Something of that sort has re- gently happened in Wall street. The gamblers there, losing the sup port of the country. fell into a wild play with one another. with the consequence that stocks of great corporations went down enormous ly. and the newspapers figured , "losses" of hundreds of millions of dollars.
 , At the same time the country has never been so well off. 1t was an apt illustration of what happens when the public quits speculating and when all these huge games of chance bump against one another in the mad life which surges in Wall street when the booms quit booming.
 The pleasant old gentleman in the cartoon who gazes at it all has worked hard and has put his money where he can lay his hands on it. He has patronized no get-rich- quick schemes. He has not bought stocks on margins or in dulged in wild fancies.
 So he looks at 1t all with the calm interest of the philosopher who wonders why men do such things and what they find in 1t to compensate them for the wear and tear upon their souls and nerves.
 We have in this man the true representative of American finance-the man who stands be- hind the national and savings banks, the man who believes in home industries and in a safe per centage on his investments. the man who sees in life something bet ter and sweeter than the mad race after fickle fortune.
 No one need be so foolish as to underestimate the greatness of Wall street.
 More money flows through it than through any other channel in the world. It is the home of mil lions. It is the rallying point of those great fortunes which reach, through the arteries of trade and transportation, the wealth of the world. Everything touches there in some way or another.

Let us go to the county fair.
 It has been a good year. In spite Of the rains, the crops are above the average and the prices have been profitable. More money has come to the farmers, and there has been more to spend for the com forts and luXuries of life. The rail roads have been taxed to their ut most to haul the traffic. The ex- ports have jumped up millions of dollars. New building Is going on everywhere except in localities blighted by strikes.
 There IS new paint on the barn and real money in pocket.
 So, as we travel toward the grounds, we go in prosperous con- pany, and when We reach there we find crowds of contented, happy and smiling people. They do not look as though famine or disaster was in their neighborhood. There are the usual grumblers, of course, but even they admit that times are nothing like as bad as they have been i'll previous years.
 Off in a corner of the grounds are a lot of slick men who have va rious games which they have work ed with success for the past year or so.
 They are ready for a new crop of victims.
 But we find our good friends so well satisfied with things that they let the slick gentlemen alone. By and by time hangs heavy on the hands of these adventures. and they begE. to play one another's games.
 The great crowds keep away from them, and so they are left to swindle themselves.
 Of course, trouble soon results, and, judging 9on the financial re- turns in that 5Exticular corner, the country ha@ suddenly lost its pros perity.
 As matter of fact. the honest business men and the average citi- zens arc 2 good deal better of, be- cause they are keeping their money instead of feeding it to the slick gentlemen in games of speculation.

 Within the present year there have been fully a hundred detaica- tlons by men trusted with the handling of other peoples money MIC attempted to use what did not belong to them because they were sure they saw certain chances ut making large fortunes Ill Wall street.
 Several of them used hundreds of thousands of dollars.

 But Wall street is not the world, TOT Is it even the most serious part of the United States.
 Its hurries and its panlcs spread their fear and make the dollars run to cover, but they do not paralyze the comfort and the happiness of the nation any more than the crowd of gamblers ruin the success of the county fair.
 In way these tremendous ex- elements are benefit to the coun- try.

 For we have come to regard speculation as simply the more re- spectable name for gambling. Buy ing stocks on margins, taking long chances and risking everything upon the rise or fall of prices is only another form of the sport which used to be confined to the gaming table.
 Wise men of ali ages have con- demned gambling. A pack of cards is the devils prayer-book; gamb- ling Is an express train to rum; he who gambles picks his own pocket; the love of gambling IS the worst of ills; the best throw of the dice IS to throw them away; Sata.l .s in the card pack-the>r are some of the proverbs vac.. rcu r.l ..:.d in the collection, 'i.at haze cr!nc down through H.. a.-c+.
