                        AN OVERVIEW OF THE FUND

GOALS

      The Fund is a money market fund and its primary investment goal  is
to  achieve  as  high  a level of current income as  is  consistent  with
preserving capital and providing liquidity.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

      The  Fund is managed to provide a stable share price of $1.00,  but
there  can  be no assurance that the net asset value per share  will  not
vary.   The Fund invests only in short-term instruments (maturing in  397
days  or  less) and primarily invests in commercial paper, variable  rate
demand  notes, other corporate debt instruments that meet specific credit
quality   and   maturity  standards,  government  securities,   financial
institution   obligations,  and  repurchase  agreements   involving   the
foregoing securities.

      Money  market funds, such as the Fund, must meet certain  portfolio
credit quality, maturity and diversification standards established by the
SEC  under  the  Investment Company Act.  The Fund manages its  portfolio
subject  to  these  strict SEC guidelines.  To  minimize  the  effect  of
changing interest rates on the net asset value of the Fund's shares,  the
Fund intends to keep the weighted average maturity of its holdings to  90
days or less.

      The Fund's Adviser uses its best judgment in selecting investments,
taking  into  consideration interest rates, terms  and  marketability  of
obligations as well as the capitalization, earnings, liquidity and  other
indicators  of  the  financial condition of the  issuer  in  arriving  at
investment decisions.

       For   further  information  on  the  Fund's  principal  investment
strategies  and how the Fund invests, see "Fund Investments" starting  on
page __.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING

      Since money market funds are managed to maintain a $1.00 price  per
share  money market funds, such as the Fund, should have little  risk  of
principal  loss.  Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value  of  your
investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by  investing
in the Fund.  For example, there are risks that the Fund's holdings could
have their credit ratings downgraded, or an issuer could default, or that
interest  rates  could rise sharply, thereby causing  the  value  of  the
Fund's securities (and its share price) to fall.  As a result, there is a
risk that the price of the Fund's shares could fall below a $1.00.

      In  addition,  the Fund's yield will vary; it is not  fixed  for  a
specific  period like the yield on a bank certificate of deposit.   There
also is no guarantee that the Fund's return will equal or exceed the rate
of inflation.

      The Fund is subject to strict standards relating to its investments
under federal law, including requirements to maintain high credit quality
in  its  portfolio, maintain a short average portfolio maturity to reduce
the  effects  of changes in interest rates on the value of the  portfolio
and  to  diversify  the Fund's investments among issuers  to  reduce  the
effects of a default by any one issuer on the value of the Fund's shares.

      As  with all mutual funds, there is no guarantee that the Fund will
achieve  its goals.  In view of the risks inherent in all investments  in
securities,  there  is no assurance that the Fund's  objectives  will  be
achieved.   In  addition, certain investments by  the  Fund  and  certain
investment  techniques the Fund may use may entail other  risks.   Before
you invest, please read "Investment Risks" starting on page ___.

      AN  INVESTMENT  IN  THE FUND IS NOT INSURED OR  GUARANTEED  BY  THE
FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD  OR  ANY
OTHER  AGENCY OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.  ALTHOUGH THE FUND TRYS TO MAINTAIN
A $1.00 PER SHARE PRICE, IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOSE MONEY BY INVESTING IN THE
FUND.

WHO MAY WANT TO INVEST

     The Fund may be appropriate for investors who:

          *    Want to earn income at current money market rates while
               preserving the value of their initial investment
          *    Want a fund to complement a portfolio of more aggressive
               investments
          *    Want a fund for short-term investments
          *    Desire a relatively secure, liquid investment for money
               they may need for occasional or unexpected expenses

    The Fund may NOT be appropriate if you:

          *    Require capital appreciation to meet your investment goal
          *    Are seeking maximum income

       Because of the high degree of safety they provide, money market
funds typically offer the lowest return potential of any type of mutual
fund.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

    Mutual fund performance is commonly measured as total return.  Total
return measures the price change in a share assuming reinvestment of all
dividend income and capital gains distributions.  All mutual funds must
use the same formula to calculate total return.  The total returns that
follow are based on historical results and do not reflect the effect of
taxes.

    The bar chart and table shown below indicate the risks of investing
in the Fund, by showing the variability of the Fund's total return from
year to year for the last ten calendar years, and by showing how the
Fund's historical performance compares with an alternative measure of
market performance.  Variability of returns is one measure of the risks
of investing in money market funds.  Although the Fund has experienced no
losses, its returns, as shown below, have reflected changes in prevailing
interest rates.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

     Mr. Jeffrey T. May is the Senior Vice President and Treasurer of the
Fund and the Nicholas Company, Inc., the Fund's Adviser (the "Adviser"),
and the Portfolio Manager of the Fund.  Mr. May is primarily responsible
for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio.  Mr. May has been
employed by the Adviser since July 1987.  He is a Certified Public
Accountant.
                             FUND INVESTMENTS

         The Fund's main goal is to achieve as high a level of
    current income as is consistent with preserving capital and
    providing liquidity.
    
         The Fund is managed to provide a stable share price of
    $1.00.  The Fund's Adviser uses its best judgment in selecting
    investments, taking into consideration interest rates, terms and
    marketability of obligations as well as the capitalization,
    earnings, liquidity and other indicators of the financial
    condition of the issuer arriving at investment decisions.  Money
    market funds, such as the Fund, must meet certain portfolio
    credit quality, maturity and diversification standards
    established by the SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940
    (the "Investment Company Act").  To minimize the effect of
    changing interest rates on the net asset value of the Fund's
    shares, the Fund intends to keep the weighted average maturity of
    its holdings to 90 days or less.
    
         To pursue the Fund's goal of high current income consistent
    with stability of principal and providing liquidity, the Fund
    invests only in short-term instruments (maturing in 397 days or
    less) and primarily invests in the following types of securities:
    
                   COMMERCIAL PAPER.  (A SHORT-TERM UNSECURED
              PROMISSORY NOTE THAT DOMESTIC OR FOREIGN CORPORATIONS
              TYPICALLY ISSUE TO FINANCE CURRENT OPERATIONS AND OTHER
              SHORT-TERM CREDIT NEEDS.)  The Fund may buy commercial
              paper only if it meets the following quality standards:
    
                        (a)  maturity of 397 days or less from the
                   date of purchase; and
    
                        (b)  rated A-2 or better by Standard & Poor's
                   Corporation ("S&P") or P-2 or better by Moody's
                   Investor Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), or the
                   equivalent rating by any of the national rating
                   organizations.
    
                   If commercial paper is not rated as described
              above, the Fund may only invest in it if it is issued
              or guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest
              by companies which at the date of investment have an
              outstanding debt issue rated AA or better by S&P or Aa
              or better by Moody's or the equivalent by any national
              rating organization or are believed by the Fund's Board
              of Directors to be of comparable quality.
    
                   VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTES.  (UNSECURED
              INSTRUMENTS WHICH PROVIDE FOR PERIODIC ADJUSTMENTS IN
              THE INTEREST RATE.)  The Fund may purchase these
              instruments if:
    
                        (a)  rated A-2 or better by S&P and P-2 or
                   better by Moody's or the equivalent by any of the
                   national rating organizations; or
    
                        (b)  if not rated, either issued by companies
                   which at the date of investment have an
                   outstanding debt issue rated AA or better by S&P
                   or Aa or better by Moody's on the date of
                   purchase.
    
                   OTHER CORPORATE OBLIGATIONS.  Other debt
              obligations issued by companies with a maturity of not
              more than 397 days from the date of purchase and rated
              at least AA by S&P or Aa by Moody's or the equivalent
              by any national recognized statistical rating
              organizations ("NSRSO") on the date of purchase.
    
                   GOVERNMENT SECURITIES.  (OBLIGATIONS ISSUED OR
              GUARANTEED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, OR ANY OF ITS
              AGENCIES OR INSTRUMENTALITIES, OR OTHER GOVERNMENT

              OF DEPOSIT AND BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES.) Investments must
              be obligations of:
    
                        (a)  U.S. banks or savings and loan
                   associations (including foreign branches of such
                   banks) with a net worth of at least $100,000,000
                   or other banks and savings and loans if the
                   principal amount of the Fund's investment in a
                   certificate of deposit is insured by the Federal
                   Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"); or
    
                        (b)  U.S. branches of foreign banks with
                   total assets of at least $1 billion U.S.
    
                   CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT are certificates issued
              against funds deposited in a bank (including eligible
              foreign branches of U.S. banks), are for a definite
              period of time, earn a specified rate of interest and
              are normally negotiable.
    
                   BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES are short-term credit
              instruments used to finance the import, export,
              transfer or storage of goods.  They are termed
              "accepted" when a bank guarantees their payment at
              maturity.
    
                   REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  Repurchase agreements
              involving the securities listed above.  However, the
              Fund may not enter into repurchase agreements which
              will not mature within seven days if any such
              investment, together with all other assets held by the
              Fund which are not readily marketable, exceeds 10% of
              the Fund's total net assets.
    
         There is no minimum or maximum percentage of the Fund's
    assets which is required to be invested in the securities of
    companies in any particular industry or group of industries.
    However, the Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets
    in securities of unseasoned companies (companies with a record of
    less than three years' continuous operations).  In addition, the
    Fund may not invest more than 5% of the value of its total assets
    in the securities of one issuer and not more than 25% of the
    value of its total assets in companies of any one industry or
    group of related industries.  These percentage limitations do NOT
    apply to securities issued or guaranteed by the United States,
    its instrumentalities or agencies.  In addition, the 25% industry-
    related restriction does not apply to obligations (including
    certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances) of banks or
    savings and loan associations subject to regulation by the U.S.
    Government.
    
         FOR A DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER AND BOND RATINGS,
    PLEASE SEE APPENDIX A TO THIS PROSPECTUS.
    
         All percentage limitations apply on the date of investment
    by the Fund.  As a result, if a percentage restriction is adhered
    to at the time of the investment, a later increase in percentage
    resulting from a change in market value of the investment or
    total assets of the Fund will not constitute a violation of that
    restriction.  The Fund may use many different investment
    strategies in seeking its investment objectives, and it has
    certain investment restrictions.  These strategies and certain of
    the restrictions and policies governing the Fund's investments
    are explained in detail in the Fund's Statement of Additional
    Information, which is incorporated by reference herein.  If you
    would like to learn more about how the Fund may invest, you
    should request a copy of the Statement of Additional Information.

                            INVESTMENT RISKS
    
         This section contains a summary description of the general
    risks of investing in the Fund.  As with any mutual fund, there
    can be no guarantee that the Fund will meet its goals or that the
    Fund's performance will be positive over any period of time.
    
         Since money market funds are managed to maintain a $1.00 per
    share price, money market funds, such as the Fund, should have
    little risk of principal loss.  Although the Fund seeks to
    preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is
    possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. In addition, the
    Fund's yield will vary; it is not fixed for a specific period
    like the yield on a bank certificate of deposit.  There also is
    no guarantee that the Fund's return will equal or exceed the rate
    of inflation.
    
         CREDIT RISK.  There is a risk that any of the issuers of the
         securities held by the Fund may have its credit rating
         downgraded or will default (fail to make scheduled interest
         or principal payments), potentially reducing the Fund's
         income level and share price.
    
         INTEREST RATE OR MARKET RISK.  A sharp and unexpected rise
         in interest rates could result in a decline in the prices of
         fixed income securities in which the Fund invests.  As a
         result, the Fund's share price could drop below $1.00.
    
         FOREIGN INVESTMENT RISK. Investments in obligations of a
         foreign branch of a U.S. bank and U.S. branches of a foreign
         bank may subject the Fund to certain investment risks,
         including international and political developments, foreign
         government restrictions, foreign withholding taxes, possible
         seizure or nationalization of deposits, the establishment of
         exchange control regulations and the adoption of other
         governmental restrictions that might affect the payment of
         principal and interest on those securities.  In addition,
         foreign branches of domestic banks and foreign banks are not
         necessarily subject to the same regulatory requirements that
         apply to domestic banks, such as reserve requirements, loan
         limitations, examinations, accounting and record keeping.
         The Fund is subject to certain investment restrictions on
         foreign investing as described above.
    
         REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  The Fund may buy securities with the
         understanding that the seller may buy them back with
         interest at a later date.  If the seller is unable to honor
         its commitment to repurchase the securities, the Fund could
         lose money.  The Fund is subject to certain investment
         restrictions on repurchase agreements as described above.
    
