Iveyor. From this humble occupa- tion he rose rapidly. During the war of the rebellion, he was chief commander of the American armies and won for himself the name of "The Father of our Country"
 Compared with him, how the other figures of that period, even the greatest, shrink and diminish. The spiritual dignity of his altruism sits not on Franklin. His breadth and "harity of judgement belong neither to Hamilton or Jefferson. George Washington, whose birth day we shall celebrate tomorrow, was in e class by himself and we'll deserves the name of Father of his Country"

CHAPTER v.
Mr.. Brown Of New York.


In another moment n slight, wiry
breezily into the room. The first glance
told that he was an American. His
nervous aIertness, his assurance, the
slightly slOuchy but nevertheless ag-
gressive manner in which he held him
self, differentiated him Enthusiastically
from the other men I'm. Ethels sitting
room.
Guy rose TO greet him. He had in
vited the American to join the party,
for Guy was almost like one Of Sir
Georges family.
"Hello, Charller' he exclaimed with
undoubted enthusiasm.
And straightway he introduced the
newcomer to Ethel Willoughby, to
whom, as hostess, Guy infallibly turned
first.
you remember my mother?" Guy
asked him then.
"You bet / dor Mr.. Brown said
heartily as he shook hands with that
smiling lady. Didn't we have n bully
time in Chinatown?"
Rather Mrs. Falconer replied;
and they both laughed over their remi-
| niscence.
To Henry Streetman the American
bowed pleasantly enough. And toward
Sir George he displayed the utmost af.
liability.
"Glad to know you. Sir George" he
said as he gripped his hand. IL want
to warn you, though, in case the Others
haven't, that I'm a newspaper man
a journalist, think you say over
here"
"You do brighten me-" Sir George
replied with a twinkle in his eye. "TvC
rather terror of your profession, es
pecially when they come from the
States"
Charley Brown grinned at him.
Don't worry, Sir GEORGE Guy I'm
terposed. Charlie doesn't mean all h
says"
Fathers only spoofing you," Georg!
assured the reporter.
"Spoofng? Spoofng?" Mr.. Brown
repeated in a somewhat bewildere'
fashion. He had met many words
during his short stay in London, tina
he had never before encountered II
the English language.
But his quick mind was not long a
fault. "Oh, sure! Kidding-that's il
But. Sir George, don't blam
you. We do butt in a good deal int
things that don't actually concern Il
or the public, but happen to belon
to n newspaper where it isn't Grim

tleman; so don't think I'm maxim
