ton after some social occasion, ask
as anxiously as possible, What was it,
mamma? know something was wrong,
Didn't we treat the other children well,
or were we too noisy? In that house re-
proof was never bestowed unsought--
only commentator of whatever 1t was
possible to commend. was gratuitous.
We think this system would be as good
for those grown-up children, the hus-
bands and wives. as for those still in
the nursery.
There is no surer safeguard against
the temptations that come to young
men and women than a love for home.
1t has brought back and held many a
wanderer in safe place. 1t is some
thing not only to love home but to
know that you love it-and to know
that you are happier at home than in
any other spot on earth.
The idea seems to exist among us
that to be polite to each other in the
family circle is foolish and like putting
on airs. We must rid ourselves OF this
notion and act on the principle that
whatever helps to make our intercourse
pleasanter outside the family circle
should be brought into use there. We
should avail ourselves OF any and ev-
erything that can be used to advant-
age in our daily intercourse. II is no
exhibition of airiness to say thank
you" or If you please" These little
courtesies are Indications OF refinement.
and costing nothing. they help to make
the wheels OF life move more smooth
~. II is not in elaborate attempts at
pollteness that true gentility consists.
1t is in the simple. honest expression
Of the genuine feelings Of the heart
which is interested In tho welfare of
others.
A girl that is not neatly dressed is
called a sloven. and no one likes to
look at her. Her face may be pretty,
and her eyes bright. but II there is a
spot Of dirt on her cheek. and her fng-
ers' ends are black with Ink. and her
shoes are not laced or buttoned UP.
and her apron is dirty. and her collar
not buttoned and her skirt IL torn. she
cannot be liked. Learn to be neat and
when you have learned It. II viii al
most take care OF itself.
ssss
There is no fault 10 hard to over
come as tho hasty temper. We may
make any number of good resolutions.
and then the frat time We have any
provocation away we go without an
instant's warning and before We re-
aiizs what we are doing the unkind
words have been spoken and no mat
ter how much regret We feel they can
not DO unsaid.

COAL FAMINE LIKELY
IORESULT,, SHORTAGE
TO CARS THE CAUSE
MINES NOT SHIPPING OUT ANY
ORDERS UNLESS SUBJECT
TO DELAY.
REGULAR CUSTOMERS SUPPLIED
BY Many Dealers over The Country
Prices Have Advanced Enormously
NO immediate Prospect of Relief
Cars Used for Munitions.

Unless the present car shortage is
relieved, prominent dealers say that
coal famine will result with the
coming of winter. Already the mines
are not shipping out any orders I'M
less they are subject to delay, and
prices have advanced enormously.
Many dealers over the country have
ceased to supply any but their regular
customers, and no long time orders
are being taken.
With reference to the situation a
prominent Columbia dealer said this
morning: "Coal has already advanced
enormously due to the car shortage.
The grades which we formerly pur-
chased at the mines for $1.O0 a ton
are now costing us $3.50 ton and
prices will certainly advance within
short time. We can not even secure
definite promises of delivery at any
time. The reason that we dealers
give for the advance is coal is the
same as the one that produces the
shortage-the car shortage. II mine
can ship out only eight cars a day
where it formerly shipped forty, prices
will naturally go up. The mines can
not secure enough cars to ship their
maximum capacity and their operat>
ing expenses remain almost the same.
Thus we are expecting further ad-
vance in prices rather than decline.
Although the coming presidential
election may have something to do
with the shortage, attribute it entire
ly to the concentration Of cars in the
ports of the east for munition ship
ments. No, see no prospects for any
Immediate relief of the situation that
viii become really serious on the ar
rival of cold weather At present we
are supplying only our regular custo-
mers, and will sell no coal unless we
can obtain almost Immediately.

A Earn That Walks.

The walking fern Is native Of the
United States 1t is found in certain
localities OF the eastern states and
westward to Kansas, usually growing
on moss covered rocks. or near the
bases of cliffs The fronds, when
fully developed, are from aI to twelve
or fifteen inches long, their tips reach
ing down into the moss or crevices OF
the rocks, where they develop young
plants Of two or three tiny fronds. AT
later stage, mass Of fine rootlets
forms and holds the little rosettes In
position. After several months the
long frond TO which the little plant is
attached becomes withered. and the
young fern sends out fronds which pro.
duce new plants 1t is said that In a
few years a single plant under favor
able conditions will develop into a
whole colony.