         ILLIQUID AND RESTRICTED SECURITIES.  From time to time, the
         Fund may purchase a portion of bonds, debentures or other
         debt securities in private placements, in amounts not to
         exceed 10% of the value of the total assets of the Fund.
         Investments may be illiquid because of the absence of an
         active trading market, making it difficult to value them or
         dispose of them properly at an acceptable price.  Restricted
         securities may have a contractual limit on resale or may
         require registration under federal securities laws before
         they can be sold publicly.  However, the Fund is subject to
         an overriding restriction that all illiquid securities held
         by the Fund may not exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's
         total net assets.  Difficulty in selling a security may
         result in a loss to the Fund or additional costs.
    
              AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED
         BY THE FDIC, THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD OR ANY OTHER AGENCY
         OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.  ALTHOUGH THE FUND TRYS TO MAINTAIN
         A $1.00 PER SHARE PRICE, IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOSE MONEY BY
         INVESTING IN THE FUND.
    
         While the Fund is subject to the risks as summarized above,
    the Fund is subject to strict requirements relating to its
    investments under federal law. The Fund must maintain high credit
    quality in its portfolio, maintain a short average portfolio
    maturity to reduce the effects of changes in interest rates on
    the value of the Fund's securities and diversify the Fund's
    investments among issuers so as to reduce the effects of a
    default by any one issuer on the value of the Fund's shares.
    
                  FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

     The financial highlights table below is intended to help you
understand the Fund's financial performance for the past five
fiscal years.  Certain information reflects financial results for
a single Fund share.  The total returns in the table represent
the rate that an investor would have earned on an investment in
the Fund (assuming the reinvestment of all dividends and
distributions).  The following Financial Highlights of the Fund
for the five years ended December 31, 1998, have been examined by
Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, whose report
thereon is included in the Fund's Annual Report for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1998.  The Financial Highlights should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and related
notes included in the Fund's Annual Report which is incorporated
by reference into the Statement of Additional Information and

  PLEASE CONSIDER THE PERFORMANCE INFORMATION ABOVE IN LIGHT OF THE FUND'S
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES, AND MARKET CONDITIONS DURING THE

PERFORMANCE DOES NOT NECESSARILY INDICATE WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE
FUTURE.

    
                        PERFORMANCE DATA

     From time to time the Fund may advertise its current yield,
usually for a seven or 30-day period.  The yield will be
calculated using a standard method prescribed by rules of the
SEC.  Under that method, the Fund's net investment income per
share is divided by the price per share (EXPECTED TO REMAIN
CONSTANT AT $1.00) and the result is divided by seven or 30,
depending on the base period advertised, and multiplied by 365.
The Fund also may quote the effective yield in its advertisements
and sales materials.  Effective yield is determined by taking the
"base period return," computed by dividing the net investment
income per share by the price per share during the period
(expected to remain constant at $1.00), and calculating the
effect of compounding.  The Fund's current yield and effective
yield will be based on historical earnings and are not intended
to indicate future performance.  These yields may be compared to
those of other money market funds and to other relevant indices
or rankings prepared by independent services.  Further
information concerning yield calculations is contained in the
Statement of Additional Information.

     In sales materials, reports and other communications to
shareholders, the Fund may compare its performance to certain
indices.  The Fund also may include evaluations of the Fund
published by nationally recognized financial publications and
ranking services, such as IBC Financial Data, Inc., Lipper
Analytical Services Mutual Fund Performance Analysis and
Morningstar, Inc., CDA Investment Technologies, Inc. and Value
Line, Inc.
   
    
                 THE FUND'S INVESTMENT ADVISER

     Nicholas Company, Inc., located at 700 North Water Street,
Suite 1010, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 53202, is the Fund's investment
adviser.  The Adviser furnishes the Fund with continuous
investment service and is responsible for overall management of
the Fund's business affairs subject to supervision of the Fund's
Board of Directors.

     The Adviser is the investment adviser to five other mutual
funds, which, like the Fund, are sold without sales charge, and
to approximately 25 institutions and individuals with substantial
investment portfolios.  The Adviser acts as investment adviser to
the following additional mutual funds:  Nicholas Fund, Inc.,
Nicholas Income Fund, Inc., Nicholas II, Inc., Nicholas Limited
Edition, Inc. and Nicholas Equity Income Fund, Inc.  As of
December 31, 1998, the Adviser had approximately $8.0 billion in
assets under management.

     The annual fee paid to the Adviser is paid monthly and is
based on the average net asset value of the Fund, as determined
by valuations made at the close of each business day of the
month.  The annual fee is three-tenths of one percent (0.30 of
1%) of the average net asset value of the Fund.  The Adviser has
agreed to reduce such management fee by any operating expenses
(other than the management fee) incurred by the Fund in excess of
1/2 of 1% of average daily net assets.  The Adviser may, at its
discretion, reduce the management fee.  Such optional
reimbursement by the Adviser of operating expenses previously
incurred by the Fund will serve to temporarily enhance yield.
Any required reimbursement will be made on a monthly basis as a
reduction of the management fee payable to the Adviser for that
month.  Any optional reimbursement will be made at a time
determined by the Adviser.

     Under an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Fund, the
Adviser, at its own expense and without reimbursement from the
Fund, furnishes the Fund with office space, office facilities,
executive officers and executive expenses (such as health
insurance premiums for executive officers).  The Adviser also
bears all sales and promotional expenses of the Fund, other than
expenses incurred in complying with laws regulating the issue or
sale of securities.

     The Fund pays all of its operating expenses.  Included as
"operating expenses" are fees of directors who are not interested
persons of the Adviser or officers or employees of the Fund,
salaries of administrative and clerical personnel, association
membership dues, auditing and accounting services, legal fees and
expenses, printing, fees and expenses of any custodian or trustee
having custody of Fund assets, postage, charges and expenses of
dividend disbursing agents, registrars and stock transfer agents,
including the cost of keeping all necessary shareholder records
and accounts and handling any problems related thereto, and
certain other costs and costs related to the aforementioned
items.

     The Adviser has undertaken to reimburse the Fund to the
extent that the aggregate annual operating expenses, including
the investment advisory fee, but excluding interest, taxes,
brokerage commissions, litigation and extraordinary expenses,
exceed the lowest, i.e., most restrictive, percentage of the
Fund's average net assets established by the laws of the states
in which the Fund's shares are registered for sale as determined
by valuations made as of the close of each business day of the
year.  The Adviser shall reimburse the Fund at the end of any
fiscal year in which the aggregate annual operating expenses
exceed such restrictive percentage.

     Albert O. Nicholas is President and a Director of the Fund,
and Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Adviser, and is a
controlling person of the Adviser through his ownership of 91% of
the outstanding voting securities of the Adviser.

   
               PRICING OF FUND SHARES AND USE OF
              AMORTIZED COST METHOD OF EVALUATION

     When you buy shares of the Fund, the price per share you pay
is the NET ASSET VALUE ("NAV") of a share of the Fund.  The NAV
of a share of the Fund is determined by dividing the total value
in U.S. dollars of the Fund's total net assets by the total
number of shares outstanding at that time.  The NAV of the Fund's
shares is expected by management to remain constant at $1.00 per
share.  Net assets of the Fund are determined by deducting the
liabilities of the Fund from total assets of the Fund.  The NAV
is determined as of the close of trading on the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") on each day the NYSE is open for unrestricted
trading and when the Federal Reserve Banks are open for business.

     Portfolio securities are valued on an amortized cost basis,
whereby a security is initially valued at its acquisition cost.
Thereafter, a constant straight-line amortization is assumed each
day regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates.

     Pursuant to Section 270.2a-7 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, the Board of Directors has established procedures
designed to stabilize the NAV per share at $1.00.  Under most
conditions, management believes this will be possible, but there
can be no assurance they can do so on a continuous basis.  In
connection with its use of the amortized cost method of valuation
and in order to hold itself out as a "money market" fund, the
Fund will comply with the applicable provisions of Section 270.2a-
7, and in particular, will comply with the following:  (i) the
Fund will maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity
appropriate to its objective of maintaining a stable NAV per
share and specifically will limit the dollar weighted average
portfolio maturity of the Fund to not more than 90 days and the
remaining maturity of each portfolio security to not more than
397 days (with certain exceptions permitted by the rules of the
SEC); (ii) the Fund will limit its portfolio investments to those
instruments its Board of Directors determines present minimal
credit risks, and are otherwise in accordance with the Fund's
investment objectives and restrictions; and (iii) the Fund will
adhere to the portfolio diversification requirements set forth in
Section 270.2a-7.  Calculations are done periodically to compare
the value of the Fund's portfolio at amortized cost versus
current market values.  In the event the per share NAV should
deviate from $1.00 by 1/2 of 1% or more, the Board of Directors
will promptly consider what action, if any, should be taken.

  MINIMUM           To Open An Account.........   $2,000
INVESTMENTS         To Add To An Account.......   $  100
  [ICON]            Minimum Balance............   $2,000

                         The Fund's Automatic Investment Plan has
                    a minimum monthly investment of $50.  Due to
                    fixed expenses incurred by the Fund in
                    maintaining individual accounts, the Fund
                    reserves the right to redeem accounts that
                    fall below the $2,000 minimum investment
                    required due to shareholder redemption (but
                    not solely due to a decrease in net asset
                    value of the Fund).  In order to exercise
                    this right, the Fund will give advance
                    written notice of at least 30 days to the
                    accounts below such minimum.

                         When you make a purchase, your purchase
                    price per share will be the net asset value
                    ("NAV") per share next determined after the
                    time the Fund receives your application in
                    proper order.  The NAV is calculated once a
                    day based on the closing market price for
                    each security held in the Fund's portfolio.
                    The determination of NAV for a particular day
                    is applicable to all purchase applications
                    received by the close of trading on the

 CERTIFICATES            Certificates representing Fund shares
   [ICON]           purchased will not be  issued unless the shareholder
                    specifically requests certificates by written
                    notice to the Fund.  Signature guarantees may
                    be required.  Certificates are mailed to
                    requesting shareholders approximately two
                    weeks after receipt of the request by the
                    Fund.  In no instance will certificates be
                    issued for fractional shares.  Where
                    certificates are not requested, the Fund's
                    transfer agent, Firstar, will credit the
                    shareholder's account with the number of
                    shares purchased.  Written confirmations are
                    issued for all purchases of Fund shares.

 THIRD PARTY              USE OF A PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY TO PURCHASE
  PURCHASES         FUND SHARES.  Shares of the Fund may be purchased      
   [ICON]           through  certain broker-dealers, financial            
                    institutions or other service providers
                    ("Processing Intermediaries").  When shares
                    of the Fund are purchased this way, the
                    Processing Intermediary, rather than its
                    customer, may be the shareholder of record.
                    Processing Intermediaries may use procedures
                    and impose restrictions in addition to or
                    different from those applicable to
                    shareholders who invest in the Fund directly.
                    An investor intending to invest in the Fund
                    through a Processing Intermediary should read
                    the program materials provided by the
                    Processing Intermediary in conjunction with
                    this Prospectus.

                                Processing Intermediaries may
                    charge fees or other charges for the services
                    they provide to their customers.  Such
                    charges may vary among Processing
                    Intermediaries, but in all cases will be
                    retained by the Processing Intermediary and
                    not remitted to the Fund or the Adviser.

                                Investors who do not wish to use
                    the services of a Processing Intermediary, or
                    pay the fees that may be charged for such
                    services, may want to consider investing
                    directly with the Fund.  Direct purchase of
                    shares of the Fund may be made without a
                    sales charge.

                                The Fund also may enter into an
                    arrangement with some Processing
                    Intermediaries authorizing them to process
                    purchase orders on behalf of the Fund on an
                    expedited basis (an "authorized agent").
                    Receipt of a purchase order by an authorized
                    agent will be deemed to be received by the
                    Fund for purposes of determining the NAV of
                    the Fund shares to be purchased.  For
                    purchase orders placed through an authorized
                    agent, a shareholder will pay the Fund's NAV
                    per share next computed after the receipt by
                    the authorized agent of such purchase order,
                    plus any applicable transaction charge
                    imposed by the agent.

                         on the NEXT day the NYSE is open.

                         transfer, in either case with signatures
                         guaranteed by an "eligible guarantor

                         a member firm of a national securities
                         exchange.  A notary public is not an
                         acceptable guarantor.

                         IF CERTIFICATES HAVE NOT BEEN ISSUED,
                         you may redeem by delivering an original
                         signed written request for redemption
                         addressed to Nicholas Money Market Fund, Inc.,

                         Transfer to Minors Act), or general
                         partners, the written request must be
                         signed exactly as the account is
                         registered.  If the account is owned
                         jointly, all owners must sign.

