NEEDS GUIDANCE BY BRAIN
Great Driving Force Is Not
Behind 1t.

1t is recorded of Daniel Webster
that a friend presented him with a
steel pen-an article not generally
known in the active days of our great
oratorical genius. Webster found it
practical and efficient. But though it
writes beautifully and without
scratching" he commented, 81 could
never learn to compose with it. Its
fiuency districts my mind from the
matter in hand. 1 must compose with
quill, and make a fair copy, if need
be, with the steel point Mark Twain
was one of the first literary men to
experiment with typewriter. He
was enthusiastic about it's possibili.
ties, but he admitted his style suffered
pen to compose with. And yet, few
years before he had said the same
thing about the fountain pen. Its nov
city, it's tricks, it's very independence
of the ink well, took his attention
from his story. He could compose
better with steel pen or the stub of
a lead pencil.
1t is probable that when the in
ventor of the art of writing with
stylus upon waxen tablets introduced
his innovation the poet who had
previously composed his deathless
lyrics with & mall and chisel acknowl-
edged the ease of the new method.
but complained that no good poetry
could ever be composed by its aid.
One needs the fall of the hammer to
emphasize the ictus, he would say,
and the heaving of it up again to in.
dictate the arsis. The caesura came
when he paused to moisten his hands.
All this leads to the statement of
modern American versifier to the ef-
feet that he cannot write poetry when
he is deprived of his typewriter. This
poet was recently left without a ma
chine, just at the time when he was
obliged to prepare some copy for the
press. He made shift with pencil,
but the result was trifling. Il cannot
write poetry with a pencil" he apollo
gized to his publisher. Il have lost
the knack of it,
One can easily understand this. An
inspiration flashed across him-the
laborious scrawling of it by slow and
unaccustomed means deadened it and
dulled it. With a typewriter he
might have caught it on the wing and
fixed it e'er it fled

SHARKS BLOW SHIP WHISTLE
Then Sailors Know the Much Hated
Fish Has Been Caught on
Their Hooks.

Sharks are numerous in Magdalena
la of Lower California, says the Wide
World. The monsters at this point
seem to take almost any kind of bait,
and it is rarely that a warship is seen
at anchor without from one to a half
dozen lines dangling from it's stern.
Watching a shark line is a tedious
business, but it is strictly necessary
in order that the fisherman may know
when the monster is hooked, as it's
frantic rushes, if allowed to go I'M
checked, are pretty sure to cause some
part of the line leader or even a part
Of it's own anatomy to give way, and
result in it's escape.
The old scheme of tying the line
around ones big toe and going to sleep
would probably work all right so far
as rousing the fisherman was con-
cerned, but the sequel might not leave
him in a condition to give undivided
attention to landing the prize. To this
end the officers and sailors have hit on
an ingenious plan. Instead of taking
in their lines when the dinner gong
sounds or when for any reason they
are on duty elsewhere, they run a
stout piece of marlin Irvine from the
sharkline up to the steam whistle,
leaving it for the man eater himself
to announce the event of his being
hooked by sounding a toot.
