Woman Auctions Popular Sport of
 African Natives

St. Louis. Oct. 20-women are on the auction block" and wives may be bought at "s5" 8 week, balance in easy payments" from the Otela tribe of the Bantus in the kingdom of Wambo Nyana, Belgian Congo, 1.5oo miles from the west coast of Africa.
 This is the sensational report of Dr. J. A. Stockwell. of Lake Charles, La, who served four years as a mission ary among the savages of the little uncivilized kingdom. Dr. Stockwell now is on a 1eture tour.
 When I went to the heart of Afri- ca," Dr. Stockwe1l said. "I found the people living in the most primitive fashion. They could do little for themselves and worked on the prin- ciple that unless their ancestors had done 1t a task would be impossible.
 'aThe native women are put in the same category as beasts. Their chief value is their usefulness for work and when that Is gone they are abandon ed and often left to die. Wives in General Africa are acquired by pur- chase, either from their families or from their owner. They are bought on the instalment plan. the equivalent of $5 to $7 being made as first pay ment and the equivalent of 50 cents

LARGEST CROWDS VISITS FAMOUS
 NATIONAL PARK

Yosemite, Cal, Oct. ae.-yosenite National Park, California's great play ground. this year took first place in the race among the national parks for first place in attendance. The lead was wrested, from Yellowstone Ma tiona1 Park by 8 margin of approx imately 10000 visitors.
 A telegram from Horace M AL bright, superintendent at Yellowstone, recently announced that S1, ,347 visited that park during its 1921 season which closed September 90. On September 19 Yosemite had a record of 9,157, with heavy travel continuing. Never before has Yellowstone, the oldest of the rational parks. been toppled from the lead.
 As Yosemite is open the year around the totals for the year will be even higher. Final figures for the governments statistical travel year, which closes September 30, will bring Yosemite,s total for the twelve mont hs ending that date to about 9o,000.
 MT. Albright reported that Yellow stone had 15,67 automobiles, carry ing 55,771 passengers this year. To- semitic had 1S,405 automobiles with 63,153 passengers. Railroad travel to Yellowstone decreased by about 1000 passengers but Yosemite shows an in crease in railroad travel one of the few instances of an increase this year in travel by rail to the national parks, despite higher railroad fares which went into effect late in 1920.

FIVE CONCERTS FOR PRICE OF
 ONE ARTIST

Five celebrated artists concerts for the price of one is practically what the Steinert Series of Concerts offers. Before Rudolph Steinert began giving to go to New York to hear such artists as Jascha Heifetz, Rachman- inoff and the other headliners in the musical world. Then the price of the railroad fare plus the price of the concert was practically as much course of five concerts.
 MT. Steinert is bringing these artists to Bridgeport at a great per- sotIal expense and as a matter of civic pride the city owes it to him to support them liberally.
 The first of these concerts will be that of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 30+ This famous orchestra will come to Bridgeport direct from Carnegie Hall, New York, where it will begin it's season on Oct. 27. Josef Stransk. who enjoys the reputation of being one of the greatest conductors in the world, will direct the orchestra's per- formance here. The soloist will be Grace Wagner, an artist of rare tall ast.
 In December will come the Mar garet Matzenauer- Y o1anda Nero con cert, a combination of talent which is rare since both are leaders in their particular branches of music.
 January will bring Mabel Garrison and Reinald Werrenrath, in another remarkable combination; February, Jascha Heifetz, the boy violinist, and March, Sergei Rachmaninoff, one of the worlds greatest composers and pianists.
 The concerts will all be held on Sunday afternoons in Polls theatre. Course tickets are now on sale at M. Steinert & Sons, 915 Main street.

Efficient Housekeeping
A PRETTY MUSLIN BED SET.
By LAURA A. HERMAN.

