occupied adjoining stores in a small
western town, were intimate friends.
When business was dull they visited

customers were few, Adam sat behind
the stove In Jake's store. A young wom-

forward to wait on her

Recently the Duchess of Marlborough
made a flying trip from St. Moritz,
Switzerland, to her London home, Sun

lied the decorating now going on there,
She then returned TO the Swiss resort.
Her impetuous grace had arranged for
the placing of some beautiful carved
panels round the walls of one of the re-
ception rooms on the same floor rs the
ballroom. Unfortunately the panels,
purchased by her ready for hanging did
not it. This threw out the whole
scheme of the room. the coloring OF
which had been toned to match the tap
estries and carved frames. The duchess,
who was especially anxious for this
form Of decoration for the apartment,
was advised by letter and at once has
tened to assume charge. Later in the
season the duchess will entertain a num-

smokeIess Coal.

London Chronicle: The Welsh coal
industry, which is threatened, may be
said TO date from the passing of the
London smoke act, in 1929, which caus
ed demand for smokeIess coal In the
metropolis. 1t was rumored on the coal
exchange that such coal was to be
found In Wales, and two dealers saiied
in a sloop from London to Cardiff. with
a view to verifying the rumor. for. al
though Welsh coal had been burned to
some extent by the natives since the
thirteenth century. none had been ex-
ported from the principaiity.
From Cardif the dealers drove tn
Merthyr and interviewed Mrs T,ucv
Thomas, the owner OF one OF the Few
pits then working In Wales. The
mother of the Welsh coal trade" as
she has since come to be called. sat
In q hut near the pit, and fastened
TO her head was Q. basket into which
she placed the money received for the
coal She listened somewhat susplc-
iously to the order for d s1lipioad az

she would like the price to be paid III

lings ton. This was done, and the
coal was taken on the backs OF mules

that in these contests practically every
child mas perfect mark.
This is accounted for by the fact that
the brain is not crammed with new
and strange words every day. Two new
words do not tend to frighten a child
where ten would. and he is sure to
know the two when ne finishes with
them, where he might be utterly con-
fused when confronted with ten, is the
Hicks argument. The efficiency of the
system was proved recently in Cleve-
land when a list of words was given
the pupils of all tie seventh grades
of the city, 1t was found that the
words gave the pupils in two schools
largely composed of Jewish children
1880 chances to make a mistake
When the results of the test were tab
ulated IL was discovered that one boy
in eacn school made one error.
Some criticism of the Hicks system
manifested itself in Cleveland when IL
was shown by the percentage that the
schools were rapidly developing an
ability to spell. It was charged that
for test purposes and to make record
for the system, simple and easily SPELL
ed words were given. Hicks showed
the fallacy of this charge by the fact
that the words chosen were the words
that by test and recitation were found
to be most generally misspelIed.
