NOT GIVEN NEED OF PRAISE
Inventors and Promoters Of Agencies
Which Have Enriched the World
Too Frequently Overlooked.

History bristles with the names OF
at length their struggles and achieve
ments, and dismisses the inventors and
promoters of the great agencies which
have made modern civilization pos
sible, with scanty, il any, mention.
The invention of printing has had
more influence upon the development
of the race than any act or any ruler
that the world has ever known. and
more than half of those who read this
will not know the inventors name.
The men who invented and devel-
oped the steam engine did more to
tighten human toll and to make pos
sible TO each of the dwellers upon
earth a larger need of comfort and
enjoyment than all the generals who
ever pitted men against their fellows.

Lucid Directions.

The directions that an automobilist
got on Long Island, when he asked
small boy the way to Oyster Bay, are
almost worthy of place beside the
famous reply that Lancelot Gobbo
made to his father when the old man
inquired of him the way to Master
Jews. The boy looked thoughtful,
says the. New York Evening Post. and
then replied:
Go straight up there, and you'll
pass where the watermelon field was
three years ago; then go on straight,
and you'll pass where the corn was
two years ago. Turn to your left, and
turn to your right after that. and then
turn to your right again, and you'll
pass the place where a man was
killed by an automobile last year. II
you'll go along about a mile, you'll
come to where Mr.. Zones lived before
he moved over to Port Washington;

Peru the Land of SUGAR.

Heavy production of sugarcane to
the acre is one OF the surprises Of
Peru. Where it is grown the land is
level and planting is an easy matter.
When the cane reaches the height of
two feet further attention in regard to
cultivation is said to be unnecessary,
and in from IS to "a weeks maturity
is reached. That the growth is luxu.
rious may be known from the fact
that an average crop Of 40 tons an
acre is obtained. while so and even
20 tons is not uncommon. In other
sugar-growing countries, including
Cuba, % tons per acre are considered
a good average. according to sugar ex-
perts.

How to Get Lower lnsuranc.

The leading newspapers in Kentucky
are strongly against the Gienn-Greene
law as an unwarranted invasion of
business by politics. The develop
ments of the past few weeks have
shown that the state insurance board
has been greedily grasping for more
power and revenue, without caring
what the results of it's action might
beupon the busess interests of the
state. 1t wants to force lower fire
insurance rates for Kentucky by fiat.
The way to Get lower fire insurance
rates is to have fewer fires, since the
losses are the basis of rates, instead
of by passing laws which merely in
crease the cost OF insurance and do
nothing to reduce it. The fire in
surance companies have been losing
money in Kentucky for several years
past, the losses having been far above
the normal. Under those conditions,
it was an injustice and business alb
surdity to try to force them to re-
duce rates without doing anything TO
improve The conditions and reduce
the causes of fires. Commentins on
this arl ON the political phase of the
situation, the Louisville Courier
Journal says:
Whatever there is to be said about
fire insurance there can be no doubt
about the unwisdom of letting the
matter of rating become entangaed
with politics. Making rates is a
matter of mathematics. just as max
ing rates for life insurance Is. No
body who is not in a lunatic asylum
would favor abolishing the actuary's
function in arriving at rates Of life in
surance and leaving to board of Of
flee seekers the business of determin-
ing what premium should be charged
to Jones and whether Smith or Brown
should be let to the ground floor. That
seems to be about the sum ad sub
stance of the Glenn-Greene bill as II
Is now shapdd."

MATCHMAKING IN INDIA.
One Scheme That Gave . Missionary
the Surprise Of His Life.


the Surprise Of His Life.
Almost every one who has friends In
mission work in India knows that one
very important function Of the mis-
sionary is to play the part of match
maker to his flock. But few IL any
have heard Of the conditions being re-
versed and the flock turning match
maker for their missionary. That does
occur. however, as the letter written
by missionary who lives at Tut
CORN. south India. tells:
On New Years day, 1911, as i was
seated in my little mud cottage at
TuticOrin number Of people entered
the veranda and tremendously came
into my room, bearing trays Of fOw-
ers, fruits. raisins and sugar. which
they placed at my feet like suppliants
who desire TO gain the hearing of "a
petition. After all due ceremonial ETH
quette had been observed and l had
indicated my willingness to hear their
petition Brother Gnana Draviam, a
prominent lawyer in Tuticorin. began
ltdbinS III dbtiNsS w "hiN ~
the others gave strict attention. 1t
ran like this:
Reverend Sir-YOu have now for
nearly two years bestowed great care
and labor upon us, ministering to our
spiritual welfare and striving for the
health of our souls to such an extent
that you have greatly impaired your
own physical health. and we feel that
you need some one to care for you,
since you do not care for yourself.
We fear lest your zeal in our behalf
may deprive us at once OF your life
and services. Therefore, with pro-
found humility and sincere respect, we
venture to request you to marry a
good woman. who will both care for
you and help u.s."
This was naturally confusing thing
to happen, but l was bound to re-
spond to such an eloquent appeal. and
when the applause died away rose
and answered with considerable effort:

HELEN BE MORE DISTANT.

