Anot h* r hostess of the younger mar ried .*?? ?. who faces the same prob lem of entertaining the notabilities whom it would naturally fall to her lot to entertain, without in-akin,; "functions" of her hospitalities, is Mrs. .himes Waa?iwarth, jr.. wife of tha ?eftiac Senator from New Vork. She is ?*. ?-eia 11?- a year or tara older tirali Mrs. MeCormiek. but identified with the same Washington set and period. Her father, John Hay was like Banaler Hanna, one of the pow an of the official world in McKinley*?* time.

And Mrs. Wads worth is aa prominent m the ant ?suffrage mo ve ulent as Mrs. MeCormiek Is in the suffrage movement. Each, be it ad mitted, has taken her cue from her husband.

Senator Wadsworth may not bava converted his to antisuffrage, out certain^? has probably strength ? ned her in it. His own point of view is entirely v.? ll known, and it is gen cralty expected that, though he may realize thai it is risking his political career, since New York has given i'.s women the vote, he will vote aKainst the suffrage amendment when it ? -tunes to a vote in the Senate. Mrs. Wadsworth watched the vote in the ? House from the gallery, and was deep ly disappointed at tlie result. I know, ? because? I sat near her, and watched bar "take her medi1 ine." She, too. is knee deep in war work; 1 and she also knits. Her organization opposed to woman suffrage has its ! hf;?di|uarters on ? street, only ? step from the .lohn Hay house, which is now Mrs. Wadsworths home, and 'Is knitting club meets regularly. ; Another ardently patriotic young reison, who is presumably of the anti ! puffrojto faith, since sho has been 1 brought up in it. Is Mrs. L*ansi.i*T'5 ? niece. Miss Nataline Dulles, who | spends much of her time in Wash ington. Mrs. Lansing, you know, is a leading "anti", as her father?and Miss Dulles* grandfather?the late Oen. John W. Foster was. One of their leading bits of campaign litera ture was a letter written by that old gentleman. Miss Dulles is one of the altogether nicest girls in Washington, and one of the nicest looking. She has been her aunt's chief aid in all her war work, spent a good part of her days playing shop girl down at the "Band box,1' Mrs. l^ansing's war shop, dur ing the month that it was open, and has been an invaluable assistant both in .Mrs. Lansing's Y. W\ C. A. work and in her State Department war work, where Mrs. Lansing spends so much of her time, that her friends are beginning to realize that without a deltnite engagement it is almost hope less to look for her at her home in Eighteenth street "during working hours." Just lately Miss Dulles has gone to Philadelphia to study nursing; in one of the hospitals. The assump tion ama that she was plsnning to go abroad, whew Mr, l^anaing'a two fl-4 ?ter? are already bard at work In thr 'soldiers' canteens. But Mrs. Laaslnv. ! says not. Apparently It Is rather will: the Idea of "b-stn* ready In case? " than with any Idea of immediately us ing the readiness when It le required She 1? rather young?certainly not much past '20? for her friends to want io aee her go over for soma tima anyhow. Another little lady who la knee deep In war work le Mrs. Walter Penheht one of the moat attractive and all around popular young persons in Washington. She's a mere girl? grad uated a couple of years ago from one I of the local flnlahtng schools, stayed 1 on for a week or two after the doae ? of school with some Washington ? mends before going to her home In omaha. and met her fate?Mr. Walter i l'enfleld, ? comparatively young law* ? yer who used to be In the State De j pertinent ?nd rather specialised on the I list?n Americana ?nd on linci?

Hut she picked Penfleld. ?nd in th? fall came hack te Washington as a bride. ' She waa received with open arms. ? Mr. Penfleld Is, I believe, counsel for ' some of the South American leaatlona. | which la perhaps why Mm. Penflald {playa around ? good deal with the Latin American diplomatic crowd. But f really she plays with every one, is met in all circles, snd seems to be ? equally popular In all. One hope? st- ! ' moat against hope ?hat she will not j be spoiled. She Is Much s blooming | rose of a girl now?so unaffectedly cor- , ?liai and friendly and mo utterly de- ? \ void of gush. 1 know of no one who ; has a better manner.

It was to have been ai Mrs. Henry Himock's, who had consented lo lend her house for the occasion, but it has already outgrown these igMMleil and hiis been transferred to the ballroom at 2-tOO Sixteenth street. The ball was a great sUi ceas, and if the fashion fet? Isn't, it will not be Mrs. penfleld's fault. H was a queer ball--so far ss the expected stain were eoncemed?a p< r formance of Hamlet without?at least ] half a dozen Hamlets. The President : and Mrs. Wilson were to have been there. They weren't, they were In ' Baltimore as all the world knows. I since the President made an Import ant address there that night. The ? ? re neh Ambasador and Mine Juss??* raad were to have beca there; cer tainlv M. Andre Tardieu was to be there. But they were in New York? both the Jusse rands and Tardieu. The Readings would bai? helped some, hut they were not visible?they were prob ably alao in Baltimore. Diplomats seem to feel that it ia perfectly diplo matii- for them to listen when the Presi ?nt sneaks. Quaint Idea. ? h. Iti fact the most important MB? h- is of the diplomtic circle I ret: al! *ng at the ball were the ?ia t?a ?... and M. de Cartier de Mar en ;??. the Belgian M i ni s tei , though ?? dly the embassies were fairly v. ? ii represented, even though their eh - wer? absent, and the vaiious wei inii-sions were out in forre. Kveii ot the cabinet hostesses the only one present so far as I know was Mrs. Daniels. Mrs. Lansing is not going to parties, as she is in mourning: Mrs. Baker was in Balti more, singing for the soldiers; Mrs. Hoiislon was in New York; Mrs. Mc Adoo was in Philadelphia?and I don't know where the others were. The President's box was oceupied ? part of the evening at least?by ])oui_las Fairbanks, Mary Plckford and Charlie Chaplin?movie stars who were helping Washington launch its Third liberty bata drive. An yet it was a highly lacceeefal hall- -financially?since all expenses were met by private subscription, and all the money taken for tick j ets was clear proni for the blind j .und. And the people who were j there had a good time, and there ? were l roan- when they found that j it was realty being wound up at ? midnight. The tickets had stated I that it would be?but people didn't! take it in?or. If they did, they didn't believe it. And it was an interesting ball.' | Things happened. Charlie Chaplin; ? sold $30,000 worth of liberty bonds; j Taversham and his stately wife | Julie Opp, came over after his per j formance, and "gave the girls s I treat." rjuite overshadowing even I Charlie Chaplin and Mary Pick ford and "Doug"?for they had been there long enough for curi osity to be satisfied. And down in the supper room?well, the supper was of the sketchy sort that Wash ington balls are affecting this sea son, and not worth going after, but a pretty girl was kissed by her cavalier, in full view of the entire supper room?and another pretty girl, who will be a bride before the end of the month, puffed a cigarette TODAY'S BEAUTY HELP .1 We find you <-an bring out the beauty of your hair to IU very best advantage by washing it with Can throx.
