Tries Fire by Friction.
"One thing' that interested Smith
particularly was making fire by fric-
tion, He tried' this first with a home-
made set copied from a sketch. It
took him at least five minutes to make
his first fire. His lack of,experience
was one trouble, of course, and the
kind of wood he used was another.
The boy began experimenting with
1 wood. This research claimed part of
his leisure ..for three years, and . he.
tried out various' materials for bows,

Why Darkness is An Aid to
Sleep.
Darkness is a big factor in induc-
ing sleep because it is difficult to keep
the eyes open in the dark. Waking is
not -normally possible Without thought.
The fatigue products' of the body,
scientists explain, are concentrated in
the brain, and the, Iatter gradually
dulls and becomes sluggish.
When scientists speak of how "fast"
a person sleeps they mean. how deep
Is his sleep. Not only is it possible
to measure sleep, `but there are dif-
ferent means of doing so. One method
is by dropping a steel ball. The ball
Is dropped at. increasing distances—
four, six, eight, :ten,- twelve inches,
and so on -until the sleeper becomes
conscious of the sound and awakens.
In this way scientists can find out how
"deep" was his sleep. Another .meth-
od is to touch the sleeper 'with an
electric wire noting the intensity of
the current used. ,
At a certain trine each night y
else in all Scoutdom.
• "A college career wasa plan par-
titularly cherished by this boy. Scout
has brought that, too. When other
Scouts saw Smith make fire by fric-
tion they .wished to do the same. They
examined' his fire -making outfit and
asked questions about it. He assured
them that there was no magic in it.
They insisted that he make sets for
them. He began doing this. Scout-
masters around the obnntry wrote to
him for a: dozen sets; then a hundred
or more. Eventually` he had a fire -
outfit business that brought money
for the cherished college course. He
is now in his second Yearof college
work. • More and more Scouts are us-
ing his sets because they: will make
fire. He furnished the sets that went
overseas with the American Jamboree
Troop last summer. He thinks he can
see the rest of his college course com-
ing to hila ethrough hisScouting•"
Choosing aTitle. .
. All peerages are, strictly, territorial,
being relics of feudal days when a
man was summoned' to the Parliament,
of his King as a baron or earl in virtue
of the land he held and the retainers
he kept.: The retainers and their mas-
ters gathered from the ends of the
realm constituted the King's. army.
Nowadays, even when, a Mr. Brown
is created a peer and ,calls himself
Lord Brown, he is known officially as
Baron Brown of Putney, for example.
He cannot support the dignity of his
coronet without standing on an imag-
inary.fief which he Is supposed to hold
from his King.
Thus peerages which have become
net in fact:. exist, always :in a, shad.
land of romance, waiting for the
g to appoint fresh 'holders. One
see is the Earldom of Oxford,
Mr. Asquith will. probably as-

Many men wish, not unnaturally, to
,perpetuate their -names in their titles;,

out exception ,py soldier peel's Rob-
erts of Kandahar, Kitchener of Ithar-
touni, Napier of Magdada, Haig of

The most curious instance of this is
