Coke.
1t Makes Quicker and Hotter Fire
Than Coal.
From the Utilitu Bu,

From the Utnity Bulletin.
Coke is practically q pure fuel. SCOT
and most of the dust and smoke have
been removed from 1t in making gas
1t Is entirely combustible. leaving only
a fine powdery ash. about half as much
in quantity as results from the burning
of an equal weight of hard coal. The
coke Is lighter than coal. consequently
easier to handle in households It can
be burned just as coal Is burned in a
range or furnace. but requires somewha,
different treatment In firing In order 10
yield the best results.
Being porous, coke kindles easier thar
coal. In furnace use three or four
shovelfuls Of coke should be thrown on
IN the morning and all drafts opened
for ten or fifteen minutes. When there
is a good bed Of fire the fire box should
be filled as full as possible. The drafts
should be left on for ten or fifteen min.
utes longer. then should be shut or and
the check drafts all opened. Unless
the weather is severe the furnace will
not require any further attention un-
til night. II the weather is severe the
fire box should be filled at noon. Coke
fires do not need 10 be shaken out as
much as do coal nres. There should
always be layer or blanket OF about
two inches OF ashes on the crate bars
OF the furnace. This prevents burning
out OF the CRATE and also prevents q
too quick consumption OF the fuel. Al
night tho flre should not be shaken. A
few holes should be run through the
bed of Goals with the poker In order tc
give draft. the fire box should be filled
full. tho fire should be burned under
draft for about ten minutes. then all
drafts should bo shut off and the check
drafts opened The flre will keep woll
all night and there will be a good bed
of live Goals In the morning.
In using coke In ranges care should
be taken to burn II under little or no
draft once II is we'll started. 1t will
give n quicker and hotter cooking fire
than coal.
Coke has hitherto been considered an
inexpensive fuel. Because of its use IN
industry and the heightened demand for
II II is now selling In many places for
more than coal and the gas companies
which are producing 1t from high priced
coal declare that they arc making less
profit on II even at the higher price than
they used tG at lower prices when they
were able to buy cheap coal.

IL is not quite ciedl MAne uShSi'NA
TowysHENp, the outstanding figure
OF the recent Islam wars and cele-
brated as the hero of Eut-el-Amara,
means when he says that there can
be no peace in the Near East so long
as Constantinople is not possessed
by the Turk Military expert that
he Is, and authority on Oriental mat
ters that he may be, the Christian
and civilized world cannot agree with
him that the Turk ever did have or
ever can have any rightful place
in Europe.
The Christian and civilized world
also cannot agree with the apparent
attitude OF the British Government
that under certain circumstances Con-
stantinople should be restored to the
Turk, although that Government de-
ciares it will not countenance such
restoration under the threat and ter
rorization OF KEMAL. the triumphant
conQueror of the Greeks and the
frightful butcher of non-combatants
In Asia Minor.
One of the ghastly disappointments
of the war which began more than
eight years ago was the doubt in
which was left the status OF the
Turks, for centuries the menace of
the Balkans and the blot upon Eu-
ropean diplomacy and history. The
Christian and civilized world ex-
pected, and the Christian ana civil
lized world demanded, that as &. re-
suit of that war the unspeakable
Turk should be forthwith expelled
and forever kept out of Europe. The
Christian and civilized world still de-
mands that this shall be worked out.
II there is any doubt now, what
ever the military success Of KEMAL,
the Oriental genius, against the vain
glorious but impotent passion Of the
Greeks for Asiatlc conquest, that the
Turk should be permanently kept
out Of Europe that doubt is due
solely to the political jealousy of
Great Britain, of France and 0f the
other great Powers of Europe. There
is not one of them whose policy has
not been that the Near East should
drown in a welter of blood rather
than that any first class nation of
Europe should gain an ounce Of po-
litical or commercial advantage out
OF the obliteration Of Islamic power
and influence from the territory
whore the Turk never had any nat
ural right to be and never ought to
be tolerated by European morals, SEN
timents, ideals and Drawn. There is
not one OF them whose international
policy has not been governed by the
repulsive theory that the Turk would
better be lasting storm center in
the European world than that any
petty, miserable, debased Balkan
State should emerge from political
debasement or economic anarchy.
Until the great Powers OF Europe
give themselves clean bill OF health
in respect of a common will and
fixed program. now that the un-
speakable Turk is out of Europe, to
keep him out at whatever cost OF life
and treasure, the American people
win not and cannot put themselves
into the sickening problem OF the
Near East, which continues to be the
disgrace Of the enlightened world.