                                               
          FACSIMILE TRANSMISSION OF REDEMPTION REQUESTS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

                                The Fund may require additional
                    supporting documents for written redemptions
                    made by corporations, executors,
                    administrators, trustees and guardians.

                    corporate resolution signed by the authorized
                    person(s).  A redemption request for accounts
                    registered in the name of a legal trust must
                    have a copy of the title and signature page
                    of the trust agreement on file or must be
                    accompanied by the trust agreement and signed
                    by the trustee(s).

                    modified or terminated at any time by the
                    Fund or Firstar.  Neither the Fund nor
                    Firstar will be responsible for the
                    authenticity of redemption instructions
                    received by telephone which they reasonably
                    believe to be genuine, even if such
                    instructions prove to be unauthorized or
                    fraudulent.  The Fund and Firstar will employ
                    reasonable procedures to confirm that
                    instructions received by telephone are
                    genuine, and if they do not, they may be
                    liable for losses due to unauthorized or
                    fraudulent instructions.
   
   EFFECT OF                    The Fund ordinarily will make
  REDEMPTION        payment for redeemed shares within seven days              
    [ICON]          after receipt of a request in proper form,
                    except as provided by the rules of the
                    Securities and Exchange Commission.
                    Redemption proceeds to be wired also
                    ordinarily will be wired within seven days
                    after receipt of the request, and normally
                    will be wired on the next business day after
                    a NAV is determined.  The Fund reserves the
                    right to hold payment up to 15 days or until
                    satisfied that investments made by check have
                    been collected.
    

                                You may instruct Firstar to mail
                    the proceeds to the address of record or to
                    directly mail the proceeds to a pre-
                    authorized bank account.  The proceeds also
                    may be wired to a pre-authorized account at a
                    commercial bank in the United States.
                    Firstar charges a wire redemption fee of
                    $12.00.  Please contact the Fund for the
                    appropriate form if you are interested in
                    setting your account up with wiring
                    instructions.

  SIGNATURE               A signature guarantee of each owner
 GUARANTEES         is required to redeem shares in the following
  [ICON]            situations, for all size transactions:

                    *     if you change the ownership on your account

                    *     upon redemption of shares when certificates
                          have been issued for your account

                    *     when you want the redemption proceeds sent to a
                          different address than is registered on
                          the account

                    *     for both certificated and uncertificated shares,
                          if the proceeds are to be made payable
                          to someone other than the account owner(s)

                    *     any redemption transmitted by federal wire transfer
                          to your bank not previously set up with the
                          Fund

                    *     if a change of address request has been received
                          by the Fund or Firstar within 15 days of a
                          redemption request

                          In addition, signature guarantees
                    will be required for all redemptions of
                    $100,000 or more from any shareholder account
                    in the Nicholas Family of Funds.  A
                    redemption will not be processed until the
                    signature guarantee, if required, is received
                    in proper form.  A notary public is not an
                    acceptable guarantor.
   
THIRD PARTY         USE OF A PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY TO REDEEM FUND SHARES.
REDEMPTIONS         As with the purchase of Fund shares, shares of the Fund
 [ICON]             may be sold through certain broker-dealers,
                    financial institutions and other service
                    providers ("Processing Intermediaries").  An
                    investor intending to redeem Fund shares
                    through his or her Processing Intermediary
                    should read the program materials provided by
                    the Processing Intermediary and follow the
                    instructions and procedures outlined therein.

                                Processing Intermediaries may
                    charge fees or other charges for the services
                    they provide to their customers.  Such
                    charges vary among Processing Intermediaries,
                    but in all cases will be retained by the
                    Processing Intermediary and not remitted to
                    the Fund or the Adviser.

                                Investors who do not wish to use
                    the services of a Processing Intermediary, or
                    pay the fees that may be charged for such
                    services, may want to consider investing
                    directly with the Fund.  IF YOU HOLD FUND
                    SHARES THROUGH A PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY, YOU
                    MUST REDEEM YOUR SHARES THROUGH SUCH
                    PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY.  IN SUCH EVENT, YOU
                    SHOULD CONTACT THE PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY
                    FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO REDEEM.  If an
                    investor has originally invested directly
                    with the Fund, direct sale of Fund shares
                    through the Fund (and not the Processing
                    Intermediary) may be made without a
                    redemption charge.

                                The Fund also may enter into an
                    arrangement with some Processing
                    Intermediaries authorizing them to process
                    redemption requests on behalf of the Fund on
                    an expedited basis (an  "authorized agent").
                    Receipt of a redemption request by an
                    authorized agent will be deemed to be
                    received by the Fund for purposes of
                    determining the NAV of Fund shares to be
                    redeemed.  For redemption orders placed
                    through an authorized agent, a shareholder
                    will receive redemption proceeds which
                    reflect net asset value per share next
                    computed after the receipt by the authorized
                    agent of the redemption order, less any
                    redemption fees imposed by the agent.
    
                    EXCHANGE BETWEEN FUNDS
                    You may exchange Fund shares for shares of other

             (1)       Shareholders    are    reminded,  however,
                       that      Nicholas    Limited     Edition,
                       Inc.  is  restricted  in  size  to ten
                       million shares (without taking into account
                       shares outstanding as a result of capital
                       gain and dividend distributions), and that
                       the exchange privilege into that mutual
                       fund may be terminated or modified at any
                       time or times when that maximum is reached.

                                        If you choose to exercise
                    the exchange privilege, the shares will be
                    exchanged at their next determined net asset
                    value.  Shareholders interested in exercising
                    the exchange privilege must obtain an
                    authorization form and the appropriate
                    prospectus from Nicholas Company, Inc.  When
                    an exchange into the Fund would involve
                    investment of the exchanged amount on a day
                    when the New York Stock Exchange is open for
                    trading but the Federal Reserve Banks are
                    closed, shares of the fund will be redeemed on
                    the day upon which the exchange request is
                    received; however, issuance of Fund shares may
                    be delayed an additional business day in order
                    to avoid the dilutive effect on return (i.e.,
                    reduction in net investment income per share)
                    which would result from issuance of such
                    shares on a day when the exchanged amount
                    cannot be invested.  In such a case, the
                    exchanged amount would be uninvested for this
                    one day period.
                                        Shares of the Fund will
                    not be redeemed on any day when the Federal
                    Reserve Banks are closed.

                                         Shareholders interested
                    in exercising the exchange privilege must
                    obtain the appropriate prospectus from
                    Nicholas Company, Inc.

                                        This exchange privilege is
                    available only in states where shares of the
                    fund being acquired may legally be sold, and
                    the privilege may be terminated or modified
                    only upon 60 days advance notice to
                    shareholders; however, procedures for
                    exchanging Fund shares by telephone may be
                    modified or terminated at any time by the Fund
                    or Firstar.
   
    
 EXCHANGE                You may exchange shares of  the Fund for

  MAIL              directly through Nicholas Company, Inc.
 [ICON]             without cost by written  request.

                         If you are interested in exercising the
                    exchange by mail privilege, you may obtain the
                    appropriate prospectus from Nicholas Company, Inc.
                    Signatures required are the same as previously
                    explained under "Redemption of Fund Shares."

 EXCHANGE                You may exchange by telephone among
    BY              all funds for which the Nicholas Company, Inc.
 TELEPHONE          serves as investment adviser. Only exchanges of
  [ICON]            $500 or more may be executed using the telephone
                    exchange privilege. Firstar charges a $5.00 fee
                    for each telephone exchange.  In an effort to
                    avoid the risks  often associated with large
                    market timers, the maximum telephone exchange
                    per account per day is set at $100,000, with a
                    maximum of $l,000,000 per day for related accounts.
                    Four telephone exchanges per account during any
                    twelve month period will be allowed. 

                         Procedures for exchanging  Fund shares by
                    telephone may be modified or terminated at any
                    time   by   the   Fund   or   Firstar.
                    Neither the  Fund  nor  Firstar   will be
                    responsible for the authenticity of exchange
                    instructions received by telephone.  Telephone
                    exchanges can only be made by calling Firstar
                    at 414-276-0535 or 800-544-6547.  You will be
                    required to provide pertinent information
                    regarding your account.  Calls will be
                    recorded.

                     TRANSFER OF FUND SHARES

   You may transfer Fund shares in instances such as the death of
a shareholder, change of account registration, change of account
ownership and in cases where shares of the Fund are transferred as
a gift.  Documents and instructions necessary to transfer capital
stock can be obtained by writing or calling Firstar (414-276-0535
or 800-544-6547) or Nicholas Company, Inc. (414-272-6133 or 800-
227-5987) prior to submitting any transfer requests.

                 DIVIDENDS AND FEDERAL TAX STATUS

   The Fund intends to continue to qualify annually as a
"regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 and intends to take all other action required to insure that
little or no Federal income or excise taxes will be payable by the
Fund.  As a result, the Fund generally will seek to distribute
annually to its shareholders substantially all of its net
investment income and net realized capital gain (after utilization
of any available capital loss carryovers).

   The net investment income increased or reduced by realized
gains or losses, if any, for each day is declared as a dividend to
shareholders of record.  Shares purchased will begin earning
dividends on the business day following the day the purchase order
is confirmed.  Shares redeemed will earn dividends through the
date of the redemption order.  If you request in writing that your
dividends be paid in cash, the Fund will issue a check within five
business days of the reinvestment date.  If all of your shares are
redeemed during a month, dividends credited to your account from
the beginning of the dividend period through the time of
redemption will be paid with the redemption proceeds.

   A statement of all calendar year-to-date transactions,
including shares accumulated from dividends and capital gain
distributions, is mailed to each shareholder quarterly.
Information as to each shareholder's tax status is given annually.

   For federal income tax purposes, distributions from the Fund,
whether received in cash or invested in additional shares of the
Fund, will be taxable to the Fund's shareholders, except those
shareholders who are not subject to tax on their income.
Distributions paid from the Fund's net investment income are
taxable to shareholders as ordinary income.  The Fund does not
intend to generate capital gains. Because the investment income of
the Fund will be derived from interest rather than dividends, no
portion of such dividends will qualify for the dividends received
deduction for corporations.

   Under federal law, some shareholders may be subject to a 31%
withholding ("backup withholding") on reportable dividends,
capital gain distributions (if any) and redemption payments.
Generally, shareholders subject to backup withholding will be
those (i) for whom a taxpayer identification number is not on file
with the Fund or who, to the Fund's knowledge, have furnished an
incorrect number; or (ii) who have failed to declare or
underreported certain income on their federal returns.  When
establishing an account, an investor must certify under penalties
of perjury that the taxpayer identification number supplied to the
Fund is correct and that he or she is not subject to withholding.

   The foregoing tax discussion relates solely to U.S. federal
income taxes and is not intended to be a complete discussion of
all federal income tax consequences.  Shareholders should consult
with a tax adviser concerning the application of federal, state
and local taxes to an investment in the Fund.
   
                    DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

   Unless you elect to accept cash in lieu of shares, all dividend
and capital gain distributions are automatically reinvested in
additional shares of the Fund through the Dividend Reinvestment
Plan  Unless otherwise requested, dividends will be reinvested
automatically in additional Fund shares on the last business day
of each month.  All reinvestments are at the net asset value per
share in effect on the dividend or distribution date and are
credited to the shareholder's account.  Shareholders will be
advised of the number of shares purchased and the price following
each reinvestment.

   You may withdraw from or thereafter elect to participate in the
Dividend Reinvestment Plan at any time by giving written notice or
telephonic notice to the Transfer Agent.  An election must be
received by the Transfer Agent prior to the dividend record date
of any particular distribution for the election to be effective
for that distribution.  If any election to withdraw from or
participate in the Dividend Reinvestment Plan is received between
a dividend record date and payment date, it shall become effective
on the day following the payment date.  The Fund may modify or
terminate the Dividend Reinvestment Plan at any time on 30 days'
written notice to participants.

                    SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN

   Shareholders who have purchased or currently own $10,000 or
more of Fund shares at the current market value may open a
Systematic Withdrawal Plan ("Plan") and receive monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual or annual checks for any designated amount.
Firstar reinvests all income and capital gain dividends in shares
of the Fund.  Shareholders may add shares to, withdraw shares
from, or terminate the Plan, at any time.  Each withdrawal may be
a taxable event to the shareholder.  Liquidation of the shares in
excess of distributions may deplete or possibly use up the initial
investment, particularly in the event of a market decline, and
withdrawals cannot be considered a yield or income on the
investment.  In addition to termination of the Plan by the Fund or
shareholders, the Plan may be terminated by Firstar upon written
notice mailed to the shareholders.  Please contact Nicholas
Company, Inc. for copies of the Plan documents.
    
