m1Ll1oNA1RE's SON WHO WORKS.

Young MIR. Rockefeller Sets an Ex-
t.mple to Sons of Fortune.
Youeg Rockefeller, the son Of the
Standard Oil king, celebrated his
twenty-second birthday lately. He is
being fitted so that he can step into
his fathers business at any time, a
position which means the management
of one Of the wealthiest corporations
in the world. Eight and nine hours a
day are spent by the young man in
the Standard Oil building. He works
harder than the average SIS q week
clerk, and has already displayed rare
business tact. He is conservative by
nature, and is opposed to any kind Of
speculation, two traits which his faith
er has been careful to cultivate. 1t is
continually pointed out to him that In
speculation he has everything to lose
and little to gain, and that his particu-
lar aim must be to preserve the exist
ing wealth Of the family rather than
try to increase it in ways other than
the accumulation Of income. Young
Rockefeller Is considerably interested
III religious matters and the philan-
thropic schemes Of his father, and he
is like him In one respect-in his fond
ness for fast driving horses. In APP
pearance he ia m ordinary looking
young man, plainly dressed, and wear
ing no jewelry. He attends to much Of
Lis fathers business and now the elder

days In the week.--New York Adver.

mo, true" pursued Mrs. Willoughby,
You would not dare to do that, for my
poor boy would demand Of you how It
came that he did not bear your name
that through all his boyhood he had
never seen your face-and how 1t was
that, grown ut length to manhood 1t
had not been your voice which had
said to him, My son, be Just and hon
est throughout your life-never be
guilty Of a bad action, for only re-
pentance and remorse can come from
it."
The baronet, unable longer to con-
tinue speaking In another's name con-
fessed himself the guilty and repent
ant man he really was. And had he
not been punished for his crime? Did
he not now deserve some pity, since,
q father to that only son, he must to
that son always pass as stranger!
And Mrs. Willoughby had, for the
last few minutes, well understood that
she was speaking to SIR Loghlen
O'Meara himself, and calmly and firm-
~ told him that she had already de-
tected who in reality he was.
And the baronet entreated that she
would spare him further reproaches
for the past, since, from the moment
VI SU1Ay, HIS CUuSC1CuC0 uUV never
ceased to torture him. a
For his crime he had, he said, but
the excuse Of neglected youth, which
had received but evil counsels; he had
been reared to think that all beneath
him had been born for the service Of
such as he.
But he vowed, and 1t was true, that
he had loved poor Rosa Willoughby;
fh0t SHn11nH 70 Ssr1o
woman his father had chosen for him,
his heart had been with Rosa then
and always, who, before heaven and to
wife.
She, who had been forced upon him,
dead, every effort was then set on foot
and continued year after year, even
until the present time for the discoy-
cry Of the unhappy girl he had 90
shamefully wronged-and by a crime
for which, but that he had removed the
evidence which would convict him, he
had been sent to herd felons Of less
lofty birth than himself but above him
',r the courage which had been re-
4t.ired to accomplish the guilty acts OF
which they stood condemned.
He had hoped, the baronet said, to
find Rosa living and free, and then
had it been his purpose truthfully to
ratify before the world those vows, Of
which the first utterance had been, on
his part, but shameful mockery;
though Rosa, in believing that all was
real, was justly to heaven and to her.
self his wife.
And Mrs. Willoughby trembled and
was silent. Long years had passed
since that fatal time which Sir Logh-
lens presence now SO wildly recalled
to her memory. She had grown old,
and was now near to heavens gates,
which would, she hoped and trusted,
open to receive her. Cursings and up
braidings were not for one SO closely

would now have pardoned her treach-
erous lover of days long past and gone

self could not be without mercy for
sincere repentance, nor without pity
for life whose lustre had been dim
