assembled relics of murder? Are they
still whispering, out of their own
agony, to the souls of the curious
spectators? I was wondering about
this, the other afternoon down there.
when suddenly, without any previous
warning, there came one loud deep
not of a bell-I. horrible sound.
Everyone lumped about six inches in-
to the air. It was, I suppose, the old
Toll Bell from Newgate that had
given tongue. I know that for one
wild moment I had a vision of the
whole beastly place coming to life;
the murderers stretching, yawning,
fixing their eyes on us, then slowly
advancing; the hangmerrs ropes
twitching imd curling; the gulllotine
rising and falling; the treadmill re-
volving; while that monstrous bell
went tolling, tolling. All that did
happen, however, was that the at-
tendant, who was lesmed in murder
-“my books tells me," he always
said-began s little lecture tour of
the figures. His favorite phrase was
"the wily eye." I heard about the
"wlly eye of Justice 'Awkins" _and
the wily eye of the Austrylisns.” and
I have no doubt that if I had listen-
ed carefully to all that he had to say
I could have made an amusing char-
acter out of him. But I did not stay
long enough; I sought the open air;
and though it was only the air of the
Marylebone Road at the dusk of a
heavy wmwr day, it really did seem
very open indeed. most pleasantly
sweet tothe nostrils.

LETTER. OF SYMPATHY
To Mrs. Rufus Stevenson, Freder-
lcton:
Dear Friend: As members of the
-;F'rederlcton Women’s Institute we
, wish to convey to you our since sym-
l pathy in the loss of your beloved mo-
'ther. Death is always sad, but never
lso touching as when the tender ties
of motherhood are broken. Although
such bereavements are hard to en-
dure we yet. know that sooner or lat-
er each one of us is called upon to
reverently bear the cross, when a
loved one is taken from us. We are
brought nearer~ the great beyond
which now seems such a mystery.
But some day when the curtain is
lifted and we stand in the presence
of Our Great Redeemer then will
we understand.
We realize that words of ours can-
not bring much comfort to your sad-
dened heart, for only God can pour
the balm of consolation when unex-
pected sorrow comes upon us. ...
Although separated from our dear
ones may you be enabled to look
above and in due time rejoice with
her who would say, Weep not for
me, for I have entered into the joy
of my Lord.
To you and other members of the
family we extend our sincere sympa-
thy. ‘
Signed on behalf of the members
of this Institute:
Ruth Stevenson, Agnes Arthur.

ghan, rellct of the late Patrick Kelly
of Kelly’s Cross on January 1'1th in
her seventy-sixth year. The deceased
was in her usual, though not robust
health, till nve days before her death.
The late Mrs. Kelly will be missed in
the community in which she lived all
her life, but especially in the home,
where she was a. wise counsellor and
was dear to her sons and daughters
and, in later years, to her grand-
children.
In a brief notice it is impossible to
make adequate reference to the many
estimable traits of the deceased, her
thrift, her love for home and family.
her happy and humorous manner in
her intercourse with her friends and
the public in general. But, perhaps,
the most conspicuous feature of her
life was her strong- faith, her relig-
lous adherence to the duties and re-
sponsibilities incumbent on a prac-
tical Catholic. She thus, like many
of her forefathers, was all her life
unconsciously pointing the ,way show-
ing the good example to those who
came to fill her place in this life, a
family of three sons and four
daughters, John in Millinocket, Me.,
Mrs. Jas. Murray, Lot 65, Mrs. Pat-
rick Smith, Newton, Lot 26, Mrs.,B.
McGuigan, Amesbury, Mass.; Mrs.
Ed. Birt, Berlin, N. Hampshire. Her

quies were performed by her beloved

1845. In 1878 he was married to
Catherine Cameron, who proceeded

years to A any-ne dying Jan. za, me

In the larger financial centres, such
as New York, Montreal and Toronto.
there are to be found at least two se-
curity markets. the chief one being
the stock exchange and in most cases
the second in importance being the
curb market. The stock exchange is
famillarly known as the big board
and the curb market as "The Curb,”
and while both are security markets
there exists a difference between the
two, particularly as to the rating or
classification of the securities dealt
in.
Application for Listing
Before a company can have its
shares listed on the big board, ap-
plication for listing must be made to
the listing committee of the ex-
change guarantees nothing, and the
fact that a. stock is listed on the ex-
change is no guarantee that the com-
pany will not get into financial dif-
ficulties, but before a stock is admit-
ted to trading a rather searching en-
quiry is made into the management,
policy, financial structure, etc., of the
company. These listing require-
ments are pretty generally known in
financial circles and once it security
is admitted to the stock exchange,
most people accept it as o bona fide
issue and do not hesitate in accept-
ing it as a good collateral. For this
reason most stockbrckers who carry
on 8. marginal trading business for
their clients will accept as good mar-
gin nearly any stock listed on the big
board because the banks will accept
these securities against their loans.
Occasionally some of these securit-
ies turn out to be unsafe or undesir-
able for investment or speculative
purposes. and fall into ill repute, but
the stock exchange cannot be blamed
for this.
Issue No Statements
There are a. number of companies
who do not care to disclose much in
the way of information oonceming
their operations. For example there
are several companies who have
adopted the policy of not issuing fin-
ancial statements cr balance sheets.
Since this is one of the chief require-

T00 LONG T0 WAIT
A retail dealer in leather goods
wrote to a drm in Massachusetts, or-
dering a carload of merchandise.
The Massachusetts firm wired:
“Cannot ship your order until the
last consignment is paid for."
“Unable to wait so long," tele-
graphed the leather merchant. "Can-
cel the order."

ments for listing on the big board,
aged, progressive, financially sound
and frequently their shares turn out
to be excellent investments, but since
they do not choose to disclose the re-
quired lnformation, an exception can
hardly be made in their favor by the
stock exchange.
There are other companies, who
for one reason or another cannot be,
or do not wish _to be admitted to
the big board. Most of them are
good companies, some are highly
speculative and a few are what are
known as “wildcats.” In order to
meet the demand for trading in these
various securities the curb market
has come into the scheme of things.
