causes u decidedly unpleasant sensa-

Gibbons are a species of small boa

Brazil for the purpose above men,
toned. They are not at all venomous.
They sleep in the house. generally
taking up their position at the foot of
the stairs. When nightfall approaches
they begin to wake up. and during the
night they slide swiftly about the
premises. looking for rats.
Giboias are offered for sale in the
markets Of Bahia and Pernambuco for
prices ranging from 81 to S.. accord

said that they are so easily domesti-

WOMEN IN WALL Street.
They Are Good Winners, but Drown
Their Losses In Tears.

They Are Good Winners, but Drown
Their Losses In Tears.
To many brokers women are hoo
docs. and some stock exchange houses
refuse absolutely to have anything to
do with the fair sex. The majority Of
brokerage firms try their best to keep
women's speculative accounts out Of
their Offices. Some houses are obliged
to take women's accounts as u matter
Of personal friendship. but they will
not open accounts for other women. no
matter how we'll they may be intro
duced.
Wall street men do not have high
opinion Of the average woman's busi-
ness sense Most women have an idea
that one needs only to get Tip
from some 'inSider'' in Wall street to
be sure Of making ''barrels OF money
for new gowns. hats and jewe1ry.
Tie dictum of Wall street Is that
women are good winners. but bad
losers. 1t Is difficult to reason about
money and business with an angry or
weeping woman. Her view OF Wall
street and all its works suddenly BE-
comes entirely emotional. and only 4
broker with infinite patience can calm
her. Many u time a stock exchange
house has taken woman customers
loss rather than face her tears.-Strano
Magazine.
