Hard Worked Author

Hall Caine holds the record for high
price. He has been paid more for
The Christian" his latest book, than
any novelist has ever received, even
in these days of high prices. The first
check he received from his publishers
was for $50,000-only an advance on
the royalty sales in England alone.
However, Mr.. Caine works hard enough
over his stories. He has been at "The
Christian for three years, made notes
and notes, and the accumulation of
these scraps filled six barrels! Then
when he had written the book he re-
wrote it three times No wonder he
is exhausted, but instead Of taking a
vacation he is making notes for a new
tale
