      The

      Ultimate

      Experiment

      by

      THORNTON DeKY

      No living soul breathed upon the

      earth. Only robots, carrying on the

      last great order.

      THEY were all gone now, The Masters, all dead and their atoms scattered to the never ceasing winds that swept the great crysolite city towers in ever increasing fury. That had been the last wish of each as he had passed away, dying from sheer old age. True they had fought on as long as they could to save their kind from utter extinction but the comet that had trailed its poisoning wake across space to leave behind it, upon Earth, a noxious, lethal gas vapor, had done its work too well.
