hands the fate of many a book. That
his good judgment was not altogether

afterward was published and became
the success of the year.
On one occasion a budding author
managed to gain access to his office for
the purpose of submitting a book to
him.
Hall Caine took the manuscript from
the mans hands and glanced over it
for perhaps twenty minutes Then he
gave it back, with few words of sug-
gestion and criticism.

The sensatfon OF Hunger.

The sensation of hunger has not been
easy to explain. The new theory of a
German physician is that it is due to
emptiness of the blood vessels of the
stomach, and it Is pointed out that hun
ger is appeased with the rush of blood
to the stomach following the taking of
food and beginning of digestion. In
many anRmic PERSONS who have no ap-
petite when the stomach is empty the
blood vessels are really congested in
stead of being empty Lack of blood
in the stomach in health acts on a spe-
cial nerve, which is a branch of the
same nerve trunk as the nerves of the
mouth and tongue. A stimulus applied
to the tongue, as by spice, thus in
creases appetite, while disease affecting
the nerves of the tongue may p-oGnce
loss of appetite even when the seoIa-
ach is empty.
