passersby were
comingin detached groups. Palmy
ra's captors need only wait until no
one was near, Then, closing round
her, they could ' whisk her across,
screening her with one or two of
the ,ever-present umbrellas, raised
either against a shower or the equa-
torial sun,
But almost at the moment of the
sortie there canie an interruption.
One of the old women, stooping
down to glance out, discovered the
girl's father and mother and Con-
stance Crawford approaching — al-
ready close. Panic ensued. If her
captors had not been dangerous be-
fore, they certainly were now.
The prisoner would have screamed.
Unconsciously, she extended her
lungs to take in the necessary air.
But, on the second, that fibre cord
cut deep into her flesh.
Gasping, she was thrust under the
mosquito net; thrown flat, head on
bamboo pillow. Two of the hags fol-
lowed her into the netting, sat press-
ed against her' on either side. These
snatched off her hat and veil, threw
over her a covering.
Meanwhile the crone who had lur-
ed her here had taken a machete and
seated herself on the patch of grass
before the house.
Within the house, Palmyra's two
guardians had begun a low -voiced
singing. She perceived herself as a
sick woman. These two kindly old
souls sat inside the net to comfort
her, while, before the hut, a third
waited ready to answer solicitous in-
quiry. And any commotion of strug-
gle which might catch the transient
eye would be taken for a round of
that massage which is the native's
cure-all.
Her captors had taken impish ad-
vantage of that trait in human nature
which causes ratan never really to
look at a thing in plain sight.
She was intensely alert. At the
slightest opportunity she meant to
scream, to fight. Since her escape
from Burke she herself had carried
a small' automatic pistol. At the first
chance she'd use it.
Now, however, she saw Van Buren
Rutger approaching, and sank back.
again. The others had not known.
Van did know.
But just as the trio had strolled
away and the newcomer alinost,
reached the house, here, unexpected-
ly, was' the mean Martin. He : ran up
to Van, Excitedly he spoke.
"Say, mister. . . Your lady friend,
That red-headed girl,"
Van drew back stiffly. "Miss Tree
is in this house," he said.
Martin was vehement. No, that
she wasn't! Outlaw natives had her,
Hurrying her away.
Van stared, incredulous, yet alarm-
ed,
"1 got it straight," cried Martin,
"There's twenty of 'em or snore—all
with guns. And -they'rerunning her

WHAT DOES YOUR
DOCTOR KNOW?
When an individual decides to be-
come a doctor, he or she faces a long
course of preparation. The principal
requirement is education in subjects
embracing the sciences upon which
much of medicine is•based.- Because
of the rapid development of all
science during the past years, and in
order to improve the training of those
to whom human life is to be entrust-
ed, the period of training has been
considerably. lengthened. When the
medical graduate is given a license
to practise, he or she is qualified to
render certain definite services be-
cause of the knowledge acquired.
Your doctor knows the structure of
the human body and how it functions
when it is normal or in a state of
health. Those who think of their
d •
octor as one to call when there is
illness in the home, forget that he
knows about the well person. It is
because of his knowledge of the nor-
mal body, and how it can be kept
normal, that he is able to provide a Metter.
service to humanity in keeping peo-''
ple well. It is for this reason that
