Wilkes-Barre Stove and Pea

I
No one kind of coal will give good results under !
every condition.
W ilkes-Barre Stove is usually recommended for
Steam Ileal and Hot Water Furnaces.
1 uder ordiuarv circumstances this is a very good
coal and if we know nothing about the heating plant '
wc always say "I se Wilkes-Barre Stove Coal."
But there are houses where the Stove size is too
large. It takes too long in the morning for the tire
to come up and you must have a strong draft all day
if you want heat.
For such a residence our Wilkes-Barre Stove and
Pea mixed in equal amounts will give much better
results. The small Pea size catches up quickly ami
the dampers need not he opened wide to have good
regular heat.

guards for the employes of the com
l*ny. A Bell telephone exchange in the
othee 01 the convention hall gives the
\isitors a look at the inside workings
ot an exchange, which is more or less
a mystery to the average layman.
One of die most interesting displavs
for economical :uid more efficient ad
ministration of the business office is
that of the Burroughs Adding Ma
chine Company. This exhibit is just
oft the stage in the hall and shares
a booth with the School of Commerce,
which is demonstrating a stenotvpe
machine, an office device to be used
; like a typewriter, but taking the place
of the slower method of stenography.
Aside from the mechanical engineers
and other experts who take in the
show, housewives aud others who know
nothing of mechanics can find much to
interest them by visiting the booth of
; the Harrisburg Light & Power Com
pany, to the left of the big hall. Many
and varied are the uses of eloetric pow
er in the homes and all of them are
j demonstrated by the local company.
The persons whose knowledge of
! oxygen is confined to reading about it
and seeing the small tanks used in the
sickroom will certainly be surprised at
the display of the Superior Oxygen
Company, of Pittfiiurgh. (ireat tanks
that almost require a crane to move
them are showu with smaller tubes for
1 the familiar uses.
The Pennsylvania Steel Exhibit
Few person.; realize the wonders of
the steel industry until viewing such an
exh.bit as the Pennsylvania Steel
Company lias promoted, and it is safe
to say that the processes employed in
the manufacture of steel are a mystery
to the average person. The exhibit is
almost an education in this industry,
Which is likely to get a big boost now
that the steel mills in Europe are closed
on account of the war. The various
iron-ores, some of them from the Cu
ban mines of this company, are shown.
The finished product of the rail and the
frog and switch departments constitute
an interesting display.
Perhaps the Harri«burg 'Pipe & Pipe
Bending Company could create a stir by |
having » display of shrapnel, one of!
the products of' the local plant, now j
that the European war is on, but tho'
companv has on exhibition its better- !
known products, at least to the general
public—pipe bends and cylinders.
Oue of the largest handlers of all
trill supplies in Harrisburg is Henrv
Gilbert tc Son. No matter what part,
of a machine goes bad or what part of j
a machine nystem is wanted, this local
firm is pretty sure to be able to fur
nish it. A oig booth on the right side !
of the hall is just filled with machinery
appliances and mechanical contrivances
to increase the efficiency of a manu
facturing plant.
Robert Ross Jones, another HarnV
burger. a contractor >n lighting, heat
ing and ventilating, has on display in
teresting models of Hie kinds of goods
he handles. The <Millersburg firm. W.
L. Brubaker I Co., manufacturer of
taps and dies, is attracting a deal of
attention with au educational display
| of these products.

FREAKS IN RARERAT.T.
Appaieutly Clever Plays May Some
times Be Pure Luck
Freak plavs make baseball humor
ous, if uot interesting. iSotnc of those
plays are said to be the result of quick
thinking, but as a matter of fact, most
of the mare simply luck.
Curious things happen. A ball fell
iuto a tin can, and, it being impossible
to get it out in time, can ami all were
thrown to tho basouian. Another ball
hit flic end of a uail driven through
the opposite side of a fence and could
not be got- down until all the runners
scored.
A swift hit glances off the pitcher's
hand, is snapped up by an infielder and
thrown to first, putt Lug Uic man out.
Hod hot liners or grounders some
times hit the first or third Irnse bag
and glance awav for singles or even
two baggers.
; The shortest two bugger known was
; \\hen the bull grazed the bat, shot up
a few feel and fell in front of the
plate. As flic catcher reached for (lie
i twirliug ball it glauced from his glove
j and bounded back lo the stand, and
i | the batter made second easily.
; A center fielder saw a mit in the
! way of the shortstop and walked about
j sixty feet in to move it out of the w»v
when the heard the crack of the bat
j an<i saw a hot ball coming straight at
' liini. lie could do nothing but try to
j catch it and did to his surprise. But
he was given credit by the crowd for
• being a great student 'of batters,—,\r

WHAT WAR MEANS
. Wautou Destruction May Mark tho
Progress of an Army
i ''All is fair in love and war." runs
■ | the obi saying, and K. A. Vizetellv, in
! his volume of reminiscences, " My Pays
of Adventure," proves the truth of it.
. Referring to the appearance of the rail
■ way station at Nantes during the
i Franco-German w«t.r, he says:
i "Never since have I seen anything
resembling it. A thousand panes of
II glass belonging to windows or roofing
j had been shivered to atoms. Every mir
i j ror iu either waiting or refreshment
; rooms had been pounded to pieces, ev
ery gilt frame broken into little bits,
i i The clock lav about in small frag
, [ ments; account books and printed
■ | forms had been torn to scraps; parti
[ tions, chairs, tables, benches, boxes,
■! nests of drawers, had been hacked,
| split, broken, reduced to mere strips of
i wood; the large stoves were overturned
1 | aud broken, and the marble refresh
ment counter, some thirty feet long and
i j previously one of tho features of the
' | station, now strewed the floor in parti
cles, suggesting gravel, it was indeed
an amazing sight, tho more amazing a*
no such work of destruction could have
i been accomplished without extreme la
bor.
' 'When we returned to the inn for
dinner I asked some questions.
i j " ' Who did itf"
" 'The first German troops that
| came here,' was the reply.
" 'Why did they do it? Was it be
'! cause your men bad cut the telegraph
j wires and dostroyed some of the per-
I manent way!'
" 'Oh, 110! They expected to And
(something to drink in the refreshment,
room, and when they discovered thai
everything had been taken away they
| set about breaking the fixtures.' ''
' Steam Power
The name of the first man to dis
cover ihe power of steam will never be
{ known. As early as 180 R. C\, at Alex
andria, Egypt, we hear of "Hero's en
gine," a sort of steam-using engine.
From the time of Hero to the seven
teenth century the subject is unheard
of. About 1«01 Giovanni Battista del
la Porta wrote a treatise on the steam
| engine. The great name in the his
tory of steam and its application is
James Watt, 1763.
A Wonderful Gorge
Yosemite Valley, in the southern part
! of the Yoseniite National Park, is a
great gorge about seven miles long and
three-fourths ol' a mile wide, with a
level park like meadow in its center.
The great cliffs which form the wall
, of the \alley rise almost vertically to
} a height of about o,00t) feet, aud iu
' many places arc beautiful waterfalls
which have a vertical drop of from
) 600 to 900 feet.
Two Speeds in Same Wheel
The top of a carriage wheel in pas»-
! ing along the road moves more quickly
! through the atmosphere than the bot
| torn. This sounds absolutely foolish,
| but it is absolutely sound. It is due to
the movable axis or axle. The top of
J the wheel has forward motion plus for
ward revolution. The bottom of the
wheel has the same forward motion
minus backward resolution.— London
