VERNE’S SIMPLE LIFE
OPULAR WRITER IN NO SENSE
A MONEY SEEKER.
Keiured of a Moderate Income, He
Was Satisfied to Give the World
the Best of Which He Was Capable
—Lesson in His Life.
The death of Jules Verne, ai the age
f seventy-seven years, will be felt
a personal loss by millions of read*
r. throughout the world, for some of
■ stories have been translated so
' idely that he may be said to have
rid. in the true sense of the expre*-
'•< n, un International audience. Liv
ing for the most pan away Irora the
hurry and hustle of affairs yet by
occasional travel or visit keeping in
touch with them—though cateful not
to be absorbed thereby—Jules Verne
worked on steadily, year after year,
anting money sufficient for his
needs, accomplishing his literacy pur
pose. enjoying personally a normally,
«ane existence which, to onlookers,
scented to approach the ideal for an
author.
Quite recently, referring to the es
tale left by the late Lew Wallace, we
mentioned the general understanding
hat it was derived principally from
th£ book and dramatic royalties of a
single work of fiction. The reverse Is
true of Jules Verne, who. if current
gossip be accepted, contracted nearly
forty y >ars ago to produce two books
a year receiving for each one the'
equlve tof $2,000. A question that
at once suggests itself is whether
Gen. Wallace would have striven,
year after year, to write other and
even better books than that which
made him famous had he sold this one
outright for a comparatively small
sum. and whether Jules Verne would
have continued his marvelous produc
tiveness had he received a consider
able fortune in royalties from any of
his first books.
This, of course, is a question not
to be answered definitely. Under the
spur of financial need Gen. Wallace
might have written a long list of ex
cellent books. Furthermore had
Jules Verne been enriched in his parly
thirties through sales o f Ks first
“scientific” novel, “Five Weeks In a
Balloon.” it is possible that the world
might never have had Its “Twenty
Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.”
or “Around the World In Eighty
Days." But those who have been In
terested by Verne’s wonderfully in
genious tales do not like to think of
such a possibility. To them he was
energy personified, the father of in
vention realized, an ever-bubbling,
sparkling, joyous fountain of youthful
spirits and hope, even la old age.
That he worked well under arrange
ment with a publisher whereby he
received' a moderate but regular in
come his career attests, and he Is not
alone in this. One of the most suc
cessful of American writers for boys
—at least from the boys’ standpoint,
and from the publisher’s—worked un
der similar contract for nearly a gen
eration. excepting that he received
SI,OOO for each book produced.
We fancy that some of the younger
American writers—yachting In thf
Mediterranean, speeding along Fifth
avenue in a SIO,OOO motor car. build
ing castles in Newport, Spain, and
elsewhere—may think of Jules Verne
as doubtless they have thought of
Milton; or. if they never heard of
Paradise Lost." as they have thought
of Hawthorne. Thoreau, Emerson. One
can imagine them saying, with a sym
pathetic shake of the head. “Poor old
chap! Grinding away nearly sixty
years lor a beggarly four thou’! Won
der why the dickens he didn’t try ‘ad.’
writing or put the blacksmith joke?
| together for the ten-twent’-ihlrt’
shows They pay pretty well."
It might be worth while for these
young persons to reflect that Jules
Verne and some of the others men
' Honed, were of snch caliber that they
• did not have to possess fortunes in
order to be great men as well as
highly successful writers - New York

A Fine Variety.
‘I was eating my cupper the otter
evening in a little Kentucky hotel,
said A. B. Con*a>. a: the Willard ha
te’ last night, “when a neatly dresseu
country girl, who was waiting on the
table. came up and a.'ked if I wruld
have dessert. I inquired what kind
of de>sert she had, and she replied:
• ‘We have pie.’
• *Tou may bring me a pie.'
I said, and she inqulrra;
“ What kind do you want?
• ‘What kinds have yen?"
“ ‘We have three kinds—open top,
cross-barred and klvered. but they are
all apple.’ she said, apparently very
proud of having so wide a variety for
rne to select from.*’—Louisville (Ve
rier Journal.
