mo Foru,atIon of Coal.

AInny different theories are held by
biologists to secount for the formation
of beds Of coal between strata of rock.
The simplest Of them Il that vast
masses Of wood, such as grew In the
carboniferous age of the earth'S de-
veIopment. were sunk under the sea,
that deposits OF silt upon them changed
to rock and that by some upheavnl Of
the earth the bottom OF the sea was
lifted above sea level Such upheaval
occurred In remote geologic ages In the
Mississippi valley, all the central parts
of which were undoubtedly at one
time covered with water and formed
an arm of the sea. The one thing GER
tain about coal Is that by one process
OF nature or another It has been con-
vorted from the giant trees which grew
In the carboniferous age of geology.
How many thousands or millions Of
years that was nobody knows. All
that Is known about the duration Of
different geologic ages OF the world l.
that they were long.

Some time ago the head of a large
wholesale shoe business was in need
Of an advertising manager. II he had
followed the usual practice he would
have gone outside the house and hired
a professional lad. manager" But he
had a notion that the man who knew
enough about salesmanship and about
his special goods to sell them on the
road could ',make sentiment for those
same goods by the use OF printers Ink.
Therefore he put one OF his crnck sales
men into the position and now pays
him $4,000 a year. And the man has
''made good' IN great shape.
Nor does this merchant stop with
promoting men from the ranks OF his
organization. II a salesman In his
