u
Washington, D. C. The American
reply to the British note questioning
the right of the United States to col
lect war claims from Qermany out of
benefits received by that country un
der the Dawes plan has been dispatch
ed to Ambassador Helios?; in London

Accompanying the committee report

he relapsed Into his newspaper.
Henry did not know that friend
(ieorge's vehemence arose from the
fact that he feared the very contin
gency predicted.
Helen Enderby had a very flapper
Ish daughter as pretty as two pictures.
Gsbrtells her name was, and that was
only one of many things about her
whkh George did not fancy.
Yet she fascinated George in spite
of himself.
"A nice wife for somebody," he
liked to say to himself, "when she
grows up."
He would he too old then most as
old as Henry Fowler wns now, who
was old enough to be the girl's father.
Yet Henry, at that, he reflected, often
took Gnbrlella out and thereby roused
In George a demon of jealousy.
He wns to dine this evening at the
Enderbys' as usual a habit started
at the time of the death of John En
derby, when he had stepped In as an
old friend of the family to shift some
of the suddenly imposed burden of
care from Helen's fragile shoulders. A
wonderful woman, Helen ! As unlike
Gahrlella as an Easter lily Is unlike a
giddy poppy.
After sirpper when Gnbrlella had de
parted somewhere or other with some
body or other, Helen confided certain
worries to him.
"I am troubled, George," she said,
"about my little girl. I am afraid she
Is getting too fond of Henry Fowler. I
don't know a finer man, but, George,
he's my age! Gahrlella should marry
a young chap. Even you are nearer
her age than Henry!"
- "Thanks, dear lady!" And George
nose aftd bowed. "But what can we
do?"
"Couldn't you go around a little
more with her yourself?" Helen put
the question tentatively. "Cut In on
Henry. If she really loves him, and
he Is really serious, that will show It
up. If not, she will get over what Is
probably mere Infatuation."
This was the moment for George to
piny safe and wash his hands of the
dangerous Gnbrlella. Hut did he? Quite
the contrary. He stood up and squared
his shoulders. "My dear Helen, I
stand always ready to do you nny
service in my power," he assured her
gallantly.
A very thorough person wns George
when once committed to a line of ac
tion, and he straightaway began a
complete absorption of Gabrlella's
time.
Came a day when the four of them
had motored to Clnremont in Helen's
car and were returning slowly rjnwa
the drive. Gahrlella, who was driv
ing, was dividing her attention be
tween the wheel and the panoramic
river lights. Suddenly down a steep
grade at the left plunged an uncon
trolled and empty car.
Instinctively Gabtiellfl pressed the
accelerator. As a result, the enr. In
stead of sinnshlng into the machine
sideways, crashed by and over the
bank, but as it did so the rear fender
engaged for n second the very end of
the fender of the Enderby machine,
throwing It violently across the road
where, bitting the curb, it toppled
ever.
Fifteen minutes later Hahrielln
awoke to consciousness and became
aware of a crowd of people, among
whom she sincled out Henry and her
mother. Where wns George? Killed,
of course. She stirred a trifle.
"Darling Hahrlella," came a voice In
her enr, and she found she was lying
in a man's arms. OeorgC wns alive!
Hut It was shock more than actual
hurt which had affected tier, nnd in a
few days she was herself again.
George, permitted to see her after a
week of suspense, wondered to see
how rotJ.v were her cheeks how nat
urally rosy !
Just after he had slipped n plati
num, Jewel-studded hand on her slen
der finger, "How did you discover you
loved me?" QSDfMla asked him.
"So long ago I can't reenll !" de
clared George fatuously and not al
together truthfully.
But later he hunted up Henry at the
cluh as a man who is in duty hound
to pay his debts.
"You win," be snid. "I'm engagef
