financial topics, holds the theory that
commercial panics are largely mental
phenomena, and that they can be allayed
by remedies addressed to the imagination,
that is to say, by plentiful supply of

that panics occur in London every ten
years with almost perfect regularity.

Boston received one morning request
from the judge that he would come up to
the courtroom. He complied directly
and found there group of seven little
girls, ragged, dirty and forlorn beyond
even what he was accustomed to see. The
judge pointed to them and said:

prompt reply.
"All! What in the world can you do
with them all?"

in appearance than all the rest, and asked
again:

"I'll make woman of her." Mr.. T -
repeated, firmly and hopefully.
He took them all home. They were
washed and dressed, and provided with a
good supper and beds. The next morning
they went into the schoolroom with the
rest of the children. Mary was the name
of the little girl whose chance for better
things the Judge thought was small.
