Another suitor of hers is a man of the world, of wealth almost equal to her own, and one whose worldly experience would naturally give him a pretty solid advantage over the boy in any game. Early in the story we see the girl warn the boy against his propensity and try to elicit from him the promise to stop his operations with the stock market. A little later the older man sees an order which the young man has just made for the buying of some shares of a certain traction stock, S.Y. & D. He conceals the idea of putting the boy out of business. The plan succeeds admirably and the boy is reduced to the verge of desperation. Both men tell of their operations and the girl decides to take a hand in the game herself, and going to her own broker, instructs him to buy S.Y. & D. until the market turns and climbs up again. He does so, and of course the young man is thus rescued and the older man put to confusion. And then our heroine is able to tell her young friend that his stock speculations were not so wisely that his stock speculations were not so wisely managed as he thought. In fact that he is indebted for his success entirely to her own handling of the market for him, but which manipulation she has acquired the title of the "great bull," although her transactions have been carried on entirely through the broker and without anyone else knowing who the "great bull" was. In this way she cures the boy of his infatuation, and of course when the older man learns who the "great bull" was and how his plans have been defeated, the only thing left for him to do is to gracefully withdraw from the race, which he does.
