INA IS less Worn mere than seems hitting,
Il or rs one could wish. One feels, when
group OF senhoritas are met III the
pracas or seen III costly equipases on the
campo Grande, that unlike all other
women OF the Latin races they possess
no distinct air or style or presence OF
their own. In dress they are in fact
composite; and like Bayreuth architec-
turc which Is IN Europe the universal
simlle LOT every manner OF style lncoll-
Gruously composed, 4 Portuguese lady
often presents startling combinations OF
date and style in her most priced and
sumptuous attire. She still possesses 4
me carriage and figure, and, asl have
Z previously stated, certain honesty and
wholesomeness OF face. and look, and
particularly an ever glowing radiance
OF eye and smile, which command the
best sort OF liking and respect.
The artist and sentimentalist in gen
era! Will not find the poetic and rhaF-
sodlc type SO frequent here Us in Spain,
Italy and Algiers; but the compcnsa-
ton is at hand in better type OF wo-
manhood. In what may be formed the
middle classes there are lew ravlshinSly
beautiful women. They are often tall
and angular or short and stout, i'll

tivencss as with daintier women OF
petite and symetric figure. Women OF
the latter type are oftener forpd in
Lisbon in the two iarthest removed
classes, among the nobility and peasant
! and servant classes. Tho latter are
most invariably beautiful in face and
figure. So many OF the female servants
as may be seen upon the streets can
always be readily observed Mt the foun-
tains, where with the Gallegans they
perform the duties OF water carriers;
while they often to the number OF two
and three accompany their mistrosses
( for promenades or to the shops. Then
the flower market is full OF beautiful
girls; the daily procession of the fish
women from Bclem contains many ex-
traordinary types, though painfully
; straight from always carrying their fish
upon their heads; and the peasant wo-
mon who como with flowers, butter,
milk, eggs and cheese from the outlying
farms are almost invariably wenches OF
