THE check which Marian received for the newspaper narrative she had . written about her - heroic but futile hunt for a job made her resolve to become a writer She had rushed a number of copies of the printed article into the mails, dispatching them to Ann Stewart, the artist; her brother. and several others. She had asked these people for criticisms of her maiden effort at literature, with the proud feeling of a full-fledged author. There is a - mysterious, thrilling, uplifting inspiration in seeing one's written la bors in print for the first time. It injects a virus into the blood which in. toxicates the subject with boiling am bition. Marian's friends at the boarding- house, the Barkers, were sincere and laudatory in their comments on Mari an's newspaper tale. "I knew you had it in you," said Bert. "I had a feeling that you had writing talent the moment I laid eyes on you. What you ought to do is to break into the magazines. Try fiction. The public eats it up. Here in New York you're in the center of fiction's universe. One of these days you'll be dashing off the great Ameri can novel." Already a subtle. Indefinable change had begun to take place in Marian. She was beginning to observe life about her with a more seeing eye. Details, colors, shades, the roaring city, its crowds, the moods of its various thor oughfares, began to make new and deep-sinking impressions upon her. In the revolving chaos of sensations she managed to catch now and again a gleam of literary posibillties. As she observed the city's life, and strove to reduce its impressive ebb and flow into adequate word and phrase, she felt both the inspiration and the vastness of the job ahead of her and the maeger ness of her training for carrying it out. Yet the definite consciousness of work to do stirred and stimulated her. She began haunting the book shops and news stands. She bought some of the popular magazines, and dug into their vitals in an effort to discover how the trick of writing magazine stories was done. She was amazed to find that even the cheaper magazines which she had always scorned con tained the work of unquestionable merit, striking in plot, and vivid in portrayal of life. "The way to write is to write," kept circling through her mind. Somewhere she had heard the phrase. It laid hold of her and would not let go. Hour after hour she would toil at the shaky table In her little room. Un trained in the task of evolving a story in her mind complete, before attempt ing to put it on paper, she undertook rambling beginnings, hoping desper ately that she would somehow suc ceed in fighting her way on through a maze of words and sentences to a log ical conclusion. She wrote and destroyed, wrote and is the The Shredded Wheat Company, tore up. Many times she saw her pen through the tears of chagrin. "How do the rest of them do it?" she wondered in bursts of depression. Again and again her mind traveled back to the night on which she had written the letter to her brother, de tailing her employment-seeking ex periences, later to convert it into a newspaper article destined to see Drint. the front page, and widespread circu lation. She strove to analyze the meth od by which she had reached the goal on that occasion. She could not do so. All she knew was that Impressions had flowed red-hot from her brain to- her pen. She had been able to write be cause she had lived and endured those particular experiences. Her later ef forts were calculated, cool and me chanical. It began to dawn upon her that she would have to write about herself. She would have to transfer her inner self, its secrets and its woes, upon the writ ing pad. She trembled before the stern requirement, but she could see no other way. (Tomorrow Marian Peddles Her Wares.) r TZlks On DOMESriCSCIFNCE B-oe Potpourri. PORTLAND. May. 27. Will you be kind enough to publish in the columns of Th. uregoman a recipe for making rose leaf potpourri and oblige? A- F. M YOU do not say whether you want a dry potpourri for sachet pur poses or a moist or semi-moist product for a rose jar. The latter is the easier. Many varieties are possible, personal taste being the deciding factor. The following recipes are inherited ones that have been found satisfactory for several generations. Potpourri No. 1 Dry very thorough ly fresh fragrant rose petals (the old- fashioned "damask" or Jacqueminot roses are best) as quickly as possible in the sun or drying oven. Rub and crush them and arrange in a rose Jar with alternate layers of salt and spices. using one-fourth cup salt, one teaspoon whole cloves, two inches paper bark cinnamon, one teaspoon alsplce berries, a few bits of mace and a few bits of sandalwood (obtainable at Japanese stores) to two cups dry crushed rose petals and one-third cup dried rose geranium, lemon verbena, "balm" or other sweet scented leaves. Orris root may be added at discretion and a few strips of dried and crushed yellow lemon or orange rind. Pour on three tablespoons be "Eau de Cologne"; cover tightly and leave three months before opening. Moist Potpourri Partly dry fresh, fragrant rose petals. To two quarts half dry petals allow two cups (mixed) half-dry sweet balm, lemon verbena, rose geranium, bay leaves, heliotrope, white Jasmine, clove carnation petals and violet petals (gathered as they come into blossom). Pack in layers in a crock or jar with a close lid, together with two-thirds cup mixed stick cin namon, whole cloves, mace, orris root. yellow lemon rind, orange rind and sandalwood. Use two tablespoons salt to every quart. Keep covered in a cool place, stirring as each of the ingredi ents is added until all are in. Then pack into regular "rose Jars." sprin kling with very strong vinegar or pure alcohol between the layers. You will need about one cup of vinegar or al cohol to every quart of the mixture. Cover the Jars tightly, scaling around the crack with a little parafine. Do not open the jars for at least a month. A simpler but much less fragrant potpourri may be made by using only rose petals, salt and spices, as above, and omitting the other ingredients. Roman Meal Cookies Sold. PORTLAND. Or., Juno 1 At one time when business was dull I tided myself over the dull season by baking Roman meal cookies. I had never cooked before so was timid about submitting my sample, but I was successful in get ting the contract with a firm which was demonstrating this Roman meal. I kept the demonstrators supplied with samples so had to bake these cookies twice or three times a week. Beside these regular orders every week. I would sometimes have extra orders calling for as much as S4 worth in one day. I also sold these cookies through the , day you start with a breakfast of .hreddect -Wheat BIseiil and Strawberries A return to this simple, wholesome, nourishing diet after a season of heavy foods means renewed mental and physical vigor a clearing of the cobwebs from the brain.

