TROLLOPE'S ADVICE

TROLLOPE, who made a large in come for many years by writing, began in this way. He advised all young Writers to follow his example and there are many who have succeeded in building up their own separate or private business in this way, but there are not enough.
GREAT OPPORTUNITIES EVERY DAY nVER 1,300 Daily and Weekly Newspapers, and more than 2,000 magazines and periodicals in Great Britain alone, means at least 100,000 separate issues per year requiring entries, stories, ctc., a large proportion of which has to be fret-lance work. Here are immense and permanent markets for capable Writers, with opportunities never greater than now-new publications appearing, the public reading more than ever, and British Editors constantly on the look-out for new Writers. Anyone of average education and ability, willing to learn the technique of preparing written matter in saleable form, has great opportunities of profitable and continuous sparetime employment, which can lead to well-paid and full-time occupation.
