allow her to break in upon me when
ever she pleases. Naturally she cuts
into my line of thought and often de-
stroys the continuity of genius The
only way for me to do good days
work is to quarrel with her, to make
her so angry that she will cry, fuss,
break a few dishes, smash kitten,
scald puppy or two, then go to her
room and stay there. By the time
have done a days work she is in ex-
cellent humor and tired of being alone
