Follies of Investment.

The World’s Work sets forth some of the- absurdities that people for the most part intelligent will commit when they have money to invest If a man is sick, he goes to a doctor; if in a row with his neighbors, he goes to a lawyer; if in spiritual trouble, he consults a minister or priest; if in business straits he calls upon the banker. If, however, he has a problem of investment on his bands, he calls upon merchants, lawyers, bankers, ministers and miscellaneous people quite indiscriminately—and with about the same practical results that he would get if he followed the some method in sickness, in legal trouble, in business trouble or in spiritual woe.
