It will perhaps surprise some people to know that the production of bitum inous coal was eight times as great as the production of anthracite dur ing the year 1902; for, in that year, owing to idleness a,t the mines, the hard coal position fell to where it was In the year 1885. While there is a great deal said and heard of the an thracite industry because it is concen trated in the hands of a few persons and worked as a rule at a profit, there is a vast extent of the country which takes the soft or bituminous coal takes it to the extent of 250,000,000 net tons.

"A sparklit rain of fire will change into a dull rain of blood, and from that to a ghastly green."

A Swiss mechanic claims to have invented an automatic baby nurse. The aparatus is attached to a cradle. If the baby cries air waves cause specially arranged wires to operate a phonograph, which swings a lullaby, while simultaneously clockwork is re-, leased and rocks the cradle. When the crying stops the wires cease to vibrate and the cradle stops rocking. One by one the bachelor's excuses ara being destroyed. A Cure for Rheumatism. Alhambra, 111., March 23d. Physi cians are much puzzled over the casa of Mr. F. J. Oswald of this place. Mr. Oswald suffered much with Rheuma tism and was treated by doctor after doctor with the result that he got no better whatever. They seemed un able to do anything for him, and he continued to suffer till he heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills. Mr. Oswald began a treatment of this remedy, which very soon did for him what the doctors had failed to do and they cannot understand it. This is the same remedy that cured Hon. Fred A. Busse, our State Treas urer, of a very severe case of Rheu matism some years ago and which has since had an unbroken record of suc cess in curing all forms of Rheuma tism and Kidney Trouble. There seems to be no case of these rainful diseases that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure promptly and per manently. Americans are going ;o put up seven thousand miles of barbed wire fence.

It was garrisoned during Napoleon's Imprisonment at St. Helena, and the inhabitants are the descendants of Corporal William Glass, who. with his wife and two private soldiers, preferred to remain there on the withdrawal of the troops. Wives for the two bachelors were obtained from St. Helena, and some women convicts were also landed there fifty years a&o, while an oc casional castaway has Increased the population from time to time. There are now only some seventy Inhabitants, of whom a bare score are men. The climate is excellent, and the residents are very long-lived. The island is only eighteen square miles, and the chief crop is potatoes, but the live stock consists of 0o cat tle, 500 sheep and some donkeys, pigs and poultry. Tobacco and spirits are unknown, nor are there any laws, the oldest inhabitant being regarded as governor.

"Now. here is a curious study, and one, which, if pursued may throw much light on a very interesting subject. Anything relating to piemory, the retentiveness of the human mind is always of inter est to me, and I have noted with much concern these curious physical manifestations when the mind picture liecomes so obscure that its lines are lost. Why should a man snap his fingers when he temporarily forgets a thing? Does this physical move ment aid the mental processes? Does the fact prove the material basis of the mind? It must show a very inti mate connection between the two. After all, the intimacy existing be tween the mind and the body is very close, and personally, I have always believed in the theory which teaches us that psychology has a physiologi cal basis and can have no other basis. The simple habit of snapping the fin Elder Took a Day Off Brother Parker's Explanation of His Fall From Grace His Reward for Forty six Years of Faithful Service to the Church. Irving Bacheller can always tell a jtory of the north country, and this is one of them. . "Up in St. Lawrence county," he said, "there was a God-fearing old man who lived in a small village a few miles from Potsdam. Mr. Parker was an elder in the church, a good husband and father, and a worthy citizen, who was much respected in the community. One day he hitched tip his team and went off with a load of produce from his farm to Potsdam. Night fell, but Parker did not return. His family was much frightened, for such a thing had never happened be fore, and they felt sure that some evil had befallen him. His son went to Potsdam and called at all his father's accustomed haunts, only to find that the old man had sold his potatoes and started for home before, dark. "The family remained in great dis tress all night and until the next afternoon, when Mr. Parker drove in St the big farm gate. The old man's rlothes were torn, his face bruised, a .small portion of his front scalp was A CHANCE TO GROW. New Englander's Comment on Future of Schooner. Sim Tarbox lives in a New England seaport town. He is as simple as he is big and strong, his muscular develop ment being the result of years of la bor around ice houses and on ice wagons. One day when business was quiet SrTn wandered away from his ice wag on and sat down on the stringpiece of a pier to admire a shapely three masted schooner tied up alongside. Gradually Sim's curiosity was aroused. Espying the captain sealed near his cabin, Sim observed: "I say, skipper, thet's a mighty fine boat ye got thaer." "Yes," responded the captain, "she'3 a pretty good boat." After a silence of several minutes Sim again broke out: "I say, skipper, how old be she?" "Oh," answered the captain, "about six years, I guess." "Gee!" said Sim. after what ap peared to be deep reflection and speak ing in his deliberate fashion, as his eyes again swept over the schooner, "won't she be a highster 'fore she's twenty!"

The people are happy In being free from public debt, while the fact that the only taxes are the Import duties on liquor and tobacco may well draw sighs from the heavily taxed people of England. Moreover, there Is prison accommo dation for only eleven criminals, and so rarely is even one cell occupied that the solitary warder policeman puts in his time in the government printing office.

