Old Time Smoke Nuisance.

We are accustomed to think of the
smoke nuisance as a modern phenome-
non, but Professor V. r. Lewes shows
that it raised so much indignation in
England 600 years ago that a decree
was made forbidding the use of btu
minous coal for fuel. Such fuel was
then a new thing.
In the time Of Queen Elizabeth an.
other attempt to use bituminous coal
was defeated by public opposition to
the smoke. The third effort attained
complete success in the nineteenth cen.

printer is fortunate enough to have
enough work on hand to necessitate
running his presses on Sunday that
he must be asked to contribute the
