HE BARS WOMEN.
Why One StOckbrOker VIII Not Do
Business With Them.

Business With Them.
"Deliver me from any more wheat
deals with women" said the commission
man YEARLY. Just read this letter. Do
you see what she says? Calls me u rob-
Der and says she will prosecute me. She
won't do that. Of course, because il she
did her folks would find out about her lit
tie speculation, and l know her well
enough to understand that she wouldn't
let it out If she could help it, and she
couldn't prosecute me anyway.
"Then look at the rest Of it. One would
think from that letter was running the
biggest skin game on earth. But l sup
pose | ought not to be surprised. l new
or saw woman yet who didn't want
odds Of million to one in her favor if
she took it into her head to put up lit
tie money on something.
"I'll tell you what brought out all that
abuse. This woman decided some time
ago to trade little in wheat. She wrote,
sending me $50, with instructions to buy
her 1000 bushels. did so, but the price
of wheat went down almost as soon rs |
had telephoned the order over to the firm
at the board. ! made up my mind that
she shouldn't lose if l could help it, even
if had to help her out myself. So be-
gan margining for her OH my own ac-
count. put up $40 without being wor-
ried much, for thought the price would
so up soon, but it didn't, and l had to
spend another $40 to save my own mar
gin. There was $40 gone; just to protect
her little old $50. Before the market be-
gan to come up again had put in $50.
Then one day the price came up very
gradually. As soon as it got to a point
where could save myself | sold out, as
any wise man would have done in my fix.
AS it happened, too, the price went back
just after had sold out, proving the wis
dom of MY course.
swell, l informed my client of what |
had done, surprising she would be de-
lighted at the interest ! had taken and
at my attempt TO save her investment
for her. You can judge for yourself from
that letter how well pleased she is. Says
l am a robbcr, after took all those pains
to put up that money to save her old $50.
No: | guess | won't do any more trading
with women. They expect too much. -

Here is an interesting leaf from an au-
thor's diary:

Made almost enough to pay the butcher"
"Sold short story and came within an
ace of making enough to pay $40 on the

"Wrote an obituary on an ancient citi-
zen and had Maria's shoes mcnded with

to buy a gallon Of kerosene OIL"
An author, being hard pressed by his
creditors, wrote to an editor for whom
he had done some work:
"Plcasc send check at once, as my gas

The candid editor replied in this brief
fashion:
so is mine. God help us all"-Atlan.

The Street Contest

The Sun Of this morning contains
the following, which is worth more
than passing thought:
1.-THE little stage play-the retir-
ing for consultation the meeting
OF the Street and Sewer Directors
Yesterday, was not only in bad
taste, but was entirely unnecessary.
Public business should be publicly
conducted. Director Carter, who
has been regarded as the dissenting
member of the Directorate has eth
er been entrapped by his more sa-
gacious colleagues, or has Willingly
played into their hands. He was
apparently the member who was
not ready to act at the opening oil
the session. He objected to decisive
action. Mr.. Simmons and Mr.. Web
ster said they were ready, to end
the dispute by deciding it. Mr..
Carter's objection prevailed and
the directors retired for further
consultation. When they retired.
they were in disagreement. When
they returned to open session they
were in agreement. Which won!
Did one beat two, or did the two
capture the one! The decision to
refuse. after half an hour OF care
full discussion and consideration,
grants Of franchises to either OF the
railway companies was unanimous.
The delay continues. Aside from
the absurdity OF the situation, it
leaves an open door for suspicion
and. discreditable surmises. This
quality Of the situation is aggrava-
ted by the position recently assum.
ed by Mr.. Carter. He objected to
being Murrayized by his colleagues,
was anticipating treaty offensive
and defensive with Mr.. Simmons
successor, unless he was taken into
the confidence of his present col
leagues. Has Mr.. Carter given up
this anticipation? If so, why? Has
he been taken in Appearances
indicate an affirmative answer to
these inquiries. That at least is
the mathematical equasion OF the
dispute two beats one. In this
equasion popular sentiment has been
ignored. the Board Of Trade has
been snubbed, an injury to the bust
ness interests of the city continued
and the laws of the State set aside.
A subordinate city department OF
administration has assumed SUI
preme Legislative power and estab-
llshed a triune autocracy.
