LAND OF LONG COURTSHIPS

lit’ Count y Districts of Holland the ' Young Couple-Think Nothing of * Walting Three Years. . There is .a story told In Holland that >«ae evening in the .catechumen's class Mi emcrrous youth was called upon to answer the first question in the Heidelberg catechism: “What is thine only comfort in life and death?" To which the young man replied: "To ; mkrry Geertie de Koning and to have a farm of my own.” A curious feature in the evolution of a Dutch courtship is that it begins at church.' Eyes meet eyes there. A visit Is then paid by the young man to the home of the esteemed beauty. “Papa" is approached as to whether the visitor may speak, privately, to the daughter, and, If no objection Is offered, both parents are called tn to ascertain the issue of the conference. If both parties are agreed to open courtship, it begins that night in coffee-drinking and social enjoyment and then the courtship lasts for at least three years, during which period of time the Dutch maiden will attend to the dairy wort: of the farm, baking, mending, and cooking. The young man will have amassed enough guilders to invest In a farm, and then the clergyman is called in, and the Neighbors revel for many days, celebrating the event in true, generous, hospitable fashion. Needless to say, this order of nuptialtying does not apply to cities.

MARKED PROGRESS OF RACE

Much Significance in What Might Be Called the Division of Chinese Shoe Periods. Chinese shoes may generally be divided into two periods—the boundfeet period and the natural-feet period according to an article by Miss Ten Wei Tsing. During the former period the women were secluded and their chief business was embroidery, even their shoes being elaborately embroidered. Each shoe consisted of two pieces, at the border of which a narrow strip of silk was sewed so as to make a smooth edge.' The two pieces were sewed together at the pointed end with several fine cross stitches. A wooden block about one-third Inch thick served as the heel of the shoe, the wooden block being wrapped in several layers of cloth. Later the small shoes with the tiny soles became fashionable. This kind of shoe also Consisted of t\vo pieces, with a silk cord at the juncture, to prevent the seam from being seen. When the Manchus became the ruling class of China, women were released from sedasiotfcin the more progressive homes and their chief interest was no longer embroidery. They had no time to pay much attention to their shoes, and they stopped binding their feet and entered into the natural-feet period with the Maqehus.

RED MEN FLOURISH

Idea That Indians Are Dying Out Is Erroneous. Probably th* Rao* I* Scarcely Laos Nunwrou* Today Than Wh*a Galumbua Landed an th* Sheree of America. Despite popular belief that the dvlUxation forced upon him by the white man means his ultimate extinction, the North American Indian, reviving from a long period of decadence, ba* shown such substantial - increase la. populates in recent? years that be probably is scarcely less numerous today than whin Columbus discovered Aifierica. Startling as this assertion may be 'tp those who have pictured American forests in the discoverer’s time as swarming with red men, it is freely advanced by experts of the government's Indian bureau, who maintain that the Indian necessarily formed an exceedingly scant population which probably at no period materially exceeded the total Of 833,702 Indian* reported by the bureau for last ydar. , “The Indian no longer Is to be thought of as a dying race," declared Dr. Lawrence W. White, an Indian authority of the bureau. “In support of • that statement Jt Is necessary. In the first place, to' 'disabuse the publie mind of the tradition handed down by discoverers and early colonists that American forests in their day swarmed With the dusky figures of the red man. As the Indian neglected agriculture almost completely, it is highly improbable that this country, considering its latitude, could have supported more than several hundred thousand of his race.” “On the other hand,” Doctor Whit* continued, "the Indian in the present day, after periods of sharp decrease following as a natural reaction to sudden contact with the civilisation of the white man, is seen to be making substantial gains in population. “While many estimates *r guess** of the Indian population W» made during the past century," sod Doctor Whl'e, “ranging from less thanlOO,000 to 400,000, the first reliable census. was made by the Indian bureau in 187 u, when the population was placed at 318,712. So figures demonstrate that in the last 50 years the Indian population has made a substantial net gain.” Pointing to statistics which show an excess of births over deaths of- 1,522 in 1918, and almost as great an excess in 1917, normal year* which were not affected by th* epidemic of intlucnza, Doctor White declared these figures “fully reflected the generosity of a government that has increased its Indian health appropriation , alone ftbm 140,000 in 1911 to 1350,090 in 1917 and subsequent years." They demonstrate, he said that with the schools, hospitals and other advantages now provided for them, the Inf dlan, be he tribesman or freedman. Is “not a dying race, but rather a. flourishing one.” Had he been treated as other nations have treated savage tribes. Doctor White concluded, there probably would not be a “vestige of the race within our republic today.” v

London’s Slow Library Methode.

Before war started Germany was planning a library large enough to hold 10.000,000 book* Although thio f would have been the largest library in the world, it is by no means certain that it would have been the most useful. Students and business men, too, find the New York public library much more generally helpful than the British museum library, though the latter possesses three times as many books, j Comparatively few Londoners, says a j contemporary, can spare the time to j visit Bloomsbury and sit vacantly for an hour under the great dome of the । reading room while the books reQulrpd are being sought

Ho Was Accommodating.

It was during the evening rush hour od a Central car in Indianapolis a few nights ago andevorr available inch of standing end sitting room was taken while men passengers were even dinging tothe Steps. The car stopped at a corner for two men who were waiting to board It and the conductor shouted out: “Just move up front please—thereto plenty of room.”, . From tiie platform where he was wedged in no tightly he eould not move, there ptped up a sarcastic boyish treble: "Sure, come en in-yon can stand en the other half of ma.”— Indianapolis News.
