By means of a weird substance called amacrylate resin, a light beam can be bent around a man so that looking straight at him, you see the wall behind him and not his body! Here's how authors take advantage of the latest science. One of the most chilling and creepy mystery novels ever written takes advantage of this strange new substance. The story is "The Thing That Walked" by J.J. Des Ormeaux, appearing in CLUES-DETECTIVE STORIES for Sept. In this tale, which would have given Edgar Allen Poe the shivers, there is a movable screen of this queer resin and behind it a gibbering monster no man can see. (CLUES-DETECTIVE, A Street and Smith Publication will be on the newsstands August 16. 1938) READ COSMIC PUBLICATIONS for Enjoyment
