Rnty Drudge's Advice to MIR. Newlywed.

Mr.. NeWttWed-'Yes, we've got fine little dove cote
But it's Of those swell apartment houses and they
don't allow any washing done. Won't stand for the
smell and muss.'
Anty Drdge-"Poor boy you must be nearly bankrupt

I'd wash lots of my light clothes myself
the laundry wears them out so fast, said
a young woman who lives in two rooms.
Then she heard about Fels-Naptha.
Now she is washing those things her
self, without hot water, and doing it far
better than if she boiled them.
She has found out that Fels-Naptha
cleanscs things more thoroughly in cool OF
lukewarm water, in little time, than if they
were boiled ill Doomsday.
If you live in a room, apartments or
occupy whole house, take chapter out
of this young woman's experience.
Boiling is unnecessary when you use
Fels-Naptha, either in winter or summer.
All that's needed is cool or lukewarm
water, and even bowl or basin will do for
few things.

mo PROFIT IN ST COAL"
Small Dealers Say They Must
Buy Supplies at Premium.

While the large coal dealers denied yes
terday that the retail price of domestic
anthracite had been increased to 81
ton. some of the East Side uptown deal
ers. who did not want to be quoted, said
they had raised the price to 81 ton last
week, and were not making any profit at
this rate
They also said that though the larger
operators held that they were distributing
whatever anthracite came to New York
and other cities fairly they really were
discriminating in favor OF the large firms,
so the small firms were forced to get the
bulk Of their coal at a premium from In
dependent operators or spectators.
The cudges were taken up yesterday on
behalf OF the independent operators by

IBy cable to The Tribune. ]

London. Nov. 12.-The government
has received staggering blow, but the
ministry is unlikely to resign as con-
sequence of the adverse division in the
House Of Commons Yesterday. Never
tbeless. the prestige of the Cabinet has
been sadly damaged, and it is scarcely
too much TO say that Home Rule is in
teorardy. BY a great many Liberal
members the financial clauses were re-
garded as a blot on the bill, and it was
fully expected that the government
would be in danger Of defeat, so the
Liberal description Of the division as a
SNAP vote" is not altogether justified
The situation is quite unique, how
ever. as there is no exact precedent for
a government defeat under the opera
ton of the guillotine. In the circum-
stances II is not at all certain what
Premier Asquith will now do. The
language Of the official statement COM
nunicated to the press would seem 10
support the theory that either the gov
eminent will seek an immediate vote
Of confidence, and Of course secure
majority. or in the alternative simply

and carry it through in its original
form.

London, Nov. 1.-THE question whether

The statement made by Fire Commits
sioner Johnson that many public school
buildings in New York did not comply
with fire prevention regulations was con-
tradicted Yesterday by G. B. j. Snyder

"If there were such bull iings you car

TO hang doors in order that teachers coulc
keep the children in when an alarm was
