TRUE TO THE END.-Lady Franklin
holds a foremost place among the faith
full and true. When her husband, Sir
John Franklin, did not return at the
expected time from his last expedition
to the North Seas, apprehensions begun
to be seriously entertained respecting
his fate and that Of his brave compan-
ions. Lady Franklin offered rewards of
$4,000 and $4,000 to any persons discOv-
ering or affOrding relief to the missing
party, or making any extraordinary eff
fort with this object. She appealed to
the American people to assist in the
search, and she herself determined upon,
organized, and to a great extent de-
frayed the expenses of two expeditions
to seek for traces of the missing party.
For years she refused to give up hope,
and it was only when Captain McClin-
took returned with what were cOnsid-
cred full proofs of his death, that she
rested. in her endeavors to prosecute the
search. To quote the words of Sir Rod
erick Murchison: Nothing daunted by
failure after failure, she persevered
through years of hope deferred with a
singleness of purpose and sincere de-
votiOn which were truly unparalleled" :"
The little ship "PandOra," which is
now acting as the medium of cOmmuni-
cation between England and the pres
ent Arctic explorers, was fitted out in
great part at her expense before her
death,

Barbara Uttman.

She sleeps in the church-yard at An
naberg. Under an old lime-tree rises
the tomb erected to her memory by the
piOus Annabergers. An it is inscribed
''Here lies BARBARA UTTMAN, died II Janu-
ary, 1919, whose invention OF lace in the year
1861 made her the benefactress OF the Hartz
Mountains.
" An active mind, a skilful hand
Bring blessings down on the Father-land."
The honor of introducing pillOw-lace
making into Germany is by common
consent accorded to Barbara Uttman,
or rather Barbara Etterlein, for that
was her maiden name. She was born
in 1914, in Etterlein, small town in
SaXOny, which derives its name from
her family. Her parents, burgheIs of
Nuremberg, had removed to the Saxon
HartZ Mountains for the purpose of
working some mines. Here Barbara
married a rich masteT-miner, Christie
pher Uttman, of Annaberg. 1t is said
that she had learned the art of making
pillOw-lace from a native of Brabant-a
Protestant lady, whom the cruelties of
the Duke of Alva had driven from her
country. Barbara had observed the
mountain girls engaged in making net
work for the miners to wear over their
hair; she took great interest in the
work, and, prOfiting by the knowledge
| derived from the Brabant lace worker,
she succeeded in making her pupils pro-
duce, first, fine-knitted tricot, and af-
! terward a kind of plain lace ground. In
/ 1861, having procured aid from Flan-
ders, she set up, in her own name of
! Barbara Uttman, a workshop at Anna
| berg, and there began to make laces of
various patterns. This branch of indus
| try soon spread from the Bavarian from
tier to Altenberg and Giessen, giving
employment to thirty thousand persons
and producing a revenue of one million
thalers. Barbara Uttman died in 1875,
leaving siXty-five descendants, children
and grandchildren. 1t is said that when
she was taking lessons of her Brabant
teacher, after she had completed her
first attempt at making lace ground or
reSedu, her teacher took the small piece
in her hand and carefully counted the
stitches which Barbara had made.
"Why do you count the stitches ?''
inquired Barbara of the gentle lady.
Because" she replied, az wish to
know how many of your children will
weep at your funeral"
"How many ?" again inquired Bar.
bara, never doubling the fulfillment o.
the prophecy, for that was in the Mid.
die Ages.
"Sixty-fve," was the answer.
Barbara believed her friend, and so il
actually came to pass.-Enlity y Bat

"Would you improve them ?''
"Indeed would. I'd teach both boys
and girls the ethics of matrimony, finan-
cially considered I'd keep them to-

give them opportunity to get mutually
acquainted. Then I'd see that each

"You're learning lessons rapidly, my