Pall Mall Gazette. gers when one's memory fails for the moment would seem to offer ample proof of the fact. Curiously enough, this same condition, a physical move ment, will manifest itself in many ways under similar circumstances. All men do not snap their fingers when there is a mental lapse which they are seeking to overcome. , They find other ways of bridging the gap. One man will pat his foot when he forgets temporarily. Another will bite .his lip, or place his finger against his temple, or rub one hand across his forehead, or resort to some other effort to stimulate his lagging memory. Why is this? Is one's memory really aided by these physi cal movements? It must be. Else humanity would have dropped them long ago. Almost every man, when he forgets something, a name, for in stance, which is right on the end of his tongue, will make some kind of physical effort to conjure the proper image from its hiding place in the brain cells. Why it is I do not know. I know merely that it happens, and I suppose it answers some good pun pose." mising. and his horse was broken winded and all of a lather. He vouch safed no explanation, but betook him self to bed, where he slept for four teen hours, waking with a rich brown tacte in his mouth. "The matter got noised abroad, and eventually the minister and a brother elder called upon him. " 'Brother Parker,' said the minis ter solemnly, it appears to us that some explanation is due the church of events which have recently trans pired, and we have called to see if you have anything to say about them." "The old man pondered awhile, and then asked: 'How long hev I been a member of the church, boy and man?' " "Forty-six years, my brother.' "'Hev I walked in the ways of the Lord pretty perpendicular during that time?' " 'Yes, Brother Parker, you have served long and faithfully.' " 'Well,' said the old man, 'I thought so, too.

Eight ordinary hen's eggs were submitted to pressure applied exter nally all over the surface of the shell and the breaking pressures varied be tween 400 pounds and 675 pounds per square inch. With the stresses applied internally to twelve eggs, these gave way at pressures varying between 32 pounds and 65 pounds per square inch. The pressure required to crush the eggs varied between 40 pounds and 75 pounds. The average thickness of the shells was 13-1.000 inch. President's Advice to Cortelyou. Stories of the doings of children are always welcome at the white house and President Roosevelt is ready at any time to stop the flow of public business to hear a good story about some other fellow's boy as well as one of his own. When he was ready to appoint Secretary Cortelyou to the of fice of secretary of commerce and la bor he asked: "Cortelyou, how is the measles up at the house?" "Well, we still have the measles, but I think the children are getting along all right." "If you want to knock off a few days between the two jobs and help take care of the children I guess we can arrange it." said the president.

Ha Tired Mother's Touching Story of Anxiety and Suffering. Ctxtictxrst Brings Blessed Cure to Sltii Tortured Baby and Peace and Rest to Its Worn Out Mother. It is no wonder that Mrs. Helena Rath was t?.ken sick. Single-handed, she did all the housework and washed, cooked and mended for her husband, Hans, and their six children. After a plucky fight to keep on her feet, Mrs. Rath had to yield, and early in 1902 she took to her bed. What followed she told to a visitor, who called at her tidy home, No. 821 Tenth Ave., New York City. "I hired a pirl to mind the chil dren and to do whatever else she could. I couldn't stay in bed long. Sick as I was, it was easier foi me to crawl around than to lie and worry about my little ones. So I got up after a few days, and let the girl go, I had noticed that she had sores on her face, hands and arms, but I paid no attention to that until Charlie, my youngest, began to pick and scratch himself. He was then ten months old, and the girl had paid more attention to him than to any of the others. Charlie was fret ful and cross, but as he was cutting1 teeth, I didn't think much of that. Even when a rash broke out on his face I wasn't frightened, because everybody knows that that is quite common with teething1 babies. Sev eral of my others had it when little, and I thought nothing about it. "But the rash on Charlie's poor little face spread to his neck, chest, and back. I had never seen any thing1 quite like it before. The skin rose in little lumps, and matter came out. M3T baby's skin was hot, and how he did suffer ! He wouldn't eat, and night after night I walked the floor with him. weak as I was. Often I had to stop because I felt faint and my back throbbed with pain. But the worst pain of all was to see my poor little boy burning with those nasty sores. "I believed he had caught some disease, from the girl, but some of the neighbors said he had eczema, and that is not ca.ching, they told me. Yes, I gave him medicine, and put salves and things on him. I don't think they were all useless. Once in a while the itching seemed to let up a bit, but there was not much change for the better until a lady across the street asked me why I didnt .try the Cuticura Remedies. I told her I had no faith in those things you read about in the papers. She said she didn't want me to go on faith nor even to spend any money at first. She gave mi some Cuticura Ointment I think the box was about half full and a piece of Cuticura Soap. I followed The agonizing, itching, and burning of the skin as in eczema ; the frightful scaling, as in psoriasis ; the loss of hair, and crusting of the scalp, as in scalled head ; the facial disfigurements, as in pimples and ringworm ; the awful suffering of infants, and anxiety of worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tetter and salt rheum, all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. That Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent are such stands proven beyond all doubt. No statement is made regarding them that is not justified by the strongest evidence. The purity and sweetness, the power to afford immediate relief, the certainty of speedy and permanent cure, the absolute safety and great economy have made them the standard skin cures, blood purifiers and humour remedies of the civilized world.
