Red.headed BOYS and Girls.

English scientists have been collect.
ing statistics regarding the aptitude
of school children. Among the inter-
esting results of their observations are
facts which show a relation between
color of the skin and hair and mental
proficiency, They say that the au-
burn-haired boys are generally at the
head of their recitation classes, and
that blond girls are the best at learn
ing
The auburn and blond girls come
out best In arithmetic. but are not
good at composition. Darkhaired
children of both sexes seem to have
better imaginative qualities than the
fair ones. and have much better style
in composition. The dark boys behave
better than the fair, and are more SEN
sitive to praise or blame. Probably
the reason is that the auburn and
blond children, being of Flemish ORR
gin, are more phlegmatic than the
dark ones.

LARGE LOANS QUICKLY MADE.

Great Sums Often Raised by Wall
Street Banks at Hours Notice.
An interesting question often ask
ed in Wall street concerns the
amount of capital that large bank
could raise at an hours notice. That
is, how much accommodation could
a bank extend customer unexpect-
eddy confronted with pressing need,
or for the purpose Of financing a
great deal. A banker of interna-
tional experience is authority for the
statement that Wall streets facili-
ties in this regard are superior to
London's. in that large undertake
ing could be financed here with much
greater dispatch than on the other
side.
Said an officer of one of Wall
streets most important banks: ut
Is no trouble at all, nowadays to
raise 100000 or $6,O00,000 within
an hour l have seen it done too
often to think for a moment that it
would tax seriously large banks
resources. Five times that sum, say
$25 1000, 900, can be raised at twenty
four hours notice. 1t has been done.
OF course, no one bank could do It,
but the great Wall street institutions
are linked together in such a way as
to provide almost unlimited re-
sources for the financing of any safe
dc", The large banks think little OF
$1,OO0,OOO or 100000 loans these
days, whereas in former years they
attracted general attention, for such
large amounts were released only
after considerable negotiations. But
that has all changed now."-New
