SOUTH MINI). INDIANA, sviN; and stccicss. A great banking hu issues, a.s an .idvertl.ement, thi.-s iuotation from J am cm J. Hill: if you want to know -whether you arft to be a sii''ct or failure in life. jo, j can ca.'ily find out. The test is; simple and infallible. Are you able . . to save money If not, drop out. Yu will loe. You may think not, but you will lo:e as sure as you live. The seed of success is not in you." James J. Iliil has far too sound s'-nsc and far too Vviwe a vision ever to have said this without qualification. The mere savinjr of money helps to success in petty business; in largo business it helps but little; and in the professions, the sciences, the arts and in any line of endeavor that tends toward vh physical, social, intellectual and moral betterment of mankind it counts not at all. The world's greatest men and women whom history ranks as the highest successes, down through all the ages, and who have led us from savagery to civilization, became gnat not through what they got but through what they gave. They not only did not save their money, they did not have themselves. Who could imagine a Homer, a Luther, a Milton, a Franklin, devoting their lives to the paltry savins of their pennies? Few of them ever had any pennies to save. Saving has its virtues, but it has its itcs too. It is the worst of all ices when it narrows a oul down to mere money. There are Infinitely higher aehieements tha'n money-making. Indeed, achievement, in any line, is. not always success, while reputed failure often is. The nio3t successful men are not necessarily the ones noisily attracting public attention. The best and most useful women are not tho bright butterllies of fashion or the stae, whose press agents incessantly daunt their pictures and their little nothings before the public. The millions of unlauded men and women who are quietly attending to their own little tasks, every day contributing something substantial to industry, prosperity and progress, rearing children in habits of honest labor and right living, and supplyingtheir little communities these are tho men and women of real inlluence and power. Xiici-tss is theirs in the fullest measure. It is not given us all to have success as gorgeous as the rainbow. Hut our ideals and our efforts are all our own. It is our purposes anil our efforts that are a part of ourselves. How shrunken and pitiful a thing, how ho'low a delusion, is the sinning sii-calhd success of self-absorbed, money-e,.:ing men and women! They are 'ike- that soldier under Valerius w ho in looting found a shining leather kiK hlkd with pearls, and thrw away tho pearls but carefully kept the shining; hag". SIII7S SO HAPPY.

Judging by ther amount of advertising done by hotels and railroads, an enormous amount of vacation travel has become customary at this time of year. Formerly most business men expected to gr'nd through from August to August without any break. Their health has grown tender of recent years. Hotel people are entering the business of entertaining' winter company cn a big scale. A place may be in the heart of the snow beit, but it freely advertises cold weather and all tho ice and snow sports as an attraction. The southern resorts are spending millions on golf courses and motor loads. The Pullman cars are loaded with dyspeptic and nervous millionaires. , For summer outings northern people may settle down at some picturesque shack a few miles from home. But their longing for winter sunbhine sends them across wide spaces. ('mo learns many other things than geography by traveling. You find out that your own home point of view is not the only one. The fellows across the country may seem hostile and unfriendly as seen through newspaper opinion. But on talking with them on a railroad train or hotel piazza, it is surprising how closely you can agree with them. The great mass of working people get unfortunately no whiff of winter resort air, except such as conies from the travel advertising in the newspapers. But people of moderate means take these long distance trips moro than they did a few years ugo. They need not cost very much, compared with other things for which people spend money. The main trouble is not the price of the ticket, but getting away from work. After all our employers acquire the Henry Ford ideas, let us hope they perceive the general need for a February or .March breathing space. tin: di:piu:ciation of alto. MOIHL12S. A man was asked the other day what it cost him to run his automobile. He remarked that gasoline, tires, and garage fees cost him eight cents per mile. He had had no repairs to speak of, but other items, mostly depreciation, were so largo that he rigured the whole thing as L. o ct nts a mile. This may be an exaggerated statement of depreciation. But most people on buying a machine do not look the fact squarely in tho face that depreciation is commonly the biggest single item. If people were not so crazy after speed, a motor-car would last much longer. Most mechanisms stand on a lirm base in a factory, and even then they w ear out. An automobile is subject to the inlinitely greater strain of being jerked over rough roads at high rates of speed. It is no wonder that many owners, according to tho automobile owner quoted above, need to charge off a third the cost of their investment each year. American Cookery says "Man usually marries for love the first time and for good cookery the second venture." It has often been noticed that divorces are not so apt to follow the second union. The hired gir' would feel some satisfaction in busting up that $4,u00.000 collection of porcelains that Mr. Morgan Just sold, if she could have the washing of them as a dinner set. The year, 101.", is the centenary of the adoption of trousers for men. They would better celebrate now. as they may not have the exclusive wearing of them in -013. It is still possible for the ferry boats to c ross from New ork to Ho boken. without being endangered by the war vessels of the contending powers. The shipping bill has brought out an attendance of senator? equal to the critical periods when the Washington ball team was playing its best game. Bread fcems to be going up quite generally to six cents a loaf, and as the rolling pin long ago converted into kindling wood, most of us will have to pay the price. Some people's idea of courage is to send on Feb. 14 .a comic valentine anonymously to some one they don't like. J'ihtary fashions for women this spring. These insignia of command are certainly appropriate for our bosses.