/ think that both are to blame for
their domestic troubles. Warren
ought TO show his affection toward
Helen more than he does. When he
gets angry and cross she should let
him alone and not bother him. He'll
get over it and come to her. She
shouldn't baby him so much in try
ing to please him. Let him wait on
himself once in a while. She should
not show her love too strong for
Warren; be more distant with him
and try to be as he is at home. You
can soon bring him out OF his rough
ness and Tgliness.
OF course you find a little trou-
BILE in every ones married life, they
she understand one another, be good
to each other, he help her and she
help him. l think Helen will come
out of her loving habits as War
rem out OF his roughness. And the
rest of their lives will be more COM
Portable. And spend happier than
the first two years.

TOO MUCH LOVE FOR WARREN.

In answering the question who is
to blame FOR the Curtis family trou-
bles." my opinion is. that both are
TO blame.
They are certainly Strue to life
characters; but their natures, hab-
its and customs are so far from be-
ing alike.
Helen is continually trying to do
something for Warren in her deli
cate, loving way, while he will ac-
cept nothing from her in this spirit,
so he is so Indifferent and independ-
ent
Warren should try and Danish this
jealous i'll feeling between Helen and
his people, and a great deal of their
trouble would be disposed of.
Shoulpd Helen be of the same type
and character as Mr. Curtis, they
would have everything they ever
had, would be leading the gayest of
gay society lives and little Winifred
would be the same as whole orphan
instead of half. If Helen would pay
no attention to these cold, cutting
remarks and act toward him just
as he acts, be would soon change.
I'm sure he really loves Helen as he
sometimes expresses it; but she
wants him to get out of his cold, curt
way so ba that she loves him all
the more d starts him off again.
If Helen didn't express quite so much
love, and Warren expressed more,
they would both have better sailing.
A WIFE AND READER.
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1914-03-03

/ think that Helen is an only child
and has always been petted and
loved and made much of until she
was married, and she thinks her hus-
band should treat her the same way.
She is to blame in way. but not
as much as Warren. If she would
show her temper once in a while, in
stead of shedding tears, il would
help some, and if she would try 20
think more of his people regardless
of what they think OF her. No doubt
she has a wrong opinion of them.
don't believe if a man really and
truly loves his wife as he should. lie
would get disguised at her caresses,
but would show that he appreciates
her affection once in a while at least
She seems TO De thankful for any lit
tie act of Kindness or affection from
him
If Helen and Warren are not real
people, their married life is taken
from one that has gone through a
great deal of the things that have
been written.

TT TAKES TACT.

The Curtis family are real peo-
pie The trouble lies in the fact not
that they don't love each other, but
in a misconception of things. And
their happiness depends on whether
or not Helen viii ADAPT herself to
her surroundings
1t takes tact and good common
sense 10 have a congenial home life
when a woman of Helen's DISPOSE
ton marries a man of Warren s.
Their natures are different While
hers demand love and demonstra-
ton of love his is undemOnstratiye
and resists. and consequently there
is a misunderstanding, not only in
love, but their daily companionship
If she wants to do away with these
petty differences, it's her TO do the
acting. She must learn to look at
things with his eyes, as he never
would see things in the light she
does
a man of Warren's disposition
thinks they are right and it Is a hard
matter to make them see different.
She should study him and by using
tact she will be able to overcome a
great deal of their trouble.
She Will have to get accustomed
10 his abruptness and GOODNESS, be-
cause it is his way as we'll as it is
hers 10 be otherwise And while
Helen may crave demonstration of
love she will soon not expect It,
They will have to go through the
dear school OF experience, and as
each day, each month and year goes
by their lives will be more congen-
ial and TO certain extent happiness
will be theirs.
With tact and GO to Church sun
day they will soon become broader
minded, and while getting their
minds off of self they will be able
TO see things in the true light
