KAXBOX NOTKS,

Why don't you write a book?,' asked Dcsdemnna suddenly ono Saturday afternoon as we sat for a little chat in the deserted office after the week's work was over.

Write a book!" aaid I. "Now, my dear Deademona, I pat the ease would you write a book If you rose at eleven, worked from one to five and then from seven to two In the morning

Desdemona said she didn't know. She had always heard that where there was ft will there was a way and that genius could do anything.

I told her there was no longer any doubt as to the correctness of those propositions. They had been established long before she or I was capable of contesting them and it was too late to begin now but that sometimes a man's doubt as to his being a real genius of the first water gave him pause. For my part I always intended to write a book when I should live in my two story stone house, with a bay window "looking to the south," a fountain In the froqt yard and a fish pond in the rear with such poetical little accompaniments as a grape arbor, conservatory, fruit garden, etc., thrown in and oonld get into the habit again of going to bed at ten and getting np at Seven. I had always intended writing a book under those circumstances, and a very readable one too, but that just at present would a little rather not undertake the contract.

I rather like Desdemona. We work in the same room. She "does" the Fashions, Literature and Art, and Personalities, and is something of & poetess too besides she is not bad looking.

She turned towards me the other day, while sharpening her pencil, and with rather an abstracted air, wanted to know "whether

elaborated my ideas

in their porfect form at the first writing or only made a rough sketch of them, like Lord Macauley did, and afterwards worked them out at my leisure."

I replied that I was afraid there was very little of "perfection" about them even In their most elaborated state, but that such as they wore it was my habit to catch them whenever I could just as I always tried to catch a flea when it bit me, If she conkl forgive the shock of the unpoeticat comparison. Sometimes (though rarely I must confess) I found a whole covey of ideas flattering into my head ami on soeh occasions I made haste to throw any sort of a ugh net over them that would keep tu*n from getting away awl afterwards I took them out one by one at my leisure*.

Deedemona laughed and mid the last simile was so jrvftr.t she.could easily pardon th„ wO^r fa. iia sake.

For my part 1 like the oompntiion of Uie fleabeii, for one can be bitten bf an idea, jnst as by a flea, until It makes him scratch. Rut I have often thr"ht that a good many "writers bite tb*tr u„as (or somebody else's) mas* untm fully, instead of being bitter by Otttm. I think evfery on# that 1MM ever done much has bwrn bfueti by his Idea and ^ome absolutely rabid from the eiL -.ta of it. Some people wre Hewed with such a pecan** epidermis ihafc the fie** never tttetfeem. U- ^-aiok! bar .- Mad pier- with a a ii ii the mentel entitle of some pr* pie equally proof Against the bite of an idea —The other Svi.bylwW «*dli "Itortta in the 1*n»" when it was ended she sal I:

After aU, what Is this thing of toe which to so th'iM fart Why not pat a*~" and be happy i. .iia said *,v» cmld not tell, only it wsa ver-hani to give up. It was the longing to work out what tli rets In us. Holl cid described the igeiisg when he wr~u: •Of all the dull, deed weights «oan ever bofd, San, none can wear the son! with discontent Like eonsetousnew of power unwed.

This Is the feeling. Whatever our power he there accompanies it an irre--'ntible desire to use, to exercise It. imio are some who caunot be restful and contented like their follows, rising up in the morning* working patiently through the day, iyittli down at night. TJ -. to something iu them unsaid—a m^aJge which has never been spoken but which struggles for utterance. They may not know what their power to nor how to use it, what their message Is nor how to say it. Yet they feel that they must apeak, that they must act. There i» a blind, reatieas groping after the means through which they may be revealed to the world. It is not for the world's praise that the struggle is made, but for the sattofiioUon, the justification rather, of their own souls. Something within keeps sayings "You have not done it yet—not yet," and there is no living in peace until that voice is silenced. This is the secret of their struggle—not that they thirst for man's praise* but that they long to escape this inward upbraiding. Was It some such a "demon" that haunted Socrates?
