BIG PROBLEM IN FUEL
HALF THE COAL IN MINES LEFT
THERE INACCESSIBLE.
Peat Boys of Country, However, Con.
tain Billions Of Tons That
Can Be Utilized in
the Future.

One of the most serious problems at
the present time is due to the fact
that on the average nearly SO per cent.
OF the coal in the mines is left either
In or at the mines and is inaccessible
Tor the future generations.
For example, according to Casters
Magazine, in 1907 approximately 40o,-
100000 tons of coal were left in or
at the same mines from which the
4oO,0O0.O00 tons were taken.
To stimulate the possible use Of
various grades of fuel and safe and
successful methods of mining much
material at present left in the mines
are some Of the problems Of the Unit
ed States bureau Of mines.
Problems of combustion are being
carefully studied by means of sta
tionary boiler plants, house heating

plants.
Among these fuels is peat, samples
Of which have been used In the making
of producer gas. The use of peat for
domestic purposes in European coun-
tries dates back several hundred
years, but the extensive development
In methods of mining and utilizing
peat has been largely within the last
ten years At the present time in
many of tho European countries peat
Is large source Of power develop
ment through the aid of the gas pro-
ducer and engine, and the utilization
Of the peat bogs is becoming general
Some idea of the extent Of this de-
velopment may be had from the state
ment that Russia alone mines annual
ly over 100000 tons of dry peat.
1t is estimated by the United States
geological survey that the boys of
This country contain approximately
l2,SSS, 100000 tons of dry peat COM

his represents over $3s,GO0, 100000.
The Canadian government is carry.
ing on extensive researches relating to
the use Of peat, as this fuel is found
In very large areas in Canada.
The cost of preparing peat for the
market ia comparatively small. Re-
liable figures are not available for the
United States For one locality in
Sweden, visited In 1908, coal cost S3375
per ton, and peat, delivered on the
operating floor, 80 cents per ton.

MAN HASN'T MASTERED HER
Characteristics and Peculiarities Of
American Woman Due to This,
Says Marian Cox.

Few books in recent years have Gre
ated greater stir in America than
THE Crowds and the Yelled Woman"
mastery study of psychology which
has just puzzled and surprised the
thinkers across the Atlantic.
Its writer, Miss Marian Cox Of New
York. who is spending a few days in
London. is dreamy-eyed woman-al-
most q girl, with an amazing magma
which one might guess was bottom
less. Discussing the American woman
generally, she expressed some inter
esting views.
THE emotional Imagination Of the
American woman" she said, "is
starved in the utilitarian civilization
Of her own country, and this explains
why she flocks to Europe for her chief
enjoyment and interest.
From the excess Of leisure-with
which the American mans industry
has lowered her-she has developed
both the virtue and the vice Of leisure,
Imagination and curiosity. And no
where can they be satisfied but in Eu.
rope.
"A true Eve, she is primitive
enough to hunger after all the fruits
upon the tree of knowledge M civ
llzed enough to desire no OF t her.
self to enjoy them. She es to
shut out veryone-sometimes even
her husband--from her own little cpl
curean garden Of success. For her life
Is calculated egotism. This is the
cause Of her famed snobbishness. hard
ness and self-assertiveness. With
American women action takes place OF
emotion; experience takes the place
of sympathies.
''Shc Is a born adventurer--on
whom is engrafted caste-worshiping
Brahmin. No matter If she can trace
her ancestry to the Mayflower-and
all ambitious Americans do-she has
the emigrant instincts In her-in-
stincts which have made the Ameri.
can men the bravest and most initia.
tive In the world, but have made her
the most restless. striving, sensitive
and audacious woman in the world.
She is incapable of feeling fear
and go Is incapable Of deep love or
religion. She adopts sects and cults
because of her ever-mobilc vitality
and curiosity, as a substitute for her
lack of religion, and she plays the
game of love- better than the woman
in any other nationality. for she loves
with her head aud not with her heart
She is eternal celibate coquette
who is never won, but is always bent
OIL conquest. And all her character,
istfcs and peculinrities issue from the
fact that the American man has never
mastered her." she added with a puz.

NOW is DAY OF POOR
NEVER Before COULD THEY GET
so MUCH FOR so LITTLE.
Long Street Car Rides, Free Parks,
Low Postage and Phone Rates
and Great Public Libraries
Are Theirs.

Disciples OF unrest would have the
world believe that this is the day of
the rich; whereas, on the contrary,
never in the history of the United
States have the poor and those per-
sons OF restricted means been enabled
to procure so much for so little.
The rich may speed in their automo-
biles, but for five cents the poor may
ride royalty from one side Of a city
like Chicago to the other, or to be
carried miles into the country. What
an improvement over the days of our
forefathers, when 1t was either own
your own private conveyance, or else
journey by foot or in the expensive
stage.
The rich may 'seclude themselves in
spacious villas and country places, but
the country place of the poor is pro.
vided, absolutely free of expense to
them, i'll extensive parks where grass,
trees, fountains and music, flowers
and statuary, are theirs to enjoy as II
created by their pocketbooks.
For cents letter may be sent
a distance which once would have de-.
manded 20 cents. To the address of
the poor as well as to the hall Of the
rich the carrier delivers the mail, and
for the farmer whose labor will not
permit him to go to town there is the
rural service.
For cents the poor man may talk
over the telephone as far as the rich
man; and into the cottage as into the
mansion has been extended the cleo
trio light at a reasonable rate.
Grand opera comes high, to be sure;
but what does that matter when many,
many amusement gardens, as well az
the public parks. charge no admit
lance fee to their concerts?
The rich may have their private
libraries; but much larger libraries.
of literature as choice or choicer, are
open in cities and even in villages to
the knock of the common people.
1t Is not the day of the rich; 1t is
the day Of the poor. wherein especial
attention is being paid to the person
not with much, but with little, to
spend.-Edwin L. Sabin, in Lippin-
colts.

Fish That Use Ballast.

A Gloucester fisherman, one of the
