' LWSTKIAL TOPICS.
Coke production ond output In tho
Connellsvllle region for the week ended
April 20 took unother tumble, the form
er being In the neighborhood of 12,000
tons less than for the preceding week
Shipments do not show this much of a
slump In the demnnd, thus indicating
that some of the coke that has been
standing unconslgned on board cars
for the past two or three weeks was
shipped out of the region. However
there ure yet several hundred cars load
ed without destination. The number
may be decreased this week.
Washington and Greene counties ore
worked up to a keen pitch of excite
ment over the probability of the sale
of a large area of coal lands, an area so
large as to embrace 60,000 to 80,000 acres
and possesses a value of not less than
$l,i00,000. The country Involved In
cludts the southern portion of Somer
set and South Strabana townships, the
west side of Tike Run and East Uethle
hem, nil in Washington county, and a
large Bcope of the townships of Morgan.
Washington and Jefferson In Greene
county. The options that had been
taken in this field for Philadelphia cap
Itallsts expired April 1, without the
one-third of the purchase money being
paiu aown as the agreement called for,
It Is believed, however, the transfer will
yet be made. The price paid per acre
on the west side of the field Is $20, but
lurtner east the rate Is higher.
A more exhaustive study of the Read
Ing's March statements shows that net
results were due almost wholly to
economies in oiieration of the proper
ties, rnis is proven by a comparison
or the March and February statements.
It is a well known fact that the com
pany's coal tonnage was considerably
larger last month than the preceding
month. Untjer ordinary circumstances
gross earnings should, therefore, show
an increase, but the Stockholder finds
by examining the statement of the Coal
and Iron company that gross earnings
last month (with a much larger ton
nage) were $326,436 less than in Febru
ary. It is evident, therefore, that the
Reading received a much lower price
for coal sold In March than In Febru
ary, and yet in the former month there
was a profit from mining of no less
than $123,710, against a loss in Febru
ary of $63,176, thus making, the net
cnange ror Alarcn over February $186,
8S6. This showing was made possible
by a heavy reduction in expenses.
The Philadelphia Stockholder thinks
It Is quite probable the present week
will determine whether there Is to be an
open war between the various anthra
cite coal Interests, or whether another
effort will be made to adjust the ques
tions In dispute. Unless the sales
agents, at 'their adjourned meeting to.
day, agree as to the May output we
may expect continued unlimited pro
duction, which Is now In force, and
which. If kept up for a week or two,
will find the markets flooded with coal,
to the detriment of prices. Indeed, sales
have been already made at figures be
low those recently ruling a level the
lowest known for several years past.
The excuse offered for some of the
collieries being put on full time, that
they be enabled to make up their
month's allotments, suggests that some
of the companies failed to observe their
agreement to restrict production earlier
In the month, for the output up to
April 20 was on a basis which. If con
tinued to the end of the month, would
swell the total for the month to several
hundred thousand tons In excess of the
agreed output.

Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Gardner left

the funeral of their niece.
For some time past the Independent
has been advocating a greater
Honesdale., The Independent has
taken the proper position in
working 1 for the borough's en
largement. We now have a trading
population of some 8,000 people who
live within a radius of three-quarters
of a mile from the borough center,
whereas we are actually known as a
borough of 3,620, This Is unjust to our
selves and a detriment to the advance
ment of our town. We bespeak a
rapid growth for greater Honesdale.

Indicate as surely as any ithysical

K'uns u i id tissues of tho body arc not
satitilied with their nourishment.
Thoy draw their sustenance from
the blood, und if the blood is thin, im
pure or insiilllciciit, they are in a state
of revolt. Their complaints are niudo
to the brain, tho king- of tho body,
through tho nervous system, and tho
result of the ffenend dissatisfaction is
what we cull Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla
nation of tho whole mutter.
Tho euro for Nervousness, then, is

nerves, tissues and organs will have
tho healthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then

That this is not theory but fact is
