The Newspaper Man as n Writer OF
Fiction.

"How can a man best prepare him
self to be a successful author?" asked
an aspirant for literary honors of a
well known publisher not long ago.
Get a Job on a newspaper" was
the terse reply.
"But am serious" said the other.
."T mean to write books
81 am serious also" replied the
publisher you would be astonished
along with most everybody else. If
YOU could see statistics showing what
percentage of our successful authors
have had newspaper training. OF
course IN some cases IL might unfit
men who really had talent, owing to
the pressure they have to work under.
but TO most the opportunity of seeing
life under all conditions. of learning
to express oneself clearly and con-
cisely. Of always observing details,
and of seeing other cities and in many
cases other lands, lis invaluable.

SPEND YOUR OWN MONEY YOUR
OWN WAY.

Does il not seem strange to you
that "a dealer who tries to substitute,
when you ask for an advertised aTti-
Gle. should assume that you are not
capable of spending your own money?
Show him that you are by insisting
ON getting what you ask for and re-
fusing any substitute. Substitutes
pay him larger profit. otherwise he
would give you what you ask for,
without question. Manufacturers of
advertised articles produce large
quantities, being enabled thereby to
manufacture cheaply and furnish the
public with high grade goods ut the
price of inferior substitutes.
Substitutes are Expensive at any
price.

if to be absolutely necessary to start

from the numerous examples before

What the publisher said of authors
might be said with equal ;ruth of edi-
tors, especially of magazines, into
whose ranks have entered many who
were formerly of the newspaper
world.
The reporter who represents his
paper in other countries, especially
during time OF war or of other great
happenings, gets chance to store
up a mine of information and exper-
fence which will prove of exceeding
usefulness in later days. One press

Comfort, a western newspaper man
who has been coming steadily to the
front during the last few years as a
writer of fiction. He was at Martin

of his experience in a novel called
