You tatk about It-you can’t get along without it—you are wondering what you are going to do if you don't get it this winter. . Bat what do you know about coal? You probably have the same hazy idea which millions of other people have, that coal consists of vast ayed forests which have been hidden for ages under alluvial deposits, or perhaps you Incline to the new theory that It consistsof suc- cessive deposits of plants and spawn of aquatic origin which formed layers of carbonaceous mud of considerable depth at the bottom of the prehistoric lakes— but that Is pretty nearly all you know about thls wonderful <ulng that you worry and yearn for so much, Do you know to whom you are tn- debted for the discovery of coal? Have you Phil Ginter? If you haven't, go to the Pennaylvanta coal regions and ask about him. There you will find that Phil Ginter was the first man, that ever found a black dla- mond, Phil was the Rip Van Winkle of the old Mauch Chunk region and he must be as happy a man as Rip not to be able to see what {s now going on among the scenes of his vagabondish wanderings, What Rip was to our grandfathers along the ‘Hudson Phil was to the hills forming the French roof of the Lehigh Valley, He was a tramp of the Mauch Chunk region—a lazy old Dutchman— who would rather loaf than work and who was fonder of his gun and doy, than of cleanliness and ety, He despised city ways and society and had bullt for himself, away back in. the mountains, a rough old cabin, where he resided with his family, whom he sup- ported by the fruits of his unerring aim.

Among the savants was Charles Cist. a printer, who at once pronounced it “stone coal," and who told Col, Welss that there was a fortune In it, They at once determined to buy Ginter off upon his showing them the place where he had found the specimens. They agreed to Phil Ginter's proposal that they give him title to a tract of land in the locality upon which he could and afterward did bulld a small mill, He had scarcely bullt the mill, however, when he ascertained that it wae owned by somebody else, and that his title was worthles ‘ In the following year, 1192, Wetss, Cist and a man named Hil'gate formed thein- selves Into the Lehigh Coal Mine Com- pany, but failed, Another failure in 1812 followed, In December, 1817, the Lehigh Coal Mine Company executed another leas. this to White, Hank & Hazard.

Tam not saying !t does not take a very Intelligent man to read a newspaper In ten minutes—squeeze a planct at break- fast and drop It, says a writer In Harper's Weekly. I think it does, But I am Inclined to think that the Intelligent man who reads a newspaper in ten minutes Is exactly the same kind of intelligent man who could spend a week reading it If he wanted to, and not waste a minute of {t. And he might want to. He simply reads a newspaper as he likes, He js not confined to one way. He does not read it In ten minutes because he has a mere ten-minute mind, but because he mere- ly has the ten minutes. Rapid reading and slow reading are both based, with such a man, on appreciation of the paper— and not upon a narrow, literary, Boston-Public-Library feel- ing of being superior to it, The value of veading matter, Ike other matter, depends on what a man does with it, All that one needs, in order not to waste time in general reading, ts a large, complete set of principles to stow things away in. Nothing really needs to be wasted. If one knows where everything belongs In one's miad—or trles to, if one takes the trouble to put it thero— reading a newspaper {s one of the most colossal, tremendous and boundless acts that can be performed by any one in the whole course of a human life, If there's any place where a man needs to have all his wits about him, to put things into—if there's any place where the next three Inches can demand as much of a man as a newspaper—where {# it?
