 It has been settled, so we are told. that producers of anthracite coal will endeavOr to distribute to dealers dur ing the period from April l, 1922, to April i. 1923. 60R6 of the tonnage taken by the dealer during the 12 months previous. In effect. if last year we bought 1000 tons of coal. we may hope to receive this year, 500 tons. We use the word hope" advisedly. for absolutely nothing is guaranteed to us. State Fuel Commissions have been appointed, and we have already been requested to furnish to the Con- neeticut State Fuel Administrator, fig ures regarding our tonnage taken last year and this. We have furnished the requested figures, and if local Fuel Administrator is appointed, we shall follow their suggestions implie- itly Meanwhile we shall pursue our. own modest efforts to care for the. needs of our customers as we'll as the present unfortunate situation permits. However, suggestions and instruc- tiOns for distribution are of little use when the coal is lacking. Since the miners returned to their duties, we have received from the D. & H. Com pany, the source of our normal and principal supply, pleasing promises and nothing more. Some day they will ship us coal, but how soon and how fast we do not know. Therefore, in order to expedite the delivery of coal immediately required by our GUS toners, we have bought and will re- ceive soon approximately 100 TONS EACH OF STOVE AND NUT COAL This coal will cost us at the mines
 $12.5O Freight. 4.66 Cost per ton Gross ton F. O. B.
 cars here, 1715 Cost per Net ton F. o. B. cars
 here 15.32 We shall store this coal apart from our regular stock and offer it in any quantity not to exceed 6Oqo of your last seasons requirements, for imme- diate delivery upon arrival, at $500 per ton, less the usual cash discount The present advantage to you will be that you will get that much coal soon- CT than we could otherwise give it to you. Our so called normal supply will be distributed when we get It, in lots of not more than two tons to a customer. The above price looks, and is high, but it would be useless to apologize for what is beyond our con- troll If the opportunity appeals to you let us know at once We offer it only to our regular customers, and first come, first served.

If there was ever an astronomer
who was not reverent and wholly

who gaze through telescopes at the

the mightinss Of Him who made and
rules the universe.
Every discovery of nature we
make, every pushing back Of the
