NEW Workers. LATEST SLANG
Word QUAINT" Has Found Much
Favor Among Those Who Affect
The Artistic Life.

"Quaint" is the latest word of the
world that must have new and I'M
common adjective. 1t has quite out
NODDED amusing" In the slang of the
studios and among those who affect the
artistic life. The dictionary meaning
OF the w0rd-"combining an antique
appearance with a pleasing oddly,
fancifulness, or whimslcalness"-has
been quite submerged In the passing
craze for Its use. When the governors
daughter In 1.-THE Tavern" said to the
vagabond. "You are the qualntest man
1 ever knew" she did not really mean
what the dictionary says the word
means. She was admiring his powers
of deduction. But the --latest" word
had been worked into the speech and
that was the desired thing. The tone
always used in connection with
quaint" Is patronlzlng, whether It Is
applied to human being, a picture,
or what not. The user invariably
tries to give the impression that the
object thus passed upon could have
been done ever so much better II he,
or she, had had hand In making It.
To be quaint" nowadays Is to be
ever so slightly damned.-New York
Herald.

MACHINES NOW DIGGING COAL
Inventions Have Wrought Great
Changes in the Methods Of Bringing
"Black Diamonds" to Surface.

With the rupld development of la
bor-saving methods, the coal miner, &C
cordlng to Popular Mechanics Maya
asne, is being transformed into Keen
eyed operator of powerful machine
which not only mines and loads the
coal, but does II in safer and more
economical manner; safer, because the
coal is broken down without the use
Of explosives which tend to shatter the
roof and make II dangerous; and
more economical, because II produces
more lump coal and fewer fines, and
does 1t more rapidly.
One machine developed for this
work consists Of an underwriting
frame with cutter chain and shear
ing frame on each side Of the machine.
In the underwriting frame Is a con-
veyOr. There Is provided a powerful
ram which breaks down the coal onto
the cOnveyor. This ram can be d.
rected at any height Of the coal face.
The machine Is mounted In a pan
and fed forward by means of a steel
rope. When the cut has been made,
the machine Is pulled back in the pan
by means of rope; then this rope 10
hooked over sheave on the forward
side Of the machine and the eye fas-
tened to Jack at the face Of the op-
posite rib. BY this means the ma
chine is pulled sideways the width Of
the cut. This requires about three
minutes. The machine Is then ready
to take another cut.
The machine can be used in com,
'binatiOn with movable storage hop
per provided with loading conveyor.
BY this system the machine operates
continuously during the time the load
ed mine car is being removed and re-
placed by an empty one.

HENRY FORD WILL RUN
FOR PRESIDENT OF U. S.
Builder of Flivers Seeks High Office
And Has Good Scheme
To Get It

There is no longer any doubt con-
corning the intentions of Henry Ford,
builder of Fords, Fordsons land mana
ger of a railroad system Individually
owned to become a candidate for
president.
Ford is smart enough to know that
he could not secure the nomination
at the hands of either the dominant
parties and comes out with his an
nouncement as an independent candi-
date, and nothing but death can head
him off in his desire to run for pres
ident.
And Ford will be a contender for
the place. With three candidates, he
will get a strong labor vote, and no
doubt will run well in the farming
districts Of many states. We would
not take his candidacy as a joke by
any means, and should his name ap-
pear on the ballot, there will be some
hustling on the part of both Demo-
Gratis anr Republicans.
