Presidents Who We're Writers.

The writings of the presidents of
the United States have been collect
ed by the industry Of historians in
to imposing sets Of volumes that
fill many feet of shelving in our large
libraries. No five foot shelf" of
culture could accomodate more than
small fraction of these books. Most
of their contents, to be sure, OBJ
serves the Dial, are innocent of the
tinctures Of letters, and we know how
Charles Lamb would have classified
them The works of Madison and
of Polk and of Buchanan and of Nc
Kinley may not even remotely be
associated with literature, and are
valuable only for ~ their biographers
and the historians of their periods.
But in the Sahara of the mass of pres
idential writings there are scattered
GASES for the readers refreshment.
In the recorded words of Washington
and Jefferson there Is something
iHOTt near uldltli idl lOI ulSlOIs. lutIC
are passages which strike the human
note, and have the validity of lit
erature because they transcend the
conditions under which they we're
produced. The writings of Lincoln
contains purple patches of wisdom,
adorned with style for which nothing
less than the inspiration Of genius
can account. The epic Of the civil
war, as unfolded in Grants memo
ries, was awarded very high praise
for it's purely literary value by no
less a critic than Matthew Arnold.
The volume of Mr.. Roosevelt's writ
ings is so great as to give their au-
thor a recognized place in American
literature and win for him a place
in the Academy of Arts and Letters.
President Wilson, the Dial concludes,
is a man Of letters in a more abso-
Lutte sense than any Of his predeces-

Things to Forget.

A leader of men, marching fearless

And you know of a tale whose mere
telling aloud
Would cause his proud head to in
anguishe lie bowed,
It's aprettygood plan to forget it.
If you know of a skeleton hidden
away in a closet, and guarded,
and kept from the day
In the dark; and whose showing, and
sudden display
Would cause grief and sorrow and
lifelong dismay,
Its a pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of a thing that will
darken the joy
OF a man, or a woman, a girl or a

That will wipe out a smile,or the
least way annoy
A fellow, or cause anygladness to

Youngstown, o., April 29.-James
Tuttle. aged 27. employed as farm
hand on the Perkins farm near Kins-
man, sought to save distance by
crossing the fields on his return from
the village last evening with a can
of oil.
When on the edge of the woods he
was set upon by two unknown men,
according to Tuttle's story. the oil
poured over his clothing and set
afire. Robbery was not the motive for
the crime, as nothing was taken from
him.
The man is in Warren Hospital
with terrible burns all over his body,
and is in a critical condition.

Mystery of Sleep.

Sleep, in which we spend about third of our lives, continues to be one of the mysteries of biology, despite the attempts of scientists to find so- lution. Dr. Raphael Dubois of Mar seilles, after prolonged series of ex- periments on hibernating animals, has come to the conclusion that sleep is due to antitoxin or poisoning by cer- tain waste products, which accumu- late in the brain, and are only got rid of by sleep. Dr. Claparede of Ge- neva thinks that sleep is an instinct devised for the protection of the or ganism. It was Dr. Ramon y Cajal who formulated the neurotic theory, according to which the neutrones or pyramidal cells in the gray matter of the brain sink down and cease to ex- cite each other during sleep.
 But there are objections to these theories, and all others that have been advanced. It is matter of absolute knowledge that in sleep there is a certain absence of blood in the brain. Anything that lessens the SUD- ply of blood to the brain is likely to induce sleep For this reason, keep ing the head cool and the feet warm is recommended as one of the best means of oyercrowding sleeplessness. Absence of light, noise and strong odors help to produce the loss of con sciousness, which is the chief charac- teristic of true sleep

FACE UNSECURED WITH
 SKIN TROUBLE

3107 Foster Ave, Baltimore, Md About five months ago little blisters appeared on my face. They looked like blisters from fire burns. They itched and burned something terrible, which caused me to rub them and they burst, then sores appeared which dis figured my face. My face was all full of sores. The disease spread from my face to my nec and back. When any thing touched them they would burn and stick to my clothes, which kept me from sleeping and made me suf- fer terribly.

FRANZ JOSEF'S KIND HEART
Little Incident That May Explain Why Ruler of Austria Is Loved by
 His Sub iects.

Sense of humor is another strong trait of Emperor Franz Josef. One day, unannounced, franz Josef visited the military academy at Wiener-Neustadt, entered classroom and, saying to the officer hearing recitation: Don't let me disturb you" took a seat. On the bench behind him he put his generals hat, crowned with it's bush of long straight feathers. A boy eyed the green plumes, then slyly stretched his hand out and plucked one Emboldened by success, he took four, and would have taken the rest had he not touched his emperor's arm in the process.
 What are you doing that for?" asked Franz Josef, viewing the de- pleted bunch.
 For souvenir,' the boy stuttered.
 But why so many?"
 My comrades would each want one, too," was the frank response.
 Well, l suppose there is no way out of it but to give you the whole lot, said the emperor, by this time laugh ing heartily as he tore loose the bush Turning to the teacher, whose frown of horror had been lost on the small boy, his majesty remarked, But, cap tain, you must kindly lend me your cay to go home in.
