A MILLION DOLLAR DRUNK.
BY EDWIN T. A. NYR.

A MILLION DOLLAR DRUNK.
Probably the most expensive drink
Ing bout on record Is that of a New
York broker at Christmas time.
His drunk cost him $1,000
This is the way 1t happened: The
gambler in stocks was accustomed,
like other big spectators, to give his
brokers an order, say, to buy, and then
to counterbalance his purchase he
would hedge" by giving orders to
other brokers to sell the same stock.
On the up and down movement
activity of the market'-he would
gamble.
Well
On Christmas day the stock gambler
He went about the exchange Shaping
brokers on the back, one after another,
saying, BUY me 5000 shares of Rock
Island stock Monday
They bought the stock. But the ex-
uberant Spectator was so drunk on
Monday he forgot to order sales.
Under the heavy buying the stock
of Rock Island went up like rocket.
1t went up from so to 81 points, and
then, nobody appearing to buy, IL
came down like a stick. 1t dropped
from 81 to the so point
Thus the gambler lost his 81 ,O00, 600
his entire fortune.
He is not the first man who has los,
his fortune by a drunk. When one
loses his head his fortune usually goes
along with 1t.
Business does not go with bibulous
'sboozing"
Competition nowadays Is so keer
that the stuff In a business mans
brain pan must be of the best fiber
One drink may so affect the sensitive
cells as to cause his undoing.
The day is past when an engines

into his cab. No longer is the book
keeper permitted to visit the saloo!
every hour or two. And, except wher
the work is of the toughest sort, tn
common laborer who ''rushes the can
is apt to receive quick discharge.
Big business has no use for the en-
ployee who fuddles his gray matte
with liquor. The cup that cheers
also inebriates.
You may not have lost 81, 100000 b
drink. And yet you may.
Even one drink may have lost 70
the big chance that leads up to fol
time.

Lemons are not the only fruit that
combine well with strawberries. With
rhubarb they are delicious. Stew the
rhubarb in the usual way and add the
hulled berries until 1t is red. Nlis
combination makes an excellent appe-
tizer at breakfast. Pineapple dice and
Strawberries stewed together are a rich
conserve that is most appropriate at
supper or luncheon. Add sugar to
sweeten, but not too much. Strswber
ries combine we'll with cherries and
may be preserved or made into a marin
alade with pineapple. The cherries
should be sprinkled literally with sug
ar and allowed to stand for about an
hour before mixing with the strawber
ries.
delicious strawberry salad Is made
by combining the berries with few
slices of banana, two or three lobes OF
orange cut in quarters and freed from
tissue. one or two spoonfuls of diced
grapefruit treated in the same way as
thoroughly with powdered sugar after
piling it into a glass fruit bowl. Then
! sprinkle over it a few spoonfuls of
sherry and just before serving orna-
ment it with whipped cream.
| A bowlful OF berries and sliced ba-
nanas mixed together thoroughly Is de-
licious for either luncheon or supper,
| especially If served with whipped cream
and sherry.

For eighteen years one of her eyes