I baked these cookies in the early mornings before the heat of the day. I thoroughly enjoyed this work, which was not a tax on my strength, and was surprised at the money I made. These cookies are nutritious, as well as a mild laxative, and are delicious. The following is the recipe: One cup sugar, one-half cup butter, one-third pound raisins, two eggs, one teaspoon ful cinnamon, one teaspoonful soda dissolved in hot water, one cup white flour, one and one-third cups Roman meal.

There is nothing that will more quickly ruin a good complexion than the habit of drinking Ice cream soda, carbonated drinks, or iced drinks of any kind. Your body needs a lot of moisture during warm weather, I know. How ever, there are so many good, harm less, nourishing drinks you may have that there is really little need to re sort to drinking injurious stuff. Never drink iced water.' Rather, let it stand a moment or two until it warms up a bit. Iced water will chill your stomach and prevent the proper digestion of your food. , Lemonade is always good for you, if it is not too cold. Buttermilk also Is a good hot weather drink and has the value of being sufficiently tart to quench thirst. Iced tea, made very weak, and with lemon and sugar in it, is a good Sum mer drink, provided you let it stand as I have suggested, long enough to warm a little. Plain cold water is, of course, best of all drinks, but it grows tiresome. But the wise woman will refrain from soda fountain drinks and soda fountain mixtures. Ice cream is never good because It chills the stomach, though I realize It is nearly Impos sible to persuade anyone to give it up.

PROSECUTOR IS SCORED Conrad Krebs in Open Ivetter Asks Removal of Mr. Kin go. In an open letter addressed to Gov ernor "West yesterday, Conrad Krebs requested that District Attorney Ringo. of Ealem, be removed from office on the grounds of Incompetency. Recently Mr. Krebs was indicted on a charge of perjury and was- acquitted Friday. "I have had two trials," ha says In the letter. "At the first trial I in structed my attorneys to take every Juror without objection regardless of who or what he might be. The Jury disagreed. It was reported by one of the Jurors that a prohibition fellow Juror remarked during the delibera tion. Hop men are bad and should be In Jail. At my second trial we selected an intelligent Jury and on the first bal lot I was acquitted." Mr. Krebs in his letter offers to do nate $2000 to any charitable institution of Oregon if five Judges of the Supreme Court find one sentence of perjury in the evidence on which the indictment was based, providing Governor West will agree to remove Mr. Ringo from office if Mr. Krebs' contention is sus tained.
