Garden When Sun reporter called at
the Garden to see Col. Cody she was told
that he could be found at his hotel. Col.
Cody was found, but he was so tagged by
long rehearsal, carried through by Bur-
fao Bill, that he declared tbat he couldn't
mink much less talk. This shows him to
he an unusual man, because the average
cod of creation can talk a blue streak
when he can't think.
81 wanted to talk to you on topics of in
terest TO women" remarked the Sun Wo-
man.
ooh" he exclaimed, that's an entirely
different matter" And he Strengthened
himself up and looked interested. Il do
love the ladies' especially Americans. Our
American women have got more style and
good looks than any other women on the
face of the globe. God Almighty did Him
self proud when He made the American
woman She is getting better looking
every day of her life, too. That is because
she is leading more and more life of
freedom If you raise an animal in cap
tvitv it does not thrive; 1t never grows
TO perfection or attains its natural beauty;
and the same is true of women. Our
American women have more liberty than
any other women in the world, and they
look Ike queens
1--WE Travelled in many countries, and no
where have seen such women as one sees
right here in New York. True, one sees
some very beautiful women in England,
but they do not dress as well as Americans
and haven't the dash. In Paris there are
very beautiful women, but they paint
their faces and tog themselves out in so
much 1nery and so many frills that I'm
derned if a man knows whether IL is Wo'
man OF a dream. American women are
4 pretty and Partisan women know how TO
/ make themselves pretty. That's the diff
ference There is as much difference In
the way that the French and the American
women dress as there is between the
Americans and the English. If our wo-
men wore the clothes and colors that theh
French sisters don we could hear EN-
coming. they would be so loud; and, on
the other hand, the women of this coun-
try dress conspicuously when compared
/ with those of England. Clothes aren't
necessary to make the American woman
eood-Ioolling. She is good-looking without
em, or what 1 mean to say is that she
/ looks Just as we'll in plain tailer-made
i gown as she does in silks, satins and faces.
Every now and then l hear some men
4 say that very few really handsome Wo-
/ men, few women with genuinely pretty
/ faces, are to be met on Broadway or Fifth
avenue in an afternoon. A man who says
that has liver complaint or has been as
appointed in love- l can see stylish,
distinguishing woman coming a olock
off, and when 1 walk out here or in any
American " haUp IN keen ewes on
the jump to get a glimpse of half the
beautiful women that. pass by. American
women walk so well. Don't you believe
any of this twaddle in foreign papers about
cur women walking awkwardly. Their
walk is grace itself compared with That

Our men have always allowed their wives
