THE PROOF of the pudding
is in the eating. and of Coal in
the burning.

Speaking for ourselves let us
say. we have the goods. the ex-
perience, the ability and the dis-
position to furnish you with the
right Coal—the kind your furnacr
or range needs to make it do it:
best.

Evgyone must decide for him-
self in buying Coal whether he
prefers assured quality to possible
good luck.

Better be safe than sorry.

THE COW AND HER STUFFED
CALF.

‘ i know of no bettbr single illustra-
tion of the animal's point of view than
Lloyd Morgan's story of the cow who
would not stand to be milked unless
she could lick her calf meanwhile. A
succession of offspring had stereotyped
this absolutely irrational habit. until.
by ill fortune. one of her calves died.
There is no reason why a bereaved
mother should mourn her loss Just at
milking time; but there was the fixed
habit of making certain motions. The
farmer. however. was a practically psy-
chologist. ~He stuffed the skin of the
calf with buy and let the cow have
that to lick. To be sure. the hay calf
had neither head nor legs—but. a cow
had no general idea concerning the
nature of calves. nor any special rea-
son for assuming that calves should
have heads and legs. it felt right
and it smelt right. it enabled her to
go through the customary emotions at
milking time. Therefore it was and»
cient. "By dint. of caressing and lick-
ing her little calf. the tender parent
one fine morning unripped it. The hsy
issued from within, and the cow. man
ifesting not the slightest surprise or
agitation proceeded tranquilly to tie
vent the unexpected provender.’ '-—E.
T. Brewster in McCIurefls

A FAMOUS LIBRARY.

 

Origin of the System of "Boning" For
College Examinations.

Just bciorc examination time col.
lege students begin to study at top
speed: Usually they call that unwant-
ed occupation “cralnming.” "grinding“
or “boning." The. first of course
means literally stuffing knowledge into
themselves. The second was suggest-
ed b\ the phrase about keeping one's
nose to the glnlndstone but how about
"boning?“ it was a grateful student
who thus dubbed the process of ab
sorbing information. for be named it
after the "trot“ or "pony" that he
used.

It was the'famous Bohn library of
translations to which the English stu-
dent resorted as an ever ready help in
time of tmnbie. Henry George Bohn
started this library in 18th, and began
what afterward became a big business.
For one thing, he began purchasing
“remainders"—-that is. the old plates
of standard works and translations.
and printing cheap editions from them.
Bohn found the publishing of stand
ard and foreign works in English so
profitable that he developed the busi
ness. and it used to pay to buy transis-
tions from the poor back A. 11‘s who
were glad enough to get a farthlng or
two for their knowledge

Finally practically all the ancient
classics and some modern ones were
obtainable in the Bonn library. and so
popular did they become among stud-
ents that Bohns German was turned
into English. and "hoping" was hencc~
forth recognized as digging into dead
writers' works by means of the. craft)
publishers troiisiations. -New York

trip. it was night when they left
Grand Junction. and they were well
on to (amnison when the accident
took place. The night was pitch
dark and Duncan failed to see that
part of the bridge wan washed away.
There was one fateful moment
which llill Duncan. one of the best
loved men on the force. and Josh
Zulglcy lost their lives. How many
passengers on the fated

known. '

After the accident. among the su-
perstitious there was some little hesi-
tancy in taking out the engine. but this
was quickh dispelled and Engineer
Godfrey one bright. beautiful night.
took 107 to make the trip to Gunnison.
