Surrounded by the most stupendous

Is storehouse of such limitless wealth
that the human mind can scarcely
comprehend its extent or grasp the
figures which may be used to try to
tell the story. Great Britain's finan.
c4al and commercial power, her dom.

as well as those Of peace. Without
coal Great Britain could not for the
last century have existed as the lead
or in the worlds affairs. But in the
beginning before Great Britain had
mined a ton of coal she had but s..
900 square miles OF coal territory,
much Of 1t of thin veins. A recent
report Of the British Coal Commission
makes its calculations based on the
time when all coal having width Of

feet, will be mined. Against Great

could be capitalized at 10 cents a ton
you would have wealth enough to buy
nearly all the railroads of America, or
nearly enough to pay the national
debts of the United States, Great Brit.

could buy all the national banks in
the United States and scarcely miss
the amount thus expended, or you
could own all the iron, steel and ma

still have ampel surplus left for other
