EXIT MRS. HILL. The obliging young man told her it was the custom for buyers to make out their own slips; but the widow was oe helpless, in a guileless way, that Le filled out the pink paper, and announced immediately that she had bef stock. And when ha returned the Blip she folded it smilingly, happy that she was in the market, and tucked it away in the bosom of her gown for safekeeping. Then she went away te finish her shoppinf. certain that she would return to find a handful of money awaiting her. And, whisper It softly, she sold Sugar short on a five point margin, and Sugar, that flirtatious maid, a if to defy anything in petticoats to divine her Intentions, went straight up six points that day. and did nothing else worth noting. Thus was Mrs Hill out of the market. On the morrow Sugar waa a sale all rigid. When the stock began to look shaky, Mrs. Rafferty sold short. A few minutes before the market closed site .stood in front of the circle of women, turning her ten dollar bills over like leaves while she counted, and Incidentally turning the aona of tha others giecn with envy. STORY OF A LAMB. An ini err ding lamb got bar first lesson on the danger of pla.ving tbe market during the Lawson slump. She was a striking looking woman, had rich red brown hair that shone like burnieheu gold, and sore street gowns and hats of golden brown to match her superb hair. She was known sa Mrs. Wilson, lint she babbled overmuch to all who cared to listen, being a lamb. It was known to all in con sequence that she lived in a fashionable hotel with her two little children, and that her husband ia travelling In Europe and paying her so many thousands a year for her support and that of the children, the only stipulation being that she remain away from him. All this she told because she wanted sympathy. Because she was lonaiy aha decided to speculate, to HU the aching void in her heart. She had plenty of money. Why not? And after she had won a five dollar bill she waa wild with the possibilities of the game. Alreaoy she saw herself worth millions, made by herself. BOUGHT EVERYTHING. SOLD EVERYTHING. So she went all over the board. Whenever a stock raised its head she bought it. Then somebody told Tier it was a wise thing to hedge when aha ,waa buying so man storks and aha sold abort all tfer the board. She would ait and watch tbe quotations with her pile ef papers on her knee sorting them, the pink in one pile, the white in another, and trying to remember the flgiftwa at which she had bought and sold. She had no time for fancy work, with all those stocks to be watched. For she had at least 200 hares, in ten share kits, and sometimes as many as 500. Mrs. Rafferty could knit stockings for her eons; could give her pet recipe for making pickles to one; could tell another tbs best method ef rearing children; could watch the board and tell others what to buy, all at the same time. Lots of others could and did do the same thing. No mere man could be so versatile and win. Neither could the lamb, even though a woman. And when her hope and prospect wera brightest. Lawson began talking. THE COLLAPSE. She brought money by the aandful, carrying it far her bag. When not turning money over to the man nt little window, she talked about her children, her home; and her family tree, Many ef those present did not have a family tree, and they jeered a little but they listened. 8he did not get frightened an quickly a tha others when tbe market began to go off. fur ahe was a lamb and did not know tho possibilities of the game ahe waa playing.

FOLLOWED INSTINCT TO RUIN. Une of the wrecks of the bucket ahopa ia a tall, thin, spectral figure, always In black. Once ahe owned her own home and a little store in which she made a good living. Then In an evil hour some one told her ahe could make a fortune playing the market. It was only a question ot time until ahe waa penniless. Then ahe became a shopper for women and earns a very good salary. But it all goes as fast as she 1 earns it She depends on her insllnet. She will leave her biuilness duties, rush to the nearest bucket shop and instantly feel that a certain mock is a "buy" or a sale. She never stops te see what the market la doing, except in the moat casual way. That voice within her has led her on. bankrupted her, sad still she follows where it deads. She feels like aelling short the strongest stock on the board in a doll market, and bnying the weake eet one when tne beam are In control, and presto! It Is dona THE BUCKET SHOP'S GRIP. When she loses her money she wrings her hands and bemoan her unhappy Lit until aha sends cold chills down the spines of her listeners. Her son when dying made her promise with his last breath that she would never touch a stork again. lie waa hardly buried when ahe was again playing the market. She cannot atop. Always there Is the hope and the belief that the Thing which guides her wlN give a tip that will enable her to get back all her lost money. LUCKLESS WIVES. There are ether cases equally pathetic those of wives who are trying faithfully to get back by speculating in ten bare lots the little fortunes swept away In unfortunate peculation! engaged in by their husbands. Their lot Is the hardest of all, for they have tha double duty of pleasing their husbands and themaelve. Rarely ran the wife act independently of the man, who Is toiling eoras-wber- e while she watches the quotations. He tells her what to do when they part in the morning. But the market Is always uncertain. Ha cannot forecast tlie happenings of tbe day. Therefore She ie compelled to act on her own Judgment many timer And very often when she, with eve swimming in tears because of ker leases. Is pondering on her 111 luck the husband swoops in on her. or calls her up by telephone, to give her a bit of hia mind because ahe blundered. He can always ace, after it 1 all ever. Just what ahe should have done. And ao, forgetting that their home is gone because he failed at tha same game last year, he scolds her roundly because she lost bar ten shares in the bucket shop. She is too broken in spirit to retaliate. She simply cries quietly. And aa anon as they have saved a tew more $10 bills she Is again 1-- out-of-to- in the market OF 23. i for,.
