cruel and thoughtless criticism among
women. Thoughtlessness of speech has ,

and outlines justly so. It has kept from
her confidences that were hers by right,
It has stood in' the way of her progress.

Coal Wast.
The great quantities of anthracite coal
wasted by the unsuitable methods renort
ed to in preparing it for market is the
subject of complaint by Mr. Harris, tbe
head official of the Lehigh Coal com
pany. These operations, he says, result
in, reducing a large proportion of the
coal to sizes too small fur commercial
purposes, the percentage of waste from
this source averaging as high as !0 per
cent Of the coal hoisted from the col
lieries, this, however, having been some
what diminished in recent years by the
utilization of the smaller sizes of coal. .
Bethinks that this process rescuing
coal from the waste heaps is destined
to go much farther in the more general
use of coal in fine particles. He behoves
that it may not bo going too far to as
sume that improved methods of mining'
and. of preparing coal may Insure the
use as fuel of one-half the cool now re
maining, so that itmay be reckoaed that
there are still not far from 6,000,000,000
tons of anthracite available before the
beds will be wholly exhausted. The
present annual consumption of anthra
cite is about 40,000,000 tons, and this
consumption has for some years been in
creasing at the rate of 4 per cent per an
