JUST SEND YOUR NAME < IUNQ GERMINE CO. 501 debIock,JACKSON, MICH- A SELECT SUMMER CLUB. Located high up in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina, one mile west of the picturesque town of Hen dersonville, and overtowering that city by some two hundred feet, is what is proving to be one of the South’s most popular, attractive and exclusive sum mer resorts—South Carolina Club, a summer club for select Southerners, organized by a party of progressive South Carolinians. This Club is truly richly favored wdth those features which go to make an inviting summer place. A cool, bracing climate, unrivalled view of all the high mountains in the Blue Ridge, a tranquil lake bed fed by bold moun tain streams; cool springs; lovely drive and walkways, rhododendron, oak and chestnut groves, and a commodi ous and inviting Club House. It is also fortunately located within a few minutes trolley ride from the shop ping district and railroad station of Hendersonville. The management of the South Caro lina Club has spared no pains to main tain a select club for Southern fami lies of refinement and culture, and the plan upon which it is operated not only accomplishes this, but reduces the liv ing expenses of members to a mini mum. Membership can only be ob tanied through the purchase of a share of stock, which participates in the earnings of the Club and gives the holder the privilege of all Club bene fits, as well as meals at the Club House at a very low rate. Excellent cottage sites are reserved for mem bers, and the erection of the building looked after by the management if so de sired. Both the Club House and the cot tage enjoy all modern conveniences, elec tric lights, baths, telephones, etc. The Club is not an experiment, but a proven success, demonstrated by the fact that the best families from several South ern states have chosen it as their summer homes since it first opened in 1911, and that new members are expected from prac tically every part of the South the coming season.

But alas, the quietude was to be shattered like a glass bowl! On Thursday night a slow drizzing rain was falling, and I got out my star maps to study them and locate the position of the fixed stars so I would be ready to study them in the sky on the next clear night. I went over the maps carefully dotting the stars so I would know just where to look for them in the June sky, and when I had finished this task I took up a little book by Quiller Couch, en titled “The Pilgrim’s Way’’—a collec tion of poems and fine prose culled from various authors —and began to read that exquisite prose poem “Night and Carlyle Dying” by Walt Whitman. What grand and tender thoughts Whitman could think! After I had read until my eyes were tired, I put my head down on the window-sill and listened to the ceaseless fall of rain outside. Then somehow an old mem ory stirred and out of the past a face rose and a tenor voice began singing “The Indian Serenade.” It was a clear voice full of tenderness and pathos, but as I listened I felt pulsing through it a subtle note of indescision. Would the singer ever try to climb the sub tle heights to which his soul had mo mentarily soared? Through all the ten der, wistful lines the sweet voice went on, and I saw again the familiar little room with its treasured books and pic tures. The picture faded as the voice died away. My intuitions were cor rect, Mary dear, at that time back in the past, for I saw him not long ago and he is money-mad and does not sing any more. But just at the moment I was trying to analyze my mood and see if it was reading of the stars, or handling the little book in which the old vibra tins were held that had called up the memory and the song, an agonized voice called to me from the back porch. "‘Come quick! Hold the light—the cat’s in the well!” Now, Mary dear, you know I don’t like cats one bit, but I did not like to think of one getting drowned in the well, so I hurried out at top speed. Mrs. G. had a rope tied to a market basket and hurriedly let it down in the well. “Hold the torch! The wind blew the lamp out!” she called to me. (1 grabbed the pine torch obediently and tried to throw the light down into the well from which the poor cat was sending up the most dismal and dis tressing wails. We fished and fished while the rain beat in upon us, but the poor cat was too near drowned to clutch the basket, and after a while his wails ceased. “He is dead,” Mrs. G. said calmly. “Some one left the cover off the well. I could have saved him if I had heard him in time.” I went back to my room and tried to resume my reading, but the awful GEORGIA-ALABAMA BUSINESS Eugene Anderson, President.

They got the cat out of the well next morning and drew off the water, but many things happened after this. No, Mary dear, I would not advise you to go to the country to do your work. If you really wish to work — real hard thinking and writing, get into an apartment up in the heart of the city, and let the world go by, un less you can live in a cabin in the woods like Thoreau. Always your loving friend, ITALY HEMPERLY. SOME CURIOSITIES OF LITERA TURE. Among the curiosities of literature is the propensity of men of genius to imitate the writings of dead or im agined authors and palm off these imi tations as the work of these dead wri ters, when they might have won fame by their ow nhonest literary work. Among these famous forgers who lived about the middle of the 18th cen tury, were MacPherson, Ireland and the wonderful boy Chatterton. Mac- Pherson was a Scotch adventurer, who attributed his compositions to the Celtic Homer —Oss ; an. “His spear was a column of mist, and the stars looked dim through his form,” is a specimen of the Ossianic imagery, which became popular throughout Eu rope; poetry, painting and even the stage being filled with these misty phantoms. Even to the present day, they possess a sort of charm for the young and the uncultivated reader. The author died without leaving any clue to what is now considered an audacious imposture. (A. D. 17774835.) William Henry (Ireland deserves mention only on ac count of his Shakespearian forgeries, among which was a play entitled “Vortigern,” in which John Kemble acted in 1795, Ireland soon afterwards acknowledging himself the author of these forgeries. (A. D. 1752-1770.) But the annals of literature present no parallel for the extent and ingenuity of the for geries executed by the boy, Thomas Chatterton. Beginning at the age of eleven to write verse, this precocious genius soon created a whole literature of the past. Among the med’aeval buildings in which Bristol abounds, the most re markable is the noble old church of St. Mary Redcliffe, of which Chatter ton’s father was sexton. It was also the burial place of Canygne, a weal thy citizen and benefactor ot she church in the reign of Edward IV. Here was still preserved an old chest called Canynge’s coffer, filled with charters and other documents record ing Canynge’s benefactions. The young poet’s love for ancient archi tecture was fostered by the beauty of this building, and in his solitary ramb lings through the old church he dream ed of antique things, drawing addi- Mamma Says zS Its Safe for CONTAINS 4 NO opiates {yj /Mww tional inspiration from an old French book filled with pictures which he had accidentally found. When a new bridge over the Avon was opened, Chatterton produced a discolored; parchment giving an ac count of the processions, tournaments, etc., that had celebrated the opening of the old bridge. A literary gentle man desiring some information upon the early history of Bristol, Chatter ton again discovered in the Canynge chest a full history, illustrated with small maps, and sketches of the streets and churches. To Mr. Bur gum, an honest pewterer of Bristol with a love for heraldry, Chatterton gave a pedigree back to Od, Earl of Blois and Lord of Holderness. Hor ace Walpole was then writing his “Anecdotes of British Painters,” and Chatterton furnished him with a long list of the mediaeval artists of Bris tol. These various documents, pur porting to be the works of the monk Thomas Rowley, once the. agent of the generous Canygne, Chatterton claimed to have discovered in the Canygne coffer. Along with these were many poems of remarkable merit. No task is so difficult as that of successfully imitating ancient compo- (Continued on page 16.) DON’T WORRY—EAT. Memphis, Tenn. —Mrs. Emma D.