                  INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

   Individuals may be able to establish a traditional IRA, a Roth
IRA and/or an Education IRA.  The Fund offers prototype IRA plans
for adoption by individuals who qualify.  A description of
applicable service fees and application forms are available upon
request from the Fund.  The IRA documents also contain a
Disclosure Statement which the IRS requires to be furnished to
individuals who are considering adopting an IRA.  It is important
you obtain up-to-date information from the Fund before opening an
IRA.
   
   Individuals who receive compensation, including earnings from
self-employment, may be entitled to establish and make
contributions to a traditional IRA.  Taxation of the income paid
to a traditional IRA by the Fund is deferred until distribution
from the IRA.

   Contributions to a Roth IRA are not currently deductible.
However, the amounts within the accounts accumulate tax-free and
qualified distributions will not be included in a shareholder's
taxable income.  The contribution limit is $2,000 annually ($4,000
for joint returns) in aggregate with contributions to traditional
IRAs.  Certain income phaseouts apply.

   Like the Roth IRA, contributions to an Education IRA are non-
deductible, but the investment earnings accumulate tax-free, and
distributions used for higher education expenses are not taxable.
Contribution limits are $500 per account and certain income
phaseouts apply.

   As long as the aggregate IRA contributions meet the Fund's
minimum investment requirement of $2,000, the Fund will accept any
allocation of such contribution between spousal, deductible and
non-deductible accounts.  The acceptability of this calculation is
the sole responsibility of the shareholder.  For this reason, it
is advisable for taxpayers to consult with their personal tax
adviser to determine the deductibility of their IRA contributions.
    
   Because a retirement program involves commitments covering
future years, it is important that the investment objectives of
the Fund are consistent with your own retirement objectives.
Premature withdrawals from an IRA may result in adverse tax
consequences.  Consultation with a tax adviser regarding tax
consequences is recommended.

                      MASTER RETIREMENT PLAN

   The Fund has available a Master Retirement Plan (formerly
called a "Keogh" Plan) for self-employed individuals.  Any person
seeking additional information or wishing to participate in the
plan may contact the Fund.  Consultation with a tax adviser
regarding the tax consequences of the plan is recommended.

   
                         YEAR 2000 ISSUES

   The "Year 2000" issue presents a significant technological
challenge for the securities industry.  Due to the limited memory
and the high cost of storage space associated with early computer
equipment, the century was implied rather than actually stored.
As a result, many computer systems are unable to interpret dates
beyond 1999.  Software and hardware which is not designed to work
across centuries may potentially malfunction on January 1, 2000.
Because dates are part of every securities transaction, accurate
date calculations are critical.

   The Fund has focused on the Year 2000 computer conversion issue
and management believes that there should be a smooth transition
on the part of suppliers of services to the Fund.  The Fund's
custodian bank and transfer agent has reported that the necessary
conversion process is in progress, and it appears to have
dedicated the appropriate level of resources to solve the problem.

   The Adviser has identified and is taking steps it believes are
reasonably designed to resolve potential problems and address the
Year 2000 issue, although there can be no assurances that such
steps will be sufficient.  The Adviser, which performs the Fund's
internal accounting and pricing functions, is in the process of re-
engineering its hardware to handle the century date, and has
identified and is taking steps to resolve potential software
problems.  Some systems are currently compliant.  Internal testing
is ongoing, and the Fund expects that all systems will have been
converted by mid-1999.

   In addition, there can be no assurances that the Year 2000
issue will not have an adverse effect on issuers whose securities
are held by the Fund or on global markets or economies generally.
    

                            APPENDIX A


         DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER AND BOND RATINGS


                     COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS

   1.  Standard & Poor's Commercial Paper Ratings.

     "A-1" and "A-2" are the two highest commercial paper rating
   categories, and issuers rated in these categories have the
   following characteristics:  (1) liquidity ratios are adequate
   to meet cash requirements;  (2) the issuer has access to at
   least two additional channels of borrowing;  (3) basic
   earnings and cash flow have an upward trend with allowance
   made for unusual circumstances;  (4) typically, the issuer is
   in a strong position in a well-established industry or
   industries;  and (5) the reliability and quality of
   management is unquestioned.  Relative strength or weakness of
   the above characteristics determine whether an issuer's paper
   is rated "A-1" or "A-2".

   2.  Moody's Investors Service Commercial Paper Ratings.

     "Prime-1" and "Prime-2" are the two highest commercial
   paper rating categories.  Moody's evaluates the salient
   features that affect a commercial paper issuer's financial
   and competitive position.  The appraisal includes, but is not
   limited to, the review of such factors as:  (1) quality of
   management;  (2) industry strengths and risks;  (3)
   vulnerability to business cycles;  (4) competitive position;
   (5) liquidity measurements;  (6) debt structures;  and (7)
   operating trends and access to capital markets.  Different
   degrees of weight are applied to the above factors as deemed
   appropriate for individual situations.


                      CORPORATE BOND RATINGS

   1.  Standard and Poor's Corporate Bond Ratings.

     AAA rated bonds are the highest grade obligations.  They
   possess the ultimate degree of protection as to principal and
   interest.  Marketwise, they move with interest rates, and
   hence provide the maximum safety on all counts.

     AA rated bonds also qualify as high-grade obligations, and
   in the majority of instances differ from AAA issues only in
   small degree.  Here, too, prices move with the long-term
   money market.


   2.  Moody's Corporate Bond Ratings.

     Aaa rated bonds are judged to be of the best quality.  They
   carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are
   generally referred to as "gilt-edged."  Interest payments are
   protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and
   principal is secure.  While the various protective elements
   are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are
   most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of
   such issues.

     Aa rated bonds are judged to be of high quality by all
   standards.  Together with the Aaa group they comprise what
   are generally known as high-grade bonds.  They are rated
   lower than the best bonds because margins of protection may
   not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of
   protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may
   be other elements present which make the long-term risk
   appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities.

                          INTRODUCTION

     Nicholas Money Market Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") was
incorporated under the laws of Maryland on April 15, 1988.  The
Fund is an open-end, diversified management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
the ("1940 Act").  As an open-end investment company, it obtains
its assets by continuously selling shares of its Common Stock,
$0.0001 par value, to the public.  Since higher yielding money
market instruments are often available only in large
denominations, the Fund provides a way for investors to take
advantage of these higher yields that may be beyond the reach of
an individual investor.  As an open-end investment company, the
Fund will redeem any of its outstanding shares on demand of the
owner at their net asset value next determined following receipt
of the redemption request. The investment adviser to the Fund is
Nicholas Company, Inc. (the "Adviser").

                   INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND
                PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

     The Fund has adopted primary investment objectives which are
fundamental policies.  The Fund also has adopted secondary
investment objectives and certain other policies which are not
fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Directors without
shareholder approval.  However, any such change will be made only
upon advance notice to shareholders.  Such changes may result in
the Fund having secondary investment and other policy objectives
different from the objectives which a shareholder considered
appropriate at the time of investment in the Fund.

     The Fund's primary investment objective is to achieve as
high a level of current income as is consistent with preserving
capital and providing liquidity.  There are market risks inherent
in any investment and there can be no assurance the objective of
the Fund will be realized.  The Fund also will attempt to
maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, but there
can be no assurance that the net asset value per share will not
vary.  The Fund invests only in short-term instruments (maturing
in 397 days or less) and primarily invests in:

          1.   Commercial Paper maturing within 397 days from the
          date of purchase rated A-2 or better by Standard &
          Poor's Corporation ("S&P") or P-2 or better by Moody's
          Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), or the equivalent
          by any of the nationally recognized statistical rating
          organizations, as defined in Section 270.2a-7 of the
          Code of Federal Regulations ("NRSROs"), or, if not
          rated, is issued or guaranteed as to payment of
          principal and interest by companies which at the date
          of investment have an outstanding debt issue rated AA
          or better by S&P or Aa or better by Moody's or the
          equivalent by any NRSRO or believed by the Board of
          Directors to be of comparable quality.

               The Fund may invest in commercial paper and other
          short-term corporate obligations which are issued in
          private placements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the
          Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
          Act"), including securities eligible for resale under
          Rule 144A.  Such securities are not registered for
          purchase and sale by the public under the Securities
          Act, and there may be a risk of little or no market for
          resale associated with such securities if the Fund does
          not hold them to maturity.  The determination of the
          liquidity of these securities is a question of fact for
          the Board of Directors to determine, based upon the
          trading markets for the specific security, the
          availability of reliable price information and other
          relevant information.  In addition, to the extent that
          qualified institutional buyers do not purchase
          restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144A, the Fund's
          investing in such securities may have the effect of
          increasing the level of illiquidity in the Fund's
          portfolio.

               Commercial paper refers to promissory notes issued
          by corporations in order to finance their short-term
          credit needs.

          2.   Variable rate demand notes rated A-2 or better by
          S&P and P-2 or better by Moody's or the equivalent by
          any NRSRO;  if not rated, either (a) issued by
          companies which at the date of investment have an
          outstanding debt issue rated AA or better by S&P or Aa
          or better by Moody's, or (b) believed by the Board of
          Directors to be of comparable quality.

               Variable rate demand notes are unsecured
          instruments which provide for periodic adjustments in
          the interest rate.

          3.   Other debt instruments issued by corporations
          maturing within 397 days from the date of purchase and
          at such date are rated at least AA by S&P or Aa by
          Moody's.


          4.   Government Securities, as defined in the 1940 Act.
          Government Securities are:  (i) backed by the full
          faith and credit of the United States (e.g., U.S.
          Treasury obligations); (ii) supported by the
          discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to
          purchase the issuer's obligations (e.g., Fannie Mae
          obligations); (iii) the right of the issuer to borrow
          from the U.S. Government (e.g., obligations of Federal
          Home Loan Banks); and (iv) supported only by the credit
          of the issuer itself (e.g., obligations of the Student
          Loan Marketing Association).

          5.   Obligations (including certificates of deposit and
          bankers acceptances) of: (a) banks or savings and loan
          associations subject to regulation by the U.S.
          Government (including foreign branches of such banks),
          limited to institutions with a net worth of at least
          $100,000,000 or other banks and savings and loans if
          the principal amount of such certificates of deposit is
          insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,
          or (b) U.S. branches of foreign banks, limited to
          institutions having total assets of not less than $1
          billion or its equivalent.

               Certificates of deposit are certificates issued
          against funds deposited in a bank (including eligible
          foreign branches of U.S. banks), are for a definite
          period of time, earn a specified rate of return and
          normally are negotiable.

               Bankers' acceptances are short-term credit
          instruments used to finance the import, export,
          transfer or storage of goods.  They are termed
          "accepted" when a bank guarantees their payment at
          maturity.

          6.   Repurchase agreements involving the securities
          listed above.

               A repurchase agreement occurs when, at the time
          the Fund purchases an interest-bearing obligation, the
          seller (a bank or a broker-dealer) agrees to repurchase
          it on a specified date in the future at an agreed-upon
          price.  The repurchase price reflects an agreed-upon
          interest rate during the time the Fund's money is
          invested in the security.  The Fund's risk is the
          ability of the seller to pay the agreed-upon price on
          the delivery date.  In the opinion of the Adviser, the
          risk is minimal because the security purchased
          constitutes security for the repurchase obligation, and
          repurchase agreements can be considered as loans
          collateralized by the security purchased.  The Fund
          will determine the market value of the collateral on a
          daily basis and will require the seller to provide
          additional collateral if the market value of the
          securities falls below the repurchase price at any time
          during the term of the repurchase agreement.  However,
          the Fund may incur costs in disposing of the
          collateral, which would reduce the amount realized
          thereon.  If the seller seeks relief under the
          bankruptcy laws, the Fund could experience both delays
          in liquidating the underlying securities and losses,
          including:  (a) possible decline in the value of the
          underlying security during the period while the Fund
          seeks to enforce its rights thereto; (b) possible
          subnormal levels of income and lack of access to income
          during this period; and (c) expenses of enforcing its
          rights.  The Fund has a fundamental policy that it will
          not enter into repurchase agreements which will not
          mature within seven days if any such investment,
          together with all other assets held by the Fund which
          are not readily marketable, amounts to more than 10% of
          its total net assets.

