And in consequence, he found himsélf a ruined man. To use lis own words : "Thirtyâ€"three years ago I came to Manchester with threepence halfâ€"penny a pocket knifo and a plece of siring, and to. day,atter a lifo‘s toil F am not worth the coppers I started with," Addressing his wife he said : ‘ "My dear Mary, it is not for myself that I care so much, ‘tis for you ‘and the boy. T began with notlhiing aud Was used‘to rough fare from my crudie ; but with you two it is different." Poor. Herbert Balfor lhad not been at eollege twelve months when his misfortuncs began, Of course like all young men, he had his faults; but if all the truth were known, there is little doubt that he was quite as good as, if not better than, half those mad. Ie was not a reckless spendthrift, He did not squander money in gambling, He took no mean advantages of his father‘s generosity in the way of monetary allowâ€" ance. But, fortunately. Hetbert 1 an utterly idle and selfish yo of which nowâ€"aâ€"days, as ever, many specimensâ€"for he h; good and redeeming qualities Being able te command what needed, he could he imagined, : in for a profession just when it or not at all, for the matter of t] he felt so disposed. Like the generality of young people who have been brought up to have pretty nearâ€" ly everything their own way, Herbert Baiâ€" for was wayward and undecided as to the future. "‘There is herps of time," he would say ; ‘"Why on earth should I worry myself in arriving at any decision 2" Alas for the vanity of human hopes. Neither diyine, doctor nor barrister became this youthful idol |_ Herbert‘s school days over, he at onee |prepared to ente® upon college life. As | yet it remained undecided as to what proâ€" | fess‘on he should emtwace. "I am sure he would make an excellent / clergyman," said Mrs. Balfor. s ‘"Or a doctor," sait Mr. Bulfor. "fe reads so beautifally, and w ould look so very imposing in a surplice," said Mrs. Balfor. ‘ "He would become Attorneyâ€"General in no time ut all," cried the equally elated father, "He would be so gentle and sympathetie with the afflicted," said Mr. Balfor, "Imagine him at the bar!" exclaimed the enthusiastie mother. .;‘_ kss tm '““Yf‘ J°°* *orIBOr â€" ""So he shall, my Gear, so he shall t" sob. bed the doting mother. _ _ "He shall be as well educate gentleman in the land,"" said M with tears in his eyes, as he saw borne away by express train to t of stady. He was the idol of his pavents. â€"If ever a boy was spoiledâ€"by which we fean ‘inâ€" dulgedâ€"ITerbert Balfor was that boy. But for all that his father had the good ienso io draw a line somewhere, so, hard though it was to him and his good wife, they dispatchâ€" ad young Herbert t a firstâ€"class boarding school. ' ! Perhaps it would have proved for mnre’ beneficial for Herbert Balfor, had he comâ€" f menced life with even less than‘ the proâ€"‘ verbial halfâ€"crown, and after the inatinier of his father; but as it was, frofu: his cradle 4 upward he was surrounded.wifltl all lbe; comforts ‘that we poor inortals can deâ€" ; sire. | ) Herbert Balfor had been brought up with | great expectations. His father had been a f wealthy Manchester merchant, & man who "hud risen from nothing, as the saying goes. | He was wont to relate how he had walked fmto the great manufacturing city with | nothing in his pockets but threepenceâ€"kalfâ€" | penny, an old pocket knife, and a piece of [string. / With this Huvited eapititl he. hnd i started life on his own account, and a great | Islxccees he had made of it. In due course he had married, and, in displaying in matâ€" " | ters matrimonial the same good judgment {that he displayed in Dbusiness affuirs, he (fixed tpon as good a wife as any man ! could wish to possess. The offspring of | this union was an ounly son, the heir ofthis | overtrue tale. 7 | I would not change this happy scene For all the earth calls proudly great; I would not change my humble home For kingly rank, or qucenly state, I would not chonge my husband‘s love For all that éarth can give of fame ; « Nor berter his «pproving smile To wreathe & halo around: my name! I would not change my child‘s sweet glance For all the love earth‘s wealth could gain Nor change the certain bluss I feel, For all ambition might obtain.

" But fortune hbad not trick upon Herbert. Herbert Balfor, with his good wife and theif little baby boy, arrived in London, For six years he remained with his new enployer. Happy years were they,t00, in spite of the very Lumble way in which he was compelled to live.

Well, so he might, even though he was only a clerk in his coldâ€"blooded uncle‘s counting house ; but if he had aspired to anything so tempting, and won it into the bargain, he could not have gained m worthâ€" ier or better wife than she who so willingly shared his lot in the daye of his impecumiâ€" osity.

He bore, his unel inurmering, althoug less. ters, and the only advantage he gained by being there was the aequirement of business habits, and a slight knowledge of commer: cial transactions. When Herbertfentered his uncle‘s office, he knew nothing whatever of business matâ€" His uncle treated him as he treated the other clerks, in and after business hoursâ€" in fact, he behaved toward him as though there existed no relationship between them whatever. | He gave Herbert Ralfor a clerkship in his counting hbouse, ind paid him a salar y of 26 shillings a week.
