TS the mark of a ‘“highbrow”
to be deeply interested in wva
rious subjects besides business.
But it is demoralizing to business m‘
times, and even to the lesser detalls
of daily life. A young married man
who has a congenia! bachelor musln,
finds recreation and amusement In
discussing welghty matters and ab- |
stract ideas and scientific Investiga
tions and world research, and all that |
kind of stuff, with him, between busi- |
ness hours and social engagements. |
"The other afternoon, when the two of*
them motored out toward home to
gether, they became deeply interested ’
in amnesia. They had a most In- |
teresting conversation, and were so
deeply immersed in their subject that t
the married man Insisted on his cous
in stopping for dinner with him-‘“so !
we oan continue our talk” he said. |
Nothing loath, tho bachelor followed |
s host in the house and the two !
‘were met at the sitting room door by |

up and seemingly ready to|
jeave the house on a moment's no-‘
“Why, 1 have brought George homs |
‘for dinner with me, so we can talk |
about amnesia. We are both inter
ested in amnesia’ And the wife,
with slight disgust, as Hashimura To- |

descended upon her. As she followed
the usher down the aisle everything
was & blur, and when he nonchalant
1y waved his hand in the direction of
a side aisle and said, “Seat there!”
she was completely dazed. A man's
murmured, “Right here, ma'm,” was
thankfully received, and she turned
and sank into the supposed seat with
a grateful, relieved sigh. Being seat
ed, she essayed to remove her hat
when she felt her elbow strike some
fiiaf behind her, and, turning in the
semi-darkness, discovered to her hor
ror that she was sitting in the man's
Jap! With a blush and many low
‘voiced apologies, she slid over in the
adjacent seat, ana the man, with the
W consideration, sat perfectly
sllent, only acknowledging her ‘apol
ogies with a little nod and a friendly
smile, and never once looking in her
direction again. But she could not
tell anything about the picture afier

ANY of the young girls, out]
M Peachiree way. of the age when
maidens are populariy sup
posed to be standing with reluctant
feet where the brook and river meet,
are, on the contrary, flylmmn the
street on skates with flus cheeks
and bright eyes and a constantly
changing series of graceful poses
which makes up a most fascinating
moving picture of maidenhood. 1 no
ticed one afternoon a bevy of these
girls, oecmlntl: with wings, so fast
and steadily did thay sail along. There
was Marian Stearns, “almost a young
lady,” at times, but not so much so
when on skates and having “a dandy
time.” And Lutie Speer, and Marie
Stoddard, and Emily West, and Eliz
abeth Millard, and goodness knows
how many more have become dev
otees of the skating fad this spring,
tor a final fling, 1 suppose, before
donning long skirts and doing up
their hair. Dorothy Haverty was one
of the girls who had found life miser
able because she was not skating.
“Oh, Dorothy's too grown up,’ her
friends would say, until Dorothy felt
like flinging off her guise of young
womanhood and becoming a little girl
who cries because she is unhappy.
You see Dorothy had outgrown her
skates and her mother and father,
seeing the joke on her, held out for
weeks and weeks, so Dorothy says, in
refusing to get her another pair. And
all that time the other girls were skat
ing and calling her a “grown-up.” But
now she has her skates and is leading
the procession sve:y rfiernoon.
HE side lines at the tea-dances
glean all the points of the new
styles to the best advantage these
days, along with more gossip than
Polly Peachtree would dare to think
of, much less print. 1 sat quietly l|l~i
tening at the Driving Club tea-dance
the other day, and after all my tronble{
1 could not get anything innocuous
enough for one of my little storles. |
However, there were several pretty
gowns and hats viewed to the best
advantage as the dancers whirled
around the ballroom, and one of these
was a “halo hat,” worn most becom
ingly by Dorothy Harmon. The halo
hat, be it known, is the very latest
craze in New York, and, unlike most
of the new “crazes” it is very charm
ing and attractive. Miss Harmon's
hat was of taupe chiffon, unlined, and
broad of brim, casting a faint shadow
over her sweet face, as halos are sup
posed to do, 1 believe. 1
A very pretty toilet of black and
white crepe was worn by Mrs, P, D,
Gold, an attractive and popular visi
tor here, at the *Capital City Club
dance Tuesday evening. Mrs. Gold's
dancing was also much admired at
Tuesday night's affair, and she was
quite “the belle of the ball.”
Indeed, %: of her partners, who
seemed Lo favored above the oth
ers, was so “pestered” for introduc
tions by a group of his friends in a
stag party waiting around for a
chance to “break in” that he finally
became quite rude, dontcherknow.
“Say, Henry, come here; | want to
ask you something” one after the
other of these “fellows” would call
out. And Henry would just waliz
away before them, with light words
of denial, such as. “Aw. g 0 on; | know
what you want to ask me, and [ am
not going tw el youl” = .

probably never before occupled such
a prominent place in the life here as
they did one morning this week, when
the Sicillan cart, donated by Mrs. J
. Mailery to the Alken Relief Socle
ty, was rafMed off on the pavement in
front of the offices of the society. [t
was a typical warm Aiken day, and
the scene was an amusing one. with
representatives of every winter home
in the throng on one of the main
streets of the town. Many who came
on horseback, in carts and in run
abouts did not dismount, and (he
street was blocked for an hour or
more while Miss Effie Hoffman, ihe
young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Josef
Hoffman, drew the 300 numbers out of
the box until the last one proclaimed
that Mrs. Charles Miller had won the
much-coveted gayly painted pony
cart. It was made by peasants in
Sicily eighteen yvears ago for Mrs.
Mallery’s son. Garrick Mallery, and
when early in the season the cart
was donated and put on exhibition in
the society rooms, along with a Ve
netian painting given by Mrs. . Oli
ver Iselin, and numerous other things
that were to be raffled, every boy and
girl in the colony invested all his or
her allowance money in chances. Bit
ter tears were shed by a young “Duc”
and nearly every other yvoungster who
wanted it
Mrs. Miller finally disposed of the
cart to Mrs. Thomas Hitchcock, wao
presented if to Mr. and Mrs. Julian
L. Peabody upon their arrival here
on Sunday. They will use it for their
voung baby.
Some of those at the sale included
¥Frederick Allen and his young son,
who were on horseback and preferred
to remain on the outskirts of the
drowd in the road and watch the pro
ceedings, while Mrs. C. Oliver Iselin,
who was accompanied by little Miss
Hopé Goddard llselin, and Mrs. Ar
thur Iselin, who had her youngsters,
superintended the drawing. The
yvoung Duc de Chaulnes, 6 years old,
was with his grandmother, Mrs, The
odore P. Shonts, and his aunt, Miss
Marguerite Shonts. The youngest
Hitchcock boy was with his great
anut, Miss Selestine Rustis. Miss
Roge Dolan rode up with her house
guest at “‘Calico Cottage,” Miss Pyne,
and Miss Winthrop, the young daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Rogers
Winthrop. Mr. and Mrs. Amos Tuck
French, who were married recently in
New York and have left for the White
