Peaches, my wife, acquired the aula-
teur photography bug last week, and it
was really surprising how quickly she
laid the foundation Of a domestic
rogues' gallery.
She bought camera and went after
everybody and everything in the neigh
borhood.
She took about 100000 views Of our
country home before she discovered that
the camera wasn't loaded properly
which was tough on Peaches but good
for the bungalow.
Like everything else in this world pic
ture pinching from still life depends en-
tirely on the point Of view.
If your point of view is all right it's
an easy matter to make four-dollar
doghouse look like the villa of Wall
street broker at Newport.
Ten minutes after my wife had
brought the camera home she had ME
set up as statue all over the lawn, and
she was swapping at me like spitz dog
gle at a peddler.
I sat for PIG pictures that forenoon,
I must have looked like a setter.
Anyway, before I was through set.
ting I felt like a hen, but when she
tried to coax me to climb UP on a limb
OF tree and stay there till she got a
picture of me looking like an owl, /
swore softly in three languages, fell over
the back fence and ran for my life.
When Irubbershoed it back that after
noon my wife was busy developing her
crimes.
The proper and up-to-date caper IN
connection with taking snap shots these
days is to buy developing outfit and
upset the household from pit to dome
while you are squeezing out pictures OF
every dearly beloved friend that crosses
your pathway.
My wife selected spare room on the
top floor where she could await Develop
ments.
A half hour later ghostIy noises began
to come from that room and mysterious
whisperings fell out of the window and
bumped over the lawn.
When reached the front door found
that the gardener had left, the waitress
was leaving, the baby had discharged
the nurse, and the nurse was telephon-
ing for a policeman.
Where is Mrs. Henry2"I asked Mary,

What has she developed % inquired.
etJTr, +o tho prasant time she has de-
yeloped the cooks temper and she has
developed the baby's appetite, and cou-
pie Of bill collectors developed a pain
in the neck when they couldn't see her:
and if things go on in this way think
this will soon develop into foolish

under the hammock On the front porch,
not daring to breathe above whisper

into complete accord with her views
on the condition of the market.
She has induced these persons to
1ntrust her with large sums of money
solely on har assertion as to what the
state of the market would be-
She is accused of having Informed
her patrons that they could not lose if
they did not win, and of having dab
bled in the old game of paying divi-
dends from the principal of the duped.
Mrs. Hulshizer has convinced Judge
Smith that her case constitutes a nov
city in law, since it involves unsettled
points of law with relation to option
dealing. When the hearing occurs
there will be several hundred brokers
in court and the probability is that
Mrs. Hulshizer will be granted a new
trial
Here are the accusations against
the dark-eyed woman whose influence
over her clients is said to have been
little short Of hypnotic:
That she posed for years as a board
of trade operator and confidential EN-
p1oye and that she has won and lost
fortunes by "coppering" tips of well
known plungers.
That after losing most Of her win
nings she became market tipster
and induced scores OF. persons to in
trust her with their money for pur-
poses of speculation.
That she invented an ingenious
story of having a mysterious code
known only to an inner circle of f.
naneiers who controlled the markets
and that by reading the messages
sent over private wire each day she
could tell in advance what the fuctu-
ations of different stocks and grains

for exactly the same reasons. The

an ideal mulch for the ported plants.
