If the real Inside workings of the
average bucket Bhop were lnld bare
said a telegraph operator who has bad
much experience In such establish
ments the revelation would open tho
eyes of the young donkeys who Imag
ine they can beat the game Just to
illustrate the point Ill tell you a little
story
Some time ago there were two rival
bucket shops In n certain southern
city supposed to bo run by northern
operators Business was a little slow
and It was evident that the specula
tive element was inclined to be suspi
cious of both establishments One
dny the manager of one of the concerns
hunted up a young fellow who hnd
more money than brains and handing
him 50 asked him ns a special favor
to go over to the other house and make
such and such a play Its a private
speculation of my own he said anil
I have a straight tip but I cant very
well plnce the money myself on ac
count of my connection with
Co If I did theyd get suspicious right
nway
The young Idiot supposed of course
thnt ho had struck a bonanza ono
bucket shop man playing ngainst an
other It must be a sure thing So he
not only placed the 50 as requested
but plnyed the tip hard himself and so
did nil his friends whom he promptly
let Into the secret Needless to say
they were all eventually skinned out of
every cent they put In but the remark
able part of the story Is that the same
tactics were worked back and forth
by both manngers ou nt least a dozen
different ocensions Each time it was
done they gathered In a lot of new
clients and made a big haul It de
veloped not long afterward thnt tho
two bucket shops were run by the
same people New Orleans Times

An English clergyman rather pom
pous of nianucr according to Spare
Moments was fond of chatting with a
witty chimney sweep
Once when the minister returned
from his summer holidays he happen
ed to meet his youthful acquaintance
who seemed to have been nt work
Where have you been asked the
clergyman
Sweeping the chimneys at the vic
arage was the boyB answer
How many chimneys nre there nnd
how much do you get for each was
the next question
The sweep said there were 20 chim
neys aud that ho was pnid a shilling
apiece
The clergyman nfter thinking a mo
ment looked at the sweep in apparent
astonishment You have earned a
great deal of money in a llttlo time
he remarked solemnly wondering
probably whnt the Booty fellow would
reply
Yes said the sweep throwing his
bag over hls shoulder as he started

Every woman loves to think of the
time when a soft little body all her
own will nestle In her bosom fully
satisfying the yearning which lies in
the heart of every good woman But
yet there Is a black cloud hovering
about the pretty picture In her mind
which fills her with terror The
dread of childbirth takes away much
of the Joy of motherhood And yet It
need not be so For sometime there
has been upon the market well known
and recommended by physicians a
liniment called
Mothers mend
which makes childbirth as simple and
easy as nature intended It It is a
Stnflenlne Penetlng liniment
which the skin readily absorbs It
gives the muscles elasticity and vigor
prevents sore breasts morning sick
ness and the loss of the girlish figure
