His wealth, while ill-gotten is sufficient to start the girl in her new business venture, and he earns the girls undying gratitude in advancing the loan. But "the kid" loves June, and while realizing his un- worthiness, he hopes to work out his complete reformation. But Junes af- factions arc placed with q different man Harry Hope-the capitalist 2f Nome and really the only worth while" man she has met in the north.

In 1895 I got a pen drawing printed in Life and thought my real start had come Then Life reflected 31 subsequent drawings, so went back to writing and quit draw ing. Writing is a trade, and like any other trade it must be learned We must serve our apprenticeship; but we must work it out alone. There are no teachers. We must learn by failure and repeated efforts how tine thing should be done.'
 Harrington kept on writing and re- writing his stories, which were re- iected every time, for eight years. The struggling young author confessed that the gross return for his first five years of work was exactly S22 50. Old Tom Martin, a well-known Indiana charac- ter speaking of those days of trial, said: q had faith in Tark, for he had sand in his craw.'" He had certainly a strong determination to succeed, for on him rested no necessity of earning a means of Likelihood.

BOOTH TAKING ON BEGAN TO WRITE PLAYS AT VERY TENDER ACE.

Booth Tarkington, the author of many plays and books, entered the realm of fiction at a very tender age. It has been said of him that he began dictating stories to a long, suffering sister before he could write himself. From early boyhood Harrington en- joyed close friendship with James Whitcomb Riley. They would take long walks together, the junior listen ing with rapt attention to the wise sayings of the senior.
 He was sent to Phillips Exeter Academy for his preparatory course, and eventually entered Princeton. Young Harrington wrote, drew, sang, acted and composed music, and filled a place in many lines of student activ- ity, though he says it seems to him now that he tried to avoid getting an education as much as possible.
 After graduating at Princeton, Tark- ington returned to Indianapolis to en-
