IN DEFENSE OF POESY.
More in sorrow than in anger, The
Post takes issue with the Hon. Janies
Bryce, ambassador of Great Britain,
on the question of American poesy.
It may not be impolite to suggest to
the distinguished Briton that there
may be some things in our philoso
phy that he wots not of, however deep
his plummet may have sounded into
the depths of American politics. Is
it not possible that he may have spok
en inadvertently when he said there
was no great American poet? Can it
be that he has never heard of Louis
Michel, the Goethe of the Ghetto,
whose tributes to Theodore Roosevelt
are believed to have inspired the irre
sistible third-term movement? It is
true that Michel has left us, but his
voice still echoes along the Patapsco.
What does Mr. Brice say of Miss Mat
tie Peterson, whose fame rests upon
that poignant song which begins:
“I seen pa coming, stepping high,
Which was of his walk the way.”
Is Miss Mattie to be classed as a
stranger to the muse? What does the
British Ambassador want? Surely he
cannot pick a flaw in Reuben J.
Holmes, author of “Capri,” a single
couplet of which has become as fa
miliar as a household word:
•
“Where whips don’t pop nor gongs
don’t sound,
And stillness is blessed out of Italian
towns.”
Another singer whose music is tun
ed to mercy, and who deserves more
space than we can afford just now, is .
Georgia Bailey Purrington, whose
chief work is called “An Elegy to a
Dissected Puppy.” We ask Mr. Bryce
to read and ponder this stanza:
“And ruthless hands of alien race
Are opening up thy quiet breast,
With prying eyes they peer within,
Explore the contents of thy chest.”
In this the quality of mercy is not
strained. But if a lyric note is de
manded, let Mary Lou Tench sing:
“Virginia is a happy place
In good old spring time,
When we go beside the little brook
To gather violets fine.”
Or, if Mr. Bryce asks that some
modern poet be produced who shall
sing only of things American, regild
ing our traditions with the magic of
his muse, let him yield to the witchery
of Cadmus P. Silverthorn, of Alexan
dria:
“Whiles the Jamestown Exposition
Shines on banks of Hampton Roads,
Let us sing of old tradition
While the gentle muse us goads.
“Cometh history to haunt us,
Tales it brings to charm us with,
How the punctual Pocahontas
In the nick of time saved Smith.
“How she did not quit or falter
After she had once began,
Rescued John Smith from the halter,
Although later married another
man.”
There are others, but these will do.
The truth is that poesy, like every
thing else in the United States, is
passing through a season of unexam
pled prosperity on account of the rec
ord breaking yield. It is unfortunate
that a diplomat of Mr. Bryce’s acute
perception should wound our feelings
by declaring in his haste that we have
no poets. —Washington Post.

DON’T BE ANXIOUS.
According to the national Forestry
Bureau over three times as much tim
ber is used in the United States annu
ally as is made by the new growth.
Noting that official output, the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat remarks that
“it is easy to see the finish unless the
principles of forestry are generally ap
plied.” Good old Martin Farquhar
Tupper, in a book that was written
about two generations ago and has
been almost forgotten and not fre
quently in its early life was treated
with more ridicule than veneration,
said: “Thou hast seen many sorrows,
travel-stained pilgrim of the earth,
but that which hath vexed thee most
has been thy looking for evil; and
things that never happened have
chiefly made thee wretched.” In all
probability the principles of fores
try will be generally applied. The long,
long period of gross wastefulness of
timber is, to all appearances, close
to its end. Reform set in some years
ago and is progressing hopefully. It
is, of course, impossible to atone for
past neglect in this matter, because
we cannot live over a single moment
of the past. “The mill can never grind
with the water that’s run by.”
But we can avoid the wastefulness of
the past and we can plant trees. And
it is to be remembered that iron or
steel now takes the place of timber
to a very great and constantly in
creasing extent in all sorts of build
ing operations, even in fences. Judg
ing the future by the past, it may be
expected most confidently that other
substitutes for timber will be on duty
before any serious trouble occurs by
reason of the lack of building mate
rials. As to fuel, if neither coal nor
wood were available, denatured alco
hol in any quantity could be supplied
at small cost. The world moves. —

FATHERS AND SONS.
Sez pa to me in solemn tones:
“Such things I don’t enjoy;
I greatly grieve that you should fight
That model little boy.
“For he is good and does what’s right,
And he is just and fair,
And I would have you imitate
His virtues great and rare.”
Then pa, he licked me good and hard.
And let it go at that.
And w r ent off to the baseball game
Where all the bleachers sat.
And when that just, fair man cried
“Foul!”
Pa rose up with the host
And hollered with his might and main
To lynch him on a post.

AFTER NINE YEARS, RELIEF
A True Story, With a Moral Which
Points to Some Interesting Ways
tor Women to Cure Themselves
From the Agonies Caused by
Female Disease and
Disturbance.
LETTER FROM A LADY
Nine Years of Constant Suffering and
Failure of Doctors to Give Relief, Left
the Writer No Chance But to Try This
Method of Home Treatment, Which Af
forded Prompt and Permanent Relief.
FREE ADVICE FOR LADIES
Nine years is a long time to suffer
from the terrible pangs of female dis
ease. Think of it! Nine long, weary
years, of seemingly endless suffering! A
long, dark inferno, with no turning!
And then, one day, a light in the dis
tance, a feeling of new health, freedom,
relief and realization of perfect cure*
Such, in brief, is the story of Lizzie
Matthews, of Mount Vernon, Ga., whose
letter we print below. She says:
“I was troubled with female disease
for nine (9) years. The doctors first
called it ‘nervous prostration,’ then
‘change of life,’ and finally ‘catarrh of
the organs,’ but no matter what they
called it, they could give me no relief.
“At last I decided to take Wine of
Cardui.*' I have now taken three (3)
bottles and can say that my health is
better than it has been in nine years.
Before I began to take Cardui I could
not eat anything, could hardly sleep, my
back and hips would ache, and then I
would be nervous and I was troubled with
leueorrhoea. Once a month I would have
to go to bed for two or three days. Since
taking Cardui I do not have to stay in
bed more than a half a day, and all my
other troubles have gone.
“I have praised Cardui to all my
friends, and shall continue to do so.
1 wish every suffering lady would try
it.”
For young, middle-aged and old, Wine
of Cardui forms a perfect female tonic.
It is a pure scientific vegetable extract,
perfectly harmless, absolutely non-in
toxicating, always reliable and effective.
Obtainable at all prominent drug
stores in SI.OO bottles.
