There Is no mistaking the house, near where Timothy Woodruff used to live, be cause it is the only house on th block that has a stalncd-glas front door. Miss Llbbey is modest, also generous. "I have been so tremendously successful as novelist," she said, "that I should be willing now to stand back and give oth rs a chance. If we who have been so suc cessful should continue to write all our lives how could others get their work bo fare tho public?" And right here there was the usual "I pause for reply."

Then she gave her secret of writing stories which so abundantly opened the floodgates of tear and gold. "You must know that when one sits down to write one must have at least some no tion of a plot. Often I begin by writing some kind of a conversation, however. Then somebody answers back, and then 1 have to say some more and fill It all In. That's the way I write a novel." Simple, quite simple. Mlts Llbbey believes that if she had it to do over again she could improve on some of the titles. For instance, there is "Don't Judge Her Too Harshly Until You Know Her Sad Love Story." That might be con densed some without hurting It. Then an other drawn-out moan is "beautiful Chris tie, thd Pride ot My Heart." Christie is a young woman of extreme virtue.

Hearken to the words of her hated rival as she sprang nearer to Doris, white with wrath, her eyes fairly blazing as they rested upon the girl who had come between her and Frederick Thornton's love. "Let it he one bitter drop of disappoint ment In your cup of triumph to know that the man you have so cunningly entrapped does not nor never will love you, for his heart Is mine. Do you hear, Doris Bran don? His heart is mine!" It does no harm to recall some of the burning words from Miss Llbbey's pen.
