There is so much patriotism in the

provincialism, that men, all over the

American women are the most beauti-

are quits, and I feel have a right to
express myself on French topics quite
as freely and independently as on any
other country. l thoroughly believe
that the French women are the most
charming and certainly the most sensi-
bic women (wheFe would France be
now but for the women2), but they are
far from being beautiful They have
the complexion and Shapely figures of

them charming is that they have a lit
