lowing the depression the pendulum
swung far IN the other direction. The
reaction was too pronounced and spec

is now being taken and at last the
commercial interests OF the country
can be said to have returned to normal

caused lessened consumption but the

and the labor is employed at good
wages.

actively to consider the names Of men

conversation ensued:

And all the herd-bells called to me

Ever we stayed to pull
A white little rose, and a red little
rose,
And lock Of silver wool
Nobody heeded-none, none:
And then True Love came by
