THE RICJHTKOrS I'ltl-WAIi, "And It enmc lo pans, when
' Ood deatroyed Ihe eltie of the plain, that (lod- remembered
Abraham, nnd sent Lot out of the nildhl of llin overthrow."
(Jen. 13: :'J.
; The man who formerly published socrl caliilofjues seems
to be' editing luurifat magazines now.
i People Weieat, overwork, nnd overtax their bodies nnd
mental energies, a doctor says. Overwork is probably the
least excessive. -
I A home economics instructor announces that dusting in
the house is a peril to health. Husbands who could never
sec the necessity are vindicated, though probably on radic
ally different grounds.
. ..' Among one or two other difficulties, the newspaper
publisher has to deal with subscribeis who expect immed
iate and complete printing of an article which would occupy
fifteen columns of space. Unfortunately the only way
they can be treated is with an expression of regret.
MODKRATION IS 'ADVISED.
' Dr. , Adolf Lorcnz, the noted . "bloodless" surgeon of
Vienna, who has just arrived in America, is cadited with
Vaying that the way to reach old age is to indulge in all
jVices moderately. It one is to assume that ho means vice
In gej.litualwiild haviuuddud, a ..further injunction-
accept advice in moderation also. We are charitable enough
.to believe, however, that the famous surgeon has been mis
quoted or that a wrong construction has been put upon his
words, for it is a strain upon intelligence to think that such
advice should be taken literally, no matter who utters it.
Some Words nlw.ys are to be interpreted with the aid of
the proverbial grain of wilt and the .statement attributed
to Dr. Iorcnz seems to fall into that category.
t We assume that the thing the celebrated Austrian
wished to impress on all was the necessity of moderation
i our indulgences such as tobacco, beverages, rich foods
find the like. Anybody is privileged to interpret his state
ment to hia own satisfaction but his alleged advice is un
necessary to those who would lie inclined lo lake him at his
word and therein find justification for unwarrantable folly.
Others will censure him for even countenancing anything
that savors of vice. , Those for whom the statement really
is meant will do well to remember that he probably desired
to stress the moderation feature of his approval of some
coin moil habits. .
,' SITU TO INVENTION.
As industrial activity always causes a great stir among
inventors, the fact that the V.rZ't rush at the I'nited SUtes
patent office was previously unequalled gives one a fair
idea of the height to which the industrial barometer scaled
'ast year.
I'atent rights were issued last year on K'v'ilo inventions
in this country, or twice as many as were granted in l'.Nin,
and more than in all oilier countries comliined.
Congress enacted the first patent law in 17'.)0, Imt the
present and moiv comprehensive law dates from Ki. In
the 13" years which have elapsed since patent No. 1 was
issued 1,500,0011 inventions have been patented in this coun
try. That total is twice that of ileal Hiitaiu and four
times (hat of (lennany.
Perhaps the reason for the htrger number of patents
here is a greater need for new inventions. Although fic
tion pictures the inventor us an impractical dreamer toy
ing with the unheard-of. the vast majority of all American
inventions are the fuUillnicnt of the needs of industry,
commerce and society. As the world's givatest industrial
country, with the world's largest railroad system and jrivitt
est number of automobiles, and as the country in which
machinery has been most highly develop! and most imi
veisally applied, the United St.ites ol'I'eis the most inspira
tion and highest reward for invention.
