AS an indication Of what dancing
has done to fatten bank accounts, the
New York newspapers have during
the last week contained an announce
ment of the sale Of two magnificent
private dwellings on the exclusive
section of West Fifty-seyenth street,
opposite Carnegie Hall. The dwell
ings were sold to Louis H. Chalif.
The homes will be dismantled and
one Of the finest dancing studios in
the world will be erected on the site.
Peculiarly enough Chalif does not
represent the modern tango craze,
but rather is student of the higher
forms of dancing-the interpretive,
the classic and the national dances.
The modern, aesthetic and classic
dances seem slowly to be gaining a
popularity that was once accorded
the slides, hops and jumps. Many
predict that the now skating craze
will entirely eliminate the tango
fad. 4

To Remove Hairs
(TOilet Talks)

(Toilet Talks)
Keep a little delatone powder on
your dressing table, and when ugly,
hairy growths appear. make a paste
with a little of the powder and some
water, apply and let remain on the
hairy surface for two or three min
utes, then rub off, wash the skin and
the hairs have vanished. This treat
ment is quite harmless and rarely
more than one application is required,
but to avoid disappointment, care
should be used to buy the real della
tone.-Adv.
