member of his church, decided to employ an entirely new remedy for his patient. The Doctor Takes a Hand. This doctor was not wealthy, but the quiet dwellers of the Ozarks who knew him considered him "well off." "Brother Wright." the physician said on Sunday to his pastor, "ran you go to Chicago with me tonight?" "Chicago!" gapped the minister. "Why, -no I haven't any business there, and It's an expensive trip." "But you have business there." declared the doctor, smiling mysteriously. "I have, too, and we can attend to it together. I'm goins' to pay all the expenses." The physician unfolded his plan. He knew those eastern publishers couldn't recognize a good story when they saw it in manuscript form. It would be difficult in Chicago, but of course a personal vi-.it to the publishers would be better than negotiations by mail. Ho the doctor had decided to take Brother Wright to a Chicago company which handled a great book business, and which ought to be glad to have a chance at buying the minister's manuscript. Besides and here was where Brother and Sister Wright opened their astonished eyes widest the doctor was going to take $700 along with him to pay for getting the book out. if tho Chicago firm hesitated. Visit Chicago Publishers. So tho country minister and the country doctor went to Chicago. Tho doctor knew of the company

having bought books listed in a c atalog which it Issued twice a year am? always mailed to him. The books were good, yet cost him less money than other book concerns asked. That, he argued, proved the company to be alert. It would no doubt be glad to print another book as good as the minister's. But when, after breakfast the morning following their arrival, they found their way to the "big book company." even their rural ideas of simplicity recehed a shock to discover that the company did not occupy fine quarters on one of ' the principal business streets of the city. Instead, its "store" was a great loft in a rather dingy looking building in the Jobbing district, and the private office of the owners was a tucky little room, not so large as the minister's study at home. Still, the doctor had come there to sell his minister's book, and he tackled the task boldly. He von. too but not without much argument. Tho final outcome was that the company decided to bring out "That Printer of Udell's" refused by wise publishers without number, but nowsaid to have gone through editions totaling several million copies. Tho book people employed unusual methods in marketing their venture, however. They printed an entire chapter, with full page illustrations, and bound these pages into their next cataiopr. Orders began pouring In for "That Printer of Udell's." The young minister-author found

his growing royalties offering him an opportunity to take a rest. He built a little cabin, he and his friends, down on the White river in Taney county. There the ailing preacher and his faithful wife went for a year's rest and to give the husband the benefit of continuous outdoor life among the pines of the Ozarks. The clergyman began to mend in health, and also he began writing a new story urged to the task by letters frtm the Chicago firm. The Hrtvuler Outlook. "Tho Shepherd of the Hills" was the result a story of the very spot where the young writer wa3 fighting his battle for life and strength. The Chicago book people employed like original advertising methods for the new work. Everybody who knows about the Harold Bell Wright books is acquainted with the story of the success of that second novel. Others followed in yearly succession, all successful. And then the Wrights were able to go away to climes more suited to the delicate health of the rising author. They returned occasionally to visit old friends but not quite as in the days of old. The Ozark folk got a shock when they learned that their former minister had "come to Fee things religious in a broader light" and was not preaching any more. But the real hurt to their loving memories of Brother and Sister Wright came when the telegraph dispatches told of their former pastor's divorce from the wife of his ministerial years.

NEW YORK, July 29. Profiteering in the woman's garment industry will be fought with unicn-owned shops, factories and stores by the International Ladles' Garment Workers' union.