     Investments in obligations of a foreign branch of a U.S.
bank and in U.S. branches of a foreign bank may subject the Fund
to additional investment risks.  These risks may include
international and political developments, foreign government
restrictions, foreign withholding taxes or possible seizure or
nationalization of foreign deposits.  In addition, foreign
branches of domestic banks and foreign banks are not necessarily
subject to the same regulatory requirements that apply to
domestic banks, such as reserve requirements, loan limitations,
examinations, accounting and record keeping.

     The Fund also may invest in the securities of real estate
investment trusts ("REITs") and other real estate-based
securities, including securities of companies whose assets
consist substantially of real property and interests therein,
listed on a national securities exchange or authorized for
quotation on the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotations System ("NASDAQ"), but subject to certain
investment limits.

     The Adviser uses its best judgment  in selecting
investments, taking into consideration interest rates, terms and
marketability of obligations as well as the capitalization,
earnings, liquidity and other indicators of the financial
condition of the issuer in arriving at investment decisions. Due
to fluctuations in the interest rates, the market value of the
securities in the  portfolio may vary during the period of the
shareholder's investment in the Fund.  To minimize the effect of
changing rates on the net asset value of its shares, the Fund
intends to keep the dollar weighted average maturity of its
holdings to 90 days or less.  See "Pricing of Fund Shares and Use
of Amortized Cost Method of Valuation."


                    INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

     The Fund has adopted the following restrictions, which are
matters of fundamental policy and cannot be changed without the
approval of the holders of a majority of its outstanding shares,
or, if less, 67% of the shares represented at a meeting of
shareholders at which 50% or more of the holders are represented
in person or by proxy:

          1.   The Fund will not purchase securities on margin,
          participate in a joint trading account, sell securities
          short, or act as an underwriter or distributor of
          securities other than its own capital stock.  The Fund
          will not lend money, except for:

                    (a)  the purchase of a portion of an issue of
               publicly distributed debt securities;

                    (b)  investment in repurchase agreements in
               an amount not to exceed 20% of the total net
               assets of the Fund; provided, however, that
               repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven
               days will not constitute more than 10% of the
               value of the total net assets; and

                    (c)  the purchase of a portion of bonds,
               debentures or other debt securities of types
               commonly distributed in private placements to
               financial institutions, such illiquid amount of
               which is not to exceed 10% of the value of total
               net assets of the Fund; provided, however, that
               all illiquid securities will not exceed 10% of the
               value of the Fund's total net assets.

          2.   The Fund may make bank borrowings but only for
          temporary or emergency purposes and then only in
          amounts not in excess of 5% of the lower of cost or
          market value of the Fund's total net assets.

          3.   The Fund will not pledge any of its assets.

          4.   Investments will not be made for the purpose of
          exercising control or management of any company.  The
          Fund will not purchase securities of any issuer if, as
          a result of such purchase, the Fund would hold more
          than 10% of the voting securities of such issuer.

          5.   The Fund may not purchase the securities of any
          one issuer, except securities issued or guaranteed by
          the United States, or its instrumentalities or
          agencies, if immediately after and as a result of such
          purchase the value of the holdings of the Fund in the
          securities of such issuer exceeds 5% of the value of
          the Fund's total assets.

          6.   Not more than 25% of the value of the Fund's total
          net assets will be concentrated in companies of any one
          industry or group of related industries.  This
          restriction does not apply to U.S. Government
          Securities or to obligations (including certificates of
          deposit and bankers acceptances) of banks or savings
          and loan associations subject to regulation by the U.S.
          Government.

          7.   The Fund will not acquire or retain any security
          issued by a company, if an officer or director of such
          company is an officer or director of the Fund, or is an
          officer, director, shareholder or other interested
          person of the Adviser.

          8.   The Fund may not purchase or sell real estate or
          interests in real estate, commodities or commodity
          futures.  The Fund may invest in the securities of
          REITs and other real estate-based securities (including
          securities of companies whose assets consist
          substantially of real property and interests therein)
          listed on a national securities exchange or authorized
          for quotation on NASDAQ , but not more than 10% in
          value of the Fund's total assets will be invested in
          REITs nor will more than 25% in value of the Fund's
          total assets be invested in the real estate industry in
          the aggregate.

     In addition to the foregoing restrictions, the Fund has
adopted the following restrictions which may be changed by the
Board of Directors of the Fund without shareholder approval.  Any
such change would be made only upon advance notice to
shareholders in the form of an Amended Statement of Additional
Information filed with the SEC.

          1.   The Fund will not invest in interests in oil, gas
          or other mineral exploration programs.

          2.   The Fund will not invest in puts, calls,
          straddles, spreads or any combination thereof.

          3.   The Fund will not invest in securities of other
          open-end management-type investment companies.

          4.   The Fund may not issue senior securities in
          violation of the 1940 Act.  The Fund may make
          borrowings but only for temporary or emergency purposes
          and then only in amounts not in excess of 5% of the
          lower of cost or market value of the Fund's total net
          assets, and the Fund may make borrowings from banks,
          provided that immediately after any such borrowing all
          borrowings of the Fund do not exceed one-third of the
          Fund's net assets.

     All percentage limitations apply on the date of investment
by the Fund.  As a result, if a percentage restriction is adhered
to at the time of investment, a later increase in percentage
resulting from a change in market value of the investment or the
total assets of the Fund will not constitute a violation of that
restriction.
   
                        INVESTMENT RISKS

     This section contains a summary description of the general
risks of investing in the Fund.  As with any mutual fund, there
can be no guarantee that the Fund will meet its goals or that the
Fund's performance will be positive over any period of time.

     Since money market funds are managed to maintain a $1.00 per
share price, money market funds, such as the Fund, should have
little risk of principal loss.  Although the Fund seeks to
preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is
possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. In addition, the
Fund's yield will vary; it is not fixed for a specific period
like the yield on a bank certificate of deposit.  There also is
no guarantee that the Fund's return will equal or exceed the rate
of inflation.

     CREDIT RISK.  There is a risk that any of the issuers of the
     securities held by the Fund may have its credit rating
     downgraded or will default (fail to make scheduled interest
     or principal payments), potentially reducing the Fund's
     income level and share price.

     INTEREST RATE OR MARKET RISK.  A sharp and unexpected rise
     in interest rates could result in a decline in the prices of
     fixed income securities in which the Fund invests.  As a
     result, the Fund's share price could drop below $1.00.

     FOREIGN INVESTMENT RISK. Investments in obligations of a
     foreign branch of a U.S. bank and U.S. branches of a foreign
     bank may subject the Fund to certain investment risks,
     including international and political developments, foreign
     government restrictions, foreign withholding taxes, possible
     seizure or nationalization of deposits, the establishment of
     exchange control regulations and the adoption of other
     governmental restrictions that might affect the payment of
     principal and interest on those securities.  In addition,
     foreign branches of domestic banks and foreign banks are not
     necessarily subject to the same regulatory requirements that
     apply to domestic banks, such as reserve requirements, loan
     limitations, examinations, accounting and record keeping.
     The Fund is subject to certain investment restrictions on
     foreign investing as described above.

     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  The Fund may buy securities with the
     understanding that the seller may buy them back with
     interest at a later date.  If the seller is unable to honor
     its commitment to repurchase the securities, the Fund could
     lose money.  The Fund is subject to certain investment
     restrictions on repurchase agreements as described above.

     ILLIQUID AND RESTRICTED SECURITIES.  From time to time, the
     Fund may purchase a portion of bonds, debentures or other
     debt securities in private placements, in amounts not to
     exceed 10% of the value of the total assets of the Fund.
     Investments may be illiquid because of the absence of an
     active trading market, making it difficult to value them or
     dispose of them properly at an acceptable price.  Restricted
     securities may have a contractual limit on resale or may
     require registration under federal securities laws before
     they can be sold publicly.  However, the Fund is subject to
     an overriding restriction that all illiquid securities held
     by the Fund may not exceed 10% of the value of the Fund's
     total net assets.  Difficulty in selling a security may
     result in a loss to the Fund or additional costs.

          AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED
     BY THE FDIC, THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD OR ANY OTHER AGENCY
     OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.  ALTHOUGH THE FUND TRYS TO MAINTAIN
     A $1.00 PER SHARE PRICE, IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOSE MONEY BY
     INVESTING IN THE FUND.

     While the Fund is subject to the risks as summarized above,
the Fund is subject to strict requirements relating to its
investments under federal law. The Fund must maintain high credit
quality in its portfolio, maintain a short average portfolio
maturity to reduce the effects of changes in interest rates on
the value of the Fund's securities and diversify the Fund's
investments among issuers so as to reduce the effects of a
default by any one issuer on the value of the Fund's shares.
    
                 THE FUND'S INVESTMENT ADVISER

     Nicholas Company, Inc., located at 700 North Water Street,
Suite 1010, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is the Fund's investment
adviser.  The Adviser furnishes the Fund with continuous
investment service and is responsible for overall management of
the Fund's business affairs, subject to supervision of the Fund's
Board of Directors.  The Adviser is the investment adviser to
approximately 25 institutions and individuals with substantial
investment portfolios and to five mutual funds which, like the
Fund, are sold without a sales charge.  The other mutual funds
for which the Adviser serves as investment adviser are Nicholas
Fund, Inc., Nicholas II, Inc., Nicholas Limited Edition, Inc.,
Nicholas Equity Income Fund, Inc., and Nicholas Income Fund,
Inc., with primary investment objectives and net assets as set
forth below.

</TABLE>
    
     The annual fee paid to the Adviser is paid monthly and is
based on the average net asset value of the Fund, as determined
by valuations made at the close of each business day of the
month.  The annual fee is three tenths of one percent (0.30 of
1%) of the average net asset value of the Fund.  Personnel of the
Adviser are primarily responsible for investment decisions
affecting the Fund's portfolio.  At December 31, 1998, total net
assets of the Fund were $160,187,297.

     Under an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Fund, the
Adviser, at its own expense and without reimbursement from the
Fund, furnishes the Fund with office space, office facilities,
executive officers and executive expenses (such as health
insurance premiums for executive officers).  The Adviser also
bears all sales and promotional expenses of the Fund, other than
expenses incurred in complying with laws regulating the issue or
sale of securities.  The Fund pays all of its operating expenses,
including, but not limited to, the costs of preparing and
printing post-effective amendments to its registration statements
required under the Securities Act and the 1940 Act and any
amendments thereto and of preparing and printing registration
statements in the various states, the printing and distribution
cost of prospectuses mailed to existing shareholders, the cost of
stock certificates, reports to shareholders, interest charges,
taxes and legal expenses.  Also included as "operating expenses"
which will be paid by the Fund are fees of directors who are not
interested persons of the Adviser or officers or employees of the
Fund, salaries of administrative and clerical personnel,
association membership dues, auditing, accounting and tax
consulting services, fees and expenses of any custodian or
trustees having custody of Fund assets, postage, charges and
expenses of dividend disbursing agents, registrars and stock
transfer agents, including the cost of keeping all necessary
shareholder records and accounts and handling any problems
related thereto, and certain other costs and costs related to the
aforementioned items.

     The Adviser has undertaken to reimburse the Fund to the
extent that the aggregate annual operating expenses, including
the investment advisory fee, but excluding interest, taxes,
brokerage commissions, litigation and extraordinary expenses
exceed the lowest (i.e., most restrictive) percentage of the
Fund's average net assets established by the laws of the states
in which the Fund's shares are registered for sale, as determined
by valuations made as of the close of each business day of the
year.  The Adviser also may in its discretion reimburse the Fund
for any operating expenses incurred by the Fund in excess of this
most restrictive percentage.  Such optional reimbursement by the
Adviser of operating expenses previously incurred by the Fund
will serve to temporarily enhance yield.  The Adviser has agreed
to reduce the management fee by any operating expenses (other
than the management fee) incurred by the Fund in excess of 1/2 of
1% of average daily net assets.  The Adviser shall reimburse the
Fund by offsetting against its monthly fee all expenses in excess
of these amounts as prorated on an annual basis.  Any optional
reimbursement will be made at a time determined by the Adviser.
During the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the Fund
paid the Adviser an aggregate of $436,618, $373,742 and $338,132,
respectively, in fees.  During none of the foregoing fiscal years
did the expenses borne by the Fund exceed the expense limitation
then in effect and the Adviser was not required to reimburse the
Fund for any additional expenses.

