PRICE OF COAL ADVANCED.

thracite coal will have to pay 10 cents more than
they did last month for every ton of coal they
buy. This makes the retail price So 10 per ton.
This is the third monthly advance of 10 cents by
the retailers and the fourth by the operators since
the spring reduction. A similar advance, and the
last for the present. will be made September
l when the maximum fair weather price will be
reached.
Retailers say they have put in more coal for
winter use far this than ever before,
and expect this month will be an exceptionally
busy August for them.

KAIsER is a HARD WORKER
German Emperor Has Even a Yam
,kee Millionaire Beaten for SIREN
uous Exercise.

An American manufacturer
who had recently been in Ger
many returned with a budget OF
personal incidents concerning the
German emperor, whom he was SO
fortunate as to meet several
times.
GAS a worker the kaiser beats
even a Yankee millionaire he
says in the New York Herald
"Why, even on the morning of his
marriage he appeared at the bar
racks at Potsdam at six o'clock
to give a medal to a sergeant
major. He was then simply Prince
William, but to the officers, who
were astonished to see him at
such a moment, he said: ~ am
only doing my duty, And later,
as emperor, he has said; 1T is not
necessary that ] live, but it is es-
sential that ! work. b.,
"He never Postpones, any kind
of business, but settles every
thing at the hour appointed, even
though to do so he has to. take
an hour or so from his sleep, He
has made it a rule that even an i'm
perial dinner of ten courses to 80
people shall not last longer than
30 minutes. In his bedchamber,
beside his bed, a brass affair
worth $50, he keeps a paper and
pencil, that he may make a note
of anything that occurs to him
before he goes to sleep or when he
awakes in the morning"

"cRIBs" FOR EXAMINATIONS
Articles of Daily Use often Used by
School Pupils When Hard Tests
Are at Hand.

Examination time is not far
off," said a schOOl-teacher. 81
II suppose a number of my boys
are already beginning to evolve
new ideas in cribs.
II have collection of captured
cribs OF considerable ingenuity.
One crib is book, circular in
form, of the size to fit in a watch
case. There are 80 finely written
pages to the book; it contains all
the more difficult propositions in
plain geometry. The creator of
this crib had it in his watch and
had been consulting it without
detection for two hours when, un-
luckily, some one jOggled his arm
and the crib fell to the floor.
81 have a yellow lead pencil with
the kings of England and the dates
and results of all the important
battles of English history writ
ten on it.
81 have penknife and an eraser
that are Thoroughbred well. They
contain the irregular French
verbs.
"Once in a geography examina-
ton / saw a boy looking at his
shoe a good deal. / found that he
had written on his shoe the cap
itals of the principal countries of
the world.
"Few boys use their cuffs as
cribs. Black writing on white lin
en- is too easily seen, too danger.
Gus. The cuff as a crib is obsolete.
"The nails of the left hand, in
the case of the boys who can write
finely enough, will often contain a
great number of Latin rules,
Greek verbs, dates and such like
valuable information. The nails
make one of the best and safest
cribs known to schoolmasters."

THIS COWBOY PARTICULAR.
Plainsman Wanted Story, But Upon
Its Presentation He Thought He
Had Cash Coming.

A cowboy living in Arizona, 40
miles from a post Office or book
store, was a tiraustark convert.
He learned by address from a
Chicago man who happened to be-
travelling in that country and
wrote me a long letter, in which he
said he was eager to read my new
book, THE Sherrods,v which had
just been published. He had rid
den 40 miles, going and coming,
twice a week for a month, but had
been unable to secure the book at
the nearest town, says a writer in
the BOOkman. He was writing to
ask me if / would send him copy
by mail if he would send me the
price. ] sent him copy with my
compliments and told him he
need not mind the price, l was
only too happy to give him the
book. 1t required but little per-
ceptiOn on my part to discover
that he did net like the story. /
have only to repeat what he said
II don't wonder you are happy
to give it away You don't expect
people to buy il, do you? Pm much
obliged to you for giving it to me
for nothing, but even at that
think there is some change com
ing to me-"
What criticism could be more
caustic than that?
1t penetrated TO the very quick
of my pride, and / made the mis-
take of retaliating politely. I
sent him a dollar and fifty cents in
stamps and ASKED if that made us
square. He went me one better
by responding that he could use
the stamps to great advantage in
warning his friends not to read
the book. ! was afraid to reply to
this.

broad, hard hand, or whose heart
could beat one stroke more at the
sight of my clumsy figure.
"At this same party was a
smooth, white, cool woman, whose
voice was not a rusty hinge like
ours, and whose movements were
music, withoutrolling of hips
and shoulders. Her clothes grew
to her as naturally as her satin
skin. The very sportsmen-hunt
ing men and golfers-were spell
bound; they were traitors: AS
my sister said, we went home like
two cubbish boys hulking along in
petticOats.
Even a hunting man-who my
sister said would be satisfied as to
beauty if one dressed a stableman
in a habit and strapped in his
waist, provided he rode we'll
