A nostalgic poem where a narrator recalls Maggie Gray a child he helps after her plight. The speaker notes her blue eye and December setting as she speaks of a distant mother and angelic guardian prayers. The tale ends with a farewell as he releases her from his care.
Two cousins Ben and Joe Weston start in business with similar capital. Joe eschews advertising while Ben spends heavily. Joe borrows, splurges on furniture, and fails. Ben advertises prudently and thrives, eventually inviting Joe into partnership. A moral on advertising’s power and risk appears in their rise and fall.
