MARION HARLAND'S HELPING HAND

HE following letter is of interest not
 only to " Country Woman" whose
 communication called it forth. but
 to a number of other women desirous
 of learning to make their way in writing whose letters have come to me recently.
 , In response to the request of Country Woman, l offer a bit of my experience, a have attained some success at writing notwithstanding many obstacles, few ad- vantages. and a late beginning. l was raised in the country, never saw a town until my tenth Fourth of July, had learned to read and spell at years from the Bible and my fathers old blue Webster speller. l could not be spared to go to school and had but little over fourteen months schooling in all, the longest in school at any one time being two months
 There were stories in everything to me. and l sometimes told them to the other children; between my 9th and 10th years l attempted writing them, but the small efforts met with such ridicue and dis approval as to quench the desire to repeat the offense. Later l began trying to write out the little verses. often with tunes which l had always made to myself n- curing punishment with severe penalty for further indulgence in such foolish ness. These instances are mentioned as one of the obstacles for the stern repres- sion of my little early efforts resulted in a lack of self-eonfidence which has always hampered me

 In my early 30s an accident confined me to the bed for some time. When I could use my arms by bracing my elbows on the bed I wrote out some of my music, using a small board propped up before me. sub mitted it to large publishing house, and was delighted with an acceptance on royalty. Several were published both songs and instrumental, also a number of hymns, words and music, still to be found in various hymn books. Then an aIluring prize competition drew me to attempt stories, and in utter ignorance of all literary requirements. but following their direc- tions, two were written on my board and submitted in competition with the bes, trained writers. One was soon returned l supposed the other was lost but months afterwards, when I was up and in harness again, the manuscript forgotten, came a letter with S20 check and request to see more of my work.

 This is an admirable and most helpful letter, which is my excuse for publishing it at length. l have rarely read a record of more inveterate courage and perseverance in the face of obstacles which would have utterly disheartened many women and men. When woman has such a genuine love of her work that it would be sin to discourage her. Those who feel as she does should keep on with their writing, but they should be sure that they resemble her in the genuine affection for the occupat tion which would keep them at 1t whether they were paid for it or not-not in the thought that It Is an easy way to make money.

V Hominu of Hulled Corn.

" I note a request in your Corner for di- rections for making hominy of hulled corn and I gladly send it. We are all fond of it for change. Cover four quarts of clean white corn with water. to which add about two tablespoons of canned I've. If you make your own lye from wood ashes as for soap
 use about a quart of this if it is strong. Put the corn in this, start it to boiling, and let it cook until the hulls begin to start You can find out when this stage is reached by washing a few kernels in cold water. Take the corn out then and rinse it in two or three waters. Put it in cold water again. return to the fire and let it remain there
