 Both of the young women pleaded guilty. They told the court they had the money, and the wearing apparel they were willing to pay for. This was appraised at $40. The costs in each case was S4i.I4. The total pa q | in Putnam Go satisfy the law was therefore something over S40O. The fact that the pair gave up SO easily is evidence that their illegal trade is a lucrative one.
