MITCHEL 11111111‘1304111111Witiiiiit The popular ides of a novelist Is one who sits down to write at 10 o'clock in the morning and with half an deur for luneli tinishea his work at 3- He then lakes a nap, walks or drives. dines_ at 7, goes to the opera in the evdning and to bed at midnight. This„ routine of work is when the spirit moves him to write. If the spirit does not wove him he saunters in the park. drops Into his club for lunch and calls on the ladies in the afternoon. There may be novelists In foreign countries wlio fill this description, but pot in America. The American is usu- ally a magazine or newspaper man. Edwin Teal!, an American novelist of repute, wirs sitting at his desk reading a letter he had just -received when his friend Marston. who had plenty of money and nothing to do, dropped In on him for a few moments' chinning. Terill wearily tossed the let- ter over to Marstou and went on blue penciling manuscripts. It was from a woman, evidently a girl, asking for tn- formution as to where he found the name of one of his heroines. Elsie Hammond. In his recently published novel, \sly - \Hero.\ that being the writer's own name. She also spoke ad- miringly of the hero of the novel and complimented the author upon his \brilliant genius.\ \I suppose.' Marston remarked, \she thinks there ie ,.but one Elsie Ham- mond in the world:\ \Quite likely.\ replied Teall absent- ly. He was cutting out some \fine - \on oirr ()ter, DON'T YOU SiLA LOADND DOWN wrrn Wong?\ writing\ from a manuscript before him. \I would very much like,\ resumed the other, .\to pose for awhile as a genius Suppose you give me this let- ter to answer.\ \You are quite welcome to it if you don't bring any complications upon me.\ \Very good,\ - Marston replied., put- ting the letter In his pocket. / , 'Near tell me where you got the name.\ \Out of the telepbope register. That is where I get all my names for my characters.\ \II' In!\ grunted Marston. - There isn't so much romance it the bottom of these publications as would appear. I presume this Elsie Hammond thinks that you sat in a bower of roses think- ing out a name for your heroine or had some real person in mind whom you adored \Oh. fret out o' here'. , Don't you see I'm loaded down with Work?\ \Just so. And the world that reads your novels thinks you do nothing but dream. I'll go if you'll promise to dine witti . ape at My club next Satur- day night. If you don't promise I'll stay here all day.\ \All right; I'll promise anything to get rid of you.\ \Ta ta.\ \So long. Don't mix me up with that _ Marston went to his club, set down at a writing table with stationery racked up on it and wrote a note to Mies Hammond- Itn_told her that be had been charmed with her enconAntne upon his novel and that Elsie Rata- mond was a real person Re had once seep her walking in a flower garden, and, though he had learned her name, be had never since seen her. But be had never forgotten that sweet face looking. U, from among the roses. \That will do very well for a starter.\ be said to himself. After reading the letter over and making the necessaiy corrections he sealed and stamped It and dropped It lb the club letter box. In due time a reply came from Miss Hammond, In which she said sbe had felt very much complimented at hay- ing received 'so kindly a reply to her mote. She had supposed the author \S' Lived exolusively among his characters add had no time for any tine else. The oily occasion she remembered being, as he bad described. In a dower gut' - 'den was last summer, when she was visiting her envie, Mr. John Dole, at Rosedale. -While there she used to go out among the flowers every morning. This was quite enough for NiaWton. He wrote again to Mips liummund that he had often been in Rosedale skid It Was quite likely that it was ‘ she whom he had seen among' the flowers. If she would send him her photograph he could tell' at,once whether or no she was the heroine of _\My Hero.\ He would immediately return the photo- sitaph if desired. He also made an ina- portant additionartiteldental statement that he had drawn the character of Ernest Meriweather, the hero of the story, from his friend Mr. Joseph Mar- ston. • The photograph came by return mall. \Pretty enough to kiss,\ said Marston. \I would like to keep it, but since she says -nothing abont that 1 suppoiaezrii have to send It back. Well, what* the next move?\ The next move contained more vil- lainous deceit and frightful lying than all that had gone before. Marston wrote Miss Hammond that he -had a confession to make. Certain incidents that he had developed into the 'story of \My Hero\ had been told him by hia friend Mr. Marston, the hero of the story. It was Mr. Marston who' had_ seen her In the garden. He had . shown the gentleman her photograph. and - he had expressed a desire to 'meet her \That's sufficient,\ mused the plotter, \It _wouldn't do for me to say for Ned that he would like to make a real ro- mance out of it all. That would be 'carrying coals to Newcastle.' for it will be the first idea that will pop into his head.\ So A sent the letter, cun- ningly leaving out the most . important part of it. Of .course a reply came, stating that Miss Hammond would he happy to meet Mr. Marston - at her home, the address being given, at any time he might find it convenient to cell. That was. all there was in. this letter. Marston replied under his own . name. but in a different handwriting, saying that, having been honored by . Miss Hammond's permission to can, he would ao so on a certain date. He had, however, promised his friend -Mr., Teell that he would not -involve him in any way and begged that Miss Hammond would, for the present at least, con- sider the circumstances that had led to their meeting confidential. \Well now, I like -this,\ remarked Marston. \Here , I am, the hero of a novel, about to meet the heroine. We have gone through 400 pages of alter- nate misery and bliss; have been mar- ried on the last page, and It is about\ - Suddenly the fact.thrust itself upon him that there would come a time when all his knavery must be admit- ted He shuddered. For awhile thonght, then said: \There's but one' way out of it. I must make the girl !eve me so well that she w - On't stop to consider that in- stead of a hero I'm a villain.\ At the appointed time Marston called on Miss Hammond. She was becom- ingly dressed, and the lights were turn- ed low that her -visitor might not see her blushes, for had not a love affair between her and him all been written out and printed in a book? Maraton was charmed with her appearance. and. he being a handsome chap, she. was de- lighted- with him. He blushed as well as ale, but from a different cause.. Nevertheless he felt obliged to keep up the part he was playing for a time at least , \Really I little thought when saw you among the roses and tehl . friend about you that he ,wei going to make a novel out of It.\.. - \But there's no such.- scene fit the book,\ she exclaimed. . \Isn't there? Now I remember there Isn't Ned told .ine he started the story that way, but afterward founci another beginning that worked In bet- ter with his plan.\ \I'm told,\ remarked the girl, \that there never has been a case wherein two characters In a story dram:I - from real persons have mated\ , \Are - you sure og _that?\ said Mar aton, with a disappointed Jook. \It has never happened.\ She said this In a way that gave Marston encouragement to believe Itigt it would happen in this instance. • As the affair proceeded the perpe- trator of all this knavery became more and more conscious. of It and conse- quently much troubled One day be Went to Teal! and, telling bim• what he had done, asked him for heaven's sake . to suggest a way out of 'the matter Teall dropped his •editorial work and 'listened attentively. Then, instead of replying, a thoughtful expression set- tled on his face. - \What are you dreaming about?\ Baked Marston impatiently, Teall did not appear to hear him, and Marston was obl!ged to poke him to get his attention. \Oh yes: What a deuced fine scheme that will make for a ne* story!\ ' \New story be hanged!\ replied Mar- ston. \You'll put me Into no ne41 story without getting me out of the old one.\ \Leave it .to me,\ replied Tenn, grasp- ing his friend's hand. \These girls are all dying tO get into a story linitead of getting out of one. I'll go to see bet and develop a new schethe lb which you two are to be the het 4 iranii heroine. I'll say that this complication you have brought about Is to form the body of the romance and take all the blame on myself.\ And he did.
