"ANXIOUS INQUIRER" wishes to be informed what is the difference between
Preferred and Deferred. If he will tell us how much he expects to receive
in each case, the mere calculation of the difference will be an easy
matter; but to receive it is quite another affair. If he wishes to know the
"distinction" between these two classes of "securities," it may be summed
up in the answer to the question, "Will you have it now, or wait till you
get it?"
"A PUZZLED ONE."--Sell everything.
"MEET ME BY MIDNIGHT."--Yes. A Loan.
"LAMBKIN."--Part with No. 2, &c., but take care of No. 1.
"INSIDER."--Get out.
"TOTTIE TOTTS."--Here for private consultation from 5 to 7 P.M.
"RICHARD."--_Buy_ Bizzy B's, _Sell_ Early P's, and Spoiled Fives. _Buy_
Jingoes.
"BRUNO."--"Bear" your burdens.
"ADA WITH THE GOLDENHAIR."--Send photo at once. Cannot advise until we know
your figure.

E.C."

personal remarks about People in their presence_). "GOOD-BYE. I'LL NOT TELL
NURSE WHAT I THINK OF YOUR NOSE TILL YOU'RE GONE!"]
