To Jonathan.

You have been kind enough to receive favorably two volumes ofunpretentious impressions of your great and most hospitable country,published in 1889 and 1891.

You are a dear friend and a delightful fellow. You are on the road thatwill safely lead you to the discovery of everything that can insure theprosperity of the land of which you are so justly proud.

Yet the Old World can teach you something; not how to work, but how tolive.

I have drawn a few sketches for you. Perhaps they will show you thatpeople can be happy without rolling in wealth, or living in a furnace.

Take up this little book and, lighting a cigar, lie down quietly on thegrass and read it under the shade of a tree.
