Scale with a Break

Hi All:

I am doing a bar chart that has individual data points and then a
cumulative. The data looks close to this

A = 10
B= 150
C= 120
D=.....

Total = 1000

So when I put all of them together the low values really get squished. I was
wondering if there is a way to show a scale on the axis for say 0- 200 and
then a break like two squiggly lines (~) on y axis and start scale at say
900. or even if I could do two scales.
