COAL BRIQUETTING
DEVELOPMENT OF THE INDUS.
TRY in 1907 IN THE UNITED
STATES.

The coal briquetting industry should
make rapid progress in this country
during the next few years, according
to E. w. Parker of the United States
Geological survey. Although the pro-
duction in the United States in 1907
63,153 short tons, having a value at
the plans of $244,942-seems insig-
niflcant when compared with the out
put of briquetting plants inGermany
in 1906-About 100000 short tons
it is of great Importance as Indicating
that a beginning has been made and
that consumers are being gradually
educated in the advantages of briquets
for efficiency, ease of handling and
cleanliness.
There were ten plants in operation
in 1907, although one of these, at Pitts
burg Landing, Cal, was burned in July
and up to the close of the year had
not been rebuilt. The location of the
plants and the character of the fuel
and binder used in the operations are
reported by Mr.. Parker in a paper just
published by the survey as an advance
chapter from Mineral Resources of
the United States, Calendar Year
1907" In the Introductory paragraphs
to this report, Mr.. Parker says:
There can be little doubt that the
interest aroused through calling atten.
ton to the wasting in the past of the
country's natural resources, repre-
sented by the nonuse of slack and
culm produced in our coal, mining
operations, and the aggressive policy
of President Roosevelt in seeking to
throw light upon it and to correct the
abuses into which we have largely un-
consciously fallen, are, to a great ex-
tent, responsible for the present pros.
pect Of a development Of coal briquet-
ting as an important industry In the
United States. It may not be long be
fore the governments of the states,
under whose jurisdiction the matter
comes. will enact legislation against
the accumulation of slack and culm
heaps or their useless destruction by
burning, and prohibit this waste, as
they have in some cases interdicted
the waste of natural gas.

Would Follow His Example.

After the battle of Prestonpans a
witty Scottish farmer amused himself
by writing ballad upon it, which SO
stung one Of the English officers, who
had behaved very basely on the occa-
sion, that he sent the poet challenge
to meet him at 81. for mortal COM
bat.
The second found the farmer busy
with his hayfork and at once delivered
the challenge of the redoubtable hero.
The good natured farmer, turning to-
ward him with the agricultural nipple
ment, coolly said:
"Gang ava back to Mester Smith
and tell him haze nae time to come to
n. to gle him satisfaction, but that If
he likes to come here I'll TAX a look
at him. and If I think I can fecht
(dght him I'll fecht him, and If I
think / Gamma fecht him III just do as
he did-IM run away"

The importance Of healthy
stomach has been very forcibly
brought 10 the attention of the
American people in the past few
years by l.. T. Cooper, whose fame
has spread far and wide. Mr. Coop
er claims the stomach can be ones
best friend or his worst enemy. If
the stomach j. weakened by neglect
or abuse, the system becomes run
down, and the gates are thrown
wide open for the entrance of dis
ease germs, which are manifested
in the form If liver and kidney
trouble, rheumatism, nervous dis
orders, etc.
1t follows, then, that In order to
enjoy good health, the stomach
must be soned up to "a normal con-
dition, SO that eyry particle of food
will be dige~ted The result Will

Stomach troubles are very common
in the summer time and you should
not only be very careful about what
you eat just now, but more than this,
you should be careful not to allow
vour stomach to become disordered,
and when the stomach goes wrong
take Kodol. This is the best known
preparation that is offered TO the peo-
pie today for dyspepsia or indigestion
or any stomach trouble. Kodol di-
gests all foods. 1t is pleasant TO take.

these juices that the food we eat is
