eroD,rs ABOUT FAMOUS PEOPLE

A-'' o. ;In,isTRY, CULTURE AND GENIUS. By
s,arm. Smiles. IL d. 12ms. PIP A4s' harper
rr Smiles has written. compiled, this vol
proo. on thc Iirts OF Sclf-!lcp' and Character
II s . curious and interesting collection OF anec-
dotcs ard various information about celebrated
men ald women, illustrating various human ten
denotes and foblcs, the general drift OF the COM
men; being sound and wholesome. The author
has chsptc.s ON "The Man and Gentleman
"Great Men-Ercat Workers Great Young
Men, Great Old Men, Lineage OF Talent and
Genius, "The Literary Aiiment Over Brain
WORK Health and Hobbies Town and Coun-
try Life etc and he is able 80 present unlimited
testimony to the not absolutely novel fact that
men and women have achieved greatness and ac-
compl shed prodigious labors under every con-
cciyab,e condition. Instances plentiful Of
genius developing late in life Of genius developing
early in hfe of the wonderful things achieved by
sound minds In sound bodies Of the equally won
dcrful things done by sound minds in unsound
bodies: nay sometimes when ne1ther tne MINUS
nor the bodies were sound.
The Illustrations brought together by the In
gcnious and industrious Doctor indeed Of such
varying significance that the youthful reader who
seeks guidance In the path Of ambition might
easily become perplexed. and possibly end by
doubling whether for the purposes Of future
greatness It were better to suffer from govt, dys-
pepsia, headache, liver complaint and other
diseases Of the sedentary life to be entirely free
from such unpleasant stimulants. For though the
advantages Of physical health are duly displayed
and insisted upon. the cases of marked success IN
life despite its deprivation are 80 numerous as
somewhat to neutralze the effect Of the good
advice As q matter Of fact however, the con-
clusion will probably be arrived at that the ma
jority Of men who have important work to do pay
little OF no attention to the question OF health
and that enoouragingy large proportion seem
to get on pretty well. notwithstanding. No doubt
on q priori grounds the men of genius who
neglect their health ought to become melancholy
examples; and some of them certainly do But
genius in a sense takes care Of its own, and is
often able to surmount physical hindrances in
remarkable way DR. Smiless book is written in
his Characteristic smooth and fluent STYLE and 1t
is so full of interest and varied experience that
reader who takes 1t up is likely TO put 1t down
again until he has reached the last page.

FOR LITTLE BATHERS.
Some Instructions in The 'Knack' of
Learning to Swim.

Self-support in the water is so
easily accomplished that children
who are old enough to bathe alone
in ponds or at the seaside should
have the ''knack" of it explained
until they thoroughly and unmis-
takably understand it and have
practiced it sufficiently in charge
of their elders to give them a sense
of assurance and self-reliance
when alone. 1t is not generally
known that finger laid upon any
floating object, like a log, an over
turned boat, or even an oar, will
sustain the body in smooth water
sufficiently for the head to be kept
for breathing and seeing. Many
persons are drowned because they
exert themselves wildly when
thrown into the water suddenly,
yet a boat half filled with water, or
with even little more than the gun
wales above the surface, will sup
port as many persons as can get
their hands on it, if they behave
quietly. A person of perfect self
possession, though not knowing
how to swim, would, in cases of
accident, stand a much better
chance of life by resolving to re-
main perfectly motionless, with
such support. and call until help
came, than would an expert swim
mer who should "lose his head"
and founder around until his
strength was exhausted.
In this, as in many other things,
the best way to instruct a little
child is by telling story involv-
ing such scenes as is desired to
impress upon the listener, followed
later by other stories calculated to
reach the same end, until the the
ory is firmly fixed in the child's
mind; then, when opportunities for
practical application come, to
make the most of them. In no
case should fear of the water be
allowed to impress itself, except
such as is based on the swimmers
own reeklessness or carelessness.
There is no knowing how soon the
occasion may come when parents
will be unspeakably thankful for
having cultivated habit of self
possession IN their children at an
early age. ...
The ability to float on the back,
with no support, yet keeping the
chin above water, is not so easily
acquired, yet it is surprising how
many boys and girls do acqnire it
at very early age. In this, how
ever, much depends upon the size
of the chest capacity relatively to
the total weight of the body, as we'll
as the set of the head on the sheul-
ders, and there are some who can
not learn to float.--From Baby
