No JOY for Him.

II is Ali old truth that the public is
nerer short i'm the stock market. There
has been so much money made on the
long side of stocks in the last few
months that the other side has been
neglected by all but the profcSsio
traders. SO when the market reacts, as
it does once in a while. there are a
good many long faces in the commits
SION houses. The occasional trader
does little buying on the reactions be-
cause he has done little selling on the
bulgcs. If he tried the latter opera
ton in the midsummer advances he
likely &c not lost his stock. Tor the
market was always quick TO turn from
declines. So now ne sits and clooms
