TT you can dance the two-step and,
above all, if you have good sense
Of rhythm, the tango is one Of the
easiest Of the new dances.
It is not the old tango of the stage,
which was nothing less than an aero
batic performance. but it is a pretty,
easy and graceful dance. and as every
body's doing it, Mr.. and Mrs. Vernon
Castle We're asked especially to show
just how the tango is done for the read
ers of this paper.
IN the first place" said Mr. Castle,
the upper part Of the body must be
held perfectly straight. The shoulders
must be squared man should be able
to balance a penny on them. There Is
none Of that graceful bending of the
shoulders. The shoulders and the body
are held as in the old-fashioned cake
walk"
And in the next place the man must
know how to guide" insisted dainty
Mrs. Castle "and his hold must be firm
and yet loose enough so that the lady
can move easily to the side positions"
The peculiar dip or turn of the floor
that makes the tango what ii is. a for
eign and fantastic dance, is done by
twisting the leg from the knee down
There is no swaying of the body, for
the drawing room tango is quite sim

Tightening the Lovers Burden
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

shelves Nine times out of ten the
lover returns to his first love, having IN
the meantime, man fashion, complicat-
ed his affairs by making love to the
other girl The first girl has an oppor-
tunity for teaching him lesson. In
stead. she welcomes him and forgives.
Appeal to Fairness.
If there we're one little grain of fair
ness in this mans makeup, | would APP
peal to that grain in this way
Your sweetheart had the right TO go
with the other man. She broke no en-
gagement with you in accepting his in
vitation and she violated no social or
moral law. If you, a bundle of incon-
sistencies want her love you must not
treat her as you would treat an office
boy whose time is yours to command.
Don't get into any heart entangle-
ments with second girl. That is not
a way out Of trouble.
See the second girl no more, and de-
vote every effort to proving to the f1rst
girl that you love her for her sake and
not for your own Always remember
ing that love is not the fruit of tyranny
and injustice.
You write that you told her you
would never forgive her. Don't go to
her and say you have forgiven her Bite
farther into your share of humble pie
by declaring that there was never any
thing TO forgive and she must forgive
you for thinking so.
You said you would never call on her
again. Ask forgiveness for that also.
and regard every opportunity to call as
a privilege you DO not deserve
When you have made up, which /
do not doubt will result the heart of a
girl being as easy to besiege as a house
of cards, devote the balance of your
days to assuring her you never cared
for the other girl.
This will be a part of the penance
she will exact from you to the end Of
your days.

Married Life---Third Year ByMszd Hz5cz u,ne

many gratifying things Mrs. Barton had
read in her hand. Yet Mrs. Barton had
read several other hands that evening,
overheard she had been equally complI-
mentary to them all
So Helen's feeling of self satisfaction
was modified by the thought the posi- =
bly, hattering generalities were the main
part of Mrs. Barton's system of palm
istry. Perhaps that accounted for her
popularity in drawing room gatherings.
Later in the evening, after the maid
had brought in the sandwiches and the
claret punch, Mr.. Stevens suggested
that Warren have his palm read.
Helen glanced nervously toward him.
She had often heard him denounce
pamistry is rot" and was afraid he
would make some scofing remark.
However, as Mrs. Barton was sitting
beside him. he restrained his comment
to a brief

ago as you held a glass. Do let me
see it-just for a moment"
Reaching over, she took his reluctant
hand and spread out the fingers.
"Oh." with a little gasp of astonish-
ment, what a REMARKABLE hand! "
She bent over it more closely as though

It's" looking up at MIN, her eyes aglow,

never seen one so strongly marked.
Oh, you MUST let me read It! Come
over by the light"
Her method of attack was effective.
for Warren sat down by the light and
held out his hand The others gath
cred around to listen.
It's an inspirational hand" declared
Mrs Barton, "the hand Of a born lead

He tried to say it carelessly, but
Helen. who was following every word
and expression, could see that he was
both pleased and impressed

Helen knew that Warren cared very
little for music He had no musical
ability whatever, and no discrimination,
his preference being for the hand organ
variety Yet he murmured an assent
to her question
The group that had gathered around
to listen had already drifted away. for

forward and turn, dip and turn the
foot at the fourth beat. Where regular
tango music is played there is a slight
pause at every fourth bar which the
dancers fill out by the dip.

They sat together in a coy little al
cove, and bye and bye he took his cour-
age in both hands-and proposed.
There was no hesitation on the lady's
part as she accepted, and moment

she nestled closely to his manly breast.
Suddenly she started frowned and

The steps can be done forward, back,
to the side and in open position for
ward. but always with the dip and
turn of the knee. Almost every couple
have some variation of their own,
dancing the tango without touching. the
girl with her arms extended. the man
with his behind him, but always in per-
feet rhythm.
In dancing forward in open position
the steps must be Of precisely the same
length apd the turn of the knee done at
the same time and with the same
amount of force. That is the whole
trick in dance that looks more COM
plicated than II really is.

"A change in what way?" asked War

smile of satisfaction, for to arouse the
interest of a skeptical man is the am
bition OF every feminine palmist. "I
should say your business at that pc
riod would be most successful, and that
it would probably take you much
abroad, for here are marked travel
lines"
Il suppose you can't tell the nature
of the business?" asked Warren.
"Oh, no, the palm doesn't show that
You see, it's limited science. There
are many things we cannot tell. But
when hand is so wonderfully marked
as yours we can read in It much more
than in the ordinary palm. For in
stance, this shows your temper-you
see how strongly marked it Is. You
have really very violent temper. but
you have ii under perfect control |

Helen bit her lip to keep from laugh

Then Mrs. Barton went on 10 dwell

strength, his cool courage in time IF

Helen saw she was laying it on as
thickly as she dared, and that Warren
in his egotism was taking it all most
seriously. Oh why could he not see
through her? She was simply playing
with him, seeing how far she could %
how much he would stand She was
making him ridiculous, and would
probably joke about his blind egotis,u

At last Helen could stand it no lon
