THE STUDY OF LIFE.
Where WellKnown Novelist Find,
His Best Plots

Where Weli-Known Novelist Finds
His Best Plots.
A well-known novelist of New York
city was recently telling how he finds
his plots. Il have found nearly all of
them in real life by intercourse with
people in all sorts of society. There
are no plots to be drawn from the
imagination that are equal in interest
to those that can be learned by know
ing the actual experiences of many Of
our men and women.
Here in New York you can hear
o: plenty of love-lorn damsels and
bold swains; you can find heroes and
heroines a-plenty; you can find peo-
pie whose career has been romantic:
you can hear of intrigues and their
denouement; you can meet char
acters who would shine in the printed
page; you can easily find in the
actual experiences of your acquaint-
ances all the material needed for
tragical tales or humorous yarns.
Why, the best plot | ever wrote up
was not Of my invention. but was in
the story of her own life given me by

to the irish cause, was performing the

to the disadvantage Of the leading Ma

and priests will assist in obtaining
popular verdict. Both sides are pre-
