Early Use Of Coal In Britain.

Some say that coal was used by the
ancient Britons; at al! events, It al
an article OF household consumption to
some extent during the Anglo-Saxon
period as early as s52 A. ID. II GER
tainly was known there In the thir-
teenth century. as II evidenced by n
charter given In 1920 by King Henry
III TO the inhabitants Of Newcastle-on-
TYNE for the winning Of the numerous
coal mines In that region. II was,
however, not until 1860 that the Paris
Ians got English coal from Newcastle.
Subsequent coal mines were discover
cd in various parts Of France, notably
In the departments OF Pns-le-C Calais
and the Loire. In America the depos.
its near Richmond. Va. were discover
ed in l7Ol, and mining was begun In
I7Ol, while anthracite was FIRST pro-
dnced In 1903.

Billets for soldiers who fight on the
western front can be anywhere. But
the strange; place that any fighter
had TO put up for the night on the
fighting lines Is shown In this British
official photograph. A great concrete
tank which turned over in n bonn
bardment Is being utilized by the Tom.
mics and they have made n real coy
home Of the huge cylinder. They are
shown here going In for u rest. The
picture Is an excellent reminder OF
the old lady who lived in n shoe with
her immense family. This home Is
Just as different from the average hab'
itation as the shoe, and the family OF
Tommies who lodge here is equally
immense.
