SYNOPSIS.

Georgy Wagstaff, daughter Of Sir
George. Of the British admiralty, hints at
liaison between her governess, Ethel
Willoughby, and Henry Streetman. Ethel
denies it. Henry Streetman calls on Ethel
and while waiting for her talks to Brews-
ter, Sir Georges butler who Is a German
spy, about his failure to get at admiralty
papers in Sir Georges possession. He
phones to German secret service head
quarters. Streetman, the German spy. and
Roeder (alils Brewster, the butler) are
discussing the possibility of war. When
Ethel appears he tries to force her to get
from Sir George knowledge of the sailing
orders to the British fleet. Though she
believes him a French instead of Ger
man spy, she refuses until he threatens
her. She begs him to announce their Sc
cret marriage. as Georgy is suspicious,
but he puts her off. At tea Georgy and
her lover. Guy Fulconer, tease Sir George,
and Streetman makes an awkward at
tempt to talk politics. Streetman, the
German spy, Sir George Wagstaff, British
naval official, Ethel Willoughby. secret
wife Of Streetman, and others are having
tea at the Wagstaf home. The party is
discussing play. Charlie Brown, news
paper man of New York, entertains the
tea party with his views on the threat
ened war in Europe. Guy Falconer de-
clares that If war comes he will go to
Cuba His mother and Sir George reprove
him. Charlie says Guy is spoefing. Capt
Larry Redmond Of the Irish Guards, calls
on Ethel. The two had been undeclared
lovers. She tells him Of her marriage and
he tells her Streetman is & German spy
with family in Berlin.

England Is not involved in the war,
then Churchill alone is responsible for
his action and his public career will be
ended. If England goes to war, then
the English navy has gained at once
an early and tremendous advantage"
"But it means that Churchill believes
England will fight" Ethel said.
''That England will have to fight"
Sir George corrected her.
'Then the fleet-it did not dispense? ?"
she questioned. "Where has it gomez"
Sir George saw no reason for telling
them half truths.
'The most powerful fleet the world
has ever known has gone to the North

German navy, and that it will do. I'm

CHAPTER TX.
For kinu and Country!

For King and Country!
Captain Redmond was the first to
break the ensuing silence.
"Good God! Then it's come at last"
he cried in ringing voice.
"And the feet! What Of the English
feet?" Ethel Willoughby exclaimed, as
her quick mind turned inevitably to
that most vital factor Of Britain's de-
Tense. It was pure patriotism that
prompted her question. For the mo-
ment all thought Of Henry Streetman
and his constant importuning vanished
completely from her reckoning.
Sir George swept the little company
with rapid glance.
"You are all practically members Of
my fAmily-at least I regard you as
such," he said. Redmond, you are an
officer in his majesty's service-what
say is in absolute confidence"
Larry stood stifHy at attention.
"Of course, Sir George!' he an
swered.
Then Sir George told them what
Henry Streetman would have given
his soul to know.
"Winston Churchill went to Ports
mouth this morning. The British feet
sailed this afternoon under sealed Or
ders and Churchill has offered his
resignation as first lord Of the admi-
ralty."
At that terse statement Ethel Will
loughby sank slowly upon a chair. In
their excitement the others did not no.
tice her agitation. Nor could they have
interpreted it had they OWNED it.
Something in the manner of an inspira-
ton had come to her-a scheme, plot,
stroke of genius perhaps. At all
events, she saw in fash how she
might yet serve her country in a man
ner that is granted to few women-or
even men.
Meanwhile Captain Redmond pom
dered upon Winston Churchill's Pc
culiar action.
"But why, Sir George-why?" he
asked.
Because he had no authority from
| parliament to give such orders. II

said with bitter self-reproach. It hurt
him terribly to see her so torn by her
emotions. "There, there, my dear!
Don't cry" he said, patting her arm
with the tenderness Of a woman.
'Oh, let me! Let me!' Ethel cried,
for the blessed vent Of tears had CONF
to her at last. "Oh, Larry, why
couldn't it have been different?'
"Faith, don't know, my dear! But

conviction Of man who would always
do right. "We love each other too
much to be more-or less-than the
best of friends"
From the hall outside, voices came
to their ears. And Ethel had scarcely
dried her tears before their friends
had returned to claim them for the din
ner party.

claimed as he came upon them. "Still

Il don't think can go, after ALL"
Ethel told them then. She knew that
she was in no condition for the banter
ing give and take Of dinner-table con-
versation.
"Oh, Ethel" Georgy cried in obvious
disappointment. And "Oh, Ethel! Don't
spoil the party!' Mrs. Falcouer urged.
"Come on, Larryr' said Guy. by
George, you do look glum-just the
same as I did when Georgy first re-
fused me. Now I've got used to it."
While they were trying to persuade
Ethel to join them, Sir George Wag-
staff entered the room. He had heard
their voices as he was passing through
the hall on his return from his hurried
visit to the admiralty. And since he
had news that he knew would prove
Of great interest to them he had
stopped on his way to his own quar-
ters.
"By Jove Redmond! I'm glad to see
you!" he cried as soon as he caught
sight of the returned wanderer.
"Thank you, Sir George! It's good
to be back" Larry replied.
"As. B1itisher, you've come home
at the right moment" Sir George told
him gravely as he sheok the captains
