People Who Eat Goa.

Earth-eating savages are known to
anthropologists, but the statement that
there are people in civilized England
who flabitually swallow Jumps of ordin-
ary household coal appears somewhat
surprising. To this practice Mary Ann
Foy. household maid lately employed
at 46 Gloucester gardens, Hyde Park:
owed her death. Some OF the pieces,
stated DR.. Harper at the inquest, had
stuck in the windpipe and caused sufto-
cation. 1t was fact. added the witness.
that some persons did eat small portions
of coal. The coroner asked with what
object. A juror said that persons sut-
fering from severe attacks of heartburn
did so. The coroner said that he had
heard of persons eating charcoal, but
not coal. There was. in the present case
however. no doubt about the fact.

take their names and after his rounds
among the poor and needy of the town
he would call up by telephone these
men who wanted to know what thew
could do and tell them that such and
such poor widow was in need of as
sistance. They put up all sorts of ex-
cuses until they could fad to more to
put up, then they had their telephones
taken out so that he could not call

standing of the business value of COM
bination and cooperation. Before the
war between the states the average
country newspaper was published at a
heavy expense. Few editors managed
TO make both ends meet. Their bust
ness life was a constant struggle for
existence. Competition had reduced
advertising rates and cut subscription
prices below the cost price. But early
in the sixties, at time when money
was getting scarcer and labor harder
to procure than ever. the late y. y.
Kellogg. then country editor up in
Wisconsin. solved the problem which
was agitating his fellow publishers by
inaugurating the auxiliary sheet
better known as the patent inside
business. The idea. although revolu-
tionary and contrary to all editorial
traditions. became popular at once, and
was adopted by hundreds of western
publishers who, by it. were enabled TO
issue good papers at nominal eN-
pense.
4 few years later the stereotype
business-another industry founded
on the principle of combination and CO.
launched. Its purpose
was to supply the editors of newspa-
pers printed in the larger towns with
stereotype plates that could be used
in place of the much higher priced
hand composition. The business was
a success from the start. 1t not only
