A Story-Bee in Her Bonnet.

Dear Mrs Herrick:
1 have written a story and would like
your advice about publishing It. am
very anxious to have my story success
Il years of age and have had only gram
mar school education. Ny father could
advise me- but 1 want to surprise him
after have made a success. tor he thinks
I am not capable Of great things. Also. can
YOU tell me whether advertisers want little
verses for advertisements about their manu-
factures9 If so. kindly tell me where to
write to and ask if mine are acceptable
Do you remember. my dear. the ad-
vice that Punch gave great many
years ago to persons thinking of getting
married? 1t was. 1-Don't!" That is the
advice l give to you about your story.
Don't try to publish it. You are only
young girl-a very young girl-and you
have not the experience or the culture
necessary for a story writer. Study for
a while longer. read good literature,
write If you feel like 1.-THE practice will
do you good-but don't try to rush into
print. Your father has right on his side
when he thinks you cannot do great
things. Wait until you are older before
you attempt publication. This sounds
heartless, but it isn't. 1t is only common
sense. You write a good hand, you spell
and pHnctuate correctly, you frame your
sentences well. All these are in your
favor. You may make a writer enc OF
these days, but don't crowd the pace.
Serve your apprenticeship as student
before you undertake to instruct or ed
ify others. Let me hear from you again.
Write a letter that will help the other
girls and which can put on this page.

my husband likes them and don't know
how to make them? Believe me, should
be very grateful to know the way. Sincere

I really oughtn't to be answering
just to girls-every bit of 1t.
But you say that you are "a young
hoasekeeper." SO you cant have been
married very long, and Wen make
place for you-won't we, girls?
So here is your recipe:
BUCKWHEAT CAKES.
One quart buckwheat -four, four ta-
blespoonfuls yeast (or n cake), one
handful Indian meal, one teaspoonful
salt. two tablespeenfuls naolasses. Warm
water--just enough TO make thin bat
ter. Beat all the ingredients together
at night. and set in warm spot to rise.
Bake on a quick iron.
