TIT BE magnate was a satisfied
I } man. As he ut in hi* library (
I ' that night. November 11.1902, \
f to be exact, be could not belp
but think tbat things were well with
him. Be and bis associates had managed
to shake oat tbe well held stocks
that Mr. Gates and bis associates bad
v guarded to Jong and well. At 3 o'clock
that day the street was certain that
the tremendous liquidation of the Mont
day and Tuesday following tbe cele*
tarated drive in Steel preferred bad
last shoot cleared tbe Gates treasuries
ot stock. Certainly one of the Eastern
msgnstes had good reason to be satisfied.
The Western crowd had been
taught tbe very lesson they had fondly
thought they were teaching the Eastern
msgnstes It was very well.
One thing slone troubled the mag1
* nate who sat in his library. To be
^ rare the Western pool bad been taugbt 1
I Its lmoB. bat there was another "oat- *
j|| aid* pooT that this particular magnate 0
w bated mightily. And be bad reason. 1
I Be had bees one of those who sold Ca- 0
f sadian Pacific at ISO and who covered *
> st 1401 Therefore Messrs. Cox et ai "
bsd esraed bis hatred. Yet was the I
pool intact and men In the street?who
knew the bidden mysteries?said that c
rtbe Canadian Pacific pool was likely to *
stay intact c
"What Is it that you're thinking of so 0
bard, daddy?"* asked the girl who sat
to ths big red leather chair opposite the *
fire. She threw her book away as f
she ssked the question.
"Nothing much," taid he; "I was T
wondering how long Ransom was go- t
tog to be away." a
"Oh stocks?it's always stocks, isn't

"Well, IH listen to your stock talk.

young-looking man he was. this n
' cleverest of the floor trsders who lived n
by the orders of the Great Pool. He b
smiled at her as she offered him her s
hand. Then he turned to the magnate.
k "I got it They are secretive, these a
Oanadlana, and they cost money, but I 1'
got It I think that we can win." c
L "Yes?but how? Where Is the soft t

necessary. It will be a relief to clear
them out"
^ The spy left the room. He and the
magnate had failed to notice the sadden
start of the girl at the word
'Toronto," and her rapt attention as
the conversation progressed.
"Daddy, what are you going to do?"
he asked, when they two were alone, i
The magnate chuckled. "Just a little i

We want to make some Canadians
ell their stocks, that's all. We are

"And will they lose much money?"
he asked.
"Probably what they have 1n the
market They won't let go. They will
bold on, I guess, looking for a rally.
The stock always rallies."
Involuntarily he talked as he
thought He was sizing up the prospect
for a stampede, and be thought
there would be none, but that bis enemies
would hang on grimly till at last
they lost the last dollar in margining
their dropping stocks. Therefore be

The letter was dated Toronto. No*
ember & It wis signed by tbe man
she bad met in Wisconsin tbe summer
before. It was the clue to a secret that
none knew except herself ami him. She
let it drop on the couch and sat there
thinking.
"And daddy will t>reak that stock, he
nays, and ruin every one that has It.
Ob. dear. wliat shall I do?"
She sat there half an hour, thinking
desperately. At the end of that time
she sat down at her detk and wrote
n telegram, writing on plain paper because
she had no blanks.
"They are going to put your stock
away down. Sell out. I know this.
It is going to 120 on Thursday. They
want to ruin some one. I don't know
who it is. DOTTIE."
She went to sleep after that. On
Wednesday morning she drove down
to the telegraph office herself and sent
that message away.
That is the reason strange things
happened in Toronto. That also is the
reason Canadian Pacific never reached
120 during that bad week.
Of course Dottle, who knew nothing
of stocks, could not be expected to
know that when a man gets tips that
are startling and wondeiful he is apt
to consult his friends. Nor did she
know that the man to whom she sent
that wonderful wire was hand in-glove
with tbe man at whom the drive of
ritursday was to be aimed.
In the office of Mr. A , of Toronto,
:here was a rush and bustle on that
Wednesday morning that had bad no
[>araUel even In the most exciting
Doom days of tbe summer. It was
rue that tbe resources of Mr. A
(r??re nearly exhausted. It was true I
dso, and this fact the spy had missed,
hat a sew bank was on the very verge
it flotation In Toronto. The President
>f It was to be Mr. A . In the orUnary
course of events it would have
>een opened within two weeks or so.
Herein lies the cause of the bustle.
5n the hint that a drive at Canadian
*aciflc was Intended Mr. A had sent
iround to the banks asking prospect*
or loan*. He had been met by the
eply that heavy loans that morning
tad pre-empted a great deal of the
iva liable cash, and that, while the
tanks wer% very sorry, etc.. etc. To
brow his stock In the market would
inly precipitate things. That bank
nust be opened. It must be opened
it once. All preliminaries had been
:one through with two weeks before.
Fbe executive staff alone was In compete.
That day In Toronto a bank was
Teated. The staff was more or less
emporary, and could not b? called
fficient, but there was money, lots
>f money.
On Thursday night. November 13,
he magnate received a telegram iuui i
llled him with wrath and amazement !
"New bank Metropole opened here j
ylth Mr. A? President. Said to be |
o protect his loans. Money eased off
it close rapidly. What shall I do?
"KNOW I/TON."

eached Dottie on Friday night. There

Tbe owner of a spear affixes It to a

If be is an expert be can work

Hood Journalism is so valuable that
it is a pity that there should be so
.iiuch bad Journalism. Yet we have all
learned not to trust absolutely to the

absolutely so long as such a story is
[jossible as this, which la vouched for
Liy the London Globe:
A British Journalist of good reputation
was called on suddenly to write an
obituary of the late Bret Hnrte. He I
*at down full of enthusiasm for his
lubject. aud with what seemed to him
pretty complete knowledge, and wrote
i glowing article. He sent it to the

had sores on her face, hands and |
arms, but I paid no attention to that i
until Charlie, my youngest, began to
pick and scratch himself. He was
then ten months old, and the girl
had paid more attention to him tnan
to any of the others. Charlie wss fretful
and cross, but as he was cutting
teeth, I didn't thick much of that.
Even when a rash broke out on his
face I wasn't frightened, because i
everybody knows that that is quite
common with teething babies. Several
of my others had it when little,
and I thought nothing about it.
"But the rash on Charlie's poor
little face spread to his neck, chest,
and back. I had never seen anything
quite like it before. The skin
rose in little lumps, and matter
came out. My baby's skin was hot,
i and how he did suffer ! He wouldn't
eat, and night after night I walked .
the floor with him, weak as I was. fi
Often I had to stop because I felt *
faint and my back throbbed with
pain. But the worst pain of all was
to see my poor little boy burning '
with those nasty sores.
"I believed he had caught some
i disease from the trirl. but some of
I the neighbors said he had eczema,
i and that ia not catching, they told
| me. Yes, I gave him medicine, and
put salrea and things on him. I
don't think they were all useless.
Once in a whi.e the itching seemed
to let up a bit, but there was not
much change for the better until a
lady across the street asked me why
l I didn't try the Cuticnra Remedies.
I told her I had no faith in those
things yon read about in the papers.
She said she didn't want me to go
on faith nor even to spend any
money at first. She gave me some
