Rich Mems Sons.

The President OF one OF the largest
banks said to us day or two since, that
"A rich mans son had just left his place,
and he was the last man of the kind he
would ever employ. The man was faith
full, honest, and fulfilled intelligently
and well all the duties required OF him;
but Just as he had become accus-
toned to his work, he found out it was
too confirming, and raw clerk had to be
put in his place. a bad look this for
rich young men; but it is the old story
repeated for the thousandth time. Ii
rich mems sons will not endure the
drudgcry by which nearly all their faith
ers secured money and position, they
must take secondary place in the next
generations; and oftener they drop out of
sight amid the idle, worthless herd, if
indeed, they escape the association with
loafers and criminals. What say the
labor reformers to facts like these, for
facts they are beyond question. Nearly
every man in any leading position III the
community began life poor Let the
sons of rich men take warning and 90 to
work honestly and faithfully every day
if they hope to fill the positions honora-
blv held by their fathers. Tribune.

Silk Photographs.

1t is stated that firm of silk manu-

obtaining photographs upon silk. Ever
since the discovery of that wonderful
art efforts have many times and oft been
made to secure the result that has at
last been realized. Under the circum-
stances it can scarcely cause surprise
that the process has not been dvulged,
though there is ground to believe that
the prints are made with salts Of silver
