PRAYER end Wabash Stock.
Wall Street News.


He was meek and humb le-looking man,
wearing a stand-up collar and a white tie,
and seeming to be always on the point of
giving out his text. After clearing his throat
and hesitating awhile, he suddenly asked:
''If l had a margin up on Wabash and if
Wabash should go down, down, down, do
you think that faith and prayer would have
any effect?"
''My dear sir" replied the man in the
white hat, as he came to a stand-still in his
walk 'if you had margin up on Wabash at
say fifty cents. and it went down to forty, all
the faith and prayers you could dump into
hundred-acre lot wouldn't save You from
putting up more or being closed out"
"Don't you believe ip the virtue of prayer,
sir?''
Not in business way on Wabash-no,
sir. If you are thinking of buying stocks,
sir, be ready with your margins, look out for
roorbacks watch the tickers and hire some
cheap man to do all the praying away back

he was so thoroughly in love he took himself
to the General without hesitation, and asked
permission to address his daughter.
Want to marry my daughter, do you?
God bless my SOUL What do you want to
do that for?''
Mr. Fitch modestly urged his affection,
adding the pleas usual to such occasions.
The General sat thinking, his face al
ternately softening and frownng as he
thought of his daughter and the presumptu-
Gus youth who wanted to take her away from
home and kindred. Suddenly he turned on
