THE HEATING PROBLEM.
The More Completely Coal is Burned,
the More Heat is Generated.


In the frozen-up winter time, when
the mercury flirts with the zero mark,
If you should suggest to your neighbor
that he ought to eoonomize coal, he
would shudder at the mere thought
For In his mind the idea of burning
less coal would mean cold house
and shiyering household.
In fact, the idea Is common, even
among intelligent people, that the
more coal you burn the
more heat you get, and vice versa.
Whereas the real problem OF coal
economy is to get the heat out of the
fire and gases Of combustion before
they escape up-chimney.
To remarkable extent this problem
is solved by heating system known
as the Model. So effective is 1t that
many instances are reported wherein
this system has been installed to take
the place of some other, and has actu-
ally saved half of the former coal con-
sumption. In some instances the dis
carded heating plants were hot-air
systems, and in others they were
steam or hot water systems.
1t is largely by the perfection of a
unique boiler that this coal saving Is
effected.
Economy begins in the FIRE box. by
fully consuming every particle of coal,
reducing it to fine white ashes. This
is accomplished by the arrangement
Of drafts, the shape of the fire-box, and
by a CRATE which keeps the fire always
clear and bright at the bottom, allow
ing the fully burnt ashes to work
through automatically The more
completely coal Is burned, the less
coal is needed and the fewer ashes
are made. When the ashes are coarse.
with black pieces scattered through
them, the coal is partly consumed
and partly wasted.
Having extracted all the heat from
all the coal, the next step is to trans
nit the heat to water in order that IL
may be communicated through the
house by way Of pipes and radiators.
This is done by dividing the water
into thin layers so placed that they
present the greatest possible surface
to the fire and superheated gases
above the fire. So perfect is this ar
ranRement that the water passes con
tinuously into the boiler and In It's
brief course through the boiler It Is
boiled 10 steam Cor fully beated,in the
hot water heating SYSTEM without
loss of time
The water absorbs the heat so fast
and so completely that the gases es-
Gaping up the chimney are well cooled,
showing that all the heat from all the
coal has been retained where 1t IS
needed--in the house.

n,h Enr t,,n Game.

Joe Ryan, the Chicago story teller, met coal operator who told him a story of two dealers at a gambling house who were invited to go out and shoot ducks. They had never shot anything, these dealers, but craps and patrons, and they were nervous and not exactly up to what they were to do.
 They went to n hunting hut in the Illinois river and were told they were to rise early in the morning and go out after the ducks. They were so excited they couldn't sleep, and about mid night one of them went out in front of the hut and saw large number of wooden decoy ducks floating in the water. He rushed back, got his gun and began firing at the decoys.
 His companion, startled by the sound, came out and took one look. Then he screamed "Stop 1t! Stop it., you mnatic! You're shooting the boostersw- Saturday Evening Post.

PINcHoT TO BE REMOVED.

Dispatches from Washington, D. C., state that Clifford Pinchot, head of tn Bureau of Forestry, will be removed because of his recent criticism of the pol y employed by Secretary of the Interior Ballinger. There is but little doubt that most of Pinchot's critic isms were wholly justified. Pinchot has always stood out for the consery' ation of the public forests and water ways; he has always fought against the uswpation of these public be longings by capital. Perhaps this is the real reason he is to be removed Ballinger seems to have changed his spots since Roosevelt retired.

THE COAL LAND FRAUDS.

There has been for some time a strong suspicion existing in the minds of people who were at all conversant with the case, that few big cor porations were trying their hardest to grab all of the Cordova coal lands by the means of dummies and illegal registrations. This sus- picion has developed into positive rroof, according to Fred Dennett, Commissioner of the General Land Office, who gave out sensational interview at Denver last Friday.
 Next month the government will told a hearing at Seattle and the facts will be sifted thoroughly. If the proof of fraud obtained by the Land Office is as strong as MT. Den nett claims, there will be whole sale cancellation Of entries and prose cutions may follow.
 Probably the coal fielIS of AlasES. are second 70 none Ct tbe other re- sources in the country. Certainly in years to come they will be great and constant revenue to their owners. The coal lands were thrown open for public entry and by fraudulent means the corporations who engineered the deal succeeded in obtaining the bulk cf the richest por.'on of the coal lands. It is to be hoped that these grating corporations will be forced to dlsgorge and that some one lands in jail as q penalty for such bare faced robbery.
