A Good Combination.

The supply of anthracite coal for the
present winter was Of very inferior
quality, and householders are complain
ing bitterly OF the way their furnaces
choke up with clinkers. We have
found a solution for this trouble by
using combination of washed nut
soft coal with the hard coal. II makes
a much hotter fire and does away with
the clinker. A little care and judgment
il needed in applying the soft coal but
that can be soon acquired. Besides,
this combination reduces the cost Of
heating house very materially. Ex.
