the conclusion-.
"I believe I can wrlle a better story
than that myself."
"Why don t you try?” eslied her hus
band. with a note of challenge In his
voice.
"1 will." she said.
And she did.
At any rale, the editor uf The Hatui -
day Evening Post accepted the story
upon Its arrival, and wrote her a note
nskliiR that she submit some mote
stories of the same sort.
Ii was an exceptionally auspicious
beginning for a .voting woman w ho nad
never before attempted anything In the
nay of literature, but In her work since
then she has lived up to the promise of
the-1 .‘-ginning.
Mrs. Futrelle. who was born nnd
reared In Atlanta, makts no claim to
! being "literary."
"I despise the word." the says. "I
1 merely attempt lo tail a story now and
j then.
• When Mr. Futrelle was In newspa-
I per work I learned what a 'sto-v' v a.-,
and now I can't help aeelng them. And
j when a story comes to me. I rlt down
I nnd tell ll In ea few wonts as possible."
I Your student of literature will tell
I you that constitutes the height of style,
j Since each has achieved such sue-
i cess In story writing. It wool I seem
.natural that Mr. end Mrs. I'utrelie
: Should cnUaborale In thslr work, as
i Agnes amPKgerton t'aatle and the Wtl-
1 damsons have done. Rut their collali-
.oration extends no further than 'lie tils-
