THE LITERARY HACK.
His Income OF $1,000 Year and How

His Income OF $1,000 Year and How
He Gets 1t.
Hack writer's, who are also bohe-
mians, tell pretty yarns about the
great sums of money that they earn.
/ fancy that the bohemian hack usu-
ally computes his earnings in this
way: When he conceives an idea for
q 800 article, he counts that he has
made 500. Then when he gets an
order for the article he counts 800.
When he writes it, there is another
hundred; when he turns it in to the
editor, another hundred; when it is
accepted, another; when he gets the
money, still another. So with this
one poor little article the sanguine
and cheerful bohemian hack will in
the end, according to his happy
method of computation, have made
5000 No wonder that we hear of lit
erary hacks who make $40, 900 and
$50, 000a year. But they do not make
it by long shot. It is not possible
for hack unless he have some spe-
cial and exceptional good luck to
make moro than IS, 900 year
l have made that much, but av-
erage only little loss than IS, 900
year. To do this / work every day
IN the year, and in all my walks
abroad my eyes have to be always
open for subjects. 1t may be interest
ing to make transcript from my

amount of work that had to be done
l do not for obvious reasons state
what years account this is:
