If T eveT decide to learn the tango

take lessons from the teacher who
taught Charlie Rainwater and his
, ^harming wife Did you see them
| the other day at the tango tea In the
Pjedmont# TCvervone had been one-
stepping and hesitating when the or
chestra struck up a tango The real
truth about the tango Is that very few
rtrls and not one man In fifty can
dance tt. Consequently there was no
rush for the floor. The only couple
that started were the Rainwaters
They went through the entire dance
j alone and T hare never seen It danced
1 better Neither one missed a step and
they danced figure* that would have

Almost »vwyon« knows the' Rage Tern
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and lus
ter to the hair when faded, streaked or
gray: also cures dandruff Itching scalp
and stops falling hair Years ago the
«»nly w«\ to get this mixture was to
ake it at home, which is musey and
i roubleeome
Nowadays skilled chemists do this
better than ourselves By asking at
any drug store for the ready-to use
product called "Wyeth's Rage and Sul-

druggists make their own. but it s
usually too sticky so insist upon got
ting "Wyeth's," which can be depended
upon to restore natural oolor and beauty
to the hair, and is the best remedy for
dandruff, dry. feverish. Itchy scalp and
to stop falling hair.
Folks like "Wyeth's Rage and Sul

pi AR be it *rom me to mention any
* names, but have you noticed the
long line of bachelors and wid
owers wearing long faces these days.
The reason, of course, is the marriage
of Mrs. J. B Whitehead. I would
love to know the number of men more
than 25 years old who have proposed
to Mrs. Whitehead In the last two
years. A goodly percentage of the
unmarried men in town thought it
was their mission in life to make a
home for that handsome widow. One
almost loscreplt beau remarked to
me not long since:
"Isn’t it a shame that a home-lov
ing woman like Mrs. Whitehead has
to live at a hotel? Wouldn’t It be
fine if she married a man of middle
age to look after her?”
"What do you mean by middle-
age?” I naked
"I’m middle-aged,” he said se-
rloowply.

S PEAKING of widow* and wid
owers. there Is a widower bless-
ed with lots of worldly goods
who Intends soon to follow the lead
of Mrs. Whitehead. His home is not
so many block* from her Peachtree
street house, and I expect the an
nouncement of his engagement will
cauw almost es much of a flutter as
did the news of Mrs. Whitehead’s
marriage 9

While T am clattering about wed
dings and widows and widowers and
other things, I want to way one more
word about the way the younger
swains behave, or rather misbehave,
at wedding pnHIes If I had my way,
we would go back to the old custom
of having a secluded buffet for the
exclusive use of the Intimate friends
of the bride’s father. The women
could get along very well without
anything to drink, and the youngsters
who don’t know how to behave when
they have it should be kept well aw\v
from it Many of my slaters, and
little brothers, will fuss at me for
fhia Idea, but I don’t care If they do
-I mean every word of It.

be held at the Wlnecoff Hotel Mon
day evening after the theater, and for
the benefit of the Empty Stocking
Fund that The Sunday American and
Georgian Is trying so hard to help
along.
Quite a new wrinkle, isn't It, this
after-theater party? And when you
come to think of It, the Inspiration
that prompted the hour seems heaven
sent. Sometimes, after I leave the
theater, and sit for five minutes sip
ping a hot chocolate or something, I
walk out on the street to find that
Atlanta Is dark and dull and forbid-
fling. No gayety, no brightness. Noth
ing but a Milledgevllle-like stillness
and quietness and dismalness. And 1
blush a bit for Atlanta's lack of life.
Funny, isn't It, that the hotel man
agers haven't awakened to the
thought 1hat, there being no enter
tatnment after the theater In Atlanta,
such an innovation as an evening tan
go party would make a remarkably
profitable Institution for them.
Anyhow, there will be this one at
the Wlnecoff Monday night. And
come, won't you, for the‘sake of your
Christmas duty.

AD you thought how some styles
originate from necessity? For
fully two months Parts has
been wearing tango hats, and 1 have
been wondering why they should. My
doubts are at last settled by trying
to dance In one of those little things
with feathers shooting off the baek
sticking every other person you pass
on the shoulder and absolutely ruin
ing the feather. The first tango bon-
noet woryt in Atlanta was at the dan-
sant at the Piedmont Monday after
noon given for the benefit of the
Empty Stocking Fund. Its chief
charm consists In Its well-flttlng
crown, which hugs the coiffure tight-
I ly, so that while denying milady is
not annoyed by a constantly shifting
hat. as she indulges In whirls and
dips and weird strides. One side of
| the bonnet slants skyward In a rath-
I er rakish position while the other is
' only two inches high with one little
] flower to trim It, such as a white
I gardenia or one pink rose. Do you
j remember a hat like that? Maybe you
can guess who Aore the novelty.

B REACHES In etiquette among
society folk generally are over-
I looked, because the ones guilty
' of such mistakes are usually top-
| notohers In the bluebook. Ignorance
or carelessness is generally the cause
of such digressions. I would hate to
think that any of, our young people
' were ignorant of the time-worn ous-
1 tom of answering invitations prompt-
lv. I hear from many hostesses this
j season that hardly any replies come
In until the last minute, and you
might us well not answer at all as
late. A hostess, especially one en
tertaining at seated affairs at clubs,
can't begin to teil how many she must
order for until her invitation, en
graved "kindly reply.” has been ac
knowledged in some way. Do y r >^
think the engravers place thos two
little words there for ornament? No;
our good hostess has paid extra for
that line, and she means somethmg
| bv it. One friend blames the v.uWig
I married people, who ought to know
at least a week ahead of time what
I engagements they mean to aoce >t.
Some young men are to blame, tool
If they would select their partners for
I these occasions tn time for the girls
to reply, the greatest and most com
mon breach of' etiquette might be
covered over.

Many people are fond of suede

When the kidskin Is cleaned—aud

It is more elastic, Is thinner and is

The perfect corset lines to be ac
quired this season duplicate the lines
of one’s figure, aided and abetted, to
some degree of restraint, by whale- .
bone and lacing only below the waist
line, not above It.
Indeed, if new styles of dressing
provide madame with ample fullness- ;
es and puffs and draperies around her
hips, she may not even be required
to submit to any particularly tighten
ing anywhere.
However, at present most people
feel the need of corset support. There
are Innumerable styles to select from,
but all adhere very closely to the
established demand for a topless cor- '
set
You see, the'reason for this is due
to the ruling of the kind, O. very kind,
