unforeseen changes in the market receives sympathy and help but what bunk or private friend will advance money to a gambler? The betting man who has staked his last shilling and lost it is pronounced a fool and has put himself beyond the reach of practical compassion The sharper who has fleeced him has neither gratitude nor pity He uses his victim as the butt of his ridicule And the victim himself who has risked his money on mere ohanoe or on baseless information or on fraudulent representations freely pronounces himself a fool judging himself in the light of the issue To fancy that we shall be exceptions and wiu where others have lost that we shall be the solitary lucky ones among the thousands unlucky is a folly to which we are all liable but it is none the less a folly It is stated that the winnings of the table or bank at Monte Carlo last year amounted to that is to say this was the net sum lost by those who played Yet each gambler who stakes his little pile fancies ho will be the one to win There are some thousands of bookmakers in our owu country Out of whose pockets do they pick so comfortable a living?
