It was a happy thought of Mrs
George Erast us Whitney to give fifty
copies of her book, "Yet Speaketh
He," to Pine Heights Tea Room,
anti a very graceful an<i genroua on«
as well. Mrs. Whitney is following
out the idea of the poet that a gift
should be a part of the giver, and
at the same time hag given some
thing that makes a* charming souve
nir for the tourist to take away.
At the foot of the new Greene
street bridge that will be turned
over to the city on the fourteentn
of April as a memorial to another
hero whom Augusta claims, there la
a rough granite boulder in which is
Inset a bronze tablet that tells how
the stone was erected to the mem
ory of Dennis Cahill, who lost his
life while endeavoring to save a lit
tle girl of the mill folk, who fell
from the bridge while he was work
ing on it. It was Judge Henry Ham
mond who took the first steps to
have this spot and heroic action
commemorated, and it is around this
stone that .Mrs. Whitney has written
"Yet SpenkeHl He.” The book is
typical of Augusta and additional
value -is given this contribution by
the fact that many of the copies are
autographed. They are on sale at
Pine Heights Tea Room and the en
tire proceeds of the sale will go to
the Young Women's Christian Asso
ciation building fund, for which Pine
Heights is operated.
The air is filled with the most de
lightful felicitations which are being
extended to two popular Augustans.

While as yet no formal announce
ment has been made, It is pretty
generally understood that one of tin;
most brilliant marriages of the
Spring will be that of a lovely Au
gustan. one of past season's most
charming debutantes, and one of Au
gusta's most representative men.
Miss Marguerite Boatwright has
invited a large number of friends
for the formal opening of Woodland
Tea Room, North Augusta, on Wed
nesday afternoon at four o'clock.
Woodland is one of the prettiest and
most popular Tea Rooms in the vi
cinity and those who hnve ever been
there will be delighted to again
know that it will, after Wednesday,
be open for the season. Woodland
is so pretty and attractive and is
always filled with the prettiest ami
most delicious Spring blossoms,
which add no little to its eharmirtg
environment. All kinds of delicious
delicacies are served In season and
card parties galore are held there.
Senor Andonegui is a public bene
factor when he gives his Sunday
afternoon concerts. This afternoon
he gives the first of the delightful
series and a splendid program has
been prepared. Of course everybody
knows that there is only a nominal
charge, or rather that there is no
specific charge, but a voluntary con
tribution is taken up for the ex
penses of the afternoon. The hour
of the concert is four o’clock, and a
cordial invitation is given the gene
ral public to attend. (
Mrs. Charlie Carr's guest narrow
ly escaped a very severe accident
last week. The Albert Twiggs' au
tomobile was returning with a num
ber of guests from the Irvin Alex
anders' party when it collided with
another car. Mrs. Adams, who was
on the front seat, was thrown
against the wind-guard and very
severely bruised. Her wounds, while
painful, were, fortunately, not seri
ous.
Mrs. J. C. Whatley ha-s as her
guests Miss Bessie Townsend of
Greenwood and Misses Frances and
Sara Bigham of Macon and Miss
Bessie Townsend. Mrs'. Whatley will
entertain on Thursday in their honor.
I want you to come to my party,
My annual Valentine Tea,
And to get the hours backwards.
From six to haJf-past-three.
In the evening again you will find
me.
At the same stand serving tea,
And my orchestra will inspire you to
Tango;
So, if you can, please come to my
tea.
—Rosamond Green.
On Bath.
The above explains Itself and is
one of the many pretty little Valen-
invitations that has been sent
out by Miss Green. Miss Green’s
ability as a hostess is so well known
and her guests always enjoy them
selves so much, that it goes with
out saying that all who have been]
sufficiently fortunate as to get an
invitation will make a point of be
ing present on this delightful occa
sion.
In a group of women enjoying a
bridge tea the other day the ques
tion was sprung by a pretty woman
who uses her ears for ornamental
purposes only, that It was simply
wonderful, or was It appalling, how
much the society editor heard, of
course, about other people's parties,
other people's business, and the
many little odds and end* that make
interesting reading matter, no mat
ter how personal so long as It does
not touch on one's own self. For
the edification of this fair lady he
it said that there are always peo
ple ready and willing to tell about
other people’s parties, and there are
not a few who are quite as ready
to tell of their own. Home of them
want to let It be known that they
have been invited and are at your
party, and some time they do It in
a fit of spleen, because you have
not invited them, and so the bail is
kept rolling. And then again, the
society editor is usually quite nice
and even tempered and occasionally
she gets an invitation herself. So
you see it Is easier than it seems.
The splendid service given patrons
at Fine Heights Tea Room was giv
en a line endorsement last week at
the opening, when one of the guests
—a man from New York —became so
enthused over the deftness and ex
peditiousriess as well as the grace
with which one demurer pretty maid
was serving him that he was over
heard to say to one of his friends
jjfgJ
that he wished he could get Iter to
go back north with him; that Ills
wife would le simply chained with
such s treasure. The pretty maid

popular young women and stio Is

Mr. C. A. Wood enjoys tile unique
distinction of being quite the most
expert tango dancer, among the men,
In tile city, nnd to see him dance to
to see the veritable poetry of mo
tion. Both he and Mrs. Wooti have
been delightful acquisitions to all
the dancing parties of the past few

be not only de rigour but to have
supplanted cards in a great meas
ure.

POOR MAN.
President Elliott of the New Haven
Railroad, condemning socialism, said:
“Man Is an acquisitive animal, and
socialism can’t come till he loses his
acquisitiveness. That will be never.
“The seven ages of man have been
well tabulated by somebody or other
on an acquisitive basis. Thus:
“ 'First age—Sees the earth.
“ ‘Second age—Wants It.
“ Third age—Hustles to get It.
“ 'Fourth age—Decides to he satis
fied with only about half of it.
“ ‘Fifth age—Becomes still more
moderate.
“ 'Sixth age—Now content to pos
sess a six-day strip of it.
“'Seventh Gets the strip.”—
Exchange.
RARE OCCASION.
“There was a sensational case of
