NO MORE CHANCES By WILLIAM H. OSBORNE. Young Henry t'ouse wiih Just like other pt'oplt only more so. Deeply Imbedded In his luituro win a strong desire constantly to get something far nothing. He did not gamble, but h kept a wary eye upon the lottery mil upon the markets. He hnd anoth er trait. He wiih a devoted admirer ot MIbh Sally Mnuuorlng. Hut It was this admiration that bothered him. "If 1 c'd only get enough of the Btuff together," he Bald to himself, Til pop the quotation Hut hung it, I'm afraid I never will." There was one thing thnt young L'ouso did not understand. That was, that the great way to make money anywhere today, Is to nave It. Small sums never counted with him. Ho wns invariably casting them upon tho waters of fortune, ns a tlHhermun casts a uorm to catch a fish. Hut Henry's bait always left tho hook, and lie never got anything In return. However, It wnB winter, and Honry was hit pretty hard, and ho spent n good many evenings at the homo of Miss Mnuuorlng. He was clerking it, and he said to himself that ho would lay aside a llttlo money all ho could spnro. SI Hopkins was building a llt tlo mite of a house up on the .llll building It to let, und Henry hoped against hope that somehow he could scrape up his courage and propose to Miss Sally; and that he could scrape up enough money by spring at least to set up with Miss Sally In that lit tle house. So he shunned tho news papers nnd nil the literature contain ing alluring offers In tho shape of small Investments; nnd shaved the lottery way back in his mind, nnd only thought about Miss Sally und tho house. Time passed. He nrnnhsed Anally tho Just and full sum or $50. Fifty dollars. Think of It Henry Couso had always mado fair wages; ho was a good worker; he was a clover lad; yet never in his life before hnd he possessed tho sum of $50. "What I ought to do," Henry's hot ter Judgment told him, "Is to take this to Sally nnd let her keep it for mo. That's Just tho thing to do. Hut" Well. Henry didn't. And ho didn't because Instead of thinking .merely of renting Si's llttlo house, he took to building cnstles In tho air. One day n newspaper advertisement caught his eye. It was headed by the words "Fifty Dollnrs." It was signed by A. Agustus Atkinson. Tho adver tisement wns very frunk and -clear and plnin. It stated without any reservation thnt Mr. Atkinson, a largo stock broker, had inside information on threo or four of tho active stocks; that ho know positively what would happen; that ho had never made mis takes and that ho had Just made a small fortune for ono of his clients who had taken his ndvlce nnd hnd In vested only $in. Mr. Atkinson stated clearly that ho would not accept or ders; that ho wodld merely furnish information for tho trifling sum of flvo dollars per weok, and that 1i!b client or customer must Invest his money through tho ordinary channels. Ho stated this, said Mr. Atkinson, to show his good faith. Down in tho city Mr. A. Augustus Atkinson .occupied a part a part only of a deskroom, in a dingy corner of a dingy building. Ho wns not a broker and never hnd been n broker. Ho know something less about tho stock mnrket than did Diana of Mad ison squnro. nut nevertheless ho mado a living nnd n good one with tho drinks thrown in. For Mr. Atkinson had a system; a suro one for him. Tho wholo thing wns very slmplo. When his advertise ment had brought In enough five-dollar bills to pay for itself, and to make it worth Mr. Atkinson's -while to go to work, Mr. Atkinson would sit down and write two sots of letters. These letters would relate to a cer tain stock or commodity, sny X Y. & 55. Mr. Atkinson would advise his western customers to buy X., Y. & 7.. and would ndvlso his eastern custom ers to Boll It. Tho result wns palp able If thoro was any movement whatever In X., Y. & Z., Just one-half of bis customers won, and tho other half lost. Tho half that won would naturally tell all their friends about tho advlco and five-dollar bills would pour In upon Mr. A. Augustus Atkin son. Young Couse grubbed away until ho had saved up $55. Then ho wroto to Mr. Atkinson