     The Investment Advisory Agreement is not assignable and may
be terminated by either party, without penalty, on 60 days
notice.  Otherwise, the Investment Advisory Agreement continues
in effect so long as it is approved annually by (i) the Board of
Directors or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of
the Fund and (ii) in either case, by the affirmative vote of a
majority of directors who are not parties to the Investment
Advisory Agreement or "interested persons" of the Adviser or of
the Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act,  cast in person at a
meeting called for the purpose of voting for such approval.

     Albert O. Nicholas is President and a Director of the Fund,
and Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of the
Adviser, and is a controlling person of the Adviser through his
ownership of 91% of the outstanding voting securities of the
Adviser.  Thomas J. Saeger, Executive Vice President and
Secretary of the Fund, is Executive Vice President and Assistant
Secretary of the Adviser.  David L. Johnson is Executive Vice
President of the Fund and Executive Vice President of the
Adviser.  He is a brother-in-law of Albert O. Nicholas.  David O.

                     PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

or of record 5% or more of the shares of the Fund as of December

                     PRICING OF FUND SHARES
         AND USE OF AMORTIZED COST METHOD OF VALUATION

     When you buy shares of the Fund, the price per share you pay
is the NET ASSET VALUE ("NAV") of a share of the Fund.  The NAV
of a share of the Fund is determined by dividing the total value
in U.S. dollars of the Fund's total net assets by the total
number of shares outstanding at that time.  THE NAV OF THE FUND'S
SHARES IS EXPECTED BY MANAGEMENT TO REMAIN CONSTANT AT $1.00 PER
SHARE.  Net assets of the Fund are determined by deducting the
liabilities of the Fund from total assets of the Fund.  The NAV
is determined as of the close of trading on the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") on each day the NYSE is open for unrestricted
trading and when the Federal Reserve Banks are open for business.

     Portfolio securities are valued on an amortized cost basis,
whereby a security is initially valued at its acquisition cost.
Thereafter, a constant straight-line amortization is assumed each
day regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates.

     Pursuant to Section 270.2a-7 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, the Board of Directors has established procedures
designed to stabilize the NAV per share at $1.00.  Under most
conditions, management believes this will be possible, but there
can be no assurance they can do so on a continuous basis.  In
connection with its use of the amortized cost method of valuation
and in order to hold itself out as a "money market" fund, the
Fund will comply with the applicable provisions of Section 270.2a-
7, and in particular, will comply with the following:  (i) the
Fund will maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity
appropriate to its objective of maintaining a stable NAV per
share and specifically will limit the dollar weighted average
portfolio maturity of the Fund to not more than 90 days and the
remaining maturity of each portfolio security to not more than
397 days (with certain exceptions permitted by the rules of the
SEC); (ii) the Fund will limit its portfolio investments to those
instruments its Board of Directors determines present minimal
credit risks, and are otherwise in accordance with the Fund's
investment objectives and restrictions; and (iii) the Fund will
adhere to the portfolio diversification requirements set forth in
Section 270.2a-7.  Calculations are done periodically to compare
the value of the Fund's portfolio at amortized cost versus
current market values.  In the event the per share NAV should
deviate from $1.00 by 1/2 of 1% or more, the Board of Directors
will promptly consider what action, if any, should be taken.

                    PURCHASE OF FUND SHARES

     MINIMUM INVESTMENTS.  The minimum initial purchase is $2,000
and the minimum for any subsequent purchase is $100, except in
the case of reinvestment of distributions or purchases through
the Automatic Investment Plan.  The Fund's Automatic Investment
Plan has a minimum monthly investment of $50.  Due to fixed
expenses incurred by the Fund in maintaining individual accounts,
the Fund reserves the right to redeem accounts that fall below
the $2,000 minimum investment required due to shareholder
redemption (but not solely due to a decrease in the NAV of the
Fund).  In order to exercise this right, the Fund will give
advance written notice of at least 30 days to the accounts below
such minimum.

     APPLICATION INFORMATION.  You may apply to purchase shares
of the Fund by submitting an applicationto Nicholas Money Market,
Inc., c/o Firstar Mutual Funds Services, LLC ("Firstar"), P.0.
Box 2944, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201-2944.    The Fund also has
available an Automatic Investment Plan for shareholders, whereby
you may invest $50 or more with the Fund at regular intervals.
Anyone interested should contact the Fund for additional
information.

     When you make a purchase, the price per share (WHICH
GENERALLY IS EXPECTED BY THE FUND TO REMAIN CONSTANT AT $1.00 PER
SHARE) will be the NAV per share next determined after the time
the Fund receives your application in proper order.  The NAV is
calculated once a day based on the methods described above.  The
determination of NAV for a particular day is applicable to all
applications received in proper order by the close of trading on
the NYSE on that day (usually 4:00 p.m., New York time).
Applications to purchase Fund shares received in proper order
AFTER the close of trading on the NYSE will be based on the NAV
as determined as of the close of trading on the NEXT day the NYSE
is open.

Generally, shares of the Fund may not be purchased on days when
the Federal Reserve Banks are closed.  Purchase of shares will be
made in full and fractional shares computed to three decimal
places.

     You should be aware that DEPOSIT in the U.S. mail or with
other independent delivery services, or receipt at Firstar Mutual
Fund Services LLC's ("Firstar") Post Office Box, of purchase
applications DOES NOT constitute receipt by Firstar or the Fund.
DO NOT MAIL LETTERS BY OVERNIGHT COURIER TO THE POST OFFICE BOX

STREET, MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN 53202.

and may only be accepted by the Fund or an authorized agent of
the Fund.  Applications will not be accepted unless they are
accompanied by payment in U.S. funds.  Payment should be made by
check drawn on a U.S. bank, savings and loan or credit union.
Checks are accepted subject to collection at full face value in
U.S. funds.  The custodian will charge a $20 fee against a

Fund, for any payment check returned to the custodian for
insufficient funds.  The Fund will not to accept applications

owner(s) of record on the first business day following the 60th
day of investment, net of the back-up withholding tax amount.

     WIRE PAYMENTS.  You also may purchase Fund shares via the
Federal Reserve wire system.  If a wire purchase is to be an
initial purchase, please call Firstar (414-276-0535 or 800-544-
6547) with the appropriate account information prior to sending
the wire.  Firstar will provide you with a confirmation  number
for the wire purchase which will ensure the prompt and accurate
handling of funds.  To purchase shares of the Fund by federal
wire transfer, instruct your bank to use the following
instructions:

     Wire To:        Firstar Bank Milwaukee, N.A.
                     ABA 075000022

     Credit:         Firstar Mutual Funds Services, LLC
                     Account 112-952-137

     Further Credit: Nicholas Money Market Fund, Inc.
                     (shareholder account number)
                     (shareholder registration)

     The Fund and its transfer agent are not responsible for the
consequences of delays resulting from the banking or Federal
Reserve wire system, or from incomplete wiring instructions.

     CERTIFICATES.  The Fund's transfer agent, Firstar, will
credit the shareholder's account with the number of shares
purchased.  Written confirmations are issued for all purchases of
Fund shares.  Certificates representing Fund shares purchased
will not be issued.

     THIRD PARTY PURCHASES - USE OF A PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY TO
PURCHASE FUND SHARES.  Shares of the Fund may be purchased
through certain broker-dealers, financial institutions or other
service providers ("Processing Intermediaries").  When shares of
the Fund are purchased this way, the Processing Intermediary,
rather than its customer, may be the shareholder of record.
Certain service providers may receive compensation from the Fund
for providing transfer agent-related services relating to the
accounts held in street name.  Processing Intermediaries may use
procedures and impose restrictions in addition to or different
from those applicable to shareholders who invest in the Fund
directly.  An investor intending to invest in the Fund through a
Processing Intermediary should read the program materials
provided by the Processing Intermediary in conjunction with this
Prospectus.

     Processing Intermediaries may charge fees or other charges
for the services they provide to their customers.  Such charges
may vary among Processing Intermediaries, but in all cases will
be retained by the Processing Intermediary and not remitted to
the Fund or the Adviser.

     Investors who do not wish to use the services of a
Processing Intermediary, or pay the fees that may be charged for
such services, may want to consider investing directly with the
Fund.  Direct purchase of shares of the Fund may be made without
a sales charge.

     The Fund also may enter into an arrangement with some
Processing Intermediaries authorizing them to process purchase
orders on behalf of the Fund on an expedited basis (an
"authorized agent").  Receipt of a purchase order by an
authorized agent will be deemed to be received by the Fund for
purposes of determining the NAV of Fund shares to be purchased.
For purchase orders placed through an authorized agent, a
shareholder will pay the Fund's NAV per share next computed after
the receipt by the authorized agent of such purchase order, plus
any applicable transaction charge imposed by the agent.


                   REDEMPTION OF FUND SHARES

     You may redeem Fund shares in whole or in part by any of the
methods described below.  All redemptions will be processed
immediately upon receipt and written confirmation will be issued
for all redemptions of Fund shares. The redemption price will be the Fund's
NAV (WHICH IS GENERALLY EXPECTED BY THE FUND TO REMAIN CONSTANT
AT $1.00 PER SHARE) next computed after the time of receipt by
Firstar (or by an authorized agent of the Fund) of a written
request in the proper order as described below, or pursuant to
proper telephone instructions as described below.

      REDEMPTION REQUESTS THAT CONTAIN RESTRICTIONS AS TO THE
TIME OR DATE REDEMPTIONS ARE TO BE EFFECTED WILL BE RETURNED AND
WILL NOT BE PROCESSED.

     WRITTEN REDEMPTIONS.  If you redeem in writing, you must
ensure that the redemption request is signed by each shareholder
in the exact manner as the Fund account is registered and
includes the redemption amount and the shareholder account
number.  If any portion of the shares to be redeemed represents
an investment made by personal or certified check, the Fund
reserves the right to hold a payment up to 15 days or until
satisfied that investments made by check have been collected, at
which time the redemption request will be processed and payment
made.  A shareholder who anticipates the need for immediate
access to their investment should purchase shares by wiring
Federal funds.

You may redeem by delivering an original signed written request
for redemption addressed to Nicholas Money Market Fund, Inc., c/o
FirstarMutual Funds Services, LLC, P.O. Box 2944, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin  53201-2944.  If the account registration is
individual, joint tenants, sole proprietorship, custodial
(Uniform Transfer to Minors Act), or general partners, the
written request must be signed exactly as the account is
registered.  If the account is owned jointly, all owners must
sign.

FACSIMILE TRANSMISSION OF REDEMPTION REQUESTS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

     The Fund may require additional supporting documents for
written redemptions made by corporations, executors,
administrators, trustees and guardians.  Specifically, if the
account is registered in the name of a corporation or
association, the written request must be accompanied by a
corporate resolution signed by the authorized person(s).  A
redemption request for accounts registered in the name of a legal
trust must have a copy of the title and signature page of the
trust agreement on file or must be accompanied by the trust
agreement and signed by the trustee(s).

     IF THERE IS DOUBT AS TO WHAT DOCUMENTS OR INSTRUCTIONS ARE
NECESSARY IN ORDER TO REDEEM SHARES IN WRITING, PLEASE WRITE OR
CALL FIRSTAR  (414-276-0535 OR 800-544-6547), PRIOR TO SUBMITTING
A WRITTEN REDEMPTION REQUEST.  A WRITTEN REDEMPTION REQUEST WILL
NOT BECOME EFFECTIVE UNTIL ALL DOCUMENTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED IN
PROPER ORDER BY FIRSTAR.

     Shareholders who have an individual retirement account
("IRA"), a master retirement plan or other retirement plan must
indicate on their written redemption requests whether or not to
withhold federal income tax.  Redemption requests lacking an
election not to have federal income tax withheld will be subject
to withholding.  Please consult your current Disclosure Statement
for any applicable fees.

     You should be aware that DEPOSIT in the mail or with other
independent delivery services or receipt at Firstar's Post Office
Box of redemption requests DOES NOT constitute receipt by Firstar
or the Fund.  DO NOT mail letters by overnight courier to the
Post Office Box address.  OVERNIGHT COURIER DELIVERY SHOULD BE
SENT TO THE FIRSTAR MUTUAL FUNDS SERVICES, LLC, THIRD FLOOR, 615
EAST MICHIGAN STREET, MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN 53202.

     TELEPHONE REDEMPTIONS.  Telephone redemption is
automatically extended to all accounts in the Fund unless this
privilege is declined in writing.  This option does not apply to
IRA accounts and master retirement plans for which Firstar Bank
Milwaukee, N.A. ("Firstar Bank")acts as custodian.  Telephone
redemptions can only be made by calling Firstar at 800-544-6547
or 414-276-0535.  In addition to the account registration, you
will be required to provide the account number and social
security number.  Telephone calls will be recorded.

