Many of you, I sup pose, have read with keen Interest the tale she lived to tell—that Is, the book which Miaa Carl wrote of her expe riences In the Imperial Palace of the Lotus Lilies (or something like that) after she got back home. Well, I hear that Mias Carl has painted another portrait which will interest us. for the eubject is one of Atlanta’s charm ing girls, Marjorie Brown. The por trait has created something of a sen- sation In New York because of its apeaking likeneas.

The work was done by Miss Carl the past year, while Marjorie was in New York, for the entire win ter, except for frequent short visits to her cousins in the White House at Washington. • • • I HEAR that Arrington Butt, the Engliah lassie who is visiting here, has a very clever Joke which she perpetrates on new acquaintances from time to time. There are no rep etitions In any one city, for obvious reasons, but the first time Is always a grand success An Atlanta man— name unknown—figured In the Joke carried out last week by Miss Butt, who, by the way, cays she is not Eng lish, but American, even If she does spsak "pure English” 'Twas while she was the guest of Lyda Nash at East Lake that one evening, several young men being among those pres ent, the subject of quick marriages came up, or was brought up by the sly Jokester. After gradually leading up to the point, the young man chosen for the party of the second part in the Joke, was Informed by Mist* Arrington Butt, of Liverpool, England, that she would marry him right away If he said the word. Well, the young man was game, all right. So the entire party got Into an automobile and rode out to Decatur, where the young man knew a minister was to be had The door bell was rung and the minister routed out of his comfortable couch at 11 o'clock In the evening. Then the young man came back to the waiting bride-to-be (?) and her friends, when he was told to "Jump In quick,” the chauffeur unloosed the power that propelled the car, and the party went off as fast as the car would go before the astonished bridegroom-elect could realize that he and the minister were "It," all right! And they say the same thing hap pened In Augusta, only the bride groom was nn Augusta man. • • « T HE Importance of the June bride on the social horizon is threat ened only by the bridesmaid. A careful bride selects her maids with a view' to the effect, not only on the tout ensemble, but on herself partic ularly. She la a girl who knows her own points, who is willing to have a bevy of real beauties in her bridal party—or, for the matter of that, Is willing to have real beauties as "chums" before the time comes to se lect her bridesmaids. The three times and out fallacy has been proven again and again by Atlanta girls who have achieved a habit of being bridesmaids. Nearly All of the home wedding par ties of the present season will be largely made up of Atlanta girls, though several visitors will also fig ure In the bridesmaid contingent. Eliza Dancy, of Baltimore, comes to be a maid at Jane Thornton’s wed ding. and Mildred Sykes, of Missis sippi, has already arrived to be In F&mfie May Ottley’a wedding group. Bertha Moore's bevy of nine pretty girls (goodness me!) will include five outrof-town maids—a fair proportion, ! I suppose, as she U to go to their I town as a bride. Margaret Gage is ! coming over from Birmingham “to j attend” Mary King. And vice versa j to all this, Atlanta girls will figure in l out-of-town weddings. Almee Hun- nlcutt will "maid” a New Orleans friend, and Alice May Freeman goes to Birmingham to act as bridesmaid at the marriage of her friend, Dorothy Johnson, on the 17th. • * • T HE calling of girls by their first name is a privilege enjoyed by all the men and boys "In their set,” as a general thing. So If any Atlanta man wants to use a name for his fiancee that non* of the other fel low's uee he has to <4ll her "Sweet heart”—and even then he may not be the only one! I have always thought the custom a little too promiscuous, as It were, and have never become ac customed to the ease with which ev ery man in town Is calling a visitor by her first name the day after she gets here. But there is a young visi tor here at present who upsets my theories. Out at the East Lake din ner-dance Wednesday evening Miss Woolley, of New York, the guest of Ida Winshlp for a long stay (let us hope), was so altogether fetching In her smart sports suit of American Beauty corduroy and Panama hat banded In the same bright shade, to match her sunny brown hair and smiling brown eyes—ahe v.as so tall and slender and graceful and gay— what else could she be called but a Delight? • * • Y OU have heard of the man who said he had never seen a child until his own son was born. There are Mts of people who. while not going to that extreme, yet have a keener interest In other children when they have one of their own. So it has been with our friend, Mrs. Rlngland Fisher Kilpatutck, of New York, who was a former Atlantan and very pop ular here. The many friends of Mrs. Kilpatrick will appreciate the -little story told by a returning Atlantan the other day. Mrs. Kilpatrick’s charming young son has endeared all ’’kiddies" to the young mother and when she was out on a long motor trip the other day she was more than horrified to hear a woman scream and to see another woman and a man struggling to get the distressed wom an’s child from her arms. Mrs. Kil patrick had the t ar slowed down and for a few moments watched the un equal fight, the woman from whose arms the child was being torn show ing by her distress and desperate courage that It was her own little one for whom she fought Presently the tender-hearted mother could stand it no longer, so she Jumped on* of her car and angrily went to the rescue. P. fe.