F INSPIRED BY ROTTEN APPLES. I —__.—____--—_—_.. THE WAYS OF GENIUS. Greig, the musician, when about to compose, would first nieinorise the words \‘\'hO‘.\'Q nieanings he wished to express by rcunols. “I require several -days to lnat my head,” he once said; “then I lose my appetite, my‘ eyes become illflaiiied, and ithc imagination is stimulated. 'l.‘llen I compose an opera in three \'.'eeks." ‘Most pecple will agree that work produced under such. conditions deserves I to succeed. Edgar Allen Poe was in the habit of drinking brandy for the same ‘purpose. Voltaire went in for e.oflTee, and dc.-._Musset for :1 mi.\:ture of beer and absinthe.

Lecky, the historian, modified the method; he used to kneel upon a specially constructed sofa, and write upon the head of it, so"t'llat the line between ‘the head and the lieart. was horizontal, and the blood flow thereby aided. The same result was sedured much more comfortably by Swincburne, who used to write} while lying on the floor. I In contrast to these Victor }-lugoi always stood upright at his desk. Her-ii bert Spencer used to utilise physical‘ exercise, perhaps the best method of‘ all. After rowing. or playing with! ball for a time, he would sit down andi dictate. Later he would ‘try more] exercise. and so on. i
