loon keeper, in this city, $50 for liquor,
offered him 100 shares of Bodie stock in
payment, remarking that it was the best
he could do. The saloon-keeper fsoured"
considerably, but took the stock, valued
then at 40 cents share, and gave it to
his wife. On the 18th of June he noticed
that Bodie was quoted at So per share, and
concluded to sell. He asked his wife
about the stock and she looked over a lot
of old papers, but was unable to find it.
Meanwhile the price went up higher
every day, and when it reaches $25, the
husband and wife were nearly crazy be-
cause they couldn't find the stock. And
still it wept up dollar or two, and the
higher it went the madden the unhappy
pair grew. One day the husband noticed
his little boy working on new kite. He
had finished pasting the paper over the
frame and was about to paste some ''pret'
ty pictures' on the face of the kite when
his father came along. a hasty glance
showed the old man that the pretty pic
lures were his lost Bodie stock. He sold
his hundred shares that very day anC
cleaned up $4,000.
And probably there was not madde
man in Virginia than this lucky salool
keeper the other day, when Bodie wen
up to $50 and when. had he held on unit
then, he could have ''eleared up So, ,OoO.-
