TAN GOERS AGAIN TO DANCE HEN IS EXPECTED FOR EMPTY STOCKING FUND Encouraged by the success of the first Tango Tea for the benefit of Ike Empty Stocking Fund, the Christmas Editor to-day announces another and bigger one. This TANGO TEA will be held at the splendid new Hotel Winseoff jo* after the theater ’ at 10:30 p. m. Monday night. All you first-nighters jot that down quick. The theater and “the daneant"—you een’t l imagine a jollier combination than that, and all roads are sure to lead straight from the Foray* n ; and the Atlanta to the new Wlnecoff. The dance will be held in the beautifully appointed ballroom and Manager Harrell will do everything in his power to make the affair a huge success.

FAMOUS STAGE FOLK TO AID SANTA CLAUS ROBERT EDESON. .'tMs W. R. Hearst Adds $100 to Xmas Fund For Atlanta Poor William Randolph Haarat Thurs day morning added $100 to The Georgian-Amarican Empty Stock ing Fund, which is being raised to bring Santa Claua into the home* of hundreds of Atlanta s poor children. Mr. Hearat’s action in making a donation to the Atlanta fund is in line with hia policy of contributing heavily to the work of giving poor children a happy Chr.stmas in ev- ery city where he has paper*. Every Haarat paper In the United States Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and other cities—is try ing to raise a fund of sufficient proportione to bring Chrietmas to every home that othorwiae would face the tragedy of the empty stocking. ,, In 1912 the Hearst papers in the United States raised more than $100 000, which was devoted to the benefit of the poor little boys and girls. The generous response which the citizens of Atlanta and other cities are making to the ap peal! this year indicate that the 1913 Christmas fund will be the largest in the history of the move ment. Increased Laying Likely to Make Commodity Cheaper — No Trust Trail Found. Wight relief from conditions pre vailing In the egg market la in sight Several commission men Thursday received advices from country mer chants in the territory adjacent to Atlanta of signs on the part of the lowly hen to Increase her activities. Consequently, a supply of fresh eggs is expected to arrive here some time next week from some counties in Georgia and from Tennessee©, which commission men believe will turn wholesale quotations several cents lower. L. J. Baley, of the Department of Justice. is continuing hls Investiga tions Into the egg market in Atlanta, and hla report will not be completed before Saturday. I^ocal merchants seen by the government official said Friday they were sure the commis sioner has not found any sign of a trust or combination in this city. The Attorney General’s office ip Washington evidently believed At lanta to be a big egg-shipping center when It Instructed Baley to get on the trail of the price makers. Memphis is one of the biggest egg markets in the country, and is the big point of distribution for the South, and Baley may go there to try to uncover the combination. The gov ernment man, whose office Is in At lanta, has charge of th© Department of Justice work in seven Southern States. dressed, and needing it like anything, as the weather is growing rather chilly.

We ll take it (if you say so) that this Empty Stocking thing is a mat ter of plain business; that it i» part of Atlanta's manifest business duty to see that the balance of childish happiness on Christmas morning doesn't spill over into the debit col- uni n. That's plain business, even if At lanta didn't get a lot of fun out cf playing Santa Claus. Well, here's where another enter tainment is planned to follow the cel ebrated Tango Tea in mingling pleas ure with the business of filling At lanta's empty stockings this coming Christmas.

How To Do Your Share. That isn't what you want to think about Christmas morning, when your own kids are piling the breakfast ta ble with expensive toys. The way to switch the train of thought is to wrap up a check right now in an envelope, and write on it, "To the Christmas Editor of Tho Georgian. 20 East Alabama stre^-, Atlanta. Ga." and stick it in the mail box. Or. if you prefer, you can come right down to that address and hand over the money instead.

Hair that loses its color and luster, or when it fade*, turns gray, dull and life less, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mixture by asking at any drug store for a 50- cent Nit tie of "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- ' phur Heir Remedy.” which darkens the ! natr so naturally, so evenly, that no. 1 body can possibly tel! it has been up- I plied. Besides, it takes off dandruff. | stops scalp itching and falling hair Y<*u Just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking on»' small strand at a time By. morning the gray hair disappears: but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beau- 1 tifully darkening the hair aft*r a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and luster and gives It an . >pear- a nee of abundance. — AUv* A Special Sale of High-Grade Shoes at Allen*s * There is no use quibbling about a serious fact and trying to call a spade anything except a spade.