     Telephone redemption requests must be received prior to the
closing of the NYSE (usually 4:00 p.m., New York time) to receive
that day's NAV.  There will be no exceptions due to market
activity.  During periods of substantial economic or market
changes, telephone transactions may be difficult to implement.
If a shareholder is unable to contact Firstar by telephone,
shares also may be redeemed by delivering the redemption request
in person or by mail.  The maximum telephone redemption is
$25,000 per account/per business day.  The maximum telephone
redemption for related accounts is $100,000 per business day.
The minimum telephone redemption is $500 except when redeeming an
account in full.

     The Fund reserves the right to refuse a telephone redemption
if it is believed advisable to do so.  Procedures for redeeming
Fund shares by telephone may be modified or terminated at any
time by the Fund or Firstar.  Neither the Fund nor Firstar will
be responsible for the authenticity of redemption instructions
received by telephone which they reasonably believe to be
genuine, even if such instructions prove to be unauthorized or
fraudulent.  The Fund and Firstar will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions received by telephone are
genuine, and if they do not, they may be liable for losses due to
unauthorized or fraudulent instructions.

     EFFECT OF REDEMPTION.  The Fund ordinarily will make payment
for redeemed shares within seven days after receipt of a request
in proper order, except as provided by the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Redemption proceeds to be
wired also ordinarily will be wired within seven days after
receipt of the request, and normally will be wired on the next
business day after a NAV is determined.  The Fund reserves the
right to hold payment up to 15 days or until satisfied that
investments made by check have been collected.

     You may instruct Firstar to mail the proceeds to the address
of record or to directly mail the proceeds to a pre-authorized
bank account.  The proceeds also may be wired to a pre-authorized
account at a commercial bank in the United States.  Firstar
charges a wire redemption fee of $12.00.  Please contact the Fund
for the appropriate form if you are interested in setting your
account up with wiring instructions.
     Although not anticipated, it is possible that conditions may
arise in the future which would, in the opinion of the Fund's
Adviser or Board of Directors, make it undesirable for the Fund
to pay for all redemptions in cash.  In such cases, the Board may
authorize payment to be made in portfolio securities or other
property of the Fund.  However, the Fund has obligated itself
under the 1940 Act to redeem for cash all shares presented for
redemption by any one shareholder up to $250,000 (or 1% of the
Fund's net assets if that is less) in any 90-day period.
Securities delivered in payment of redemptions would be valued at
the same value assigned to them in computing the net asset value
per share.  Shareholders receiving such securities would incur
brokerage costs when these securities are sold.

     SIGNATURE GUARANTEES.  A signature guarantee of each owner
is required to redeem shares in the following situations, for all
size transactions:

          *    if you change the ownership on your account

          *    when you want the redemption proceeds send to a
               different address than is registered on the account

          *    if the proceeds are to be made payable to someone
               other than the account owner(s)

          *    any redemption transmitted by federal wire
               transfer to your bank not previously set up with the
               Fund

          *    if a change of address request has been received
               by the Fund or Firstar within 15 days of a redemption
               request

     In addition, signature guarantees will be required for all
redemptions of $100,000 or more from any shareholder account in
the Nicholas Family of Funds.  A redemption will not be processed
until the signature guarantee, if required, is received in proper
form.  A notary public is not an acceptable guarantor.

     THIRD PARTY REDEMPTIONS - USE OF A PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY
TO REDEEM FUND SHARES.  As with the purchase of Fund shares,
shares of the Fund may be sold through certain broker-dealers,
financial institutions and other service providers ("Processing
Intermediaries").  Certain service providers may receive
compensation from the Fund for providing transfer agent-related
services relating to the accounts held in street name.  An
investor intending to redeem Fund shares through his or her
Processing Intermediary should read the program materials
provided by the Processing Intermediary and follow the
instructions and procedures outlined therein.

     Processing Intermediaries may charge fees or other charges
for the services they provide to their customers.  Such charges
vary among Processing Intermediaries, but in all cases will be
retained by the Processing Intermediary and not remitted to the
Fund or the Adviser.

     Investors who do not wish to use the services of a
Processing Intermediary, or pay the fees that may be charged for
such services, may want to consider investing directly with the
Fund.  IF YOU HOLD FUND SHARES THROUGH A PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY,
YOU MUST REDEEM YOUR SHARES THROUGH SUCH PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY.
IN SUCH EVENT, YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE PROCESSING INTERMEDIARY FOR
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO REDEEM.  If an investor has originally
invested directly with the Fund, direct sale of Fund shares
through the Fund (and not the Processing Intermediary) may be
made without a redemption charge.

     The Fund also may enter into an arrangement with some
Processing Intermediaries authorizing them to process redemption
requests on behalf of the Fund on an expedited basis (an
"authorized agent").  Receipt of a redemption request by an
authorized agent will be deemed to be received by the Fund for
purposes of determining the NAV of Fund shares to be redeemed.
For redemption orders placed through an authorized agent, a
shareholder will receive redemption proceeds which reflect NAV
per share next computed after the receipt by the authorized agent
of the redemption order, less any redemption fees imposed by the
agent.
    
                     EXCHANGE BETWEEN FUNDS

     You may exchange Fund shares for shares of other mutual
funds for which Nicholas Company, Inc. serves as the investment
adviser.  Nicholas Company, Inc. also is adviser to the following

       (1)         Shareholders are reminded, however, that
       Nicholas Limited Edition, Inc. is restricted in size to
       ten million shares (without taking into account shares
       outstanding as a result of capital gain and dividend
       distributions), and that the exchange privilege into that
       mutual fund may be terminated or modified at any time or
       times when that maximum is reached.

     If you choose to exercise the exchange privilege, the shares
will be exchanged at their next determined NAV.  Shareholders
interested in exercising the exchange privilege must obtain an
authorization form and the appropriate prospectus from Nicholas
Company, Inc.  When an exchange into the Fund would involve
investment of the exchanged amount on a day when the New York
Stock Exchange is open for trading but the Federal Reserve Banks
are closed, shares of the fund will be redeemed on the day upon
which the exchange request is received; however, issuance of Fund
shares may be delayed an additional business day in order to avoid
the dilutive effect on return (i.e., reduction in net investment
income per share) which would result from issuance of such shares
on a day when the exchanged amount cannot be invested.  In such a
case, the exchanged amount would be uninvested for this one day
period.  Shares of the Fund will not be redeemed on any day when
the Federal Reserve Banks are closed.  Shareholders interested in
exercising the exchange privilege must obtain the appropriate
prospectus from Nicholas Company, Inc.

     This exchange privilege is available only in states where
shares of the fund being acquired may legally be sold, and the
privilege may be terminated or modified only upon 60 days' advance
notice to shareholders; however, procedures for exchanging Fund
shares by telephone may be modified or terminated at any time by
the Fund or Firstar.  

     Exchange of shares can be accomplished in the following ways:

     Exchange by Mail.  You may exchange shares of the Fund for
shares of other available Nicholas mutual funds directly through
Nicholas Company, Inc. without cost by written request.  If you
are interested in exercising the exchange by mail privilege, you
may obtain the appropriate prospectus from Nicholas Company, Inc.
Signatures required are the same as previously explained under
"Redemption of Fund Shares."

     Exchange by Telephone.  You may exchange by telephone among
all funds for which the Nicholas Company, Inc. serves as
investment adviser. Only exchanges of $500 or more may be executed
using the telephone exchange privilege.  Firstar charges a $5.00
fee for each telephone exchange.  In an effort to avoid the risks
often associated with large market timers, the maximum telephone
exchange per account per day is set at $100,000, with a maximum of
$l,000,000 per day for related accounts.  Four telephone exchanges
per account during any twelve month period will be allowed.

     Procedures for exchanging Fund shares by telephone may be
modified or terminated at any time by the Fund or Firstar.
Neither the Fund nor Firstar will be responsible for the
authenticity of exchange instructions received by telephone.
Telephone exchanges can only be made by calling Firstar at 414-276-
0535 or 800-544-6547.  You will be required to provide pertinent
information regarding your account.  Calls will be recorded.

   
                     TRANSFER OF FUND SHARES

     You may transfer Fund shares in instances such as the death
of a shareholder, change of account registration, change of
account ownership and in cases where shares of the Fund are
transferred as a gift.  Documents and instructions necessary to
transfer capital stock can be obtained by writing or calling
Firstar (414-276-0535 or 800-544-6547) or Nicholas Company, Inc.
(414-272-6133 or 800-227-5987) prior to submitting any transfer
requests.
    

                 DIVIDENDS AND FEDERAL TAX STATUS

     The Fund intends to continue to qualify annually as a
"regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 and intends to take all other action required to ensure that
little or no federal income or excise taxes will be payable by the
Fund.  As a result, the Fund generally will seek to distribute
annually to its shareholders substantially all of its net
investment income and net realized capital gain (after utilization
of any available capital loss carryovers).

     The net investment income increased or reduced by realized
gains or losses, if any, for each day is declared as a dividend to
shareholders of record.  Shares purchased will begin earning
dividends on the business day following the day the purchase order
is confirmed.  Shares redeemed will earn dividends through the
date of the redemption order.  If you request in writing that your
dividends be paid in cash, the Fund will issue a check within five
business days of the reinvestment date.  If all of your shares are
redeemed during a month, dividends credited to your account from
the beginning of the dividend period through the time of
redemption will be paid with the redemption proceeds.

     A statement of all calendar year-to-date transactions,
including shares accumulated from dividends and capital gains
distributions, is mailed to each shareholder quarterly.
Information as to each shareholder's tax status is given annually.

     For federal income tax purposes, distributions from the Fund,
whether received in cash or invested in additional shares of the
Fund, will be taxable to the Fund's shareholders, except those
shareholders who are not subject to tax on their income.
Distributions paid from the Fund's net investment income are
taxable to shareholders as ordinary income.  The Fund does not
intend to generate capital gains. Because the investment income of
the Fund will be derived from interest rather than dividends, no
portion of such dividends will qualify for the dividends received
deduction for corporations.

     Under federal law, some shareholders may be subject to a 31%
withholding ("backup withholding") on reportable dividends,
capital gain distributions (if any) and redemption payments.
Generally, shareholders subject to backup withholding will be
those (i) for whom a taxpayer identification number is not on file
with the Fund or who, to the Fund's knowledge, have furnished an
incorrect number; or (ii) who have failed to declare or
underreported certain income on their federal returns.  When
establishing an account, an investor must certify under penalties
of perjury that the taxpayer identification number supplied to the
Fund is correct and that he or she is not subject to withholding.

     The foregoing tax discussion relates solely to U.S. federal
income taxes and is not intended to be a complete discussion of
all federal income tax consequences.  Shareholders should consult
with a tax adviser concerning the application of federal, state
and local taxes to an investment in the Fund.
   
    
                    DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
   
     Unless a shareholder elects to accept cash in lieu of shares,
all dividends and capital gains distributions automatically are
reinvested in shares through the Dividend Reinvestment Plan.  A
shareholder may elect to accept cash on an application to purchase
shares or by separate written notification.  Unless otherwise
requested, dividends will be reinvested automatically in
additional Fund shares on the last business day of each month.  If
the application of such distributions to the purchase of
additional shares of the Fund would result in the issuance of
fractional shares, the Fund may, at its option, either issue
fractional shares (computed to three decimal places) or pay to the
shareholder cash equal to the value of the fractional share on the
dividend or distribution payment date.  Shareholders will be
advised of the number of shares purchased and the price following
each reinvestment.  As in the case of normal purchases, stock
certificates are not issued unless requested.  In no instance will
a certificate be issued for a fraction of a share.

     Shareholders may withdraw from or thereafter elect to
participate in the Dividend Reinvestment Plan at any time by
giving written or telephonic notice to the Fund.  An election must
be received by Firstar prior to the dividend record date of any
particular distribution for the election to be effective for that
distribution.  If an election to withdraw from or participate in
the Dividend Reinvestment Plan is received between a dividend
record date and payment date, it shall become effective on the day
following the payment date.  The Fund may modify or terminate the
Dividend Reinvestment Plan at any time on 30 days' written notice
to participants.

