TWO WRITER'S or BIOGRAPHY.
Johnson and Boswell Exponents o
Different Schools.

It is an interesting fact in the his.
tory of literary genres that two of
the great examples of biographical
writing occur almost side by side.
Less than a decade separates tho com.
pletion of Johnson's Lives of the
Poets''-happily honored in the new
edition of the late DR.. Birkbock Hill
from tho publication of his own life
by Boswell. Yet with the latter book
a new type of biography came into
being. Johnson, in the main, had,
like most Of his predecessors, fol-
lowed a simple narrative and exposi-
tory method, prefxing plain story
of the poets life to systematic &C.
count of his character and a critical
estimate of. his works; he gathered
his facts and impressions together
and spoke for the author and for him
self. Boswell, on the other hand,
making use of a more dramatic
method, succeeded in his attempt to
let the author reveal himself, and, In.
stead Of an exposition of character,
painted a picture of personality, to
which his own comments were sub
ordinate. What we see as a type OF
mind and character in Johnson's work
we see as a living man in Boswell

TOLD IN METRIC TERMS.
Academy Of the Middle West Uses New
System in It's Field and
Track Meet.

There is growing use in this coun-
try of the metric system of weights
and measures. Many commercial
houses in the east and a number of
the colleges there have adopted the
system, and eventually it is expected
that the many standards now in COM
mon use in the United States will
give place to the more simple, exact
and scientific one-standard of the
metric system. At the suggestion of
Mr.. S. w. Stratton there is one acad-
envy in the middle west that has
adopted the system and this year
used it in it's field and track meet.
This is the academy of the University
of Chicago at Morgan Park, and this
is the way the record of Its inter
hall contest reads. Any of our read.

For the second trick leave the up
per end of the lighter open instead of
folding it down, and hold the lighter
at that end to prevent it from unroll-
ing. Now light the lower end, and
the fame will move upward, no flame
remaining at the charred end. In
stead, the smoke will pour out of the
upper, open end, and it may be lighted
there, as before it was at the lower
end, like gas.
If you will now repeat this last trick,
at the same time holding the charred
end over the mouth of a wide mouthed
bottle, and watch for the moment
when the smoke begins to pour out
of the upper end, third experiment
may be made.
AS you see the smoke streaming
out, pinch the upper end, and it will
be forced back and will issue out of
the lower, charred end without burn.

fill. If you touch flame to the smoke
in the bottle, it will ignite with sud
den flash.
In the way just described, fill a bot
tie with smoke, and cover it, letting it
subside. Repeat this, filling the bottle
and letting the smoke subside for
seven or eight times. You will find,
as a result, a collection of several
drops of yellow liquid. Now heat these
drops over fame on tin space box,
and smoke will again be produced that
you may burn as before.

SMOKE THAT BURNS.
A Series of Tricks Which Can Be Per
formed with Paper Lighters
and a Bottle,


Not so very long ago, before matches
were quite so common as they are
now, and, indeed, in some country
places to-day lamp-lighters are used
for lighting lamps and candles, and
even gas jets. They are made of strips
of newspaper ABOUT 10 inches long
and one and half inches wide, which
are made into rather close rolls, be.
ginning at one corner. The end last
finished is turned over to prevent the
strip from unrolling, and when the
lighter is needed for the purpose in
tended it is lighted at fire.
Make number of these lighters,
and then try these few tricks with
them, keeping away from drafts while
so doing, and having scuttle or a
dish of water near by in which to drop
them when charred:
Hold one of the lighters in a slant
ing position, with the end farthest
from your hand pointing downward,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. Light
the lower end, and as the flame burns
upward, tongue of fame will remain
burning at the lower charred end.
If you blow this flame out, leaving
the upper one still burning, a stream
of smoke will take the place of the ex'

PHYSICIAN SAYS
Children Thrive on Grape Nuts and
Cream.

A Mass. physician has found a cure
for constipation in children - citing
fifteen cases by feeding them Grape
Nuts.
Some time ago." he writes, II be-
came interested in your food, Grape
Nuts, as cure for constipation in
children. Having tried it in my own
family, I have advised it in fifteen
cases in which all suffered with con-
.lipation more or less severe. The re.
suit has been absolute relief in all.
II write this that other children
may be benefited"
How much better it is thus to bring
about healthy action in the bowels
of growing children by natural means,
than to feed them with improper food,
requiring some kind of cathartic at
intervals to overcome constipation.
Grape-Nuts gives energy to the en-.
tire nervous system including the
nerves that cause the natural con.
traction and relaxation of the bowel
muscles, that propel the food mass
along.
1t is predigested also, and the blood
easily absorbs the food as it goes
through the body, storing up vitality
and force for the functions of all the
organs.
Children especially, should get the
right start as to habits Of living.
They should grow into bright, strong.
cheerful men and women. Grape-Nuts
solve the question of the start: a
wholesome appetite will do the rest.
Children's teeth are benefited By
chewing Grape-Nuts, also. Your dent
list will tell you that a certain amount
Of exercise In chewing firm food, is
necessary to grow strong; beautiful

Teeth need exercise just the same
as muscles. IL they are to grow
strong and firm as nature intended.

also gives material from which good
