The special evil Of the day lies not
SO much in the cupidity and rOscality
o.,, ofprrmoters or the
Investments. g"l'IOlII'y of is'
''"'"'" norunt investors
(neither of which class is of very mod
ern origin, Hs in the fact that the
general public and the brokers, in
stead of adhering TO their appropriate
functions, are now eager to grasp at
the reward which normally belongs to
the jobbcr without themselves per-
forming any Of the usual functions in
return for which he Is legitimately en-
titled to a reward. In one aspect, says
the Monthly Review, this springs from
the prevailing spirit of the times, which
hopes to enjoy the fruits, pleasures
and rewards properly resulting from

spending duty, II might in this re.

of that which might he an influence Of
real service to society 1t mfiGts all the
greater damage upon our commercial
life. For what are the classes of
undertaking in which the investor may
place his money? A very rough classi-
llcntion would indicate three groups.
There is the investment which Is
more or less secure, the income derived
from which is small but practically as
sured, the capital value of which is
not likely to be seriously affected, and
which for the sake of breyity we will
describe us security" Then there
Is what may properly be called "spec-
ulation," risk in which the chance
OF failure is abnormally great, but in
which the hope of phenomenal sue
cess invariably appears. In between
these two classes there lies group
which partakcs Of the nature of each,
and is optly described as an "ad-
venturous investments" something
which possesses both the quasi-perma-
nence of an investment, and also some
OF the risks and possibilities OF the
speculntion Such Il classification Is Of
course II very rough one, and there are
infinite gradOtions aud variations of
type within these broad limits.

George Totten, of Warwick, n. V, un-

beating, was ON his way to the Jail at
Goshen, The train stopped at Grey

started. The prisoner explained the
circumstances to the conductor, who
demanded his ticket, and, when it was
not forthcoming, put 'rotten off at the

The wife of one Wall street broker
learned curious lesson during the
A., rs..,. recent stock whirl.
One day her hus-
band saw a chance
TO make good turn and plunged,
says New York exchange, Before
going home that evening he was $751;
900 richer, at was like finding it,"
says the broker, "nnd when | went
home | asked my wife to come down
with me and buy n $4,000 necklace |
had admired, She said that such
purchase would be eXtrnvagnnt and
that she really did not care for such
n necklace. | knew my own weak
ness for blowing in money that was
velvet, but | could not convince her
that II was wise to buy the necklace.
The next morning when the ex-
change opened that $4,000 bothered
me. | plunged again, not on my
judgment but because | happened to
have the money, and this time | not
only lost 1t all, but half as much more,
| have never felt flush enough since
that time to indulge in diamond neck
nces. My wife has always said that
it wus her fault and that il | ever Of
fer to buy iewelry for her again she
will accept, even If we have no bread
in the house."

Curious things are left in pNwnshops
and the Philadelphia Record tells of
one OF tho oldest: "An artificial leg
is one OF the unredeemed pledges in n
downtown pawnbroker's establish"
ment, The owner came in one day
with couple Of friends, said the pro-
prletor, recently. They had all been
drinking and had run out Of money.
The one-legged man wanted loan on
his wooden leg. | did my best to dis
suade him, but it was no use, and
finally had to give in. He only wanted
SO on it, and let him have the money,
Well, he took of his leg, handed 1t over
and hoped out on one foot, his two
friends supporting him on either side,
They were all laughing as though it
were a huge joke, OF course expect
ed that he would turn up in day or so
and get his leg out of pawn, but he
never came back. dare say he had
another at home, but it seems strange
that he has never redeemed this one "
