avoid shouting about a thing that it
seemed sacrilege to shout, II was going

the secretary of state, angrily; you

With due respect" said Carew, sit
ting back in his seat, 'it appears to
me to be the psychological moment"
The secretary of state for foreign
affairs seemed on the point of an an
cry outburst; then he recollected that
he was at the mercy of this cool young
man, and checked himself
Very well.'' he said, 81 will speak
to my sister.
Carew started the car.
IL gather by that. SIR" he said, that

man that you will do your best for

The statesman hesitated: then the

Lord Penlestone made no reply, his
face was white and drawn as they

as he stopped the car some little dis
lance from the gates. there's a sta
ton fly coming along the road to-
wards us now. 1t may be our man. If
he sees you he'll bolt, or cause trou-
bic in some way. Turn up your coat
collar and keep well down in the
seat"
The foreign secretary WINGED at the
masterful tones Of the younger man:
but this was no time to quarrel with
his companion.
Hes a short. pale-faced man. with
black hair and very short, closely
cropped side whiSkers. L"
But Carew was walking quickly to-
wards the entrance gates of Great
wood house. On reaching them he hes
itated. and then walked a few yards
farther on.
The cab came up at a rapid pace. and,
to Carew's joy, he noticed that, al
though the front part of the cab was
up the back portion of the roof was
down
I'll jolly soon see if it's the man
now, he muttered, and almost the next
instant he knew that it was.
Carew stepped into the road.
'Stop!" he cried: and. as the driver
pulled up the horse, the man in the
cab, with a cry of alarm, sprang TO

I'm sorry gasped the valet; Il
thought that"

quickly you can"
With trembling hands the valet paid
the man: and Carew noticed that he
had flat. square brown-paper parcel
under his arm. ard decided that it must
be the dispatch ease.
Follow me-" said Carew, and Re
boldly walked through the gates with
the nervous valet at his heels. A lit-
tie girl standing near the keepers
lodge curtsied to them, and the young
fellow nodded and smiled at her.
The two men walked up the ave-
nue. until a bend hid them from the
lodge
Then suddenly the young man in
front of him swung round; the valet
saw a different expression on his face
saw an arm suddenly shoot out, and
then he went down to the ground like
a log.
Carew, ignoring the fallen man, tore
a corner off the brown paper parcel
and caught a glimpse Of red leather
Then, with a quick glance at the
unconscious man. he hurried to the car,

mere wreck of his usual self
Without a word Carew handed him
the dispatch case, and the statesman
seized il as q drowning man will
clutch desperately at anything that he
thinks will save him
Good" said the statesman. ''Carew.
you have done us q great service. We
have need OF men like you; you should
go in for diplomacy. I have an indis-
tiEct recollection that on the way down
you mentioned the matter of maria !"
Carew flushed
Yes; but L"
I'VE need q smart young fellow at
the Berlin embassy. The remunera-
ton would be small, but the prospects
would be good. II should not object
to my niece marrying a man who was
going to do some good in the world,
and not be mere idler"
Carew thought over the remark for
the rest of the drive.
Mr. and Mrs. Carew are extremely
popular in Berlin society. though il is
Whispered that certain people greatly
dislike the young attache who has so
rapidly come to the front.

"The Dorking road" said lord Penle-

Carew nodded and increased the
speed. The situation appealed to him.
Lord Penlestone was a cold, unemotion-

Young Republicans Win.
The Young Republican rnoveme IT
was successful and of the 142 men who
sat in the 18th congress, 81 were de-

the FederalistS lost ground in both
houses of congress and when the newt
congress met the house was compossi
Of SO Federalists and los Democrats,
while in the senate there were only SIX
Federalists and 80 Democrats. The yic-fl
tory was complete, Young America was
in the saddle, the day of the fathers&
was done and the responsibility fo9
government now had passed to thef
sons.

While many of the fathers still were
to linger on the stage for several years
to come. this insurgent movement OF
1910 actually marked the beginning of

bringing Clay and Calhoun into party
leadership; it brought John Quincy
Adams into the Democratic fold: it de-

even in Massachusetts,; it made ineyi-

the national independence and the IA
