Sir Arthur warned against swinging

or wife. The more they love him,
the worse they treat him" he said.

the intelligent, constructive sympa-
thy he needs.

CHEAPER COAL
BY FEBRUARY |.
Competition in Price and
Quality Soon to Be
Restored.

Lower retail coal prices were pre-
dicted yesterday by Fuel Administra-
tion officials in announcing that all
regulations. except those covering the
distribution of Pennsylvania anthra-
cite. will be lifted on February 1.
The abrogation of the rulings will
permit mines in any section to ship
their product as suits their conven-
ience. Competition In price and quail
ity will thus be restored with a re-
snltiRg reduction in price, it Is said.
In its statement of the forthcoming
suspension the Fuel Administration
said:
Stocks of bituminous coal now on
hand throughout the country are suf-
ficient to provide consumers with BIZ
luminous coal and coke for the winter
season, even If the mild weather thus
far should be succeeded by a period
of severe weather. The average
stocks of bituminous coal for the
country on the first day of January
Appropriated seven weeks supply;
the storage on hand in the regions
most remote from the mines being
sufficient for twenty weeks"

Wouldn't Sleep Double.

Stumbling up into his room the other
night. Sam Prentiss discovered tnat
his cozy little bed was already occu-
pied by someone else.
Some guy who hadn't even taken
the trouble to take off his shoes had
gone to sleep and was saving wood
by the carload.
Sam hOllered down to Bess Camp
bell. his landlady, and demanded an
explanation.
Bess hOllered back for him to close
his face and go on to bed. Sam swore
Ress ordered him out of the house
He swore again. She threatened to
throw him out. He swore some more
Then, coming downstaire, Sam
forced his way into Bess' room and
gave her one minute to explain mat
tiers. Otherwise he said he was going
to do something.
The minute being up. Sam put his
threat into execution and had pretty
nearly punched her head off when the
cops grabbed him.
1t turned out that the stranger in
his room was a cousin of Bess' and
she told him to sleep there.
But there was no excuse at all for
Sam to hit Bess.
The court has never yet found where
man is warranted in assaulting a
helpless woman and therefore it
fined Sam $25.

Only the Red Flag Missing.

Now comes the Ethiopian BoIshe-
wiki.
His name is Theophilus Washington
and he won't work. He don't want
anyone else to work, either, except
where he himself benefits. But he
does like money-and eat! great guns,
he has real German appetite!
He advocates an uprising of the
"downtrodden'' classes and would
dance with joy if he saw a lot of
burglars looting the U. S. Treasury.
When it comes to marriage, his dis
position is rather Turkish. as evil
denced by several female witnesses
against him.
Boiled down, he is nothing but a
loafer. He is even too lazy to shoot
craps, which is some lazy.
He has been warned a million times
to get a job. But he always tells
the cops they have no business ''pus-
secutin'" " him.
So far he hasn't been charged with
murder or drawing up infamous trea-
ties, but then, he hasn't had a chance
yet.
And If the court knows what it is
doing he won't either. He was in
termed for ninety days-unless. he can
furnish a $500 bond to go to work.

But she came anyhow. Soon she
