lridescent Coal.

The iridescent colors on Peacock
coal are due to the presence of "A film
of iron obide, says the Engineering
and Mining Journal. In working
outward from the center of a coal
basin transitions in the nature of
the coal will be observed as the work
progresses toward the out ,rop. At
the center the coal will be black and
lustrous. and no colors are seen. A.
the outcrop is approached the pea
cock colors begin to appear, owing
to the light oxidation which the iron
sulphide in the coal has undergone.
Still closer to the outcrop the iron
coating assumes the well-known ye.-
Low and brown colors. The degree
to which the iron sulphide is oXidized
is an indication also as to the gener-
al character of the coal, the volatile
having been dissipated as the oXida-
ton proceeded. The appearance OF
peacock colors is therefore an indica-
tion of inferior quality, while, as Is
well known. the outcrop coal is prac'
tically worthless.

What You Will be Glad of.

When years have slipped by and
memory runs back over the path
you have, come, you will be glad you
stopped to speak to every friend you
met and left them all with a warmer
feeling in their hearts because you
did so.
You will be glad, too. that you
kept back the angry word which
formed itself on your lips.
Much of the sorrow Of life comes
from giving way to the spirit of evil
and not listening to the angel of
good when the two strive in the
heart.
And then you will be glad that you
were happy wAen doing the small,
everyday things Of life.
You will be glad that there have
been some rainy days in your life.
Clouds and Storm are not the worst
things in life. If there were 70
storms, the fountains would dry up,
the sky would be filled with poison
Gus vapors, and life would cease.
You will be glad that mother
taught you the Child's Prayer, and
also that noblest OF all prayers,

Liquid Oxygen and Nitrogen.

A correspondent at Paris, France.
describes the manufacture for in
dustrial purposes Of enormous guam
titles of oxygen and nitrogen, ex-
tracted in a liquid state from atmos-
pheric air. AS the liquid oxygen
flowed out from the generator it was
of blush hue, while the nitrogen
was colorless. Experiments were
made. A forge set up in the
grounds showed the wonderful eff
fects of the gas. The fire, which
had almost died out, was immedi-
ately rendered incandescent by a
current of hydroxide from the blow
pipe. A bar of iron was brought to
a red heat and then melted like lead.
wo pieces of iron were welded IN at
few minutes by the aid of power
full flame from the blowpipes. Much
costly and tedious riveting will be no
longer necessary; iron will be weld
ed against iron, copper against cop
per, etc. The doctors already fore
see the possible treatment with
liquid air.
Liquid air has been tried in mines
as an explosive agent. and for this
purpose mari is wet with petroleum
and then saturated with liquid air.
The paste thus formed constitutes a
good explosive when fired with full
inmate, and has the advantage,
when it hangs fire, to be without
danger, as the liquid air evaporates
very rapidly.

''bekase it's jewel ov a political

after long journey. Why" ask

fare, why did you call your horse po-
etical?" "Shure, your honor, it's

ney, for his good qualities are i'm
aginary. not real.
