writing a Book.

The following confession Of a novel
list as to the method in which he wrote
one Of his books is not without inter-
est He had had the story outlined In
his notebook for long time and ought
to have been able to write it, but did
not feel able. Then one day he hap
pened to think of it again and saw, al
most as if 1t had been stage scene,
the little tableau with which the book
was to close-one of those ends which
are also a beginning. So he began to
work and In short time had complet-
ed the first three chapters. Then, for
no reason that he can give, there was a
jump, and he wrote the chapters which
are now numbered XXI and XXI, the
last in the book. Then he went back
and wrote straight on from Nv to XVII.
The story had been with him so long
that it was the easiest thing In the
world to write it, and so he got through
this part Of the work with remarkable
CELEBRITY. In the eighteenth chapter
nothing happens. Every day for a
fortnight he rose, breakfasted and tried
to write that chapter; every night he
tore up big pile of manuscript which
he knew to be hopelessly bad. Then
he got desperate. The chapter should
be written and should stand, whether
good or bad. He wrote it and left the
house because it was bad and he had
resolved not to tear 1t up. Next day
he wrote chapter XIX, and on the NOR
row he rewrote chapter XVIII and
somehow or other contrived to get into
it all that he had failed to get before.
Then he wrote chapter XXX. and the
hook was completed.-London Post.

controlled" said Dr. Coltman, but
owing to the underlying condition of
chronic gastritis, With persistent
nausea, only the mildest food could be

permit certain measures customary in
