How ,be President Is Paid.

In the apportionment Of the salaries
Of all United States government en-
ployees the year is divided into quar-
tiers and each quarter subdiyided ac-
cording to the number of days in each
month, but the president receives prac-
tically the same amount every month.
Thus. If a president should die at the
end of February, after receiving MS
salary for that month, his successor
would in reality receive less than the
full amount due him in March because
his predecessor had, in effect, been
oyerpaid the prior month. lnasmuch
as the presidents salary may not be
divided into exactly equal parts, it is
necessary to pay the chief magistrate

How Coal Was First Named.

Curiously, the word coal was In use
long before as well as long after the
commencement of the coal trade, with
a meaning quite different from that
which it now has. The term originally
belonged to wood fuel and was applied
in particular TO wood which had been
charred, or what is now called char
coal.
When the trade In mineral coal be-
gan. this was usually distinguished by
the singular name of sea coal IT
would seem that from having been
gathered in early times on the sea-
shore, more especially Of Northumber-
land. along with seaweed and other
wreckage cast up by the waves, this
peculiar substance was supposed to be
of marine origin. From this circum-
stance and it's resemblance to wood
coal in color and burning properties 1t
obtained the name of sea coal, by
which it was so long and so widely
known. Then in the course of time,
as the new fuel gained upon and SUI
perseded the old, the simple name OF
coal became universally transferred
to 1t.
