VAIN STOCK EXCHANGE JOKE
"Psss" That Was to Get New Member
Clubbed Won Him Honor.

Clubbed Won Him Honor.
One man who heard William j Bryan
speak on Monday night, Oct. &C. in
Madison Square Garden, New York,
had laugh on two Of his fellow mem
bers of the New York Consolidated
Stock Exchange who thought they
were carrying out his initiation.
John H. Stevens is one Of the newest
members of the little board" When
he came on the floor he was so new
to the game that the hardened men,
bers thought IT would be tame sport to
put him through the usual stunts, but
he gave them luscious opportunity
later in the day. The Bryan meeting
coming up for discussion. Mr.. Stevens
complained that he had been unable to
get tickets, though he had worked his
hardest with the leader of his district.
Then up spoke Charles H. Curry,
who has some reputation on the floor
as a joker, and said he would give the
new member pass. He wrote on one
of the transaction slips furnished by
the Exchange:
Please admit bearer to stage seat. Mad
ison Square Garden, Bryan meeting, Oct.
l6, 1915.
"This will get you in," he told the
green member, but 1t has to be coun-
tersisned by Peabody"
George A. Peabody entered into the
joke, and when Mr. Stevens applied to
him he was only too glad to oblige a
fellow member of the exchange. He
counterslgned the paper with many
fourishes.
So on Monday night the new mem
Der bucked into the crowd around the
Garden with his impressive looking
paper. To the first policeman who
tried to hold him back he presented it.
But the hourishes on the signature or
something impressed the policeman.
''N hat Mr.. Peabody says goes" said
he and pushed the Consolidated man
through the crowd.
Inside the Garden the ushers bowed
before the formidable looking pass"
anu MI. ioleheuS got up u Tue SldBe.
There he was halted.
"Who are Mr.. Peabody and Mr. Cur
ry% asked the usher there
"T hatr' exclaimed the green Con-
solidated member. Don't you know
them? Why, they're the whole show"
Excuse me-" apologized the con-
fused official; "step right this way, Mr..
Stevens"
And Mr.. Stevens got seat in mid
stage. The next morning when he
reaehed the floor all of the wise ones
were looking for an explosion Of
wrath. Messrs. Curry and Peabody
had put the crowd on to their "joke"
and were waiting to dodge behind the
posts. But up stepped Mr.. Stevens to
each in turn and thanked them pro-
fusely for the remarkable attention he
had received.
"All l had to do was to mention
your names" said he. 81 got the best
seat in the place"
No one had enough sporting blood to
tell him it was an initiation joke gone
wrong.

the water from getting foul. Skim
milk in sour or clobbered state is
good for fowls or chickens to drink,
but do not give too much Every

will cause bowel looseness. Fine
cracked corn and whole wheat can be
led in place OF chick feed after four
weeks old. but the latter is far the
best to use for young chicks as 1t is
always convenient and ready. Though
little more expensive, the real diff
ference in cost amounts to compare
lively nothing, as young chicks can
not consume enough to make the diff
ference appreciable. The old idea
that chicks require a culinary depart
ment is fully exploded. Do not
waste time and patience of the good
housewife In baking johnnycake or

foods and appliances have reduced
the burden of chick culture by half,
and at the same time made It more
successful.

The males are beautiful dark red

They are splendid types of the

They are splendid table fowls, good
