Plot tire.
Fourteen -year-old Blanche Burrett, a pro-
fessional model, was missed from her
mother's home, at Wandsworth, near Lon-
don, some weeks ago. In notifying the
police Mrs. Barrett said that her daughter,
at the age of three years, had been found
by Sir John Militia playing in Wands-
worth Common, and that he had copied her
quaint and pretty fact in his famous
Graphic print "Cherry Ripe."
Blanche was subsequently found at Ful-
ham, a London suburb, where she had beeu
serving as an artist's model.
The priub itt question was issued with
the Christmas Graphic in 1380.

Marechale Booth-Clibborn Writes of Her
Life Work.
La Marechale Booth-Clibborn, the leader
of the Salvation Army movement in France
and Switzerland for the past ten years, bas
just landed in this country, and will make
a grand tour, telling of the good work of
salvation.
The lady is about thirty-two years of
age. She is the eldest daughter of Com-
mander -in -Chief Booth, of London.
When the army made its first move to-
wards the salvation of countries apart froth
England, Mrs. Booth-Clibborn was selected
to lead in Francs and the cantons of Swit-
zerland.
Her forthcoming book is one of the groat -
est tributes to the work of the Salvationists
the army has ever known. It is to bo pub-
lished at No. 3 Rue Auber, Paris.
LA MARECIIALI. BOOTH-CLIBBOIM.
"The now tricolor," says Mrs. Booth-
Clibborn, "was first raised by the weak
hand of a woman in March, 1881, in a little
hall in a courtyard up an impasse in the
rowdy QuarLier du Temple in l'aris, at the
foot of Belleville. To -day there are 216
stations and outposts of the Army dotted
over twenty-three of the Departments of
Franco and ten of the Swiss Cantons, and
430 French and Swiss officers "raised on
the soil" are hard at work every day and
every eight in the week for the salvation
of their countrymen, aided by 300 local
officers (also converts of the work). More
than thirty other converts are working as
evangelists, pastors or colporteurs in con-
nection with the ehnrehes."
"The gloomy prophesryings," says the au-
thor, "that met Catherine Booth when she
came to Franco, the astlurances that it.
would he impossible to raise a solid, steady
fighting force out of the volatile French,
that it would be impossible to bring gay
Frenchwomen Ito be Miriama or Deborahs,
have all been swept away."

HOW MARG'I=„ pliD..
A Horp,ely Story From the Aptly L• lfo'of a
IIolueiy 'oople..
The Illinois Central train was half a hun-
dred miles out of Chicago, headed for the
city, and at a little station an old farmer
game aboard. Ile was a little, weazoned
mum, with a sensitive mouth half concealed
by art iron -gray beard. Ilia ill-fitting
clothe* were evidentlyleis most uucontfort-"
able best, and he moved awkwardly and
stiffly in thein. There were no vacant
eeats, and atter some hesitation.. he slid
softly into one occupied by a grave stranger,
intent upon his paper: The old man was
ill at ease, and as he turned his careworn,
haggard face toward the brown, flying
laudttseape it showed marks of some recent
trouble, The stranger laid aside his paper
after awhile and half -wistfully the old
man glanced at hint. He spoke at last,
with a strange huskiness:
"I'm goiu' to the city for the second time
in my life," Ile said, half startled at his own
voice.
"Yea?" and in the intonation of the
other's there was au invitation to go ou.
"The second tithe," replied the old man;
t'thirty years ago, collie June, I went there
for a w•odtlin' suit, and I'm a -coin' back
there to -day for ,s coffin tool a shroud fer-
tile little woman that -married rue. '
Hie voice broke, and, turning again to
the window, he looked out %purl the dull,
cold landscape and was silent ntany min-
utes. .
"You don't know what it is, mister; you
can't tutderstand," and he was crying very
softly atil hopelessly. "You don't know
what it is to live turd work 'longsi,lo a
woutau for thirty years, day, in and day
ant, to Find her nlw..ys patient and villin'
and workiu', Gini thea leave iter a•l.tyi0'
deal and cull wit it her warn -nut hands
crossed on hoe breast. You don't have any
blue what it is," and the sleeve of the old
:
was drawn rpulugeticr,lly across his
eyes.
e be'u tliu!tin' a ''loci tical since, last
night, when 9i,tr:;'ie dial; it kinder puts a
101(1 to bis tit;.%gots. It was just 0 little
after the tern u' tilt night, and nobody but
11(0 was w,: Lehi u', when she kinder woke up,
like as if si,e•d lr3'tr asleep.
