Read the passage
All over the country of China there is a kind of black
stone existing in beds in the mountains, which they dig
out and burn like firewood. If you supply the fire with
them at night, and see that they are well kindled, you will
find them still alight in the morning, and they make such
fine fuel that no other is used throughout the country. It
is true that they have plenty of wood also, but they do not
burn it, because those stones burn better and cost less
