The management recently offered
$4,000 in cash prizes for the best
short stories, at the same time agree

offer has made it possible for both
the most famous and the most un-
tried authors to compete OH fair
terms. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. the
noted creator of Sherlock Holmes, at
once sent word that he would write
three stories for their contest. New
authors from Japan, from India,
from England and from remote COR
ners of the United States began to
send in tales worthy to compete with
the best. The scheme has proved an
astonishing success. and now The
Record Herald's readers are gettiug
the benefit of 1t every Sunday.
Among the well-known authors
writing for this contest are Jack
London, Cyrus Townsend Brady.

is PROTECTING IT'S INDIANS
Government of Brazil Treats Them
With Sollcitude and the Re-
suits Are Good.

The Brazilian government appears
to have found a way of dealing with
it's Indians which is altogether diff
ferent from that so extensively en-
ployed in North America where the
"civilizers" proceeded on the assump-
ton that "all good Indians are dead
Indians"
"The government of Brazil" says
L'Ttoile du Sud of Rio de Janeiro,
lis always occupied with more or less
solicitude in the amelioration of the
lot of the natives, who are yet numer-
GUS in a great part of the country.
In a short space of time the most en-
couraging results have been obtained.
A great number of tribes, protected
by the administration, are becoming
civilized little by little. The result
of this is an increased production
of cultivated foods offering superior
advantages to an industry, consisting
only of hunting and fishing, which has
been the sole resource of many
indigenous tribes. In the state OF
Parana the Indians belonging for the
most part to the nation of the Cain
cangus are cultivating their lands in
maize, rice and sweet potatoes. The
natives of the valley of the river
Tibagy have recently constructed five
sugar mills, very crude, it is true, but
nevertheless a great step in their prog
ress."

SMALL C0URTESIES ARE LOST
These Things That Make Life Really
Worth While Seem to Be
Forgotten.

Small cOurtesies Of life seem to be
entirely lost in the rush for big things.
This leaving off Of the little things that
go to make living worth the while is a
well-known and recognized fact to
women who crave those gracious at
tentions so easy in the giving when
the thought Is right.
Many men no longer consider it nee
essary to rise when lady enters the
room. If they proffer chair, 1t is
seldom done with the old-time alacrity,
and a few trips on a city car will be
sufficient to convince the veriest skep-
tic Of the truth of courtesy's deca-
dence.
Be it said in favor Of man, contin-
ually on the rack regarding these omis-
sions, that he is by no means the
greatest offender. Women who enter
tain will tell you of scores of invita-
lions to which they have never even
received the courtesy of an acknowl.

a card or note means nothing to won.
en- too thoughtless or too ill-bred to
take five minutes for a reply. Such
treatment of a social courtesy is an Of
Tense garish enough to cause the Of

social list of the hostess.
The small courtesies of woman tc
woman are fully as important as those
from man to woman, or woman tt

WEALTH IN HER WEEK-ENDS
How Widowed Society Woman Has
Managed to Make Entertaining
- Pay Very Well.

Not long ago a charming society
woman was thrown high and dry on
the barren shores of reduced circum-
stances by the death of her husband,
who left her almost penniless. This
suited her not at all, so being clever
she thought and planned until she hit
upon a money-making scheme very
near affiuence. This is how she ar
rived"
A year ago she leased a charming
place on Long Island, hired an eff
Client corps of servants, a fine chef,
stocked the larder with the best in
the market, and then sent out cards
to her friends and acquaintance that
she was prepared to entertain them
for a day or two or three, at so much
per entertainment.
The idea caught on at once. With
in a few weeks her modest menage
was so overrun that those who wished
to spend the time from Saturday to
Monday had to make their arrange
ments weeks in advance.
No one without the best of refer
ence was admitted. Mrs. Widow
managed affairs admirably Every
thing was up to date, and yet inform
ally formal, so to speak.
Her season lasted from October to
June, since when she has been taking
things easy, with plenty of money and
the owner of an automobile, hired at
the beginning on "shoestring."
She's now making arrangements for
the coming season, and is already
booked up to the holidays.

ARE YOU ON OPPOSITE SIDE?
Frank Crane Thinks the standing
Minority Report" Necessary to
Keep Mankind Honest.

Doubtless each of us knows some
one in his circle Of acquaintance
who is Intellectually contrary. Such
a one delights to take on every occa-
sion the opposite side.
If he is in a religious community he
will take his stand firmly for atheism;
if he is among scoffers he will argue
just as valiantly for the church. He
is a standing minority report. He is
a crooked stick that will not lie in
the woodpile. Like Goethe's devil
he is the spirit who constantly de-
MES.
This class Of persons is a steady,
normal crop in the field of humanity.
We would not get along without them.
They keep the kettle of things stirred,
which otherwise would settle and
spoil. These are they that keep the
course of social life pure as rum
ming stream and prevent it from be-
coming like a green, stagnant poel.
They supply ginger for political
campaigns. They are the party out
of power. They are the watchdogs of
progress. Without them religion
would harden into a cruel tyranny Of
superstition, falsehoods would be crys-
talIized in power and ancient fraud
live forever. They harass mankind
into being honest.-Frank Crane.

other two ate.
Il don't want that fish to die. In

INSTRUCTIONS or A PIPER
Ingenious Method of Teaching His Pu-

Musician.

A Highland piper who had a pupil
to teach originated a method by
which he succeeded in reducing the
difficulties of the task to a minimum,
and at the same time fixed his lesson
in the pupils mind.

Imnervlous to Hard Knocks.

All stories about the hardness Of
negroes skulls were put into the back
ground by two happenings which &C.
Cured the other day. Following a
quarrel, a negro, Henry Lewis, was
shot four times in the head at range
of less than five feet. After penetrat-
ing the flesh the bullets flattened and
dropped to the floor. The man was
taken to hospital, but was soon per-
mitted to go to his home. His as
sailant escaped. Another colored man,
William Puffen, while Harvesting a
mule, was kicked on the head and
knocked down. Getting to his feet, he
discovered the mule lying on the
ground Examination showed that its
leg was broken. Puffen was taken to
the Germantown hospital, where six
stitches were put in his scalp.-Phila-

To BRIGHTEN the Ewes.

Bright eyes are among the most
radiant of beauty's jewels, since they
give animation and light to the entire
face. A dull eye means a heavy,
dropping expression, a condition to be
avoided by the employment of ex-
IRENE measures on the part of the
girl who would attract.
A harmless and generally satisfac-
tory way to bring brightness to the
eyes is to battle them with solution
of boracic acid and tepid water. Put
in a basin full of tepid water as much
boracic acid as can be placed on a
dime. When it has entirely dissolved
battle the eyes gently. Do not be
afraid to allow the water to get into
the eye, as it will remove all infiam-
nation and tend to make this impor-
tant beauty feature clear and bril-
liant at the same time giving a rest
full and strengthening effect.

Whence the nerass wldow.p

To give positively the origin of the
expression grass widow" appears to
be impossible. The authorities do not
agree on this point. One contends
that woman who said to her friends
that her husband had gone to grass"
following a separation is entitled to
the credit of coming the expression
Other writer's have attempted to
find an explanation of it in the French
word grace" signifying a widow by
courtesy. In the Scandinavian lam
guages the prefix grass" being in
common use, others have conjectured
that it comes from the word "grad-
ing" meaning greedy; this signifying
woman who longs for the husband
who is gone.
These give a wide enough choice.
