/, SHED A FEW TEARS UPON IT.
The thought which is concealed In
the paragraph above came to me a few
days ago after l had read an interview
with Mr.. Howells, in which there was
much good advice to young writers. l
felt a strong impulse to attack the sub
ject, and, incidentally, Mr.. Howells.
This did not strike me as presumptu-
Gus.
If I wished to learn how it feels to
be run yer by a moving machine l
would rather have a few earnest words
from u man who is being chopped up
than the sober af%ter-thought Of a much
better man who escaped with only the
loss of his overalls. Though the cares
incident to being q young writer have
made HE older than my w father,
while Mr.. Howells (who raised n mus
tache before l was born) is still in the
vigor of youth, / am qualified, at least
by the records in the family bible, to
speak for the boys.
BIT at this point comes the thonght
already mentioned, which l intend to
stick to because l may not have
anot'rr all summer. This is it: Who
cares or the young writer anyhow
Or the old one, either? Isn't the writer
pretty nearly the most embarrassing
object on the face of the earth? He
cannot appear in his own work without
violence to his art and in my opinion
this same judicious principle should up
ply to him generally. His tolls and dis
appointments are not understood by
the public and there is no need that
they should be.
One of the cleverest young writer's !
know has tried in vain to make his
landlady understand them, but She
would rather discuss the value of his
baggage as collateral security. Hence
by the principle which l enunciated in
the beginning / should never have writ
ten this letter, but ! shall finish it just
the same, for need the money. Aud
this brings me naturally to my advice
to youn. writers.

%ADULTERATED FOOD.

Public opinion is being aroused in re-

The cry is going out that our grocers
must attend to this matter.

than a%dulterated food.
This is adulterated and poisonous
drugs.
irresponsible dealers should not be
allowed to sell poisons without any re-
strictions.
There are remedies on the market
