PAIN
Pain in the head—pain anywhere, has its cause.
Pain is congestion, pain is blood pressure—nothing
else usually. At least, so says Dr. Shoop, and to
prove it he has created a little pink tablet. That
tablet—called Dr. Shoop's Headache Tablet—
coaxes blood pressure away from pain centers.
Its effect is charming. pleasingly delightful. Gently,
though safely, it surely equalizes the blood circu.
lation.
If you have a headache, it's blood pressure.
If it’s painful periods with women, same cause.
If you are sleepless, restless, nervous, it's blood
ngestion—blood pressure. That surely is a
rtainty, for Dr. Shoop's Headache Tablets stop
in 20 minutes, and the tablets simply distribute
e unnatural blood pressure.
Bruise your finger, and doesn't it get red, and
ell, and pain you? Of course it docs. It's con-
stion, blood pressure. You'll find it where pain
—always. Xv s simply Common Sense.

| coaL IN PENNSYLVANIA IN 1906.
The total production of coal, anthra-
cite and bituminous, in Pennsylvania,
in 1908, was 200,675,617 short tons, hav-
| ing a spot value of $262,208,345.
The anthracite production amounted
to 63,645,010 long tons (equivalent to
71,282,411 short tons), having a _ spot
value of $131,917,694.
The production of bituminous was
129,293,208 short tons, having a spot
value of $180,290,651. :
In the combined production of an-
thracite and bituminous in 1908 the
state exceeded any previous record.
Compared with the total production
for 1905, which amounted to 196,073,487
short tons, the output last year exhib-
its an increase of 4,502,130 short tons,
or 2.3 per cent., in quantity, and of
- $6,938,837, or 2.7 per cent. in value.
All of the increase was in the produc-
tion of bituminous coal, which showed
a gain of 10,879,669 short tons over the
1905 production. Anthracite produc-
tion, however, decreased 6,377,439 tons.
James E. Roderick, chief of the
Department of Mines of Pennsylvania,
reports that in 1906 there were 567
men killed and 1212 injured in the an-
thracite mineg, and 477 killed and 1180
injured in the bituminous mines. In
the anthracite regions 43 fatal acei-
dents were due to explosions of dust
1 and gas, 214 to fall of roof, 28 to ex-
plosions of powder, and 171 to other
causes inside the mines. There were
101 fatal accidents outside the mines.
In the bituminous regions 10 deaths
were due to explosions of dust and gas,
305 to falls of roof, 1 was due to an ex-
plogion of powder, and 139 resulted
from other causes inside the mines.
Twenty-two fatal accidents occurred
outside the mines.
Pennsylvania alone produces more
coal than any other state or country in
the world, except Great Britain and
Germany, and its output exceeds the
combined production of Austria,
France and Belgium, which rank, re-
spectively, as fourth, fifth and sixth
among the coal-producing countries of
the world.

COAL IN MARYLAND IN 1906.
The coal prcduction of Maryland in
1906 amounted to 5,435453 short tons,
having a spot value of $6,474,793, ex-
ceeding the production of 1905 by 326.
914 short tons (6.4 per cent.),and reach-
ing the highest figure in the history of
the state. The maximum output prior
to 1908 was 5.271,609 short tons, mined
in 1902, when the anthracite mines of
Pennsylvania were idle on account of
the great strike which made that year
notable in the annals of coal mining.
Compared with 1902. the output for
1908 exhibits an increase of 163.844
short tons, or a little more than 3 per
cent.
The coal-producing area is contined
entirely to Allegany and Garrett
counties, in the western part of the
| state, and from this area, estimated af
510 square miles, there has been mined.
up to the close of 1906, over 142.000,000
short tons of coal. The output has not
varied materially in the last ten years,
having ranged from a minimum of
4,024,688 tons in 1900 to the maximum
of the last year, and averaging 4.853,-
761 short tons for each year of the dec-
ade. The restricted area of the field
and the fact that it is already well de-
veloped make it improbable that any
marked increase in production will be
obtained.
The total number of men employed
in the coal mines of Maryland in 1908
was 5438, who worked an average of
*250 days, against 5048 men for an aver-
age of 252 days in 1905. The average
production per man in 1908 was 9443
tons, and in 1905, 858 9 tons. The daily
average per man was 3.41 tons in 1905
and 3.38 tons in 1906.
Practically all the mines in Mary-
land are operated 10 hours a day. Out
of a total of 6438 men employed in the
coal mines of the state, 6358 men, in 45
mines were reported as working 10
hours a day.
According to the report of the Mary-
land Geological Survey. coal was dis-
covered near Frostburg in 1804. The
first shipment was recorded by the
Cumberland Coal Trade in 1842, but as
early as 1830 some coal had been load-
ed on barges at Cumberland and float-
ed down the Potomac to Washington.
This method, however, was so destruc-
tive to life, and was the cause of so
much loss in coal that it wag soon
abandoned. The first shipments over
Chesapeake and Ohio canal from Cum-
berland were made in 1850.

