" SPEAKING <strong>COAL</strong>WISE."<br />
"Speaking Coalwise" is the title of an attractive<br />
booklet which has just been issued by the Pitts<br />
burg-Buffalo Co., of Pittsburgh, and whose merit<br />
and value is far beyond even the exceptional typo<br />
graphical neatness embodied in it. The brochure<br />
contains a well-constructed appeal to the reason<br />
of the consumer of coal. Its argument is neither<br />
a wild declaration of generalities nor a prosaic<br />
recital of claims. It is a clean, pleasant talk on<br />
coal and coal consumption, with enough humor<br />
to spice it properly and enough fact and com<br />
mon sense, of an uncommon order, to infuse into<br />
the reader's mind the interest and the earnestness<br />
of the author. It is a refreshing departure from<br />
the average mercantile bid for trade and is well<br />
worth the perusal of even the smallest buyer of<br />
coal. The suggestions presented, and which are<br />
implied rather than thrust upon the reader, are<br />
of a character to help not only the business of<br />
the Pittsburg-Buffalo Co.. but that of the coal<br />
trade in general, by placing consumers of every<br />
class in the way of more intelligent buying, and<br />
therefore of more satisfactory results. It is<br />
safe to assert that if the hints and suggestions<br />
contained in this little booklet were to be universally<br />
disseminated and thoroughly worked out,<br />
there would within a brief period be a marvelous<br />
improvement in the attitude of the coal consumer<br />
THE <strong>COAL</strong> TRADE BULLETIN.<br />
toward the coal producer and an immense increase<br />
in the profit and satisfaction of both. The<br />
amount of matter to be digested is small, despite<br />
the fact that it takes in both the coals and the<br />
clay products of this company. There are, too.<br />
a number of illustrations which help to accentuate<br />
the points of the argument, and some testimonials<br />
which should carry weight with prospective coal<br />
buyers.<br />
