A recent issue of the Danvers, Mass.
Mirror, contains an interesting account of
the exercises by the graduating class of the
training school for nurses, connected with
DanverS Lunatic Hospital, the institution
with which the brothers DR. Henry M. and
Or. Milo p. Jewett were so long associated.
The article gives large praise to Mrs.
Charles II. Dudley, who has charge of the
nurses at that institution, for her thorough
instruction, and mentions that the gradu-
ates presented her with valuable token of
their regard. The article is too long and
too technical to insert, bat the fact that Mrs
Dudley, although not a native of Newbury,
spent her girlhOod here is of interest Her
maiden name was Fanny X. Powers, and her
parents lived in the town house neighbor-
hood for eight or ten years, but now live at
Littleton, n. III. There were several very
bright children in that family, most of
whom died young. Thomas G. Powers, her
brother, was steward of the lunatic hospital
at Northampton where he died a year ago
last wintor, and younger sister is a sue
cessful teacher at Littleton.
Mrs. Dudley began her work among the
insane in 1872, as an attendant at the
Northampton Asylum and has steadily
risen to a position requiring the greatest
tact, executive capacity, and thorough ac-
quaintance with everything connected with
the treatment of the sick and insane. Of
the latter she has had the personal over
sight of several thousands, and is regarded
as authority in the treatment of this I'M
fortunate class.
1t is pleasant to learn that any of the
children of Newbury have won success in
position where such success can never be
the result of an accident, but is only won
by hard work, and personal fitness.

He was strenuous opponent of the bank
bill schemes proposed so thiCkly in the ear
ly years of the CENTURY, though he did fin.
ally in 1906, assent to the compromise for
the establishment of the Vermont state
Bank. Some of the arguments of his re-
ports read interestingly now. Banking
operations" he wrote, ARE vicious sub
stitute for that industry and economy;
which constitute the best portion of our
means of livelihood" Credit is less liable
than money to be miSmprOved, and while
the mismproyement of money merely di-
minishes property, that of credit creates
debt and when it is employed to discharge
one debt by mourning another, nothing can
commonly be gained. Sudden changes in
the quantity of circulating medium are not
less fatal to prosperity than all such changes
in the atmosphere to the comfort and health
of mankind. They operate powerfully, to
Shift property from hand to hand without
at all augmentng the general wealth OF
country; banking establishments. to say the
least, possess in a very high degree, the very
dangerous power of producing such changes
in the circulation of the peCunary medium
of commerce" The tendency of bank
bills would be to ''palsy the vigCr of indus
try and to stupefy the vigilance of economy"
