On Approaching Those Editors# HINT S TO A. i IATEUI l WRITERS.


From an amateur wTiter's point of view, «n


editor is an inconiprolienfiiblc l>cing who rejecta MSS. witli univirdonablo persistency, and seeming iiidifTereiieo to the amount you arc wa.sting m posUgo stamps, etc. V.diy, you may .s:iy, are editor.s so blind to tlic merits of your work? I /5t U.S cou-sider first wliat an cditor’.s work in:iy be. Even among ]>ropcr*y jireiiarcd MSS., an editor Las to decide which is best suited to his imbvulual l>apcr, alfout wliich ho h;i.‘<, aiul^'ery iTTojicrly. iha own notions and ideas. Now, an article may be well wr i t ten, and yet not be the tiling lie wishes for Jiis p.t])cr, altliongli it might be tlio very 1-liing


dc-sired for another. Would you ask a jeweilor to buy a |.»icco of


cloth Ixscausc you wanted money for vliai cloth? He would curtly inform you tliat it was not in hi.s lino of bii.sincss ; th a t iic L


’ould make no use of it.


In the same way witli an editor, you surely would not cxi>ect the edi tor of a roli^dous monthly 1o accept articles of the “ I ’linch ” and “ 'J it-bit.-* class, or the conductor <if a staiimdi Conservative daily to pay for arlicle.s of a pronounced Iabei*al tone? No, no. Send your fat o.v to llie butcher, Olid vour grain to the corn nierchaut. When an editor rejects ymir .MS., do not icnd it

Much of any “ fi-os1me.‘w ” i t ever may liavo possc.s.scd will have gone. Few articles will boar a second rGuling, and not fall in tho


reader s estimation. When you do succeed in selling .something hmd

L^.n T wicu. Answered His Own Letter. _ _ On Successful g Baking.


When you have taken time and trouble in making some scones or tea-cakes, how pleasant


to be


^ ^ ^


rewarded by the apprecia­ tion of your family and guests. But, alas, how often docs the baking prove disappointing 1 Now, if you would use one part of “ Paisley Flour ” to six or eight parts ot ordinary flour, instead of yeast or baking pow‘der, you could rely on a successful result —the most wholesome and deliciously flavoured scones and cakes. “ Paisley Flo^r” has made many converts to home-baking. It only wants a (rial. Try it next baking day.
