Then youth cropped up again-like
constantly recurring theme it came in
just as it had with Mrs. Mighels.
Il am sure" Miss Bogue meditated
that some of the best things people
have done were in their earliest works.
For instance, my cousin. Lillian Bell
wrote her best book, The Love Letters
of a Worldly Woman before she was
20, and now she simply can not write
anything worth while at all. 1t seems
to have gone out of her.
TT made me laugh to read what Mrs
Mighels said about Mrs. Ward. Many
of the best English critics say she has
good since Robert Elsmere and
David Grieve, and certainly some of
her phrases are absurd. In Eleanor
for instance, she speaks of the exquis-
lite emaciation of her arm Then, too,
another thing, I think a young girl is
better able to enter into the feelings of
girl and write really as she thinks
than an older woman. l have always
noticed in Mrs. Wards books that her
girls are too old; they do not act like
girls, but as mature women
Do not imagine that Miss Bogue is
going to await old age to continue in
her work, however. She said in
closing:
IF Mrs. Mighels is an author should
have thought she would have had more
sympathy with young writer and
tried to give me some encouragement.

was this Jean Roussel? Rouletabille
had traced him from Philadelphia to
Cincinnati. In Cincinnati he became
acquainted with the old aunt and had
found means to open her mouth. The
story Of Ballmeyer's arrest threw the
right light on the whole story. He
visited the ''presbytery," a small and
pretty dwelling In the old colonial
style, which had indeed lost nothing
Of its charm" Then, abandoning his
pursuit of traces Of Mile. Stangerson,
be took up those of Ballmeyer. He
followed them from prison to prison,
from crime to crime. Finally as he
was about leaving for Europe he learn
ed in New York that Ballmeyer had
five years before embarked for France
with some valuable papers belonging
to a merchant Of New Orleans whom
he had murdered.
And yet the whole of this mystery
has not been revealed. Mile. Stanger-
son had a child by her husband, a son.
The infant was born in the old aunt's
house. No one knew Of 1t, so well
had the aunt managed to conceal the
event.
What became of that son! That is
another story, which SO far l am not
Oermitted to relate.
