is real day, with old Sol on the

The Queen will leave first at

OUR STOCK EXCHANGES.

Small In Some Ways Compared With
Those of London and Paris.
So much is said about the bfgness of
things in this country and especially In
regard to money matters that we not
infrequently get wrong impression
of our relative size.
Take the stock exchanges as an ex-
ample. In many respects our Ameri-
can exchanges are small affairs com
pared with those in Paris and London.
On the average daily speculation in
London far exceeds that In New York
and Philadelphia combined. There are
more than 5000 members of the Lon
don exchange, LOO III Rev York,
fewer than $50 4. Philadelphia and
only 70 in Paris. London has nearly
10000 listed securities, while Wall
street has under 1000, of which almost
exactly two-thirds are bonds The par
value of London's list is nearly double
that of New York and Philadelphia to-
gether. The London exchange pays q
dividend to members OF 100 per cent.
TO be member one must own at least
Inree or the 2O,OOO shares OF the eX-
change, These shares are $65 paid In,
but sell for about $3.50. No one broker
may own more than 200 shares.
Membership in the Paris bourse is
now worth upward of 100000. There
a broker must put up a guarantee fund
of $4,000 against failure. In London
the commission charged by brokers to
buy or sell stock the price of which
is between $50 and $100 share is %
cents, and over 5000 it is 80 cents.
Payments for stocks bought in London
are made only once every two weeks
on given settlement day, whereas in
this country all settlements must occur
within working day.-Philadelph

Rehabilitation.

Some people seem to have. no
conception of the worth of work
ing man or to be willing to accord
to him what is his due. They
seem to think that money is all
If you have wealth your it; if Lot
you are simple working man and
must therefore sit in the hindmost
seat. What is money; or, to give
more grammatical title, wealth /?
In itself it is nothing; its value is
only determined by its adaptation
as means of exchange; this being
true without labor what good would
money do anyone. If one had mon
ey piled high as a mountain and had
no opportunity to exchange it for
the things labor had produced it
would be absolutely worthless.
In this move to rehabilitate the
homes of the workers who lost
them by reason of the recent flood
it is suggested to charge, any one
who may use this relief money,
3 per cent after the first year To
my mind this is wrong. A vast
majority of the workingmen who
owned their own homes have long
since stood on the highest pinacle
of times allotment and viewed the
scenenry on the other side and are
now going down the hill into the
valley beyond and ere long will be
laid in hole dug for all. This
class of workers can never regain
