Clever Woman Invents Process for
Briquetting Waste Coal Dust.
New York, Dec. 5. Miss Pauline
Grayson, a versatile woman of this
city, has discovered a process for
briquetting coal dust which will
make commercially useful the mil
lions of tons of that waste material
now plied about the mouth of the
coal mines of tho country.
Co-incident with the cut in the
price of foodstuffs reported in differ
ent parts of the country sho Is con
vinced that her discovery, which
she has had patented here and
abroad, will prove an important
factor In lowering the cost of living.
To emphasize this she calls her
briquettes "Economy Coal."
In pointing the way how to turn
to practical account the huge culms
of dust which have for years been
accumulating 'in the coal regions of
Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio,
Illinois, Tennessee, and other states
she believes she has solved one of
the hardest problems coal opera
tors have bad confronting them ever
since anthracite and bituminous
coal -began to be mined.

process will give distinct value to

''I celebrated it yesterday in Wash

one I have enjoyed most. President

me think of what a glorious custom
ours Is of giving annual thanks to
God. In this we excel tho decaying

Dickens, after a life In which he

one, as large families go. The fact
that, some of his grandchildren to

Nor can we confess to any strong
sense of national shame that the
estate of Dickens was not larger.
Let us not be misunderstood on this
point. That, his stories were print
ed in this country and that he did
not receive his share of the profits
accruing from their sale was mon
strously wrong. But It was only In
proportion to his p6pularity that the
wrong was any greater to Dickens
than to hts contemporaries. And if
to any Englishflrflter the American
people tried ,td make reparation for
.nil' Injustice',' that .writer was Charles
Dickens.- ' Turn to page 434 of the
second volume of the standard edi

were New Bedford ($1,640), uocnes

and Providence ($2,140). Albany
and Worchester averaged something
less than $2,400, while Hartford,
Buffalo, Baltimore, Syracuse, New
Haven and Portland rose to $2,600.
Washington's last night was $2,610,
