The Popular Nove1ist's
Opinion

"of course I am gratihed with the
favorable notices my last book, The
Colossus is receiving, because I con-
slider it my best work; but more than
all it pleases me because it demon
strates that men don't know what
they are talking about when they say
that the Kelley cure is injurious to
the brain. sThe Colossus was started
since I took the cure, two years ago,
and have worked more hours and
more carefully upon it than upon any
other of my books, and I am glad to
see that the critics decide it my best
work. That doesn't look as if the
Kelley Cure had affected my brain
matter, does it? The fact is my
imagination is more fruitful. my
style clearer and my ability to work
greater than it was before took the
Kelley cure.
