WOULDN'T RECEIVE IT.

Where women who. have scarcely
ever more than heard of soft coal are
forced by necessity to use it for do
nestle heating purposes, more or less
trouble is bound to follow. One Wo-
man in Newport recently ordered sew
eral tons Of soft coal from her dealer
without, apparently, any great amount
of knowledge of what it was.
When the driver backed his wagon
up and started to carry in the coal the
woman who had been looking at the
load from the window of her house,
came out and stopped him.
''Here," she said, what are you
going to do with that dirt?"
'"That is the coal you ordered" said
the driver.
''I ordered soft COAL" said the wo-
man. .sThis is not coal. This is only
black dirt and dust"
That's what soft coal is" replied
the driver, rather puzzled.
ooh. it is. is it?' she said. 1T is,
eh? Well, if that's soft coal you can
Just take it back to the coal yard and
keep it there for all Of me. I'll not
have any Of that stuff in. nv cellaN"
And she did not have it, either. The
driver had to cart it all away again,
and that woman is now burning wood.

FAT MEN ON STREET CARS

What relation fat men bear to over
crowded street cars was discussed by
club women in New York the other
day. The controversy originated in
the declaration by one of the fair pro-
testers that it was an outrage to COM
pei woman to occupy a seat, all the
room of which had been appropriated
by fat man. She was of the opinion
that almost the entire trouble came
from the fact that stout male persons
persist in riding in the cars. There
might be remedy in barring them
from riding at all. "Oh, don't think
the fat men are to blame for it all, re.
Joined another sister. IT admit they
are inconyenient at times, but we

ciallytf for the fat men. have known

it will .inspirp a deep sense Of graft
tude IN d misjudged and deserving
class to learn that this sentiment was
greeted with mummur Of applause.
Speaking as one who has gained eleven
pounds in weight in eight weeks, our
anxiety concerning the eventual dis
position of fat men is more or less
eager. We cheerful1y and honestly in
dorse the statement that there are
some nice fat men: and in the crowded
street car it would seem to he the best
wisdom to have them sitting down
rather than standing and blocking the
aisle so that nobody can get in or out.
Besides. a fat man hanging to a strap.
and unsteady on his legs, as so many
of them are, is a peril and terror to
all those sitting near him. Suppose
the strap should breaki We hope this
reasoning will have the effect it should
