CANDLES on Gossip.
OF the many popular decisions touch
Ing Wall street and Its people none Is
more persistent or more dangerous to
the outsider than the belief that from
nothing great permanent fortunes have
been made by shrewd and lucky spec
ulation In prices. 1t isn't true. We
differentiate here between speculation
in prices only and the kind of legiti-
mate speculation which seeks to antici-
pate great economic changes. Legiti-
mate speculation has its translation
into prices. too, but 1t takes, first, origi-
nal capital In some reasonable proper
ton to the profits expected and. Sec
ondly, the treatment of exceptional
opportunity with correct imagination.
Its risks at best are very large. Among
our Wall street acquaintance are sew
eral hard headed men who succeed In
making $4,000 a year by speculation.
Not one of them has a capital of less
than $25O.OOO. They make It earn
about 10 per cent.
Take Blank one OF the ablest specu-
lators we know. He has made half
million dollars during the past five
years. Very handsome return. You
say. Let us look at Blank. He was
the chief accountant of one of the big
railway systems when an uncle, dying.
left him $4,000. Mind you. he was an
expert railway statistician and an ex-
ceptionaly able young man to boot.
He knew his own road like book. as
well as some other things that only the
directors were aware of. The stock Of
the system looked cheap to him. and
he used his $4,000 to margin 1900
shares. A bull market was beginning.
and within month or two Blanks
capital had increased to 100000. He
was content with ten point rise.
though the stock advanced ten points
more. That was the first OF Blanks
deals. Twelve months later he won
again. He thought that the stock Of
certain western system was selling
below its value and set about an in
vestigation to find the facts. He hired
first class engineer and retired traf-
fic manager to travel from one end of
that railroad to the other. and he him.
self analysed the accounts. When all
the reports were in 1t seemed to him
that the system was earning enough
money to justify an increase of Its
dividend. and he plunged once more.
He waited six months for his point
this time. and his investigation had
cost him 5000. He made $4,000.
Good interest, you say. but think OF

game and the trouble he took to be

WINDOW GAZING.
A Fascinating Occupation For the
Tourist In Paris.

A Fascinating Occupation For the
Tourist In Paris.
Window gazing is one OF the recog-
nized vocations of the tourist in Paris.
Everybody engages In this fascinating
occupation, and, In truth, it would be
impossible to resist the temptation, for
the most beautiful wares are set forth
only way you can withstand the desire
for possession Is to leave the coin OF
the realm and even your letter OF
credit mt home; otherwise there is no
telling into what extravaganza, not to
say useless purchase, you may be per-
suaded when probably you have just
gone out for morning stroll.
OF all these windows the jewelers.
seem to be the greatest magnets. But
the bewildering part Of 1t is that to
the man or woman IMMERSED in the
knowledge of precious stones the im1-
tations thereof look quite as good as
the genuine articles. Pearls, diamonds,
rubies, emeralds and SO throughout
the long list stones are SO perfectly i'm
itated that 1t is small wonder many
American women succumb to the
temptation Of buying them. But there
the temptation does not end, for they
bring them home with all the intent
to dazzle, bewilder and deceive their
unsuspecting relatives and friends
with the magnificence Of their sudden
ly acquired wealth of jewels. Women
whom one would never suspect OF
wearing imitation gems frequent the
shops where they are for sale in Paris
In the most open, not to say brazen.
manner, while the foreign papers fair
ly bristle with advertisements of re-
constructed and imitation gems. which
only goes to show what lucrative
business It must be.-New York Trib-

NO DANGER IN OYSTERS.

Profess or julius Nelson, biologist OF
the New Jersey State experiment sta
ton, has just reported to the State Blu
reau Of Shell Fisheries the results Of
his investigation OF the so-called disease
among oysters in the Maurice river
cove district. There had been report
from that section to the effect that a
large number of oysters had died dur
ing the summer, and one planter ex-
pressed the opinion that some contagi-
Gus disease had taken them off. The
Bureau of Shell Fisheries was skeptical
of this intimation and engaged Profess
or Nelson to make an expert investiga-
ton, with the anticipated result that no
such disease was discovered. The diff
fculty was found to be traceable to con-
ditons OF the bottom and other condi-
tons liable to arise on the beds at any
time, though in no very serious vol
ume.
"I'he trouble seems evidently to be
due 10 the condition called smother
ing said Professor Nelson in his re-
port, (which means that the loose soil,
either sand or mud, becomes lifted by
special agitation OF the water and de
posted upon the oysters SO abundant
ly as to clog their gills. This condi
ton causes three results--hrst, the OK
ygen supply is materially reduced; sec
ond, the food catching apparatus is
seriously interfered with; third the oys-
ter, struggling to free itself from the
dirt that is collecting on its gills, works
off its flesh and loses its fat No Won

o. s. Marsden, in an article in Sue
cess, says that the up-to-date business
man is constantly breaking up old
time systems which have been handed
down from father to son for many gen.
erations. The progressive man pays
very little attention to what was done
in the past. He knows that the world
is new every day, and that it requires
new treatment. He faces the sun of
progress, he looks towards the light, he
holds his mind open. He does not
care how many people have done the
work before, or in what way they have
done it, or how many superstitions en-
girdle the thing he is working upon,
he does his work in his own way. The
present state of the worlds progress is
the result of the constant breaking
away from the past, the elimination of
worn-out machinery, of cast-of ideas,
foolish superstition, prejudice and
worn-out methods.
Go where you will,you will find peo-
pie, both men and women, who are
always waiting for something to turn
up to better their condition in life.
Yet this class Of people are the last
ones to try and turn something up that
will be benefit to them in any way,
but still wait from day to day. II you
want something to turn up, get move
on you, get out, hustle and see il you
cannot find something you can turn up
to your advantage. There are plenty
of chances for every one if they are
sought after, but they will not come
to you if you do not hunt them up.

The fraternal orders are national
blessing They promote thrift, econ
omy, sobriety, without freezing the
soul into selhshness, as is apt to be the
case in the usual struggle for wealth or
high social position. They bring
men into closer social relations, and
cherish those feelings that thrive and
put forth blossoms in each others wei
fare. They make men thoughtful and
helpful, expanding the sentiments OF
love, charity and good will. They
teach us the religion that breaks bread
to the hungry, gives a cup of water to
the thirsty, watches at the bed OF the
sick, visits the imprisoned, the father
less and widows--duties that are sadly
neglected, and for long time were
supposed to be confined to the church.
