RESIN IN COAL.
Greater Quantity Present the
Greater the Heat Produced.
To the head of the family who has
been shoveling coal during the long
winter it matters not what his coal
is made from as long as it gives a
reasonable amount of heat and is paid
for. And yet thie question of the lei-
gredient matter and the geologic pro-
cesses by whicb it is formed is con-
sidered so important by those who
are net simply shovelers of coal that
the United States Geological Survey,
through David White, has made a
study of the sUbJects of the effects
of resits in coals. Resins, under
which is included the rosin of com-
merce, the copal from which varnish
Is made, the amber used in jewelry,
and many other similar materials, are
secretions generated in some of the
cells or vessels in plants of many dif-
ferent Minds. One of the most famil-
iar resin -producing trees is the pite
pine, in whieh pitch la a resin.
Resins contain very much more
hydrogen and carbon compared to the
amount of oxygen than ordinary
wood, so that other things being
equal, the resinous woods make Meech
hotter fires than those containing no
resins, the hydrogen and carbon being
sources of the heat The larger the
amount of heat the hotter the fire.
Many a Mississippi River steamboat
was blown up in the old days, when,
In. order to win a race, the barrels of
resin in the cargo were broached to
feee the fires. Resin aids heat powe
er, not only to ,the woods which coat -
;tate it, but•also to the coals.
These are some of the Interesting
sidelights on a report which is rather
dry reading to the layman. How did
resin get iato the coals and 'Why are
some coals more resinous than oth-
ers? These are some of the questions
that Mr. White answers for the sat-
isfaetion of the student and the effi-
ciency expert as 'well as the Coal
shoveler in the home.
This is why there is resift in deal.

OUR COMMERCIAL CHANCE.
' (London Free Press.)
Whatever the outcome of the war.
there has already been a blow struck at
German trade from which it will
take a geenration to recover.
There has been a prejudice created
againSt german goods that will last
long, It may Mean a great stimulus
for British -made goods in Canada; it
will be better still if It creates it reater
demand for purely Canadian -made
goods.
With the German production shut off.
arid perhaps shut off for yeare, theretwill
be new industries developed in this
country that should flourish after peace
has been brought about. The opines-
cial benefits may be dearly bought, but
they will at least be some little recom-
pense for the sacrifice that has to be
made.

And noW he spends all his spare time
teaching his giant pets all that an edu-
cated elephant is required to know. The
four beasts are housed on a. farm on the
outskirts of Sofia, and every day King
Ferdinand spends an hour or so witn
them, superintending their toilet and
training them. The king has brought
his usual zeal and enthusiasm to bear
on his hobby, and the consequence is
that his elephants would do credit to
a professional trainer. Not only do
the pa.chydertns recognize their ,royal
master when he visits them, bdt they
can. do several simple tricks at his bid-
ding. The king is very proud of his
pets, and whenever his court, is visited
by any one of distinction the royal guest
is sure to be taken to the farm to ad-
mire the great beasts at their work and
play. •

The Kaiser's withered arm and the pe-
culiar niental deficiency of the man may
yet come to symbolize the German Em-
pire. It stands a fine, proud figure of
a nation, able and efficient, advanced
and inVestigating. Yet it has the with-
ered arm of autocracy upon it and a
trace of madness for power. It will
have to cut off the imperfect menther,
and engraft an arm of perfect democ-
racy, and dure its mind with the good
remedies It has, but Whieli have yet been

"MORE SIGI4TI"
(Montreal Evening News.)
It is said that the last words of Goethe
as he lay dying were "More light," and
the Germans might well echo that cry.
Their rulers have kept them groping in
the twilight of a false ambition too long.
More light, more freedom, more pers,ohal
initiative! Let them take their fete hi

BELGIUM'S CASE.
(Chicago Tribune.)
Let there be no doubt. about this. , If
there is one nation In the Europeisn con-
flict which has the unmeasured sym-
pathy and- admiration of the American
people it is Belgium. She has done her
full share of slaty under international
law, and she has asserted her independ-
ence with splendid gallantrY and heroic
sacrifice. If there is any excuse for
Germany's action against her it is only'
that of the direct neceesity. and such'
excuse ceases with it German triumph.
If then Germany insists upon taking
Belgium, she will be punishing Belgium
for doing her duty,
. With suck action Germany's policy
would be stripped naked of moral clahns
and stand forth in the ugly guise of re-
morseless conquest. There would be
nothing left of her elalin then that she