                    SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN

     Shareholders who have purchased or currently own Fund shares
worth $10,000 or more at the current market value may open a
Systematic Withdrawal Plan ("Plan") and receive monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual or annual checks for any designated amount.
Firstar reinvests all income and capital gain dividends in shares
of the Fund.  Shareholders may add shares to, withdraw shares
from, or terminate the Plan, at any time.  Each withdrawal may be
a taxable event to the shareholder.  Liquidation of shares in
excess of distributions may deplete or possibly use up the initial
investment, particularly in the event of a market decline, and
withdrawals cannot be considered a yield or income on the
investment.  In addition to termination of the Plan by the Fund or
shareholders, the Plan may be terminated by Firstar upon written
notice mailed to the shareholders.  Please contact Nicholas
Company, Inc. for copies of the Plan documents.

                  INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

     Individuals may be able to establish a traditional IRA, a
Roth IRA and/or an Education IRA.  The Fund offers prototype IRA
plans for adoption by individuals who qualify.  A description of
applicable service fees and application forms are available upon
request from the Fund.  The IRA documents also contain a
Disclosure Statement which the IRS requires to be furnished to
individuals who are considering adopting an IRA.  It is important
you obtain up-to-date information from the Fund before opening an
IRA.

     Individuals who receive compensation, including earnings from
self-employment, may be entitled to establish and make
contributors to a traditional IRA.  Taxation of the income and
gains paid to a traditional IRA by the Fund is deferred until
distribution from the IRA.

     Contributions to a Roth IRA are not currently deductible, the
amounts within the accounts accumulate tax-free and qualified
distributions will not be included in a shareholder's taxable
income.  The contribution limit is $2,000 annually ($4,000 for
joint returns) in aggregate with contributions to traditional
IRAs.  Certain income phaseouts apply.

     Like the Roth IRA, contributions to an Education IRA are non-
deductible, but the investment earnings accumulate tax-free, and
distributions used for higher education expenses are not taxable.
Contribution limits are $500 per account and certain income
phaseouts apply.

     As long as the aggregate IRA contributions meet the Fund's
minimum investment requirement of $2,000, the Fund will accept any
allocation of such contribution between spousal, deductible and
non-deductible accounts.  The acceptability of this calculation is
the sole responsibility of the shareholder.  For this reason, it
is advisable for taxpayers to consult with their personal tax
adviser to determine the deductibility of their IRA contributions.

     Because a retirement program involves commitments covering
future years, it is important that the investment objectives of
the Fund be consistent with the participant's retirement
objectives.  Premature withdrawals from a retirement plan may
result in adverse tax consequences.  See "Purchase of Fund Shares"
and "Redemption of Fund Shares."  Consultation with a tax adviser
regarding the tax consequences is recommended.

                      MASTER RETIREMENT PLAN

     The Fund has available a master retirement plan (formerly
called a "Keogh" plan) for self-employed individuals.  Any person
seeking additional information or wishing to participate in the
plan may contact the Fund.  Consultation with a tax adviser
regarding the tax consequences of the plan is recommended.
    
                            BROKERAGE

     The Adviser is responsible for decisions to buy and sell
securities for the Fund and for the placement of the Fund's
investment business and the negotiations of the commissions to be
paid on such transactions.  The Adviser selects a broker or dealer
for the execution of a portfolio transaction on the basis that
such broker or dealer will execute the order as promptly and
efficiently as possible subject to the overriding policy of the
Fund.  This policy is to obtain the best market price and
reasonable execution for all its transactions, giving due
consideration to such factors as reliability of execution and the
value of research, statistical and price quotation services
provided by such broker or dealer.  The research services provided
by brokers consist of recommendations to purchase or sell specific
securities, the rendering of advice regarding events involving
specific issuers of securities and events and current conditions
in specific industries, and the rendering of advice regarding
general economic conditions affecting the stock market and the
U.S. economy.

     The Adviser, who decides to buy and sell securities, selects
a broker or dealer for the execution of a portfolio transaction on
the basis of the best security price available and on the basis
that such broker or dealer will execute the order as promptly and
efficiently as possible.

     The Fund has not paid any brokerage commissions since its
inception (July 1, 1988).  There are no brokers who would be
considered affiliates of the Fund or the Adviser.
   
    
     The Adviser may effect portfolio transactions with brokers or
dealers who recommend the purchase of the Fund's shares.  The
Adviser may not allocate brokerage on the basis of recommendations
to purchase shares of the Fund.


   
                         PERFORMANCE DATA

     The Fund's standard yield quotations, which may appear in
advertising and sales material, is calculated according to the
methods prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Under these methods, the current yield is based on a seven day
period and computed by dividing the net investment income per
share by the price per share during the period (expected to remain
constant at $1.00) to arrive at a "base period return," and the
result is divided by seven and multiplied by 365 carried out to
the nearest 1/100 of 1%.  Net investment income per share includes
accrued interest on the Fund's investments, plus or minus purchase
discount or premiums less accrued expenses.  Excluded from the
calculations are realized gains and losses on the sale of
securities and unrealized appreciations and depreciations on the
Fund's current portfolio.  The Fund's effective yield which also
may appear in advertisements and sales material is determined by
taking the "base period return" and calculating the effect of
compounding.

The following formulas are used:

     Standard Current Yield = Net Investment Income Per Share X 365
                              -------------------------------   ---
                                      Price Per Share            7

                                              365
                                              ---
   Effective Yield = [(Base Period Return + 1) 7 ] -  1
    
                        CAPITAL STRUCTURE

     Nicholas Money Market Fund, Inc. is authorized to issue
3,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share.
Each full share has one vote and all shares participate equally in
dividends and other distributions by the Fund and in the residual
assets of the Fund in the event of liquidation.  There are no
conversion or sinking fund provisions applicable to shares, and
holders have no preemptive rights and may not cumulate their votes
in the election of directors.  Shares are redeemable and are
transferable.  Fractional shares entitle the holder to the same
rights as whole shares.

                         STOCK CERTIFICATES

     The Fund will not issue certificates evidencing shares
purchased. Since certificates are not issued, the shareholder's
account will be credited with the number of shares purchased.
Written confirmations are issued for all purchases of shares.

                          ANNUAL MEETING

     Under the laws of the state of Maryland, registered
investment companies, such as the Fund, may operate without an
annual meeting of shareholders under specified circumstances if an
annual meeting is not required by the 1940 Act.  The Fund has
adopted the appropriate provisions in its Articles of
Incorporation and will not hold annual meetings of shareholders
unless otherwise required to do so.


     In the event the Fund is not required to hold annual meetings
of shareholders to elect Directors, the Board of Directors of the
Fund will promptly call a meeting of shareholders of the Fund for
the purpose of voting upon the question of removal of any Director
when requested in writing to do so by the record holders of not
less than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the
Fund.  The affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding
shares, cast in person or by proxy at a meeting called for such
purpose, is required to remove a Director of the Fund.  The Fund
will assist shareholders in communicating with each other for this
purpose pursuant to the requirements of Section 16(c) of the 1940
Act.

                       SHAREHOLDER REPORTS

     Shareholders will be provided at least semiannually with a
report or a current prospectus showing the Fund's portfolio and
other information.  After the close of the Fund's fiscal year,
which ends December 31, an annual report or current prospectus
containing financial statements audited by the Fund's independent
public accountants, Arthur Andersen LLP, will be sent to
shareholders.
   
                         YEAR 2000 ISSUES

     The "Year 2000" issue presents a significant technological
challenge for the securities industry.  Due to the limited memory
and the high cost of storage space associated with early computer
equipment, the century was implied rather than actually stored.
As a result, many computer systems are unable to interpret dates
beyond 1999.  Software and hardware which is not designed to work
across centuries may potentially malfunction on January 1, 2000.
Because dates are part of every securities transaction, accurate
date calculations are critical.

     The Fund has focused on the Year 2000 computer conversion
issue and management believes that there should be a smooth
transition on the part of suppliers of services to the Fund.  The
Fund's custodian bank and transfer agent has reported that the
necessary conversion process is in progress, and it appears to
have dedicated the appropriate level of resources to solve the
problem.

     The Adviser has identified and is taking steps it believes
are reasonably designed to resolve potential problems and address
the Year 2000 issue, although there can be no assurances that such
steps will be sufficient.  The Adviser, which performs the Fund's
internal accounting and pricing functions, is in the process of re-
engineering its hardware to handle the century date, and has
identified and is taking steps to resolve potential software
problems.  Some systems are currently compliant.  Internal testing
is ongoing, and the Fund expects that all systems will have been
converted by mid-1999.

     In addition, there can be no assurances that the Year 2000
issue will not have an adverse effect on issuers whose securities
are held by the Fund or on global markets or economies generally.
    
                   CUSTODIAN AND TRANSFER AGENT

     Firstar Bank acts as the Custodian of the Fund.  Firstar, 615
East Michigan Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202, acts as Transfer
Agent and Dividend Disbursing Agent of the Fund.  As Custodian,
Firstar Bankholds all securities and cash of the Fund, delivers
and receives payment for securities sold, receives and pays for
securities purchased, collects income from investments and
performs other duties, all as directed by officers of the Fund.
Firstar Bank and Firstar do not exercise any supervisory function
over the management of the Fund, the purchase and sale of
securities or the payment of distributions to shareholders.

            INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS AND LEGAL COUNSEL

     Arthur Andersen LLP, 100 East Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin 53202, has been selected as the independent accountants
for the Fund.  The selection of the Fund's independent public
accountants is not subject to annual ratification by the Fund's
shareholders unless otherwise required by the 1940 Act.  Michael
Best & Friedrich LLP, 100 East Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin 53202, has passed on the legality of the shares of
Common Stock of the Fund being offered.

                      FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     The schedule of investments, financial statements and notes
thereto and the Report of Independent Public Accountants contained
in the Annual Report of the Fund for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1998, which have been filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 30d-1
of the 1940 Act, are incorporated herein by reference.  You may

      The  Registrant is not under common control with any  other
person.  The Registrant, Nicholas Fund, Inc., Nicholas II,  Inc.,
Nicholas  Income Fund, Inc., Nicholas Limited Edition,  Inc.  and
Nicholas  Equity  Income  Fund, Inc. share  a  common  investment

ITEM 25.  INDEMNIFICATION

      Article  VII,  Section 7 of the By-Laws of  the  Registrant
provides  for  the indemnification of its officers and  directors
against  liabilities incurred in such capacities  to  the  extent
described  therein,  subject to the provisions  of  the  Maryland
General  Business Corporation Law; such Section 7 is incorporated
herein by reference to the By-Laws of the Registrant filed as  an
Exhibit  to the initial Registration Statement declared effective
on  July  1,  1988.   In addition, Registrant maintains  a  joint

ITEM 30.  UNDERTAKINGS

      The Registrant's By-Laws provide that it will indemnify its
officers  and directors for liabilities incurred by them  in  any
proceeding arising by reason of the fact that any such person was
or  is  a  director  or  officer of the Registrant.   Insofar  as
indemnification  for  liability arising  under  the  Act  may  be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons  of  the
Registrant   under  the  Securities  Act  of  1933  ("Act"),   or
otherwise,  the Registrant has been advised that, in the  opinion
of  the  Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification
is  against  public  policy as expressed  in  the  Act  and  may,
therefore,  be  unenforceable.  In the event  that  a  claim  for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the  payment
by  the  Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by  a  director,
officer of controlling person of the Registrant in the successful
defense  of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted  by  such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection  with  the
securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless  in  the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent,  submit  to  a court of appropriate  jurisdiction  the
question  whether  such indemnification by it is  against  public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the  final
adjudication of such issue.

      The Registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to  be
delivered  with  the  Prospectus, to  each  person  to  whom  the
Prospectus  is  sent  or  given,  the  latest  Annual  Report  to
Shareholders which is incorporated by reference in the Prospectus
and  furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements  of  Rule
14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended; and, where interim financial information required to  be
presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X is not set forth in  the
Prospectus,  to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each  person
to  whom  the  Prospectus is sent or given, the latest  Quarterly
Report  which  is incorporated by reference in the Prospectus  to
provide such interim financial information.

                           SIGNATURES

      Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of  1933
and   the  Investment  Company  Act  of  1940,  as  amended,  the
Registrant,  Nicholas  Money Market  Fund,  Inc.,  a  corporation
organized  and existing under the laws of the State of  Maryland,
hereby  certifies  that  it meets all  of  the  requirements  for
effectiveness  of  this  Amendment to its Registration  Statement
pursuant  to  Rule 485(a) under the Securities Act  of  1933,  as
amended,  and has duly caused this Registration Statement  to  be
signed   on  its  behalf  by  the  undersigned,  thereunto   duly
authorized, on the ____ day of February, 1999.
