WHEN OUR COAL is GONE.

While the demand for coal grows
by leaps and bounds the supply Is
rapidly diminishing. Coal, like the
enduring rocks which encase it. Is
definite material. 1t does not grow,
like wood. Therefore the supply may
be accurately figured.
It is only a few years ago that coal
began to be used In large Quantities
Before the perfection of the steam
boat, the LOGON olive and the large
stationary steam engine the demand
for coal was very slight 1t was not
unit. after the great industrial de-
velopment, following the civil war,
that the demand for coal began
Since that day the demand for the
fuel has increased by millions and
millions of tons.
The industrial growth of the world
is due to the substitution of coal
energy for the energy of man and
beasts And the supply of coal being
more or less limited, the casual
reader wonders what We will do for
power when our coal supply IS ex-
hausted The electrical engineer an
swers. utilize our water power, by
changing il into electrical energy.
Coal strata have taken millions OF
wears to form and their total extent
is therefore definite and limited. II
the present increasing rate or coal

acally extinct ~ about 300 years. The

NO MORE BACkACHE
NO MORE MI sERY

Hundreds OF people have been re.
lieved OF the asonies caused by weak,
diseased or clogg ed-,lp kidneys oy
using Solvax, the new remedy that
quickly reaches the source OF all kid
ney complaints.
II you suffer with pains In your
back and sides or have any signs OF
kidney or bladder trouble such as
rheumatic pains, puffy swellings under
the eyes or in the feet and ankles, II
YOU are nervous, tired and rundown.
or bothered with urinary disorders,
you Of your misery.
Solvax is the most potent remedy
yet devised for Kidding the system OF
uric acid and driving out all the pois-
onous Impurities which cause such
troubles 1t neutraiizes, dissolves and
makes the kidneys sift out all the uric
acid and poisons left by the blood, and
renders the kidneys and urinary
organs clean. vigorous and healthy.
Wilkinson & Co., the popular drug
gists, say that no medicine ought to
be paid for unless it does the user
some good. They therefore sell Sol
wax under a positive guarantee to
quickly relieve the worst cases Of kid
new trouble or refund the money. Try
Solvax today and If you cannot see
and feel a decided change for the bet
ter, just go to Wilkinson e. Co. and
tell them you want your money back
and they will return 1t without ques-
ton. This is the strongest argument
that can be offered in behalf of any
medicine.

Voice Of the People

To the Editor Of The Gate City:
There has been and is yet going
on, particularly on the streets, the
newspaper discussion having sub
sided, the condition of the city
finances. The voters think that as
they furnish the money they should
know what has become of 1t and it
certainly does not seem unreasonable
that we should have a plain state
ment from the com missioners that
the clerk can probably make up in
fifteen minutes that will show:
The bonded indebtedness April !,
1914, and what it is now.
The outstanding warrants April 1,
1914, and what now.
The unpaid bills april 1, 1914, and
what now.
The cash on hand April l, 1914, and
what now.
The actual expenses for the last
two years and for the two preceding.
Let's have it.
Yours respectfully,

ableness and with neither shadow Of

The Christian Science church has
been established in each and every
community on the basis OF actual re-
suits in the overcoming of sin and
sickness and in the betterment of all
conditions among those who have en-
braced its teachings. That it differs
from scholastic theology in many re-
spects is true. and from the stand
point of Christian Scientists therein
is its value. It does not, however, diff
fer from any of the fundamentals Of
christianity as taught by Jesus Christ
and His disciples.
Christian Science as "a religious
teaching Is progressive and construc-
tive. It's adherents attend strictly to
their own business and are endeavor-
ing to build up the cause of Christ in
their own way, and without interior
ence with anyone else. and certainly
without the attempt to tear down the
religious beliefs of another. There is
one proof and the utility of Christian
Science which is incontestable, name
ly the proof given by Jesus: by
their fruits We shall know them.
Respectfully.

Combing Won't Rid
Hair OF Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid Of dand-
ruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it'at night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning most,
if not all, of your dandruff will be gone,
and three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruf you may
have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop at once,
and your. hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and never fails
to do the work

will not begin to meet the fuel de-
mand. Nor will the forests that are
RAPIDLY being razed. Scientific re-
forestration, however, may supply the
demand for the carbon needed In the
chemical processes of metallurgy and
the arts. The supply Of mineral oil
and natural gas is also definite.
Utilization Of the energy Of the
waves has been attempted without
much success. Wind power has been
employed and is capable of greater
use where the unreliabiiity OF the
winds can be compensated for by
some energy-storing means. Direct
utilization of the suns heat has been
accomplished in few places with
apparent success; it is capable Of
great development in those places
blessed with almost daily sunshine.
The greatest hope for the future,
however, lies in the useful develop
ment of the energy Of water falls and
streams. Rivers should be developed
not only for minimum flow, but
through river control for average con-
tinuous flow. At present the entire
power demand of the United States
Is about 100000 h. p. Through the
development of all our available wat
err pow ers we could produce 100000
900 horse power without using any
fuel Through long-distance electri-
cal transmission, the energy devel-
oped could be distributed over wide
extended area, thus supplying parts
of the country remote from power
sites.
