OUR MINERAL RESOURCES.

Professor nay.
Washington, oct. 23.-The annual
volume on the mineral resources OF the
United States for 1901, prepared by
DR., David 7. Day of the geological
survey, has been sent to press and vii!
be issued soon. An interesting feature
of the report is compilation of Stats
ties showing the number of working
DAYS lost in strikes in the coal indus
try. These figures include the present
year and are brought up to date. The
total number of days lost for the pres
cnt year is placed at 20,O00,o0O'
compared with 733,S02 days in 1901,
4.S1s, lua in 1900 and 2.124.l4 in 1899.
The report places the total mineral
moducts Of the country for the year
at %l,ONd.329,521. gain of a little
no,e'tian per cent over the produc-
ii1u oil 1890. The gain was made in
HE uollmetallic products and amount
81 to S:iJ0GJ. $50. against n loss of
81 i56909 in the metallic products.
~ heretofore. iron and coal are
shown to be the most important of our
mineral products. The value of iron
IN 1901 was S242. 600, as compared
with $259.9440O in 1900, and the
value of coal was S34S,91O. 469. as com
pared with S30G671 .364 in 1900.
The value of fuels increased from
S406359,351 in 1900 to SAP. 395 .304 in
1901, gain of almost 8 per cent.
Every variety of fuel increased in
value except petroleum. which showed
an increase in quantity of 5,1GS,665
barrels. but decline in value of
S9.571,97S, due largely, the report
states. to the less valuable character
of the increased product of the new
petroleum fields as compared with the
older fields.

Red and Inflamed Eyelids.

Red and intlamed lids, lids which
look as though the person had been
keeping very late hours, says a recent
periodical, and lids which have little
crusts formed during the night at the
root of the eyelashee, are usually an
indication of low degree Of astigma-
tism. In some cases no relief is had
for this condition till proper glasses
are procured. A large proportion of
the cases, however, will be cured by
the following ointment: Yellow oxide
Of mercury, three grains; yellow vase
line, one-half ounce; mix thoroughly
and apply a very little to the edge of
the eyelids each night-Jewelers' Cir