and enclosed a five dollar bill. Ho stood ready with tho $50 to send it down to a good Arm ho know of in tho city, Just as soon as Mr. Atkinson responded. Usually when ho mado up hlB mind to it, it did not tnko Mr. Atklr.Bon long to answer his correspondence. His ndyice would consist of two or threo words only: Huy so and so. or, sell so and so. Rut on a fateful day his correspondence was heavier than usual and ho had selected a long named stock. It was a stock that hnd been remarkably active In tho last fow days. Everybory will recall Its name Tho Universal Confederated American Metallic Consolidation. This was known on 'change ns tho "Uca Mick." Tho long nnmo wearied Mr. Couso, nnd when ho wns half through with IiIh list, ho stopped. Ho had ad Tlsod tho flrst half to sell tho stock. "Geo," ho said to himself, wearily, "geo, I'm tired. ,111 go out and strotch my legs, a bit." Mr. Atkinson's legs took tonio tlmo to strotch; business JiiBtlflod it, bo ho thought; nnd they wero stretched so much that thoy wero iiomewbnt unsteady when ho catno buck. I He picked up the list. Ileiiiy Couse, Kcq " he said to himself, "('oust', eh Country name that. Derived probably from Cows. Henry Couso. Hens unir i Cows, eh? Not bad, All right Mr. Coiiho You'd better--ah, let me seoji which half Is this. Let's see, I mailed those others. What did 1 tell 'em, anyway?" Henry Cause, up In tho Plains store, wns quite unawnre by what n slender thread his fate wA hanging Mr Atkinson's memory usually wae good, but It hnd been Impaired on this occasion by tho stretching process. "The tlrst lot," snld Mr. Atkinson, "why, I told 'em to buy- that's suro. Then this half must sell. All right for you, you can sell, Henry Couso, of Frankfort l'lnlns " I The next day Henry Cause received n plain white envelop with an tin- 1 signed slip Inside of It. TIiIb Is whnt it said: "Sell Univ. Con. Am. Met. Con and do It right away." Mr. Couse sold. Kverybady knows now uhat happened. lu the Micxt three days tho battle royal between the American Iron Concern nnd "Ucn Mick" took place. lOverybody remem bers the crisis when "Uca Mick," which hnd been 170, disappeared from sight and reappeared again at 15. It wan a crash among crashes. Honry Cause contoniplnted It with dlsconi flture. "Gee," ho snld to himself, for he was not nu adept In tho mysteries of Wall street, "gee, but I'm n blamed Idiot. Hero I've been dabbling lu U. C. A. nnd tho wholo bottom has fallen out of tho blamed thing. Serves mo right. I'll never do It ngaln." The next day ho received a check from his brokers for $5,000 on ac count. That was not all, they said there was a llttlo more to come. For Henry Couso hnd not understood the Import of n sale us distinguished from n purchase He had sold at a high price, and delivered at a low price; nnd tho difference belonged to him. Mr Atkinson hnd stretched his legs that day to como purpose, for. through his slip of memory, every customer hnd sold ".Uca Mick" on margin ami every ono had won. He does a liirgot business than over, nnd perhnps It 'i just as well for folks to loso through him ns In any other way. Mr. Henry Couso did not go to see Miss Soil Manncring on the evening thnt ho got the check. Ho was too much uston lulled; ho hnd to sit up half tho night nnd look at tho check steadily for hours. Tho next morning ha went around, however. He wnnted to strike while tho iron was hot. "Sally." ho said, "I've bought S! Hopkins' house and enme around tc sees If 1 could put the title in your name." v Miss Sally Mannnring thought lit wns crazy. Hut ho was rntlonnl enough. For he sat himself at hot side and put his arm mound her wnist nnd Anally ho kissed her And that's no Hjgn of lunacy. Finally lie pulled a roll of bills from his pocket. "Sal ly," ho said, "I want you to take theso and keep them for me for us. I'm nover, never going to speculate an more. Never. I'm through. Resides," ho ndded, "I own soma real ostnto and I'm going to mnrry you, and thnt'1 lottory enough for any mnn." Whereupon Miss Rally boxed hit ears. And Henry Couso ho Jus! laughed nnd let her do It.
