taineer? From the top of
Lookout Mountain, near
Chattanooga, you may

easily to their offices every
morning, is ready to lift you
just as easily to the summit
of Lookout Mountain, on
the Otis Inclined Railway.

MODERNIZATION
What ho—the babble of this mob,
Their grapple for the “filthy-lucre ? ”
Foul words attack the self-respecting
snob
And yet the scandal-monger gets Ips
The cheat is draped with laurels by

While honesty itself becomes a bore
And meekness, mean because it’^

Sword battle with our wits as knives.
Our code condemns the ancient storm
Yet to the self-same ends contrives.
