GOOD EFFECTS OF TROUBLE
Much Of the Advancement Of the
I World May Be Traced to Those
4 PuonacIousIy Inclined.

Most Of us love trouble-that II.
most Of the human race. Man cannot
remain contentedly out of trouble for
any length of time, 1t seems. And II
you doubt the statement, all you have
to do is to remember the numerous in
stances when you were getting along
all right, and then deliberately "butted
into" something that was not your at
fair.
Take the matter of politics, II you
please. Half of the political troubles
we read about are unnecessary. That
is to say, a lot of the people mixed up
In politics are so mixed for no pur-
pose In this world save that they may
make trouble for themselves or some
body else. For II really makes little
difference to the average man who Is
elected; indeed the average man takes
an interest In politics not because he
thinks by doing so he can best serve
the public, but because he wants q
fight.
OF course all of US like to flatter our
selves that we are doing something for
the nation or the country or group
of people. But the truth is most of
us are doing nothing of the kind.
But, did you know that most Of the
good that has so far resulted to the
world has come from the troublemak-
ers, and not from the peacemakers2-

It Is announced that the patent
rights on an invention that promises
to be of immense importance to the
fuel situation In Norway have been Sc
cured by Norwegian company, which
has been organized with capitaliza-
hon Of 1000 900 kroner, and will begin
the construction Of manufacturing
plant Immediately. The new invention
is Of Swedish origin. It consists of a
process for the conversion Of the waste
from sulphite factories into powder
that can be utilized as fuel. Expert

A statue of st. Olaf was recently

The complaint is general, says a
correspondent, that the shortage of la

the authorized extensions of the state
railroads. The men are leaving the

the seemingly more attractive offers of
private employers, although the gov

POSTAL SURPLUS
NEARLY $6,OOO,OOO
Efficiency OF Service Highest, Says
POStmaSter-General

Washington, Aug. 21.-Postmas-
ter General Burleson today made
public a memorandum incident 10
the announced surplus IN postal
funds for 1916 of S5,742, 445, IN
which it is shown that the efficiency
of the postal service is now higher
than at any time in the history OIL
the country.
Continuing, the Postmaster Gener-
al says:
During the four years OF this Al
ministration the Postmaster General
has paid into the Treasury $12, $780,
900, being a net gain to the general
revenue of $1,162,O61. During the
four years of the preceding Admins
tration, Notwithstanding the postal
service was cut to the core, the Post
office Department drained the Treas
ury of $26, 495,914 to cover postal
deficits, and during the last four
years of the Roosevelt adminlstra-
ton the postal deficiencies reached
the stupendous sum of $4S, 739,637.
The successful handling of postal
finance by this Administration has
been brought about while at the same
time increasing the number OF rural
routes and extensions by more than
10000 and the number of people
served on rural routes from 23,27S,-
29O to 26,3O7,685. 1t has also eX-
: tended the city delivery service to
more than 100000 additional pa
irons of the postoffice, including 243
cities which heretofore had never
been free city delivery. In addition
to all these improvements it has sew
eral times increased the weight and
size limit, and twice reduced the
rates on parcel post matter.
1T also developed and simplified
the postal savings system so as to in
crease the number of deposits from
100000 to $4,000 and the amount
deposited from $30,036,32 to over
900 600 600
