The responsibility f listribution- rests upon the rail- roads. If they show no foresight anid make no adequate preparation, the public in various sections is naturally going to find itself with either no coal or coal at famine prices. When we learn that the Union Pacific Railroad Company has at, the present moment only 25 per cent, of its freight cars available for| je own use, the other 75 per cent. being in the use of other roads, we| get a glimpse of the possibilities of confusion and inefficiency in| handling coal or freight all over the country whenever an extra de- mand is made upon the railroads. With all the executive genius the railroads have at their command they have never worked out a plan to get a constant maximum of hauling service out of all the cara they own and operate over one another's lincs. The co-operation of railroad | companies in this direction has not equalled their co-operation for the purpose of resisting lower rates or higher wages. Nor in handling coal for their own needs have all the railroads adopted the policy of the Pennsylvania in doing away with contracts calling for a certain quantity of coal each month of the year, accumu- lating instead as much as possible during the summer when the need is less and facilities greater. “The Pennsylvania,” according to a coal expert quoted in the Times, “this year laid in a complete supply in the summer, with the result that i now haa its coal cars all available | for the service of its patrons and docsn’t need to clog the traffic with ite own supplies If the railroads had laid their* plans, sorted ont their cara and got ready last spring for what the prosperity of the country plainly | howed was coming, there need have been no $12 voal this fall.

OU have seen her picture a thousand times-——perhaps oftener than you have seen the likeness of any other woman to all history. Richter’s famous portrait depicts her in efentux dreas, a diamond star iu her hair and with a filmy scarf about her throat, (The scarf, {t le sald, was worn to lide a swelling of the throat glands.) A German writer once advised 4]| his fellow-countrymen to hang her pleture in thelr homes, aa a reminder to their wives and daughters of what perfect womanhood should be. And Innumerable Germans have fol. lowed ihe advice. She began life as one of the five children of I'rince Charles of Meck. lenburg, a gallant, but impoverished, cavairy ofMflcer Who was prothor-in law to King George IIT. of England. Charles was closely related to severs| | monarchs or relgning dukes; but there was no prospect of his inheriting | any of their thrones. So his children were brought up like thoae of 4 other nobleman and were not hedged in by dreary roval etiquette The Princeas Loutse and hor brother and sisters thus had a folly child: hood and were allowed to grow up in a norma! and healthful fashion, with no shadow of an impending crown to darken their fun Sometimes they lived at thelr father's dingy but oftenest and most happtly at bis oF she wns nearly ten did Louies catch even a fleeting glimpas mansion fn Hanover: house.
