Where to Find Coal.

Correspondence Of tho Ledger.
MAarrssBuRa, Mo-, March 22.-There
is a mistaken notion among inexpe-
rienced men-men who have not studied
the shape of the earth's surface at the
time of the vegetable growth Of which
coal Is compassionate beds Of coal ex-
tend under all parts of the earth's sur
face, except where it has been cut and
worn away by streams of water or other
natural causes. Such men do not COM
prehend or understand the great truth
that the surface of the earth was even
rougher then than now and this vege-
table growth was washed from hillsides
to the plains and levels below. and by
! reason of its being held in large bodies
and sealed up by a sedementary earth
substance it carbonized or turned into
coal. 1t IS a fact that three veins OF
coal exist in various localities, but how
they come there does not concern the
pr,spector or belong to his study. The
discovery of u strata of slate and coal
does not prove the existence Of another
vein below. If the top vein is Of an
even thickness and lies pretty much on
a level it is safe to assume the lower
vein lies pretty much the same. No
man is able to tell the depth of a vein
of coal. In a mine where coal dips
ahead of the miner it is no proof that II
continues to dip to any certain locality
The most skilled miners are unable to
tell what distance they will have to &c
to reach the extreme depth or heightt
of the coal when the dip in from
the other side. Coal lies in ancient
valleys and the breadth of the vein de
ponds upon the breadth of the valley
1t is a scientific fact that coal does no

earth. How would you prospect for it

PEN-PAINTING ON FABRICS.

As this method of decorating Co.'S
tunes, curtains, portieres, mantel and
table borders. and lamprequins is very
fashionable, it is well to know how it
is executed. Ga velvet the effect is
handsome and bold; on satin and Hen
rietta it has a much more delicate ap-
pearance and makes a beautiful trim
ming for dresses.
First, have the material upon which
the floral design is outlined In chalk
mounted, or rather stretched on q still
board, and then mix ordinary oil paints
or enamel colors with a little turpen-
tine or mastic varnish. Having re-
duced them to the consistency of but
ter take them up on your palet-knife
and scrape them off this onto the edge
| of a small tin pallet. Then, having the
different shades of the flower to be pro
duced already on the tin pallet. take an
ordinary steel pen. with very broad
shoulders, and carefully and firmly
scrape up a small quantity of the paint,
transfer it TO the design by striking the
point of the pen firmly into the outline,
turn it sharply over, aud the paint will
be left on the design. After carefully
outlining the whole flower in this way
wipe the pen perfectly clean and pro.
coed to stroke down the rim of pain,
firmly, closely. and finely, which vii
produce a serious of lines, each liz
representing a crewel stitch. For thu
veins of leaves and flowers the pain
is merely laid finely on with a pen, no
stroked down. For the centres OF sucl
flowers as daisies and suntiowers tn
paint is laid on in one thick lump an
then punched with the point ola coars
pin till the desired effect is produced
More brilliant effects are attained b
using gold and silver in conlunctio'
with bright colors.
