When the Coal is Gone.

tsmoke nuisance of cities: all we have
to do in the matter, if we are patient
and not too hasty is to wait until
2010 and, the coal having been ex-
hausted, the world will be using
hydraulic power (unless something
better is found for heat, light and
motive purposes.
Prepare to scrub all the buildings
with good yellow soap and water in
the spring of 2o1O and after that we
shall be joyously and gratifyingly
clean.
| A student and expert in an address
before the st. Louis Academy of
Science, the other evening, pointed out
that at the present rate of consump-
!stion the coal available in the United
States would be gone in less than
another century. We are using it up
at rate of-well, at rate that takes
several punches like this, "00O," to
express it's cumulative vastness.
| When the coal is gone the smoke
will be gone, the coal smoke colds in
the head will be gone, some of the
laundries will be gone, and, unfor-
tunately, We shall be gone.
