Nearly all the women who are prom
inent today in literature began to write
original compositions of some kind or
another as soon as they could hold q
pen. Mrs. Meade has produced over 100
works of fiction and is still n lady in her
prime. Mrs. Hodgson Burnett began
her career in earnest at the early age
of Is. Rcverses had come to her family
by reason of the cotton famine. and she
was anxious to help the family funds.
Edna Lyall began to write stories when
she was about . years old She wrote.

and because she could not resist the
craving to describe the heroes and her

Progressing to the outward ex-
tremity of the pier, she made ar
rangements for her demise by lay
ing the letter on n prominent Oh
iect, whence it would be sure to be
discovered. Then, approaching
the edge and gluing her eyes on
the black and icy waters, she gave
way to the gloomiest forebodings.
AT that moment her ear was arrest
ed by human voices I'm sure
she directed her course toward this
point" said one. "Then / trust
that success will crown our efforts
to forstall any unadvisable action
on her part" said the other. The
familiar words thrilled her to the
core! A moment later she was
locked in the arms of the father
that bore her, and so they remain
