"Why believe it?" asked Kennedy quietly. "Why believe it?" echoed McCormick. "Stacey has found shortages in his books due to the operation of her departments.

Such was the penalty which the great man paid for scorning all new knowledge as idéalogie. The principles set forth by Quesnay, Turgot, and Adam Smith were to him mere sophistical juggling.
"The change?" "Yes, yes! His hair is lighter!" "Lighter?" "Yes, lighter than little Frank's! And his eyes his eyes are blue! Frank's were brown!" "Great heavens, it's true!" burst from Merriwell. "What does it mean, Inza? What sort of juggling in this?" "Frank Merriwell, that's not our child!" He staggered as if struck a terrible blow. "Not our child? Then, who What child is it?
The children were immensely tickled, and Mrs. Moss was so amused she would have lent her best soup-tureen if he had expressed a wish for it. But Ben was too tired to show all his accomplishments at once, and he soon stopped, looking as if he almost regretted having betrayed that he possessed any.

He did a little juggling with the iron balls, and, just as he had half anticipated, a big goldfish swam between his hand and the ball once, just as he was about to catch it. He, therefore, failed to get the ball, and, taking advantage of the occasion, he pretended to get angry. He shook his fist at the fish, which, of course, darted away.

This conduct so exasperated the American people that they demanded war with the oppressor, and on June nineteenth the war of 1812 began. Napoleon's diplomatic juggling had been entirely successful. A year earlier the princes of the Rhenish Confederation had received their orders. Their peoples were unresponsive, but the zeal of the rulers overcame all opposition.
It follows that the famous scholastic 'proofs of God's existence' have for Newman no cogency whatever; indeed it is difficult to see how he can have escaped condemning the whole philosophy of St. Thomas Aquinas as a juggling with bloodless concepts.
