Ton of Goa,

We have heard so much, about coal
during the last few months that there
seems nothing fresh to sly about 1t.
But how many people know what an
immense number of things can be pro-
duced from a tor of black diamonds?
You can get 1900 pounds of coke.
90 gallons of ammonia water and 140
pounds of coal tar. If you distill the
coal TAR it will yield So pounds of pitch,
IT pounds of creosote, IA pounds of
heavy oils, pounds of naphtha yel-
low. pounds of naphthaline, 4
pounds of naphthol, pounds OF alaza-
rim, pounds of solvent naphtha, over
a pound each of aurine, benzine, ana
line, toludine, nearly half a pound of
anthracine and $40 of a pound Of
toulene.
From the last named we obtain the
valuable substance known as saccha-
rine, which is $50 times as sweet as
the best cane sugar, one part of it CIV
ing very sweet taste to a thousand
parts OF water. BY using ton of coal
in this way you get more profit out Of
It than by selling 1t for burning.

Heads of Great Industrial Plants
: in Move for Protection of
the Workmen.
MATTER OF BUSINESS SENSE
IL Has Been Found That Financial
and Economic Loss Can Be
Avoided, and All Efforts
Are Being Made in
That Direction.


As result of the passage of COM
pensation laws in many states, manu-
facturers and other employers of labor
are coming to realize the importance
Of further protecting their workers.
Every one Knows it is impossible to
fully compensate victims and their
families for the suffering and possible
fatal results of accidents, so the log
ical thing to do Is to take every pos
sible preeaution in preventing acct
dents.
Some OF the largest plants in the
country have already given consider
able attention to this subject, and the
publicity given their plans will be
beneficial to other employers. The
adoption of more adequate methods Of
preventing accidents means reduc-
ton in the rate of liability insurance.
In one large eastern plant where
the system has been adopted, the rate
of accidents per employe was re-
duced one-half in a year. This was
accomplished by the employment of a
safety engineer, whose sole duty is
to devise means of safeguarding EN-
ployes. Previous to that time the
number of amputations necessary as
the result of the old system was 81
per month, while under the new sys-
tenn the number was reduced to six
amputations during the entire year,
and all of these were amputations Of
fingers.
In addition to a reduction in the
number of accidents, there was saw
ing to the plants relief fund of ap-
proximately $4,000 as compared with
previous years. The nature of the
accidents was also much less serious.
While these results were to a GER
tain extent due to the use of safety
plished by training the employees to
work with safety under conditions
that might become dangerous If the
worker were inexperienced The men
were also trained to look out for each
other more than they had formerly
done
This was accomplished by separat-
Ing the Workmen into classes accord
ing to the rapidity with which they
thought and acted The places of
greatest danger were given to the
quick and alert, while work which in
volved less risk was assigned to slow
moving and slow thinking men. When
1t was found that an employee was so
slow as to be beyond hope of improve
ment, he was let go. This was done
on the theory that 1t would be unfair

employers to Keep him in position
lor which he was not fitted. If al
lowed to remain, there would always
De the danger of injury either to him
SER or to others, and it was deemed
better to force such employees to find
safe work.
Most accidents are the result of nm
expected dangers. Probably broken
ladders and improperly placed ladders
cause more accidents than anything
else. 1t is easy to remedy such evils
Ihis can be done by destroying all
ladders that are weak or worn and
by providing every ladder in the plant
with safety prongs to prevent slim
ping.
Prevention of accidents is even
more important than compensation
Tor injuries, because the latter will
then be unnecessary.

ONLY REASON WHY THERE ARE
NOT MORE IN BUSINESS.
Have Abundantly Proved Their AbIl
lty In Many Lines Of Endeavor,
Says New York Writer.

1.-THE great need of the average
business woman today is to accumu-
late little capitalize rest follows"
said Miss Rose Albers, woman OF
twenty years commercial experience.
The only difficulty that seems to
confront the woman in the CONNER
cial field Is that her wages are not
large enough yet to warrant her saw
ing as much as man toward a nest
egg for future enterprises. The world
is full of women who with a little
backing, have not only made money
for themselves but those who believe
in their ability as well.
While making money is not the
most interesting thing in life, 1t goes
a long way toward making life inter-
esting. A few years ago it was
most unusual thing to take woman
into the concern as a business part
ner. Now men are practically COM
pe.ied to do this in various lines since
she has made herself indispensable
to the progress of that business.
And 1t is a common occurrence for
the woman who has made good to be
welcomed as partner in the con-
Germ. many, many times investing her
brains in the business while others
put up the capital. Yet, on the other
hand, IL she had some capital, her
own progress would have been quick
or and she would have made her
money earlier in life
There are many fields yet unfur-
rowed where woman has feared to en-
ter and man alone has trod But
nearly every time that she has sum
moned up courage enough to try she
has not been found wanting"
DO you think that the woman who
enters largely into business interest
loses interest in marriage?" l asked.
