( DRY were good and II had not Il great
object In view. However, do not In
tend this book to be more than n col
/, lection of notes that will be useful to
me when i begin my novel. The novel
is to be the work of my life nnd |
mean to use every talent that 4 may
to make 1t unique and true to life. /
think the New Woman novel Is n thing
J OF the past, and that the time has now
come from n novel df the old sort. va,
written with IL fidelity to life such ms
mas never been attempted by the old
model while producing Il great pic
3ure or great statue Why should
4 not writer use n model also? The
motive of all great novels must be
love and the eliminating point Of n
love story Is the proposal. In no novel
that have ever read Is the proposal
well done. Men evidently do not talk
TO each other about the proposals they
mike, therefore man writer has only
his own experience to go upon, so his
proPenls have a sameness; his hero
proposes Just as he himself has done
or would do. Women writer's seem to
nave more imagination In this matter
but they describe q proposal as they
would like 1t to be, and not as il
actually Is. I find that II Is

pose suppose / haze n Gift that way

san Francisco Gail: Gold standard
ties are quite right. Fifty times more
silver dollars have been coined since
1878 than ia the entire previous history
Of the country. but they forget to men
ton the fact that the act demonetiz-
ing silver dollars continued them as
dollars only upon the basis Of their re-
demption in gold. 1t is nonsense, there
fore, to say that the country is enjoy
ing bimetaIHsm to a greater degree
than ever before. About $50. 600 600 Of
the silver bullion purchase notes have
already been redeemed in gold, and the
balance outstanding can be presented
for redemption in gold at any time their
holders like. BY the ruling Of secre-
tary Carlisle our silver dollars are mere
promises to pay their face value in gold,
and, therefore. nothing more nor less
than token money. The people should
not allow themselves to be hoodwinked.

through the perfectly organized machin-
cry Of the International Sunday School
association. You would learn. too, that
they not only know just how many chill
dren in the country attend Sabbath
school, but how many children do not
and you would hear plans discussed for
bringing in these outsiders. Tt is not
stated whether these statistics are made
up along about Christmas time or dur
ing the picnic season, when the Sunday
school tide is at it's highest, or during
normal periods, but it is probable that
the figures are conservative.
Besides the international convention,
which is a triennial gathering. this is
also the thirtieth annual national con
ventiOn. The general objects of the
convention are to improve and enlarge
the field Of Sunday school work The
great ambition of the delegates is to hit
upon some plan for gathering in the
millions of children who for various
reasons do not attend Sunday schools.
The organization is wholly interdenOmi-
national, and Baptists. Methodists and
Presbyterians, as we'll as members Of
other churches, work in harmony to-
gether. The question Of creeds is never
brought up, and so there are no clashes
arising from this source.
One of the most interesting features
Of this association is The thOroughness
with which it is organized It is great
machine, exerting its power and influ-
ence in a most praisew orthy cause. The
delegates come from every part of the
continent. Pastors, teachers and officers
of all Protestant evangelical Sunday
schools are entitled to participate, but
the official delegates are chosen by the
state territorial and provincial conven-
tions
The international executive commit
tee is composed Of 60 mem bers, one from
each of the states. territories and prov
inces. The members are elected at the
triennial conventions upon recommends
ton of the local annual conventions.
They hold Office for three years. During
the interval between the international
conventions the executive committee
meets annually to direct the work. This
committee also has a subdivision, known
as the central committee, which meets
as often as called together by the chair
man.
The work is divided into two parts
the work Of ingathering and the work
of upbuilding or the increase and the
Improvement of the Sunday schools.
This work is conducted by means of
conventions and institutes. with two
great auxiliaries, called 1.-THE Home
Class Department and the House to
House Visitation. " What the work of
these two divisions consists of is indi-
Gated by the titles they bear

erything viii be conducted according to