Tho Oil Producing States and How
They Rank.
Petroleum is produced in the United
States only in Indian Territory and the
following named states: = California,
Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas,
Kentucky, Louissana, Michigan, Mis-
souri, New York, Ohio, Oklamoma,
Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas,- West
Virginia and Wyoming.
Pennsylvania at one time produced
all the petroleum used in the United
States, and long after other states had
producing wells, Pennsylvania produc-
ed more petroleum than all the other
states combined. But the Keystone
state no longer ranks even first in the
production or value of petroleum, as
her oil territory is becoming exhausted.
In the quantity of petroleum pro-
duced, California now leads all other
states, but the product is of a very in-
ferior quality, and in the value of her
petroleum products, the Golden state
ranks only 5th, while Ohio ranks first
and Pennsylvania second in petroleum
value. In the value per barrel of pe-
troleum, Pennsylvania still ranks first,
as no other state produces so excellent
a quality of petroleum as the old Key-
stone state. :

Sle
London Capitalists Start Factory in
Sweden to Convert Peat Into
Paper, Through an Ameri-
can Process.
The peat bog furnishes the latest
substitute for wood in the manufacture
of paper. Paper making from peat on
a commercial scale has already begun
in Sweden, where a company, capital-
ized at more than a million dollars, has
made extensive purchases of peat bogs
and prepared plans for the erection of
mills for turning out wrapping paper
and paste board.
The money for the enterprise comes
largely from London, but the process
by which the vegetable fiber of the peat
will be converted into paper is covered
by an American patent. An account
of the successful launching of the en-
ierprise is given in a report of United
States Consul, Mr. R. 8. S. Bergh, of
Gothenburg, Sweden.
This is not the first effort at paper
making from peat. Some years ago a
paper mill was operated by water
power at Culbridge, Ireland. The
patriotic people of the neighborhood
put forth their best efforts to place the
new commodity on the market, and it
wns enthusiastically announced that
“making paper from the soil of old
Ireland an established industry.”
However. it remained for American
tests to satisfy capitalists that peat-
made paper would command a price
that would make its maRufacture prof-
itable. It is claimed that a ton of
paper worth thirty dollars can be made
from peat at a total cost of fifteen dol-
lars, thus leaving a satisfactory margin
of profit. Tt is further claimed that ii
takes only two hours to convert the
peat into paper.
is
It should not, however, be expected
that peat as a materinl for paper mak-
ing ean take the ploee of wood pulp for
all purposes. If it helps to meet the
demand for the coarser grades of paper,
and thus relieves the pressure upon the
timber supply, it will do a great deal
for the forests of the United States.
The quantity of peat in the world is
enormous. It exists in all the coun-
tries of Northern Europe and has been
used as fuel for centuries. Deposits
from ten to fifty feet deep and many
miles in extent are not unusual. Si-
beria has thousands of square miles of
peat, and much exists. in the United
States and Canada. It is a vegetable
substance, deposited by slow accumu-
lations during thousands of years. the
process being similar to that by which
coal was formed.
Many good qualities have been
claimed for paper made from peat. It
is said that an article wrapped in it
will not be attacked by moths, and for
that reason it is assumed to be pecu-
liarly fitted for boxes and bags for
storing furs and woolen clothing. It is
further claimed that a process of
bleaching will give the paper a snow-
white color, and thus make it equal to
the best pulp papers for printing pur-
poses, but this claim does not appear to
have been established by actual tests
on a commercial scale. Wrapping
papers, card boards, and paper boxes
made from peat possess greater
strength than similar articles made
from straw. :
WHEN A MAN TELLS YOU it does
not pay to advertise, he is simply ad-
mitting that he is conducting a busi-
ness that is not worth advertising, a
business conducted by a man unfit to
do business, and a business which
should be advertised for sale. tf
