MATCHMAKING IN INDIA.
On Scheme That Gave a Missionary,
the Surprise of Hi 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 if any
have heard of the conditions beiug re
versed and the flock turning match
maker for their missionary. That does
occur, however, as the letter written
by a missionary who lives at Tuti
corin, south India, tells:
On New Year's day, 1911, as I was
seated in my little mud cottage at
Tuticorin a number of people entered
the veranda and ceremoniously came
into my room, bearing trays of flow
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 eti
quette had been observed and I had
indicated my willingness to hear their
petition Brother Gunna Draviam. a
prominent lawyer in Tuticorin, began
reading in Tamil an address to which
the others gave strict attention. It
ran like this:
"Kevercnd Sir You have now for
nearly two years bestowed great care
and labor upou us, ministering to our
spiritual welfare and striving for the
health of our souls to such an extent
that you have greatly iinpnired 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 u
good woman, who will both care for
you and help us."
This was naturally a confusing thing
to happen, but I was bound to re
spond to such an eloquent appeal, and
when the applause died away 1 rose
and answered with considerable effort:
"Your affectionate regard for my
welfare is so overwhelming that 1 have
no words iu which to "express my ap
pieclution," and sat down, quite faint
from the exertion. But the novelty of
the situation overcame my fatigue,
aud, turning to one of the ciders, 1
asked if they had any particular per
son in mind us one who would be will
ing to become my helpmeet and be
equal to all the responsibilities they
had outlined. Immediately Miss W.'s
name was mentioned. "But," said I,
"I don't believe she would have me."
This seemed to me like matchmaking
with a vengeance. What a high handed
act, to be sure! To order their pastor
to marry, and then to choose the girl
besides! But the worst was still to
come. "We have already seen her and
told her she must have you," said
Brother Rajappan.
So it was settled. I may add that
my wife and I have reason to approve
highly of tho Indian method of match
making, but it should bo combined
with the western method of courting,
as in our case, to secure the best re
sults. Exchange.
Average American's Taxes.
Somewhere in the United States in a
small city lives the average American,
lie has a family of four, including him
self, and earns $51? a year. Some one
else in his family, perhaps a stenogra
pher daughter, contributes $330 to the
family fund, making tho total income
of $S47. lie feels that he pays noth
ing, or next to nothing, for the privi
lege of living iu a freo country, with
warships on the sea and street lights
in front of his house, with a policeman
on his corner, a public service commis
sion looking after his interests and a
copy of the Congressional Itecord com
ing to him regularly. The truth is that

i' m fact, all staple crops grown in this fertile section w.n e a ir ..-J .'
You will not be required to leave our present
surroundings now. All we ask of those to whom
we grant tracts is that they plant, or arrange to
have planted, a crop of one of the above-mentioned
products (harvested and replanted) for grantees,
in consideration of 25 per cent of the net profits
derived from the sale of the crops, thereby allow
ing the grantee to pursue his or her present occu
pation until such time as they determine just what
the yield of their acres amounts to. Consider what
this may mean as a source of income, when statis
tics . show that the yield of one acre of celery
amounted to f 1,268.45, and that one acre of well-cared-for
paper-shell pecans, in full bearing, should
net its owner as high as $500.00 per year. We are
of the opinion that after it is proven by actual
results obtained in operating the land that they
will need no further urging, and waste no time in
locating in this land of plenty. We also require
grantees to occupy the land within ten years, or
sell it to some one who will occupy it; otherwise it
reverts back to the grantor.
The land included in this opening is located
directly on and adjoining the Atlanta, Birmingham
& Atlantic Railroad, about twenty-five miles west
of Brunswick, a thriving city of fifteen thousand,
having direct steamship service to New York and
Boston, and excellent railroad transportation facili
ties to all points. The average temperature for six
months of the year, from April to October, is 77
degrees; the climate is most healthful, delightful
and invigorating, and there is an ample rainfall of
51 inches per year.
Oi n ALM IS FOR M'TUALLY BKXF.FICIAL
RESULTS.
As we are extremely desirous of having settlers
locate on this property, and assist in its develop
ment, and thereby greatly increase the value of
Biirrounding and Intervening property, which we
will hold, and to increase the traffic along the
Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railroad, and thus
facilitate the service, we feel warranted in grant
ing these tracts to those who register with us. We
also have in mind business and reeidence plots
which we will offer for sale after the opening, but
which will not be included in it. We have "money
making afterward" considerations in this liberal-
minded onenine. similar to th
Pacific and other railroads when they granted their
lands, and we expect to benefit thereby, as well as
the ones who will receive the tracts.
We have also planned to develop what is de
signed to be the best equipped, most up-to-date,
scientific, commercial farm and orchard in exist
ence. It will consist of six thousand acres, and
will be included in this opening. All who register
and receive tracts will get the benefit of the experi
ments and scientific methods in vogue thereon,
while we are arranging to prevent over-regitsra-tion,
we will avoid many disappointments, such as
occurred in other land openings conducted bv the
united States government and railroads, by g"rant
ing those who register in excess of the number of
tracts to be granted, an interest in this commer
cial farm and orchard enterprise, in the hope that
they may later locate in one of our townsites.
Examination of the land will cheerfully lie per.
mltted, and the opening will be held at Brown
town, Wayne county, Georgia, one of the stations
of the A. B. & A. Railroad, which is located on this
property, and will occur as soon after the closing
of registrations as arrangements can be made.
The presence of those registered will not be nec
essary at Browntown on the opening day. unless
they wiBh to attend, for there will be no favoritism
shown anyone. It will he conducted by a commit
tee selected for the purpose, and those registered
will be notified of what they have been granted
as soon as possible.
With the ever-increasing population of this
country there is no correKnding increase In the
area of land, and naturally as the imputation in
creases aud seeks the land in pursuit of heaitli,
happiness and indejteudenee, it will continue to be
harder to secure.
The prosperous and contented class in Europe
today are the descendants of those who secured
land there when It was plentiful, while the descend
ants of those who obtained no land are now the
peasants and slaves. You must realize that this
may be your last cliance to secure land in thin
country without a large outlay of capital, so it
should not be necessary to urge you to act at once
by forwarding us the application for registration
attached to this announcement.
