Gibson"; unterhalb der Darstellung links bezeichnet: "COPYRIGHT, 1899, BY LIFE PUBLISHING CO."; unterhalb davon in der Mitte bezeichnet: "Enthusiastic Young Miss: TO THINK OF YOUR BEING A REAL LITERARY MAN! I DO SO LONG TO KNOW / HOW YOU WRITE THINGS. CAN YOU EXPLAIN IT? / Venerable Hack: IT IS THE SIMPLEST THING. YOU HAVE A MIND SUITABLY PREPARED. YOU GET AN / IDEA. THE IDEA BEING INTRODUCED INTO THE MIND CAUSES FERMENTATION, DURING WHICH A SCUM RISES TO / THE TOP AND IS CAREFULLY REMOVED, LEAVING A RESIDUE OF CLEAR THOUGHT. THIS YOU BOTTLE UP FOR / YOUR OWN USE. THE SCUM YOU SELL TO A PUBLISHER."
