Th New Tork Central Railway Company haa Juat contract ad with th peat com panlea of New Rochell to aupply It with peat for operating Ita engine on that dtvlalon of th eyetem. Therefore.

Its composition Is tb same as that of coal and lignite In fact tha three are practically tha same eicept la tha effect that preaaur or lack of preaaura haa had on them. The depoelta of YrgetaMe matter lying at a depth and covered with heavy layers of earth wer compressed and mad Into a denaa carbon coal; tha depoalta lying; almoat on tha surface of tha ground and cot subject to aa great preaaura becam llgnlt. and th depoalta lying oh top of th earth and practically without preaaure on them became peat. The denoatt that haa been discovered So. also, I am convinced that we talk too meh.

it seems to be a tacit understanding among people that ar living on a high scale of civilisation that, whenever two or thre ar gathered together, there must be conversation going on. At least thla true among women. Men live more according to th promptings of natar In every way than Thy hav broader understanding. la rarer faiths and are generally more Independent of each other then women. They at one dispense with little civilities with which women constantly nag each other, and which, tn time, wear on frlendahlp and often eaua young peopl to feel aa poor Marl nashklrtseflf must hav don when she exclaimed.

"We endure our relative and choose our friend." Far It from me to speak slightingly or relatUea. I think the fain teat Uttla tie of blood la atronger than any affinity, but really on doe get tired of knowtng Just what a person la going to say and Just about what tlm of day I going to aay It. two wasbstanda, two table. to. the moaqulto.

In the spring month of the year th entire part often la covered with and even at thia aeaeon of th year Is somewhat soggy and does not afford very firm focHIng. Attempts hav been made to farrn parts of It, but the crop planted grew rank, and at last It waa permitted to revert to th awampy state.

So Uttla waa Ita worth appreciated that when Mr. H. Col llns's father divided hia land among hi children be threw In th thlrty acr swamp, which was surrounded by tb land apportioned to her. Colllna Remembered the Big Fir. Until her husband began' to Investigate, th possession waa counted almost as having; less than do.

Colllna remembered that back In 1S73 soma hunter who wera croaalng the swamp tn dry season dropped a match Into the grasa and thua started a fire that burned deep Into th ground and raced until It waa drowned out by th ralna In the fall. Th place of the fir la marked by a atnk hoi to day. i Recently Colllna took soma of th deposit to Boston and New Tork and exhibited It to peat experts In those cltle. who pronounced It a very fin grade of pur bog fueL Th experts became deeply Interested, and when he returned to bla horn began to receive order for sample.

I frequently wonder why are always on th alert for th Uttl hidden meaning too. 1 a fwnlntn tiatu If a man aay a anything to another man tt la taken for granted that he mean It. But women scarcely ever believe the word, they are ao much more accustomed to believing' the eya or the band or th line around th mouth.

I hav known' two women who had ahallow eye. They kept me nerroua. because whenever I waa talking to them their eye gar me the Impression of meaning quite the reverse of what they were saying. If they were cordial, thetr eye wer indifferent. If they seemed indifferent their eye were eager.

Thia gave to them an appearance of Insincerity that mad feel Insecure In their preeence. I hav also known people who eye turn whit when they get angry. There Is a typ of gray green which loeea It color when its owner goea Into a I would aa soon face an Ill natured bull a ten acre field, as a woman when I this pal glow lighting no, not lighting; that Isn't th word th eye doeaa't light with It. rather It pale, as' the sky doe sometimes when the elements are aboit to go on a rampage. I often sronder bow caa ao misunderstand' each other as to get really furious; how can misunderstand ourselves aa to find Justification In our attitudes of anger toward each other.

"Middle class" Is a broad classification and Include you and me, no doubt. IMMUNITY THE WHIRLWIpTD AND THE TEMPEST SPEAK.

Most of the machinery that 1j used In this industry ccmes from Holland. Thonsh the rot aoft and pliable. It Is necessary to disintegrate It thoroughly In maklne hrloks of It.

By this proceaa the tar and other products are freed. The peat la formed into brlckettea that are aa solid and as black aa coal, by subjecting It to heavy preswir In molding. This process which coats the brlckette with tar exuding from the prat ltelf. Is romewhut expensive. The pent deposits contain a great deal of jtas and thia fact will be taken Into consideration In planning the development of the bog.

In fact. It Is from very similar vegetable deposits, buried deep In the ground, and covered i with an Impervious shale covering, that natural gaa comes. In these deposits chemical distillation carried on and tha lmpervloua shale covering holda the gas and oil thua distilled. Indiana to be Great Peat Th discovery of rood peat deposlta around Indtanapolla calls attention to the fact that Indiana sooner or later la to come to the front aa a peat producing Ftate. It may ba aeveral decades, but this seems almost certain In the days when fuel of other kinds becomes high In price or scarce In quantity, aa It haa In Europe.

'Large parts of the Kankakee swamp territory In the northern part of the State are peat deposlta, containing pure peat of the highest grades. There are other large deposits elsewhere In the northern part of th State. In dry years reports coma, from these parte that the "earth la on fire," and often these Area continue for weeks In fsct. until the fall ralna drown them out.

A aum of $100,000 baa been aat aside, for ascertaining the extent and location of peat deposits In this country. Many regard It aa the future cheap fuel, and it Is thought that the cost of manufacturing It can be reduced to lass than 1 a ton.