—Yee, It was a* "movie” in the making, but Mrs. Kilpatrick felt much better, even at that, than If she had rolled on and left a struggling mother to her fate. • * • D OWN by the sad sea waves which lap the coast of Florida the Joke was played, and by the waves themselves. No; of course you do not believe It, but It Is so, Just the same. Girls, you remember one Mr. Lyles Black, of Nashville, who danced so divinely at the clubs after the opera this spring? Sure, you remember, and I’ll wager some of you have this story before I had It, via “a regular correspondence”—eh? Chancing to be at a pleasant beach a week or so ago, Mr. Black decided to go In for a swim early one morning, despite the fact that he had danced almost all night. He had a nice plunge and a gay frolic in the water; then decided to go ashore and wait for his com panions, who showed signs of spend ing the entire morning in the sea. He lay down on the soft sands and the cool breezes swept over him, and— well, he went to sleep. How long he slept he never knew, but he dreamed that he was in a torpedoed boat and had been thrown out to drift for hours and hours and hours, when suddenly a grating slide over wet sands and a decided bump which sent a Jar through his entire body awakened the dreamer and he found that while he slept he had truly been rocked In the cradle of the deep. The tide had car ried him out and brought him back, still sleeping, only to rudely awaken him with a horrid bump as he struck the beach again. • • • S S Mr. Horine’s conduct through the entire affair was that of a "perfect gentleman,” I see no reason why I should not tell you about It. The Incident happened at the Greek play given on the lawn of the Slaton residence the other eve ning—or. rather, it happened Just aft er the play; for when Mr. Horine brought his car to take two or three members of his family home, accom panied by "some of the others who are going with us,” according to the vague information previously imparted by his daughter, and a lone woman ap- i prooched, showing unmistakable signs | of getting Into the car, Mr. Horine I descended and gallantly handed her to j a seat. He supposed her to be his j daughter's friend, .whom he should j know, but did not. When daughter ! and her friends, arrived to find a woman already ensconced, they sup posed her to be a friend of Mr. Ho- rlne's, whom they probably should know—but did not. After a while, as the members of the party were dropped off at their homes one by one, it finally dawned upon the owner of the car that nobody knew the strange woman at all. So i Mr. Horine politely asked: "Where shall I put you down, mad- ame?” “Oh, I live on Washington street.” said she. ”but you can put me off at the Piedmont and I will catch the car there.” * Then Mr. Horine decided she thought his auto was a Jitney bus, but when she started to descend she knocked that Idea gky high by sweetly asking: “To whom am I indebted for this ride?” Curtain! « her work or in her appearance from the time she first came upon the stage until she left it. Ably seconded in her efforts to create the Illusion of a Forest of Arden, filled with lovers of high and low degree, was Rosalind of the sunny curls and deep blue eyes by Victor Victor as Touchstone, W. F. Moore as Jacques, Mrs. Shallenber- ger as Celia, Lamar Hill as Orlando— and all the rest of the merry crew. In fact, they were just so good that I for one gasped In absolute astonish ment. Take It from me, nothing In the past ten years, at least—whirti is as far back as I remember— has ever surpassed (and I am tempted to say equaled) the production of "As You Like It” by the Habersham Players in the wood adjoining the Peel residence on Peachtree road Thursday afternoon for purely artistic achievement by amateurs. And during the entire per formance nothing happened to inter rupt or mar the occasion, except that a little bit of a dog took It into his head to bark at the moon a few min utes, which really did not matter at all. And nothing was forgotten in the arrangement of things, except to no tify the Southern trains to stop for the afternoon or, at any rate, to go by the Forest of Arden without so much puffing and tooting! Aunt Sally’8 Advice to Beauty Seekers K C. F. asks: “Will you tell me ho* to get my hand* white and soft? They have become rough and are eo dark in contrast to my arms.’ The method m,,,. tinned in reply to Elolse should brim the desired result*; wear glovee to pre- vent soiling the bed linen. D. N. A. writes: "How can I reduoe a double chin? Also how gel rid of crow's feet?" Use a wash lotion pro. pared by dissolving 1 os. powdered saio. llte in Vi pt- witch hasel. This tighten, the skin, tending to disperse wrinkle, as well as flabbiness about the ohtn w elsewhere. Eloise says: "My freckles are than ever this year, made doubly eon. spicuous by a pallid complexion. 1, there any cure?' Ask your druggt,t for an ounce of mercolued wax, apply nightly like cold cream, removing In th* morning with warm water. As the wax gradually absorbs the lifeless cuticle, not only will the freokles vanish, but the new and younger skin which sp. pears will have a healthy color. Prob. ably you will need to continue treat, merit a couple weeks or so,—Woman’, Realm.—Advertisement. y e ES, indeed; all the world’s a stage and that bit of it selected for the Habersham Players’ debut the other afternoon was more suitable than any made-up stage could have been. And all the men and women are merely players, hence the general excellence of a cast selected from the rank and file of Atlanta's social set to present a difficult and highly artistic masterpiece, which they did In a most pleasing manner, too! Of course, there were "high lights”—there are In real life—for while all of us "strut and fret upon the stage we play many different parts, and play them with a great variance of degree in either suc- ? r failure. I have often seen Mrs, Jarnagin In amateur theatricals, and each time I am more convinced that she was one among ten thou sand with "the divine fire,” who had she chosen, could have made a great , name for herself in the world of art Her Rosalind, too. was the best she has ever done, and as nearly perfect as I can Imagine the role to be.

All kinds of Does Your Baby Get Hungry Between Regular Feedings? am The baby should sleep peacefully between feedings — if you feed him regularly. If the baby wakes up and cries fretfully and gnaws his little hands, you are probably not giving him enough to eat. Your breast milk is best, of course, but it may be too thin. Add a feeding each day of Nestles Fooci the nearest to mother’s milk. Later, you can give him two feedings of Nestlc’s each day, and then three, until your baby is entirely weaned without trouble or worry. Don’t think that cow’s milk can taka tha placa of your breast milk. Over and over again scientists and doctors have told us that cow’s milk is too heavy for your baby. Its big, thick curds settle like lead in his little stomach. And cow’s milk may bring sickness. With the help of medical science, Nestle s Food has removed all the dangers of ordinary cow’s milk for you. Tha basis of Nestlc’s is milk — milk taken from carefully examined cows in sanitary dairies — with sll its harmful parts modified and with your baby’s special needs added — reduced to a powder and packed in air-tight cans so that no sickness can get near it Send the coupon for the big sample can. and you will soon find out why the mothers of three generations have used Nestle’s.
