Il loved Venice. I was stepped N its
charm and romance, and l was bitterly
disappointed that husband-such a dear,
really-did not live up 10 his role better.
However, l determined that some day,
when the ft was on-the only time I can
write-I would write a love story and make
environments; hut that is all the inspira-
ton l had, l assure you.
But l am used 70 that point Of view.
When I wrote The Visits OF Elizabeth
the same criticism was made. I was Eliza
beth. l had simply narrated the events OF
my own life.
When Ambrosine appeared. the heroine
of the next book, critics claimed that I had
admitted the portrait to be my own, and
my friends said: Why. Ambr0sine is just
you,' although as a matter Of fact they had
said that about Elizabeth, and the two
characters are diametrically opposed.

because Evangeline had red hair. The
only one of my heroines whom ! have not
been ikened to and accused of using my
self as model for is Theodore In Beyond

one, according TO critics and friends, whom

A FE W POINTS.

Editors Journal-There are two or
three points about the proposed bond
issue that think should be explained.
1st. The county treasurer will not
get commissions on the money received
for the bonds.
I'd. The county tax rate will not be-
increased 65 cents, but instead the en-
tire county rate will be about IS cents
for all purposes. 1t is now 4S cents.
Sd. AS to County Commissioners,
have talked with our legislative men,
bers, and find they all favor County
Commissioners, and will enact such
legislation this summer. Should the
bond Issue carry, shall turn it all over
to the Commissioner to handle.
4th. The present Communication tax
will not be discontinued, as some seem
to think, but it the bond issue carries
the road tax will not be increased, as
recommended by the second weeks
grand jury. Respectfully,
JOHN AwTREY.
