BLANCHARD Upholsterer ptmE Decorator PHONE IIS CALVIN THE SILENT The first biography of Calvin Cool-idge, twenty-ninth Vice President of the United States, i out. It is published by the Roosevelt Club of Massachusetts "for its but it already eagerly called for all over the United States; it is really for everybody, including posterity. As it is "edited which in this case means written by Robert M. Washburn, it is necessarily an original document. Its aim is evident to present the subject just as be actually appears to give his history, bnefiy but vividly, exactly as he has lived it.

and to let the spirit of the man shine through the fiesh. Like the biography of Tristram Shandy, this little book goes bark to first principles. It begins with the cradle with that Independence Day in 1872, when the peaceful inhabitants of the hill town of Plymouth, acquired a new reason to celebrate the national anniversary. We do not gain the impression that the new-born child on the old farmstead added a single sound to such echoes of the celebration of the Fourth as may have climbed the hill from the nearest village, for the infant Cool-idge, named before his birth after his father, was already Calvin the Silent. The child, an auburn-hairedmooth-faced babe, with a proboscis somewhat attenuated, was as unique as he lay in his cradle as he was to be a man.

As a babe, his only plaything was a portrait of William the Silent. The family practitioner went his way; peace fell upon the Vermont house-hold, and after that Calvin the Silent had only to make his way into the world, which he proceeded to do, steadily and slowly, but with never a moments interruption to the present day. A clean-cut-origin, a clean-cut, laborious, thinking boyhood, and a c.ean-cut, useful career. It is briefly told in this unique biography. The fact is emphasized that Coolidge is a personality and any real person ality is past and above sophistication or befuddlement.

There were angles enough in the Vermont landscape and in the work-a-day career of this Joy and man to enable him to look at the world from his own angle. He never wrote when he could talk, and he never talked when he could nod.1 "He sees only one side of a question its merits. The public have been curious to study the personality of the only man of tha' kind that they have seen and the more of th man they studied, the more of a man they found. He has a personaityl, like his ideal, Abraham Lincoln, unique in American politics. His fellows at college were with Coolidge till the bench broke.

He is a great listener. He lives in one half of a double house and makes no move to evict the other tenant. His biographer has a chap ter-head, The Weak Links in His Armor but the page is blank. Coolidges principle is, -l'I have never been hurt by what I have not said, but he has said some things, He said them to the striking policemen, he said them to Mr. Gompers, he said them to the Massachusetts Legislature in as fine an edition of the word No as was ever got out, he said them to the gentlemen who notified him of his nomination, and he will keep on saying them when and where they are needed.

The biggest part of Calvin Coolidges biography remains to be writ ten, but this little book makes a goot start. Boston Transcript. FURNITURE REPAIKIN0 and UPHOLSTER!
