SHREwDNEss In DovE.-Down the
winding country road walked strange
trio-a comely and perfectly composed
looking maiden and two men, on each
of whose faces one could perceive the
influence of the green-eyed monster
Their names, the reader will be inter-
ested to hear, were Miss Jones, Mr..
Brown and Mr.. Robinson.
Suddenly, as they say in the novels
a severe thunderstorm came on. Light
ming flashed, and Mr. Brown remarked
that he was frightened.
Here was Robinson's chance.
What are you afraid OFF," he an
swered, contemptuously. Il am as cool
as can be-"
why, of course" answered the as
tute Brown. IF were alone l should
be the same: but am afraid for Miss
Jones in this lightning. You see. she Is
so attractive!"
Robinson is still bachelor, but
Brown is not.

the idea.

MARKET UNSTEADY.
Call Money More Normal But Business
Not Active.

NEW YORK, Nov. ls. - The Stock
Market has continued unsettled and IT.
regular this week with occasional raj
lies. The call money market in New
York has been more normal but the gen.
eral conditions of money and exchange
markets through the country have en-
tirely dominated the situation. The
abundant evidence of the harm being
done by the dislocation Of the exchanges,
the currency famine and the resulting
obstruction Of business activity have
not obscured the hope Of an early re-
system. for which it is universally ac.
knowledged only sentiment Of con-
fidence is requisite. Continued inflow oi
gold and expansion Of bank note issues
have operate toward relief which was
manifest in the decline Of the premium
on currency.
