The nineteenth century will leave
behind a great legacy of mysteries
which it could not solve, and which
probably will remain mysteries te' the
end of time. The most notable OF
these are to be recalled in detail in the
April Ladies' Home Journal in an arti-
Gle on sThe Mysteries of the Century
Each one set the whole world agog
with excitement and speculation in its
day, but has faded almost completely
from the mind of the public.

We have saved many doctor bills
since we began using Chamberlain's s
Cough Remedy in our home. We
keep a bottle open all the time and
whenever any OF my family or myself
begin to catch cold we begin to use
the Cough Remedy, and as q result we
never have to send away for doctor
and incur large doctor bill, for

Will Buy American Coal.

|
Among other great industries re-
spending TO the enlivened pulse OF bet
ter business is the coal trade. It is
felt in all parts of the world, the naval
demands of the past two years having
been extraordinarily large and the
policy of the great nations to keep
liberal supplies at all coaling stations
likewise contributing to the heavy
orders.
Reports from Europe shows coal is
In great demand and comparatively
scarce. Russia is especially in the
market as heavy buyer for her navy.
So many steamers have been pressed
into transport business by England to
carry men and supplies to South Africa
1T has caused an advance in the price
OF coal. Over million tons of ship
Ing belonging to companies and indi-
viduals have been chartered by Eng
land fOr war purposes.
Bituminous coal In Great Britain is
quoted as high as SO ton, while in
Italy the manufactures are threatened
with shortage which may compel
them to shut down. England has
been buying largely in other countries
during the past few years. Complaints
of a scarcity OF coal are heard in the
in the manufacturing centers of
France.
There does not seem to be any doubt
that we shall ultimately supply large
amount of coal 10 foreign countries.
One coal company IN the east shipped
to Europe, in January, about 10000
tons of coal. Every year England will
increasingly have to be supplied with
coal from without. The British Iron
Trades Review admits that "Amerlcan
competition in the coal trade is one
of the possibilities-lndeed, probabili-
ties-of the future, and, while we have
no need of it now, it is not altogether
comfortable to reflect that by reason
| of such competition, an era of high
prices such as we are now experiencing
may never again be possible" The
| fact is, many coliieries in England
have already reached the millstone
grit" which means that the bottom of
coal seams has been reached.
The warning prediction made by
the president of the British Institute
of Mining Engineers is forcibly recall
ed. He said a year ago IN his address,
that $50 years We shall practically be
dependent on the United States of
America for cheap coal, iron and
STEEL" OF the 472,000 square miles
of the worlds coal fields in sight, our
country has nearly 200,00O-more
than twelve times the area of the coal
fields OF England, Germany, Russia,
France, Belgium and Spain united.
OF course, the China and Japan coal
fields are very extensive. Those of
China are estimated to be able to sup
ply the whole world for 1900 years.
They have hardly been touched as yet.
1t will be some time before their de-
velopment will affect the worlds coal
market. Meantime we will command
the market as We are now getting to
the front as the great source of iron
and steel supply for the nations.
Events move very quickly in these
latter days. There Is no reason tc
doubt that, within the first third ol
the twentieth century, this will be the
richest country in the world through
our iron and coal.-Tacoma News.

Fine Point OF Wisconsin, Law to Be De
cided.

Fine Point OF Wisconsin Law to Be De-
cIded.
The board of directors will be called
upon to decide a nice point of Wis
cOnsin law at their service this week.
The Wisconsin law permits Il benefit
certificate to be made payable to ale
gal heirs" Fred Johnson, OF Della
held. Wis, who died Dec. IS, had his
certificate made payable to legal
heirs" He is survived by two BROTH
ers, one sister and one half sister. 1t
is asserted that his half sister is not a
legal heir. Both of Johuson's parents
died some time ago, and in the divis-
ion of the estate at that time the pro-
bate court held that the half sister
was not legal heir, but in the present
instance prominent attorneys contend
that she is entitled under the law to
her share. If the board does not care
to decide. settlement will proba bly, be
made through the general attorney in
this case.
For the week ending the 9th inst.
the certificate department issued SOIL
benefit certificates and chartered So
new camps. If this percentage is
maintained, the first month of the new
wear will be credited with all increase
in benefit membership of $4,000 and
about 10 new camps. During the
first week in January, 1898, there
were issued =, 337 certificates and 20
camps were chartered.
During the year just closed the
Modern Woodmen of America made
such a large increase in its member
shi D that it reduced the total average
age by 81 of year In other words,
the average age in 1898 was So so
years; in 1899 but sc IS years. The
death rate during 1899 was but 49l
per 1000 members. The increase in
membership during 1899 was 31.20
per cent based on the total mem ber-
ship. while the percentage of perma-
nently lapsed members was but 5.24,
or a total of 20, 1S5. The total net in
crease in benefit members was 101,-
S73, while the total of new members
admitted was 125. 633. The total av-
erage amount of certificates in force
at the close of business Dec. so, 1899,
was 81 ,S36 80. there being, in round
figures, 1870, 900 benefit mem bers.
The total number of local camps or
ganized during the year 1899 was
l 500. No other society in the world
organized even half that number dur
ing the same period.
