WIFE AND MOTHER.

Cornelius Vanderbilt ia, had the courage
to marry the woman Of his choice in spite
of the dIspleasure of his parents who sought
to punish him by reducing his Inheritance
He has lately passed through the valley OF
the shadow in the clutch, of typhoid fever
but also In the tender embrace OF the wife
Of his bosom whose Manifestations finally
rescued him from the grim monster.
Meanwhile his mother was abroad and
satisfied herself by cabling inquiries ad.
dressed to him, instead of his wife, though
she must have known that he could not
personally receive or answer any communi-
cation. Finally she has returned when he
is out OF all danger, but has not called on
her son.
All of which, II may be said with some
show OF propriety. is nobody's business.
Still, the public is 20 accustomed to dis
cusslng the affairs of the big folk of finance
and politics that people will talk.
Anyhow, the ears Of Mrs. Vanderbilt, ST.
must DO tingling at the Ill things and the
cheeks of Mrs. Vanderbilt, Jr., must be
glowing at the kindly things which are borne
upon the air.
All the world loves a lover, and by the
same token all tho world loves faithful
wife and despises hard-hearted mother. Il
Cornelius Vanderbilt and his wife were en-
tirely cut off from fortune. their state woulC
be more enviabe than that OF the mothe
whose anger was unappeased even in tn
hour OF her sons extremity.
Happily such stubbornness--it might b
called wickedness--is rare In persons o
high or low estate. Usually mother Low
errs on the other side. II indeed It is eve
error for parents to make the best Of tn
marital choice of their children. Materna
forgiveness is so nearly unfailing that tn
exception is shocking. In contrast with
the devotion of the wife is so beautiful tina
It displaces all meaner sentiments and leave
only pity for the miserable mother who mus
now and hereafter drink the bitterness G
her own folly.
