“She will take advice from you. She

Madame Sylva promised to “test

The season's saddest story.

been trying to get tickets for “Art-

called him up.

WHAT NOW EARN. _.
It is flattering to be asked to
give advice to a young man about
to enter this or that form of gain-
fur occupation. Usually it is your
own line of work that is thus sub-
:lected to the critical analysis of
your opinion as to its opportunities.
Says ' the Hartford Courant.
Usually you gravely warn the 'en-
thusiastic youth to enter some other
field. In this you probablyAare able
to create the impression that though
great talents. talents. in fact. that
can be classed but little below
’genlous. it below at all. have made
your own career at least moderate-
ly successful. the chances for any.
but the great_ strong, almost super-
man person to gain there a footing
are slight indeed. It is a splendid
tonic for self respect and a. subtle
dose of self administered flattery..
" But at times the person thus ‘im:
portuned regarded the probable
prizes ahead is unkind enough to
fortify himself with statistics that
muit act as exceedingly wet blank-
ets upon the person who applies for
advice. The youth eager to be a
writeiuof friction should not take his
case to the author who had recent-
ly read the "London Daily Mail's"
article on what novelists earn. He
would leave convinced that the ma?
Jority of writers are not drawing li'ln-
anciai prizes and he might suspect
that unless he could assure himself
of a least a certain though small
income from other sources he might
possibly be several years in the bus-
ncss of writing and publishing
novels before he was able to gratify
his dreams of world travel on an ex,-
pensive scale or town and country
houses where the entertainment
would be not only intellectual but
of sufficient elegance to attract
other great minds to enjoy his hos-
vitality.
The "Daily Mail" does not soften
the sad news with preliminary pap.
It says at the very start that con-
trary to popular belief novelists as

he has been in his autobiography.
singularly frank about the amount
of money he received from each of
his books and. the sums we con-.
siderable though they did do make
him a millionaire.
. The writer in the “Mail" ”takes
the case of the author of a‘ best
seller who contracts with his pub-
lisher on a. royalty basis. On every
copy of his novels sold he, receives
“So should there be sold 80.000jcopies
of a book selling in England for
7 shillings 10 pence, he would not
about $15. 000. But this would be
only part of his earnings for the
American sales could be ‘counted
upon to return him a considerable
sum since most novels that are best
sellers in England do well here; and
he might also receive something for
serial rights. filmseand drhxnatlc
rights. and cheap popular editions.’
So the author of an English' best,
seller could reasonably count on
clearing at least $25. 000 on. a novel.
The writer says that if the novelist;
is industrious and productive he'
will write two novels 8. year, and he
would write three a year but due

hears" This does not sound so bad.
Unfortunately the statement follows
that very few authors make 560.000
9. year. In fact the number is
placed very close to the figure that

It is said that there are probably
from thirty to forty British writers
who make considerably more than
55.000 a year. but that most of the
a class are both hard working and
poor. It quotes Dr.
Anthony Trollope as having em.
