PROUD COAL CARS
oVTLAR7 GRAHAM BONNER

Were proud" said the pieces of
coal In one of the coal cars, and then
all the coal said in its dark, coal
fashion:
We're all proud"
A little fairy had come a-nying
along the countryside and had
perched herself upon one of the coal
cars which was being pulled along.
together with many other coal cars.
by three engines.
Now the fairy was wearing long
black cape and black hood and when
people were in sight she hid her face
In her hood so that it could not be
seen.
She was a very shy little fairy.
No one could notice her as it was
and she had come to talk to the pieces
of coal
She had seen so many coal cars
travelling along all through the sum
mer that she had wondered how the
coal liked journeys.
So the Fairy Queen had given the
magic wand which would make every
thing talk and the fairy was now on
he coal cars as Eye said.
"Oh, yes, we're very proud" the
| pieces Of coal said again.
Now you know" they continued,
that this whole train-all these coal
cars are part of freight train. We
are so many in numbers and we weigh
so much that it takes three engines
rs you see, to pull us.
THAT makes us very proud And
coal is important. We know that, but
we like to have others see our i'm
| pOrtance
ave travel along through the coun-
| try quite free of charge. Some one
may pay for our jOurneys-some I'M
known, kind benefactor
"a bcnefactor is some one who does
| kind things like that or who gives
presents.
$50 it may be that a benefactor is
giving us our travelling expenses as
his share in the honor to be shown the
coal family.
Were not sure about that. but It
makes no difference.
"The main thing is we are travel
ing and we do not have to pay for 1t
ourselves.
at is just as well, of course, for
we haven't any money and we haven't
any purses and we haven't any
pockets. But though we haven't any
money we are worth money and that
is very fine.
ITS just as though some one who
was very rich went a-walking without
a pocket book. That person would be
worth the money, but wouldn't have 1t
along with him or with her.
$50 1t is with us.
But were particularly proud not
only of the three engines and the fact
that we make up almost a mile Of
trains and the fact that there are many

enjoying the scenery-but We have
something else of which to be proud"
"Tell me that" urged the fairy.
you've heard the bell ring ut the
railroad crossings. haven't you, fairy?'
Yes" said the fairy, II have"
THAT is to warn people that there
is a railroad crossing and that we're
coming along.
sometimes there IS a flag waved
Mt our approach. But this isn't the
greatest compliment of all. oh no,
there is another we yet have to tell
you about.
1--WE make the motor cars or auto
mobiles wait for us. Yes, indeed, we
do that.
"They may be very proud and very
fine, but we too go a-traveling and
when we do we are given the right of
way along the road we mean to 20.
"And sometimes cars and cars have
gone by filled with coal, one train
after another, and that makes the coal
proud for you see though there is
nothing new about coal its important,
and it has every reason for being
proud" !"
II quite understand" the fairy said
"and | don't wonder you are proud"

Gentlemen:
am a smoker of good tobacco for
over 40 years and have no hesitancy in
saying that of all smoking tobacco
Edgeworth in my estimation occupies
the first place.
Having smoked it for number Of
years in many different parts of our
own good U. S. A, and also Alaska and
Cuba-it has always given me supreme
oke-satisfaction. at all times, any
where. everywhere. regardless of cl:-
matte changes or any other hocus- -pocus.
My object in sending for the free
samples Gf you will forgive me) was
to determine whether or not Edgeworth
was being made any ditferent-that
possibly the samples (like whiskey
samples used to be) were the best and
finest of the whole output.
But on smoking the samples find no
difference whatever, and SO l am con-
vinced beyond the shadow of n doubt
that Edgeworth dl,cdys is of the same
superior quality in all its forms, and
further. that my little joke in asking
for and receiving something for moth
ing will be excused by you on the plea
of curiosity.
In thanking you kindly for your
courtesy in sending free samples,
hereby solemnly promise to fill any
mans (reasonable sized) pipe with
Edgeworth tobacco of my own pur-
chase. to convert him to that reaEJ
good smoke, "Edgeworth."
Very sincerely.

QUESTION OF So SUNDAYS
SETTLED BY TENNESSEAN

The query of Mr.. j. A. Cathey,
published recently in The Tri-Weekly
Journal, asking about the years
which included fifty-three Sundays,
has brought a small-sized flood of
letters to the paper.
Correspondents. all over the coun-
try have sent in the results of the
Investigations as to the extra Sun
day proposition, but it remained for
Mr.. w. E. Bostwick, of Columbia,
Tenn, to settle the whole thing con-
clusively.
Mr.. Bostwick has devised and
copyrighted an ingenius table by
which anybody can easily figure out
the day of the week of any date from
46 B. G. to 300 A. D. He, therefore,
was abb to locate the fffty-three-
Sunday years without any trouble
and his statistics show that there
have been, or will be, forty-five years
containing an extra Sunday between
1888 and 2158.