,,5. There here is - g rage. today; for sGnsi1f na- ing of spread and bolster roll talso used over pi11ows) with a rather large design in applique Cor embrotdefy) in the middle of the spread and on the long. bolster cover.
 These are made in the following way:
 Measure your bed and buy enough unbleached muslin to make a spread that will hang down half way to the floor on all three sides; also make a long strip that will cover both pill patterns that are gotten out by pat tern houses for these bed sets, and place this design, ink-side-down, on the center of your spread and in the middle of your pillow-roll; run a moderately hot iron over the pattern paper, taking care not t0 move the paper and thus blur the lines of the design. If any reader wishes the name of @ pattern house that brings out an autumn needlework catalogue containing these transfer bed-sets, I name upon receipt of a stamped, self addressed envelope.
 The next step is to decide what colors you wish to use in working embroidery alone. choose silk floss in the colors that harmonize with the color scheme of the bedroom, and begin the work. As the under side of
 
 need for lining this spread or pillow cover.
 If, however, you have chosen one of the pretty applique designs, you must buy a good grade of fa.st-color chambray in the colors you want and cut this material to fit into the vari- ous parts of the design, first basting them on with large stitches, then sewing them on with very fine stitches around the edge, and then finishing the work by going about the edges of each piece with a wide butto1hole stitch in floss to match the color of the piece Gust as the edges of a chfld's cambric scrap book are fin ished.)
 Before attempting to transfer the large design on the middle of the spread and pillow cover, you should first try a corner of the design on a small sample piece of the muslin; in this way. you will make all your mis- talks on piece of goods that is of no account.
 If, however, you should make a mistake in transferring the design on the spread or pillow case, you can usually cover it up successfully by ap- pliqueing your chambray pieces over the faulty line (going ''by eye" rather than by pattern) or you can remove the design from the muslin by wash ing that portion of the spread or pill low case with 1uke-warnl water and a little naphtha soap. To remove the design from silk (Some women prefer to make these bed-sets of silk) rub the silk with either gasoline or ben zine (not near heat or f1ame.)

Beauty Chats
 By EDNA KENT FORBES
TOE NAILS.

Yesterday we were talking about the nails Pm afraid in our consider ation of this important item, we are apt to forget that the toes also have nails, and that these should be kept in perfect condition. Most of us spend such scanty leisure as we pos sess on the places that show nubstI But surely any woman can steal 20 minutes a week, or ten minutes twice week, to look after the feet and toe nails. The results in comfort will Justify the time spent, even if pretty toe nails are hard to achieve. One wealthy society woman has her toe nails cal 4ed for daily exactly like her finger nails, and has each nail care fully polished; As she has plenty. of time, I do not blame her for I think it's sense and not vanity that prompts her to have her feet as pretty as her handsi
 The feet should be soaked in warm soapy water for ten minutes, so the nails can be cut easily. Cut them straight across, short, and clean un- der each nail. If the big toe nail is of wet pumice stone,-it will improve its looks and your comfort If the nails are yellow from the friction of shoe, rub off the yellow with the punice.
 Loosen the cuticJe about the edge of the nail with a cuticle knife, clip off the dead skin that grows too far down. Repeat this treatment once H twice a week-and watch how your foot improves in prettiness! If you want to be quite vain, polish the nails with your manicure buffer!
 H. Girl-You arc 20 pounds over weight: Swimming, like all other healthful exercise, will build up the muscles, while 1t consumes the fatty tissue. It will only tend to make the person thin when it is carried to ex- cess.

TENNIS COMES TO Be
IMPORTANT GAME HERE
FROM CASH VIEWPOINT
Much Money Being Taken in
at Matches During Past
Year; Restrictions Severe.


Omitted Press staff Correspondent |
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Tennis has
not only developed into one of the
most popular American sports but it
now takes rank with the foremost of
big money" attractions.
The national mems championshins
at the Germantown Cricket club in
Philadelphia last September is said to
have drawn gate of $120. 600. The
challenge round matches of the Davis
Cup play between America and japan
brought in over $700 at Forest Hills
and the national womans champion-
ships at the same club would have OK
ccedcd that mark if Mile. Suzanne
Lenslen, the French star had been
able to play through, In addition the
exhibition tour of American stars
staged for the benefit of Devastated
France brought in $4,000. although it
was played off season.
1t is only To be expected that profess
sional sportsmen would look with
cagerness at tennis as a money maxi
ing propositon and it is understood
that William r. Tilden, national and
international champion was offered
$4,000 recently to turn professional
next summer.
Tennis perhaps comes closer to
real amateur sport than anN other Am
erican pastime, The number of pro-
fessional instructors. compared to