Statesmen Real and Near. By Fred C Kelly

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17. This question of maintaining one's neutrality makes Congressman Henry Barnhart think of the case of old Bill Jones or whatever his name was, out at Rochester, Ind., where Bamhart has a little newspaper. One morning Bill Jones's wife called Kditor Barnhart on the telephone and asked him If he would like to have a good, red-hoi article for his paper. "Always," replied Barnhart. b'o Mrs. Jones said she would put on her hat and be right down. In a little while she came bounding into Barnhart's office and began telling him all about it. Her story, it appeared, was in the nature of a muckraking article, and the subject was her husband. Old Bill Jones, so his wife said, had fallen in love with a good-for-nothing widow over at Peru, and was much in her society, to the neglect of his work and his family. One day Mrs. Jones caught him and the Peru widow engaged in earnest conversation over a timetable down at the railway station. "Going some place?" asked Jones, in a twitting, bantering Mrs. tone, as she walked by the pair. Whereupon the Peru widow squared herself away and gave Mrs. Jones a piece of her mind. It was an extraordinarypiece of mind, too, containing a great many altogether deprecating epithets and certain quaint nouns which if reproduced here would tend to prevent this paper from going through the mails. Bill Jones excused himself while this clever repartee was being exchanged and started to walk away. "Are you going to allow your own wife to be called such names?" asked Mrj. Jones, who was really quite put out about the thing, as she afterward explained to Barnhart. "I say, are you the kind of man that will let a woman like her say such things to your own wife? Answer me!" At which point Bill Jones, looking back over his shoulder, stated his position of neutrality. "I do not intend," said he, "to tako sides in this matter at all," Son. Hamilton Lewis of Illinois has a great memory for words and phrases but scarcely any for figures. Ho dislikes anything involving even the slightest form of mathematical calculation, and for this reason rarely counts his change. "Don't you suppose people cheat you?" he was asked. "Yes," he admitted, "I imagine they do. I suppose I have lost a great many thousands of dollars In that way." Ylce Pres't Marshall while waiting for a train at a small town in the west was introduced to the local station and express agent. "This i.s Mr. Marshall, vice president of the United States," said the man who made the introduction. "Well, I don't mind telling you that I didn't like that last inspector you sent around," remarked the agent to Marshall. "I don't understand," said Marshall. "Didn't the man say you were vicepresident of the U. S.?" "Yes." "Well, if your company sends any more boneheads like that last one to go oer my accounts I'll quit you and go to work for the Adams or the Wells Fargo." I have just ascertained why it is that members of congress do so much talking. It is for the purpose of keeping in practice. If one did not get up and make a speech every day he would not be able to make a speech when one is actually needed. It is on the same principle that financiers often borrow money when they do not need It so that they may feel perfectly at ease when they really have to borrow. Champ Clark testihes on this point as follows: "During the last year that I was the minority floor leader I got into the habit of having comparatively little to say, and I found that tho longer I went without making a speech the less desire I had to make one. There i.s no place where public speaking Is harder than in the house, and one who seldom does it is apt to be half afraid to try it." Other members have told me that they find it just that way, and speak frequently rather than wake up some dread day and find that they have little inclination to speak at all. (Copvrlght, 1913, by Fred C. Kelly.) TWENTY YEARS AGO Reminders From the Columns of The Daily Tlnxva.

Now the night before last I was nungry. So I bought some popcorn, "Butterkist," And it looked to me so light and fluffly. Just like McKvoys's "Jest and Gist." or That I took up a bunck in my fist. It tasted like regular pop-corn. And the "sodium chloride" was there, But the Butter that once should have Kist it I couldn't find THAT anywhere. .

WE are impressed with the thought that "Be Americans First" would make a good substitute for "Safety First." IT might be a comfort to some of us to believe with Andrew Carnegie that many of our sins will never bo registered against, but it would be more comforting to know just what are sins of registry and what are not.
