An old Coal Dealer once des-
"drilled Coal as a “lottery“-—one

There is much truth in this, as“
’E’oal at the best does not run uni-
, I form in quality.
If “Words-like “Best" or “Highi
‘ Erratic" mean nothing in particu-
tar and will not keep your house
Iwarm.
I If you buvnv'our “lottery" tick-

:I'lave you draw a prize and believe
{We shall succeed. Our Coal was"

left Greenwich this afternoon in II
private Pullmancar for a six weeks‘
trip through the South. The. plan is
to spend a large part of the time on
the car, instead of at hotels, with~the
exception. of the time devoted to a
trip to Havana. The project is in the
nature of a. pro-nuptial journey for
Miss Smith and somewhat delayed
wedding trip for Mr. and Mrs. Wood-
cock, whose marriage occurred a year
ago. Palm Beach. Fla, is one of the
points to be visited and it was hinted
today that a. wedding might occur
there on Sunday ncxt. as it is known
that Mr. Smith has arranged to meet
at Palm Beach at that time Rev. J. J.
h‘ltzGerald. at Greenwich, who is now
at Havana.
