From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
l am literary" now, but at one humble
period o my life I never expected to be.
The fact has not yet become generally
known. but lit is ''percolating," as it were.
The path by which reached my present
goal was devious and winding, and some
times rather finty. 1t began in the kitchen,
where l learned to be a good cook at the ex-
pease-it must be conHessed-of my family's
digestion. My very first effort for publication
was for an amateur paper, published and
edited by a boy cousin. He had reached
that stage Of life where it is utterly impos-
sible for a boy to exist without press and
type. In a rash moment promised him
continued story.
The torments | endured from that boy are
agonizing to recall TO this day; for l never
had the copy ready. The paper was pub
llshed weekly, on Saturday, and l was to
furnish ''stIckful" a week. One would
think that could have been ready easily.
That was just the trouble; it was too easy.
Relying on that fact, | always procrastinat-
ed in regard to II. remem Der one Friday In
July l was busy making three gallons of
raspberry jam. 1t had just Degun to
thioken-a most critical stage in the
process, as any cook knows-and l was
bending over it as soicitously as the
witches in Macbeth over their cauldron Of
hell's broth. A shrill boy voice assailsd my
ears with:
Hello. therel Got that copy readyP'

| my Jam. But he pictured the distress OF
his patrons SO touchingly If his paper failed
| to appear on publication day, that yielded.
| set The lam back on q cooler part of the
stove, went into the dining room, wrote the
| stuff he wanted on some wrapping paper
! the boy standing at my elbow meantime,
shifting uD the tears he had SO nearly shed
over nay delinquency. 1t made me fright
! fully nervous, but 1t wouldn't have been
decent to tell him to stop, as | was the
cause of them. got it done and sent him
of happy.
On my return to the kitchen a sickening
odor Of burned sugar greeted me.
The atmosphere WAS as blue as Indian
summer with smoke. The fire had expert
| enced boom during my absence, and my
| jam was a sacrifice to Vulcan and the
MUSES..
However, saved some of it and, as peo-
pie do with their sorrow, trusted to time to
mitigate its bitterness.
The next turn Of the path took me TO the
school room. Ny scholars were large and
impudent. My years did not exceed theirs
enough to command the respect due age,
and my experience was mil"
taught "emo, anIas. amat," to those I'M
lovely girls and boys, all the time being
more and more convinced Of the fallecy OF
