ITO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-ssfr: have been
asked to read an essay on d" Tho Greatest Lines In
English Poetry before the Suncook tN. H. United
Chaucer and Bridge Clubs. While III may say
so without conceip am toerably familiar with
the older English poetry from the beginning to
1870 or 1880. am much less proficient in contem-
porary verse. Would be asking too much to ask
you to name the memorable line OF verse which
has been produced In the last ten or twenty years.
"UNIvERsrrY CLUB. Nov. 0. FABA."
1t is no trouble to show goods, but who
shall guarantee the guarantor? In writ
ten poetry as in that higher branch,
the color of ladies eyes, the chooser
may follow his impressions and bid cold
judgment 90 hang. If our correspon-
dent will accept an opinion which has no
other merit than sincerity, we offer him
a sonnet by that distinguished Pennsyl-
vania sonneteer, Mr.. LLOYD MIFFLIN. 1t
is called "The Embalmer. and is printed
in his latest collection of sonnets, Gas
Italian Days We can't reproduce 1t, in
full, without treading on the toes Of
copyright The Maiden, dead, naked
and brown a lotus at her head, is lying
on black marble in the Crypt; and 1the
pale embalmer, apparently Caucasian,
gets to work:
He washed her heart In palm wine, as was meet.
And In the empty body deity spread
Arabian nards that heavy fragrance khed,
With myrrhy spices and the mystic wheat
He laid he paals IN Canoptan jars.-
In our poor judgment this last line is
the most powerful, pathetic and natural
istic in the verse Of the last twenty-five
years. Indeed. for its equal, we might
have to go back to FIELDLNGs 90, Hun
camunca, Huncamunca, o." True, that
is mere debauch of sound. We recall
no other great embalming poem with
which Mr.. MIFFLIN's can be compared.
GARRICK's we'll known verses, express
ing the epicurean aspirations of JENNY
QUIN, the actor, are avowedly humorous:
Let me embalm this flesh OF mine
In turtle fat and Bordeaux wine,
And spoil tn Egyptian trade"
The Egyptian trade was not spoiled.
1t is embalmed forever in the fluid line:
He laid the vtas In Canopian jars
So sleeps the brown maiden, disem-
bowelled but immortal, enclosed in gen.
uine Egyptian pottery and sung to by
the murmuring Nile and Mr.. MIFFLIN.

Something That Will Do You Good.

We know of no way in which we can be of more service to our read. CTS than to tell them of something that will be of real good to them. For this reason we want to acquaint them with what we consider one of the very best remedies on the mar ketfor coughs, colds, and that alarm ing complaint, croup. We refer to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. We have used it with such good results in our family so long that it has be- come a household necessity. By it's prompt use we haven't any doubt but that it has time and again prevented croup. The testi- mony is given upon our own expe- rience, and we suggest that our readers, especially those who have small children, always keep it in their homes as a safeguard against croup.-Camden IS.

"A TURKISH TEXAN"
Willie Golfers Comedy Makes Good at Casino.

Willie Golfers Comedy Makes Good at Casino.
 Willie Golfers "A Turkish Texan" in which George Parsons and Isabelle Urquhart are being featured this week at the Casino is something swell. s4
 Play, players and effects are of the highest standard and it is dubtful if there is a summer attraction in the South that is in the class of this weeks bill at Picketts Spring.
 Willie Collier did clever things before he did "A Turkish Texan" Montgomery playgoers remember with pleasure his On the Quiet" but the Collier play now in Montgomery, although a comedy of en- tirely different vein. is equally clever.
 The play is straight comedy built on the theme of young American living as Turk in order to secure an inherited fortune. The lines are decidedly bright and clean and the situations with which the production is replete are funny beyonf measure.
 While every member of the cast is clever player George Parson as A. Has sen Smith is the show. His wit is subtle and original. After the second act Par sons received three certain calls.
 The entire cast Is well balanced. scenery and costumes and properties are new.
