Something Coming to Him.

A very recent Secretary of State
one day looked up from his desk and
suddenly asked:
insto1d reckedy.., ny-vyearsiren
"Do you speak Spanish, Mr..
Jones?"
"No, sir; I am sorry to say do
not" the clerk addressed replied, re-
gretfully.
"Too bad, too bad!" the Secretary
commented, and turned again to his
papers.
The clerk had visions of an offered
appointment as Secretary of Legation
at Madrid, and that very night set
diligently to work to acquire the
language of the Dons, and with un-
usual success. Two months later he
ventured to suggest:
"Mr. Secretary, short while ago
you asked me If was familiar with
Spanish. At that time was not, but
l have since mastered it,"
"Indeed! Very good" the Secre-
tary said. Have you really become
proficient in the language in this
short timer"

pose that accounts for it, sir" the
clerk modestly admitted.
Excellent" the Secretary said.

self. Now you can read Don

CHEAP COAL HAS VALUE
Means by Which It Does Twice Work
Of High Grade Coal.

According to expert government re-
ports on fuel, the gas engine is capa-
BILE Of generating from two and a half
to three times as much power from a
given amount of coal as the steam en-
gine.
1t economies also in another way
Fuel with so high a percentage Of i'm
purity that 1t could not hitherto be
used in factories can now be made to
generate sufficient power by means OF
a gas engine to do the same work that
otherwise would require double the
quantity of high grade coal.
The Ignite coal of North Dakota
says The National Magazine, has thus
been made to give out as much gas
engine force as the best West Virginia
and bituminous coal used under steam
boilers.

Destruction Of Weeds

A determined effort is to be
made by the agricultural inter-
ests of the state to provide for
the better destruction of weeds
in the state, and at the instance
OF the state department of ag-
riculture Senator Allen has pre-
pared a bill which provides for
a state botanist to define what
weeds are noxious and for APP
pointment of supervisors in the
townships. The township au-
thorities are empowered to cut
weeds in the highways and
charge the cost up to the abut-
ting property. They also have
power to compel a land ,owner
to cause the noxious weeds to
be.cut on the farm. The bill is
not as drastic as that which
was first drafted by the depart
ment,.but it will meet;:ssthe case
fairly:well.
