HOW TO USE COAL PROPERLY
House Should Not Be Allowed to Be-
come So Warm That Doors and
Windows Are Opened.

IL you want to save coal never al
low the house to get so hot that you
have to throw open the windows and
doors. Thermostats are cheap these
days. They automatically slow down
the fire when the temperature is ris-
ing to the uncomfortable point.
To get the most out Of the heat in
coal, the house air should be changed
once an hour. Arrangements for such
change should have been made when
the house was built. But if that was
overlooked when the house was built
you can get the change of air in sew
eral ways, says a writer in the Ameri-
can Magazine. / do not believe in get
ting this result by having loose win
dows, as we used to do on the farm.
/ prefer tight windows, carefully
weather-stripped. If that has not been
for, or if the cost is too
great, | find that storm windows are
relatively cheap. Then, air slots which
let in air when you want it are good.

RAILROAD WRECK
Three Deaths Caused by Trains
Crashing Together

Three men were killed in rail.
road wreck which occurred a short
distance this side of Nashville last
Saturday night. Two other men
we're seriously injured but will re-
cover. The killed we're Fireman
Ebert Richards, Engineer Eugene
Insolvency. and Fireman Win Ed
dlns. The injured men are Engin-
eer Charles Yarbrough and Brake
man G. D. Bailey.
The accident occurred on what
is known as "Dutchman's grade,
and it was caused by number of
freight cars, that had been cut
loose from a stalled train, running
wild down the steep grade and
crashing into a double header that
was climbing the grade heavily
loaded.
1t was a fearful and most de-
structive wreck. The debris was
piled in several places fifty feet
high. The cars we're we'll loaded
with freight much of which was
destroyed.
1t has been ascertained that
twenty-seven cars were involved
IN the collision. Twenty one we're
shattered and six others must un-
dergo repairs before they can be
used again. The two large Bald
win engines were almost complete
ly demolished and will not be fit
for further service. The destruc-
ton means loss ofapproximately |

Trains were delayed several
hours on account of the wreck.

thought Of the state and nation is

SULTAN is FOND OF READING
Turkeys Ruler for Weeks at 9 Time
Shuts Himself In Private Suite,
Surrounded With Books.

Although the sultan Of Turkey is
reputed to be the LATEST potentate in
Europe he is passionately fond of
reading. For weeks at a time he will
shut himself in his private suite. sur
rounded by literature of all kinds
classical works, novels, magazines and
newspapers. With the exception of
his personal attendants and ministers
of state, no one is allowed In the inn
perial sanctuary during the sultan's
literary fits"
But the sultan is at something of a
disadvantage, says British weekly,
because his knowledge of European
languages is limited.
In order to overcome the difficulty
he employs a translation Office. Here
there are officials who speak all the
languages Of Europe and the East.
They read all the political and Illus
trated newspapers of Importance, and
translate extracts from them for the
sultan. There are Is superior trans
lators, called dragoman secretaries, in
that Office and their pay is from ten
to forty Turkish pounds monthly.
They do not limit their TRANSACTIONS
to political publications; they trans
late novels and rOmances In all Ian
guages for the Sultan, and many
thousand volumes of their work have
found their way into the imperial lib
rary. They are all written on thick,
white, royal, octave, gilt-edge paper,
and are fastened together with
green and red ribbons by the translas
tors themselves.
After circulating through the harem
they are preserved in the library. The
sultan's fayorite reading is criminal
'Omances. He subscribes to all news
papers that contain reports of the
in the law courts, and
here is no famous writer of stories
of>crime in any language whose works
nave not been translated for him.
