ECoNONIIziNG CoAL.-The Scie,isifo
-4mertcan gives the following useful hints
upon this subject, which are confirmed by I
every ones experience who understands
the philosophy of coal fires:
GA good, bright FIRE can be steadily
maintained with coal, with less trouble
tEan any other kind of fuel, bat not oyJ
raking, noking, and piling in green fuel
continually. After breakfast the fire,
should be cleared Of ashes il there are
any, and fresh fuel put on to FIJI the grate
moderately. Let the oven damper be
turned up, SO as to heat it, and leave the
small top doors open, more or less, accor-
ding to the intensity Of the heat required
La this way air enters over the top of the
fire, and maintaius far better combustion
and consequently greater heat than when
the draft hampers are thrown open. A
washing can be done, or ironing accom-
plished with ope-third less coal than is
generally thought necessary to use. So
tar as sitting ashes for the cinders they
contain is concerned, it is hopeless to ex--
pect. much change. Hundreds Of poor
families IN cities live off the waste of their
improvident neighbors, and in this way
there is something used which would 9TH
erwise be lost; but it seems to US that
charity should be practiced in different
and more positive manner. Il the provcrb
be true that 'eharlts begins a. home, then
We have still stronger argument against
the wasteful practice. Cinders viii burn
admirably in small cylinder stoves, and
heat a nursery or a laundry as hot as it
should be. Every shovelffull saved is
shovel full put in the cellar, and hint to
the wise is enough on this point"

s@- By recent decision of the Secre-
tary of War, Catholic clergymen are vir-
tually exempt from the performance of
military duty. The decision was made In
the case of four members of the ST. Louis
University, who were drafted and held by
the Provost Marshal An appeal was
made co the Secretary oe War, who or
dered their release on parole, to report
when called npon by him. This virtually
exempts them.

SUBAoUEoUs aAPPARATUs.-An y inge-
nious apparatus for enabling persons to
remain under water, or in places filed
with deleterious gases, has been contrived
by a French inventor. The apparatus J
consists simply of piece of wood having
the form and dimensions of the human {
mouth when open. To this piece OF wood
two india-rubber tubes are affixed, of any
length, according to the exigeneies of the
case. The man engaged IN the operation
is further provided with nose-piucher,
or instrument for COMPRISING the nostrils,
so as to prevent the introduction OF the
deleterious gas, or of water. as the case
may be. The operator puts the piece of
wood into his mouth, and the pincher on
his nose Hestops up one of the oriices
with his. tongue, aud inhales pure air from
the other. He continues thus, regularly
shifting his tongue from one orifce to the
other, in the order of inspiration and ex-
piration; but even a mistake would be of
little consequence.
