IF.
If I had invented a washing machine,
A sewing machine or a plow,
A cultivator, a seeder, a weeder,
A recipe for chow-chow;
If I had discovered a killer of germs,
Or a new-fashioned striped mos
quito;
If I had thought out a patent on churns
Or could rhyme in a Kipling metre;
If I had designed the costumes fine
For the tent tour of Sara Bernhardt;
If I could have planned the buildings
grand
For the St. Louis display of art;
If I aad invented the burner of glass
That put such a shine on lamps,
Or gotten my thinks to the thinking
pass
To think up Columbian stamps;
If I could have made an electric clock
That never did have to be wound,
Or thought out the wireless telegraph,
Or the guns that shoot without
sound;
If I could have been the architect
Os a skyscraper straight and tall,
I’d now do nothing but read and rest,
With servants at beck and call.
I’d hie me away to a sunlit sea,
Or an isle of emerald hue;
I’d sleep to the music of mocking birds
And bathe my face in the dew
Where roses are blooming the whole
year round,
Where pansies hide in the ferns;
O, if I had invented a washing ma
chine
Or thought out a patent on churns!

CHAT.
Another blizzard has blizzed by, and
Soon-to-be President Taft has whizzed
by, and now Mardi Gras is upon us.
Rex, in all his gorgeous splendor, will
soon come into our great old city.
New Orleans is great, and no mistake.
The old French Quarter which has
been a subject and an inspiration for
songs, stories, lectures, memoirs and
poems, is fast being invaded by mod
ern innovations, and thus losing much
of its quaint and picturesque and ex
ceedingly fascinating atmosphere. 1
was talking to a lady recently who has
spent all her life in the “exclusive se
clusive select, preclusive and elect” at
mosphere and traditions, prejudices
and prevailing customs of this quaint,
queer, interesting but dilapidated old
“quarter,” made known to us all in
the best style and most impressive
manner of George W. Cable’s novels,
“Madame Delphine,’’ “Posson Pone —
The Entomologist,” and I have his lat
est and so-called best book to read —
beginning it right away. Grace King’s
books also give vivid and fascinating
impressions and ideas of New Orleans.
Her heroines usually live in attics or
garrets somewhere in a cheap part of
the city.
I wanted to go to Beauvoir to the
Lee Memorial, but could not. I hear
the exercises were indeed interesting.

How I would have enjoyed seeing
the Lincoln Memorial. We can’t do too
much to help overcome the prejudice
that has prevailed against Lincoln
among the uneducated or more nar
row minded Southerners who seem un
able, even yet, to see the nobility of
the man. He was great, he is great, be
cause when a man lives as Lincoln liv
ed, he never dies; his influence will
live forever. We Americans are rich
in great men, whose lives “remind us
we can make our lives sublime.” They
lead us upward and onward to attempt
and achieve greatness, and even the
effort helps us to feel nearer to higher
and broader and better elements.
There is a point on which I want to
be perfectly understood, and it is that
in the Department of Good Cheer 1
can’t tolerate even the smallest decep
tion. I say this because I received a
letter yesterday from a young woman
who wishes to write over a signature
that would lead people to think her a
man, thinking the masculine signature
would make her articles weightier and
have mbre strength of character. 1
can’t agree with her that deception in
any form could give her articles
strength of character. I thing the de
ception would insure an utter lack of
character. I am sure she will agree
with me when she considers the mat
ter in its relation to right and truth —
two great forces we can’t overlook or
disregard, or make compromises with
and be consistent Good Cheer workers.

BOOK REVIEWS—BUSINESS GIRL
VS. SOCIETY GIRL.
Well, Good Cheer: My first effort
found your waste basket, but I’m not
a bit discouraged. So here I am again.
When a man is on the road several
weeks and gets home, it is the finest
thing to find a pile of Golden Ages to
read and enjoy. I am anxious to see
what you folks are going to say about
physical punishment for children. My
good parents whipped me often, when
ever I needed it, and I believe they
did exactly right. But I was strong
and sturdy, never knew I had a nerve.
My little brother was weak and ner
vous, and often I took his punish
ment. I am glad I visited his grave
recently and there met a lovely girl
who had been placing flowers on a
grave near his. We became acquaint
ed by my offering to help her get some
evergreens. She thanked me very
prettily and I asked her to help me ar
range the flowers I had brought, which
she did in a gentle, dignified way. I
called on her later, and we are now
great friends.
I am sorry for Sunny Tennessee
right now, that the great blot of such
a murder as the cruel killing of Car
mack should forever mar the annals
of our loved Tennessee. Many hearts
ache at the thought that it can’t be
wiped off the state’s history.
I see “Martin Eden” is in Uncle Re
mus, and I anticipate a treat. I pro
pose we establish a book criticism in
our department. Let each one write
a criticism or an appreciation of some
book read. I have little time for read
ing, except on trains when traveling
from place to place as my business
calls me, and I try to buy books that
I have read reviews of and know
whether or not they contain something
worth while. Let’s hear from some of
you on the newest books, also on “The

about ROYAL SOCIETY EMBROIDERY OUTFITS. They

Prolong Life
In hundreds of instances
Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure has pro- ,
longed life many years, after' all
hope had been abandoned. It is
a heart tonic. By its strengthen
ing influence upon the heart
nerves and muscles, the heart ac
tion is increased.
“My heart was weak and at times I
thought I would die. I lost donSCious
ness one morning, and did not recover
for hours. My wife gave me whiskey
and applied mustard. A friend advised
Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure. I took two or
three bottles and it keeps the old heart
going right along. Have never had one
of those spells since. I should have been
dead years ago had 1 not found relief in
this valuable remedy.”
