THE COAL SITUATION.

There's coal famine in the East coal famine in the Middle West coal famine in the Far Vest Maybe there's in the South too, though that section made less fuss about it. It impossible for dealers to get enough supply their customers Orders are delayed only partially filed Orders future de livery often refused obliged to shut down and families go cold. And prices high in proportion to the scarcity
 Yet there's plenty of coal in the mines The mine owners knew that people would coal this winter. They knew, should have known about how much would be wanted The railroads too, knew or should have known how many would be needed haul The failure of the coal industry provide adequate supply of necessary a commodity is inexcusabe, and the transportation lines share the blame
 Even the lack of labor, the most plausible reason given is not sufficient The munition factories don't lack labor They pay what the labor wortl-or more, if necessary-and get it. Fuel for American dustry and health is important munitions for Europe And tenth of the price paid by the public of this absurd scarcity be ample to obtain all the labor the coal operators to pro- duce on adequate supply.

bacco; that in order the cigar and last of all in toxic effect, the cigaret.
 Why, then, has the cgaret it's evil reputation? Largely is explained because of this mildness, which enables boys and other persons smoke when they couldn't stand a cigar pipe. The comparative harmlessess of cgares has other unfortunate results too Because smokers their effects little they keep smoking them until the cumulative effect is bad And because the cgaret smoke is much milder than other smoke they tempted to nhale it,, thereby aggravating it's effects
 It doesn't appear, however, that all this reasoning clears the cigaret from blame In the hands of man of strong will and good judgment, it may be the least hurtfu form of smoking One cigaret is much less in furious than cigar But its evil quality is its poisonous capacity but it's power of deceivng It lures the weawilled to overindugence, and fastens the habit them, whereas pipe cigar might by it's greater poisoning power the And fault properly be found with any that chooses to protect its youth from this subtle tempter.
