media, said Mr.. Fazlett, was to ask
me for an English grammar. so that
she might learn the language OF this
country, Of which she knew nothing.
l was her daily instructor. She made
rapid progress, and as they went over
the country, meeting dignitaries in ev-
cry large city. she was able to learn
much about the United States. She
was extremely intelligent, as well as
very gracious and beautiful. She did
a great deal of shopping in America
and before she and her husband and
children finally went home they Wis
tied Paris, France, where 1 suppose
her wardrobe was still further replen-
ished as the Brazilians are even more
devoted to Partisan styles than are we
in North America"
DR.. Hazlett makes unqualified as
sertions as 10 the generosity of the
Brazilians, and their kindness to their
servants. which is returned by the
most faithful loyalty "Million2ires
are numerous. and I have many friends
in their favorite city. Sac Paulo. which
is considered the Athens OF Brazil, on
account of its many educational insti-
tutons and its many homes Of retired
planters. It is 5000 feet above sea
level, and the climate all the year
round is so absolutely pleasant Among
all the wealthy planters, I say with
out qualification that 1 never saw or
heard Of one who was miserly or
mean"
In illustration Of this Christian
kindness, DR.. Hazlett told story Of
some Brazilian friends Of his who
were visiting in Sew York. Several
Brazilian planters and their wives. all
arrayed in the fine raiment Of the rich.
with jewels indicating their high So
cial standing. were breakfasting at
one of the best hotels. In the midst
OF the well-modulated flow Of CONVEX
satiOn, one OF the wives remembered
some trife in her room which she ask
ed her husband to get for her. When
he reached the room. he found, TO his
dismay that bureau drawers we're
turned inside out, valises rihed. and a
handsome set Of pearls missing. he
came upon the thief almost immedi-
ately. and, bringing him back to the
room, took from him the stolen articles
and gave the culprit serious Gliding.
The rich planter had no thought OF
carrying the matter farther. but upon
returning 10 the dining room he ex-
planned his long absence. The women
naturally were surprised. and some
echo OF their calculations reached the
ear OF the hotel authorities. who in
sisted on the whole story. The arres,
OF the young man. an employe II the
hotel. was al once ordered. The Bra
lillian men expostulated: the Brazilian
women wept. They upbraided them
selves. 20 think they had spoken so as
10 be heard; they were contrite with
remorse at being the instrument OF
bringing such punishment upon the
youth The fair owner of the pearls

declared it was entirely her fault in
placing temptation in his way. II re-
suited at last in the dropping Of the
whole matter, because the husband
fatty refused to appear in any prose-
cution. and, the hotel keeper was so
softened by the women's pleadings that
he gave the thief another chance and
did not even discharge him.
When DR.. Hazlett goes 10 Rio de
Janeiro. he will visit Count Mendez de
Almeida and will deliver an address
before the Chamber of Commerce in
Rio. On his last visit he was made an
honorary member of most Of the large
clubs Of the capital city. He has in
hand invitations. which he means 70
accept, 10 speak before the chamber
of commerce in various cities OF Bra
I'll. as well as before many schools
and colleges. His general theme Will
be the Strengthening of relations be-
tween South and North America.

viii Invade
Gold Mines.

Before reaching Rio de Janeiro, the
steamer Uberaba will stop two days at
the cities of Para. at the mouth OF the
Amazon; Pernambuco and Bahia. DR..
Hazlett will make Rio his center, from
which he will visit important places in
the state of Sac Paule, the iron mines,
the agricultural school at Pr aricaba,
thence going on TO the large sugar
plantations in the states OF Rio de
Janeiro and Sac Paulo. as we'll as the
large coffee plantations. He expects
to visit the schools at Campinas and in
Caldas, in the State of Minas Geraes,
and the extensive gold mines in the
same state. OF all these things he will
bring back photographs. He is also TO
take notes and photographs Of the ma
tive flowers. fruits and trees.
Capt. Nascimento of the steamship
Uberaba has been recently quote wide
" in what in some quarters was
spoken of as an international incl
dent" This was nothing more nor less
than such a domestic matter as the
price Of coffee. Capt Nascimento was
quoted by a newspaper man as saying
that coffee sold in Rio at a price in
Brazilian money which translated into
the currency of the United States
would be 1914 cents pound. This was
widely published. the contrast being
very great between such a rate and
that at which coffee sells here. The

A Guide, Philosopher
and Friend.
DR.. HaZlett has the advantage
among other Brazilian aCQuaintances,
OF a close friendship with Count Men
dez de Alneida, owner and editor Of
the formal do Brazil, one of the two
large newspapers in Rio de Janeiro.
When the Count and Countess Nendez
de Almeida came 70 North America,
in 1912. for the international Rubber
Exhibition in New York. Dr. Hazlett
was their guide. philosopher and
friend" accompanying them on their
travels from the Atlantic TO the Pa

The countess brought with her, &C

-Brazilians never t-ayel without their
families and their servants said Or.
Hazlett. In this case, the education
OF the little daughters was thought OF.
and while the count and countess took
a six months leisurely journey over
the U1ted States, they cached their
daughters az a select boarding school
in New York state.

The immensely and strength of this
tremendous production can be judged
from the extraordinary assemblage
to stars secured for the presentation
of this exceptional attraction.
"Stolen Orders" Is a big picture in
every sense of the word 1t is grip
ping drama and it is a spectacular
treat. The last reel in which fight
in the ca: Of a dirigib!e balloon is
staged and IN which the two combat
ants tumble into the ocean below, is
one Of the most thrilling things ever
shown on the scheen. The rescue of
the girl by. a hydro-aeroplane is an-
other one Of the many thrills with
which "Stolen Orders" abounds. !. -.
Picture fans who remember M.
Brady's big picture success, "The
Whip" will be interested in knowing
that in stolen Orders Mr.. Brady
has created an even bigger production
than The WHIP This new picture
has all the thrills and exciting drama
of "The Whip and it is filled with
even more spectacular scenes than
THE Whip"
Stolen Orders is tremendously
big picture--the sort Of picture you

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful
what you use. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali, which
is very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The'best thing to use is just plain null
sifed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and
beats the most expensive soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and few ounces
will last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather. cleanses thor
oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle Of dust. dirt and
dandruff.

EXPLAINS NEED OF
CHILDREN'S YEAR

Chicago. Feb. 11.-Women should
give careful study to the problems
growing out Of the war, Mrs. Phillip
North Moore, president Of the National

dress today before the National Con-
gress for League Of Nations. The
congress is being held under the
auspices of the League to Enforce
Peace.
:,"It is expedient," she said, that
tanning right and peace which, accord
ing TO the history now being written.
must be International. We must build
up reconstruct till the soil cultivate
and enrich, and dismiss the burden
and terror and waste Of war" ~.

sThere were always numbers. Of
women ready to work." she continued
The difficulty was, that they were
unframed, ignorant Of any orderly
conception Of their occupation. 1t is
Obvious that one Of the great lessons
OF the war-to women has been the
value, of training. These who are
ambitious in their work insist on bet
ter training and will demand that
when genuinely skilled. they shall he
allowed to fill skilled posts at skilled
wages"
Mrs. Moore told Of the growth in
legislation designed to protect chill
dren and women, in industry and out
of it.. explaining the nee1 and some OF
the results of the "children's year.
fostered by the federal government.
She concluded:
There were two things worth dy-
ing for One was the successful pros
ecution of the righteous war. The
other war, and is. to keep down as
| much as we can the awful cost to
| the young. to the children born ana
unborn. We fought with clean hands
and pure hearts so that no poison phil

ter our childrens' minds to make them