" `Datil,' says .110, 'it's restful --so rest-
ful,' and I took hold r.f her hand; 'is that
you a-siuri:m', David'?' says she. 'Go on,'
but I !win t some• a word and co.thlu't
a-d„rte it -'go 0n, David,' says she, 'and
I'll be rcail1', .for fin so tire,.' And so she
we:a to sleep again and wakedup in eler•
pity.' _10,1 du you know stranger them
W0rcls 0' hcr'u have set me to titiukiit'.
Poor, tired soul ! and I never thought
how much she needed rest. 1 thou la
as 1 set there watcltiu' her breath
a -;;pia' out. 1..=t a;41st th.tt 10111110 we'd
made a inislake of it till. We never
litougltt of it while vie 1011)3 a -,v0(1. 1*' and
a-skimpiu'ald tt satin'--tryin' to make both
otitis meet (art t-) lay Ftp sontetititt' for the
cltillrett. But 1 thought (shout it all last
night whc'ii only oto and her was waitiu' for
the last. Site never had %o pleasure. She
never took no holidays nor visited like
other wil'_nnin,
"Sho raised the children, and slopped the
pigs, and milked co't:, and churned, and
cooked for harvest hands. I never knowed
nor thought how she did it all till 1 saw
them poor crossed hands with the little
o
t
' t 'ote iii! the
white ponies in 'ut . 5D
nei_'hbors put 'cut there, and it kinder
choked me when I looked. I knowcd she'd
never had no time for `posies when she
might have smelled 'eni. tike didn't have
time for nothi0' but the thorns, 'Meter, and
-that's what hurts rite.”
After a moment he looked up through his
tears.
"Some folks may 'low it won't do no
gourd, mister," and his voice grew stronger,
'but I'nl a-goin to see that she's put away
in soniethin' rich. \Vo wasn't ekimpin' and
Savin' thirty years for this, but I'm a-goin'
to have the bust umoney'Il buy. She's earn-
ed it, God knows: and she's Darned some -
thin' else -she's Darned that white raiment
that the good book says is 'washed in the
blood of the Lamb."
The old man's voice sunk into that
reverent whisper so common to the
God-fearing of his class at the utter-
ance of holy things, and in the silence
which followed he sunk into a rev-
orie. Ho was awakened from it only by the
stopping of the train at Van Buren street.
At the door of the car he shook hands with
his companion, and a moment later was
swallowed up in the crowd..
11 was pitltul-all of it. And yet there
was a passenger on that train who is the
better man for the recollection of the old
farmer's look and gesture, and for the
thought that there are silver handles to the
coffin that holds his sacred dust, lying out
under a dark mound amid the barren brown
of an Illinois prairie. -Chicago- Mail.
Right -Hon. A. J. Balfour, M, P. -
The December Review of Reviews re-
gards his inborn aristocracy as Me. Bal -
four's great strength, He is an aristocrat,
but he is not one of Lord Beaconsfield's
aristocrats who read nothing. He is, on
the contrary, a great but desultory reader.
He is the mint of letters of his party. He
has an excellent literary taste, and would
much prefer discussing books with Mr.
Morley or Mr. Gladstone over a dinner
table to debating politics with them in the
House of Commons Mr Bal-
four is more sworn at and sworn by than
any mart in politics, save Mr. Gladstone.
In some quarters it is regarded as the un-
pardonable sin to suggest that ltlr.
Balfour possesses a single virtue, or
is not laden down with every vice.
In others he is landed to the shies as if
he were a hero and a demigod. \\'e never
hear the last of his courage, his chivalry,
his even-handed justice, his pluck. All
this is very exaggerated. Idr. Balfour is
neither fiend nor archangel. Ile is a clever
young aristocrat, early trained to the ser-
vice of the State, who
has made the most of
a capital chance. He
has a considerable
literary gift, great
personal and social
charm, and a good
Scotch habit of appli-
cation and persist-
; ence. In the sub-
stance of his character
there is true grit, and
A..0. BALFOUR. in a tough fight any
ono who found himself in a tight place
would have good reason to thank his stars if
he had Mr. Balfour at his back. He is
