Heart toHeart
Talks

By JAMES A. EDcERTON
THE WRITING BUG.


Nearly everybody nowadays has the
writing bug.
This is as it should be. There is
nothing better for a man than to learn
how to express himself on paper.
Not all, but a surprisingly large num-
ber of those so afflicted have a desire
to see their stuff In print.
This also Is as 1t should be. Even II
they do not succeed, the attempt to
write something good enough to print
has its uses.
Right here I want to speak of a pop
ular delusion. 1 have spoken of it be-
fore, possibly In these very talks"
but 1t is widely enough held to bear
frequent mention.
1t is the mistaken belief that editors,
especially magazine editors, are in
league against amateur writer's.
To put it bluntly, this is so wide of
the truth as to be laughable.
The fact Is that editors, and especial
ly magazine editors, are eagerly look
ing for new talent They greet the
discovery Of a new writer Of promise
with almost as much enthusiasm as
the prospector greets the finding of
gold.
1t may be that they are sometimes
mistaken and overlook real ''color"
when they see it. This has happened
not only to editors, but to book pub
fishers. With such a mass of material
to pass on it is not surprising that
they should occasionally be mistaken,
but If so the mistake Is honest.
In such cases all the writer has to
do is to keep his stuff circulating. II
he sends it to enough editors and II
has real merit some one of them will
spot 1t.
This recalls the experience Of a man
who is now a well known short story
writer. In the old days he was as
sistant managing editor of a newspa-
per syndicate. The story was told me
by his managing editor, who would
not consent that the writer's name be
used.
Even while In the newspaper bust
ness this chap began sending out short
stories. In the beginning they came
back.
81 know what is the matter with this
enough I will keep on till I bring ii
up to the mark. Then 1t will stick"
He kept on. He studied and worked
harder than before. Finally he resign
ed his job. went out on farm and
devoted his whole time and attention
to short story writing.
Today he is famous, with a yearly
income OF five figures from his pen
alone. has his country home and auto
mobile and possesses the proud privi-
lege of turning down editors instead
of being turned down by them.
He won because he had no Illusions,
did not spend his time whining that
somebody was in league against him
and did not stop till his stuff was
good enough"

dog kingdom, to horses that are half
starved, sick and otherwise miserable
and to all dumb creatures, regardless
of their kind or of their rank. Be-
cause there are the hungry men and
women, the neglected, half-starved
children, and the i'll and suffering
everywhere.
And so there are.
But one of the sorry, sorry sights
in every city, big or little, is a work
worn horse, uncertainty stumbling
along when it's work-days ought to be
over. 1t is only the few that are set
free from their grind of work to learn
the joy of abundant pasture and we'll
earned rest. The majority remain in
harness to the end of their days
often dropping on the street in the
midst of their labors. And they are
not working for themselves, like men
and women; they are humble serv
itors, and nothing more, big, proud and
beautiful, when we'll cared for and
loved as they deserve to be, but droop
ing, woe-begone and miserable when
neglect or abuse is their portion
And while we need more homes fol
disabled men and women and more
retreats for the wee morsels of hu.
manity, there is room for sort of haven
for mans great servant and friends

And the Women's League is doing
fine work in behalf of the horse and
of other animals.

equipment. Specialists will be on duty
for the treatment of emergency cases
and all kinds of cases. There will be
box stalls, single stalls and padded
stalls, special kitchens, special foods
and special cooks; and there will be a
separate room for each kind of ami
NAL. And up on the top of the build
ing will be a roomy paddock, open to
the air and sunshine, where horses
may enjoy everything to help them on
their way to recovery and renewed
usefulness.
This is not the first good work done
by the Women's League. For there is
its Mountain Rest" farm, rest
home which extends it's hospitality to
horses run down through the ravages
of disease or crowded almost to the
breaking-point through overwork, I'M
derfeeding, and worst of all, abuse.
And there is it's Animal News" a
brisk little publication with the we'll
deemed aim of promoting humane
treatment of all varieties of dumb
animals and or urging little folk and
DiS LOlh 10 remember InS TISulS OF
their speechless friends.
There, too, is it's free dispensary,
where a poor man may stop for ad-
vice and treatment of the horse upon
which he depends for his daily living,
and may leave with a word of thanks,
and nothing more, if that is all he
has to give. For the dispensary freely
gives its services to horses, dogs,
cats, birds and other animals of low
degree. And among those who can
not buy them. it distributes non-slip-
ping chain shoes, which mean lot
to working horse on an icy morning
when the load is heavy, the hill long
and steep and the ordinary shoes very
insecure.
Then there is it's work on the side,
the work of dealing with cruel driv-
ers and of helping the down and
out" among dumb animals on the city
streets.
And theses its influence-which no
one can measure, or even guess.

ARE COLDS CATCHING?

1t is claimed that most colds are
catching as measles and that one
should avoid the association of any

anyone who has a cold to kiss your
child. Avoid crowded cars and poorly
ventilated sleeping rooms. Then when
you take cold get rid of it as quickly
as possible. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy used as directed will enable
YOU to throw it off quickly and per-
manently and is pleasant and safe to
take. For sale by all dealers.
