Miss Hartweirs Debut.
Friends of Miss Mabel ( Hartwell, a
former popular member of Ashe
vllle'a younger set, have sent to The
Gazette-News the following partial
account of her debut, taken from a
Mobile paper:
"Surely the fairies must have, flow,
ered Miss Mabel Hartwell from the
first time she opened her big blue
eyes upon earth, for never has a girl
been blessed with more good fortune
than this one, a part of which for
tune is due to her own lovely un
spoiled nature rathel than luck which
is usually accorded to those so . en
dowed. "As a. popular debutante of this
season she began having1 compliments
showered on her in the early fall,
when she was selected as the queen
of the cotton ball and since that date
it has been one continual round of
social compliments with the finishing
touch given by her parents, Senator
and Mrs. Harry T. Hartwell, who for
mally presented her to society last
night at a delightful dance given at
the Cawthon hotel.
"White and green were the chosen
colors for the decorations of the
large assembly room of the Cawthon,
where the dance was given and were
carried even into the lobby which was
enclosed so as to enlarge the space of
the ball room for the dancers. On
the very threshold of the great
Christmas festival there was a bit of
the Christmas greens and the mis
tletoe introduced, just as a hint of
the merry yuletlde so near, wreaths
of holly hung between the lace cur
tains at each window while the
screens that closed in the lobby all
festooned with holly, added to the
Christmas ideas. Palms added to the
decorative effect and the mistletoe
twined around the columns with the
white lights agleam amid the green
leaves, gave the appearance of the
frost king having touched tne foliage
gently Just to carry out the color
tone in homage to the youth and
gladness of this girl, whose "coming
out party' was such an enjoyable
one.
"Mrs. Hartwell and Miss Hartwell
were assisted in receiving their guests
by the honoree's aunt, Mrs. Joseph
Hynde, and five of her lovely girl
friends. Misses Annie Moore Provost,
Margaret Blacksher, Loraine Cun
ningham, Katherine Monk and Edna
Manning, Mrs. Hartwell wearing; a
handsome gown of black tulle over
silver cloth with pearl trimmings
while her debutante daughter wore a
most exquisite dress of silver cloth
tinted in pink and lilac orchids which
showed through the silver net and
added to the becomlngness of the
sweet, fresh beauty of the wearer.
Her waist ef tulle and fish scales
was given the basque effect by the
long pearl fringe which made a
graceful trimming and the gold rose
caught at the side with its long stem
across the front of her gown and her
bouquet of Killarney roses with its
shower bouquet of valley lilies com
pleted the picture of radiant girl
hood, happy In the homage nnd love
of many friends.
"After welcoming her guests who
were confined to the young set the
inviting strains of the excelsior string
band from the balcony just over the
ball room was too tempting for the
impatient feet to wait longer in

COMB HE TEA. IN
LIFELESS, GRAY HAIR
If Mixed With Sulphur it
Darkens So Naturally No
body Can Tell.
Grandmother kept her hair beauti
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded of streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. By asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound," you will get
a large bottle of this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about 60 cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and Is splendid for dandruff,
dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur, because it darkens so natur
ally and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied it's so easy to use,
too. You simply dampen a comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair, taking one strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears; af
ter another application or two. It is
restored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant.