pare ratesf6f mortality and eXpecta-
>tions Of life at any age in one country
with those Of any other country or
with those in the United States. q
comparison with these countries
shows that except for France, INDIA
and Japan, the rates of mortality
among men and women are less IA
vorable in this country than in the
foreign countries above mentioned.
For example, the lowest annual rate
OF mortality per thousand at birth II
found in Norway to be about 81 Tor
males and CT for females, while FOR
a similar class in this country, name
ly white people. it is about l27 for
males and l05 for females. This N
dicates that there is still much room
for Improvement in this country.
The most important mortality
tables used by life insurance
companies in this country and IN
foreign countries are included IN this
publication.
Life Annuity And Monetary Tables.
Tables Of life annuities and other
monetary tables at various rates OF
interest, based on life tables for this
country, were computed for the ,pur-
poses they serve in legal and bust
ness practice. The values Of life an
nuities are frequently required IN
the settlemnt Of estates, the division
of wills, the determination of the
measure Of damages, and in connec-
ton with pension funds. Until the
appearance of the United States Life
Tables there were available practl-
cally no reliable life tables faithfully
representing mortality conditions as
they now exist in the general popu-
lation of this country.
Construction of Life Tables
The mathematical theory of the
construction of life tables is deveI-
oped in great detail and is illustrated
by photographs of the actual numer-
zeal calculations made on adding ma
chimes in the construction of the life
table for males in the State of New
York. 1910. This portion of the text
will be of great service to all those
who desire to acduaint themselves

The United States


Washington, D. c., Feb. 2.-The
| Department of Commerce, through
! the Bureau of the Census, announces
I that the second, official publication on
I life. tables, derived from births,
deaths and populations in this coun-
! tryais soon to be issued. These tables
show conditions as they existed III
I 1890, in 1901, and in 1910, thus max
ing it possible to study the changes
which have taken place IN mortal'ts
during two decades.
l.. Mortality Varies With the Class
It is shown that mortality at prac>
tically all ages is higher among men
! than among women. In particular IL
/ apnears that the most favorable NOR
tality in this country is found among
/ women. living in the rural districts.
The rural classes, regardless OF sex,
enoiy much lower mortality for near
Nv the entire range Of life than those
living in the cities. While the eXpec.-
tation of life, both among men ana
women in most classes has steadily
| increased. there is no indication OF
anv definite lengthening of the span
of life. In other words, while almost
all classes of persons are living to
an older average age, the limiting
age of human life does not seem to
have advanced.
Change in Two Decades
In 1901 the expectation of life
among white females at birth was
about three years more than among
white males, and in 1910 the excess
in favor of the females had increased
to almost three and one half years;
There seems to have ben general
improvement for all classes for the
ages up to about age 40 for men ana
age so for women, except for the ne
gro population. Above these ages no
improvement is shown, and IN some
cases the mortality at the older ages
in 1910 was actually less favorable
than it was in 1901.
Infant Mortality
An examination of the infant NOR
talitv tables indicates decided I'M
provement in the infant mortality
rate in most classes of the population
The infant mortality in the rural dis
tricts was considerably lower than
that in the urban districts both IN
1901 and 1910, but the difference in
favor of the rural districts was not
as great in 1910 as it was in 1901,
Indicating that the efforts to i'm
prove infant mortality conditions in
our cities are undoubtedly meeting
with success.
Comparison With FOREIGN Countries
Life tables are also given by sex
for Australia, Denmark, England,
France, Germany, Holland. India. ia

We Sc the truth of this statement
in the caricolored flowers, the vivid
sunsets, the birds of brilliant plum
age. But we never see it eXemplifi-
ed more attractiyely than in person
of splendidly healthy woman. How
does nature paint this health? Why,
in the rosy cheeks, the transparent
skin, the smooth red lips of such a
woman. And she molds it in firm
flesh and rounded contours. The all
ing woman is deficient in natural
coloring, and she does not even ap-
pear to advantage in clothes that
would set off her more attractive sis
ter. Many women who long for glow
