Here at first one had an inclination to laugh when one saw the mothers dancing the Tango as well as the daughters, but if they do this in England do not let yourself be spiteful about it, Caroline. HERE AT FIRST ONE HAD AN INCLINATION TO LAUGH WHEN ONE SAW THE MOTHERS DANCING THAT ANGER AS WELL AS THE DAUGHTERS BUT IF THEY DO THIS IN ENGLAND DO NOT LET YOURSELF BE SPITEFUL ABOUT IT CAROLINE
mself, he will be disgusted with you if you forget your place with him. I believe this is quite unnecessary advice to you, Caroline, child, but I cannot help giving it, so unpleasantly surprised have I been at the behavior I have witnessed among some girls who ought to have known better. There is one other thing I have noticed and want to tell you about. I do not know if it applies to England now also because I have not been there since June, but here in Paris, for some strange reason, no one wears gloves when dancing the Tango! And the result is that these clever Parisiennes have taken unusual care about their hands--which seem whiter and more attractive looking than ever, with superlatively polished nails. It has brought in a regular cult of dainty fingers which I sincerely hope will spread across the Channel. Just consider how grateful we ought to be to the Tango if for no other reason! When one thinks of the unappetizing red fists such numbers of our country-women used to flourish!  MASTER RESPECTS HIMSELF HE WILL BE DISGUSTED WITH YOU IF YOU FORGET YOUR PLACE WITH HIM I BELIEVE THIS IS QUITE UNNECESSARY ADVICE TO YOU CAROLINE CHILD BUT I CANNOT HELP GIVING IT SO UNPLEASANTLY SURPRISED HAVE I BEEN AT THE BEHAVIOUR I HAVE WITNESSED AMONG SOME GIRLS WHO OUGHT TO HAVE KNOWN BETTER THERE IS ONE OTHER THING I HAVE NOTICED AND WONT TO TELL YOU ABOUT I DO NOT KNOW IF IT APPLIES TO ENGLAND NOW ALSO BECAUSE I HAVE NOT BEEN THERE SINCE JUNE BUT HERE IN PARIS FOR SOME STRANGE REASON NO ONE WEARS GLOVES WHEN DANCING THE TANGO AND THE RESULT IS THAT THESE CLEVER PARISIANS HAVE TAKEN UNUSUAL CARE ABOUT THEIR HANDS WHICH SEEM WHITER AND MORE ATTRACTIVE LOOKING THAN EVER WITH SUPERLATIVELY POLISHED NAILS IT HAS BROUGHT IN A REGULAR CULT OF DAINTY FINGERS WHICH I SINCERELY HOPE WILL SPREAD ACROSS THE CHANNEL JUST CONSIDER HOW GRATEFUL WE OUGHT TO BE TO THE TANGLE IF FOR NO OTHER REASON WHEN ONE THINKS OF THE UNAPPETIZING RED FISTS SUCH NUMBERS OF OUR COUNTRYWOMEN USED TO FLOURISH
