The super,or American Girl


Young men of BALKAN who may be
about to marry the other night were
given advice by Mr.. Max O'Rell, says
the London News. MIR. O'Rell has dis
covered only two countries where men
are In leading strings-his own and the
United States. or the women of both
lands he dlscoursed with enthusiasm.
The French wife, he said, Is her hus-
bands friend. confidant and business
partner. To this circumstance Is due,
In his Judgment the fact that France
Is today the richest country In the
world-richest, that Is, In evenly dis
tributed wealth, - per cent of the pop
ulation outside Paris owning their own
homes. He went on to affirm that the
Frenchwoman Is supreme In the poll
tics of matrimony She knows Ii Is
question of remaining not beautiful.
but interesting; hence her little bus
Ting ways and her varied manner of do
ing her hair. In this country marriage
was looked upon as the end Of love
making, but in France, after marrying
your wife. you had to win her-a proc
ess very pleasant. Ii 80 many kisses
were not INDUCED In before marriage
In this country. there would be more
afterward. In France not more than
one man In every 500 belonged to
club. AS for women's clubs-ugh!
Having seen the way the poor Amer
lean millionaires lived they being too
tired on Sundays to tell their children
stories). the advice he felt compelled
to give everybody was: Live well and
i've as long as you can. You will never
have another chance" Beads of per-
spiratlon on the Yankees brow crystal
lized into diamonds on the necks of his
women folks.
American girls Mr.. Max O'Rell prals
ed without stint. The animation of
their features, the brilllancy of their
conversation, their freedom from afiec-
lation, the picturesqueness of their Ian
guage - oh, they were glorious and
UNIQUE! The American girl of II or Is
WAS allowed almost every liberty. and
she took the others. Europe was sur
prsed that she had a latchkey and
staid out late with young men. Dear
old Europe; dear old museum! The
most vulgar American man could, in
the matter Of how to behave to women.
teach a lesson TO the men of the old
world. even TO Frenchmen. His com
patriots in thai matter were living too
much on the reputation of their ances-
tors. Frenchman, when he made
WAY for n lady, looked at her; an Amer
lean in similar circumstances lowered
his eyes The former sighted the miss;
the latter missed the sight. In conclu-
sion Mr.. Max O'Rell enthusiastically

says the Philadelphia Inquirer. is full
Of her. Her little sister is crowded out
and can only stand TO one side and ad-
mire. The men Ike her even those
whose silk hats reach but to her shout
der. Tall though she is. she never
makes them feel their inferiority. With
her Dianalike tread she walks on, car
rying all before her.
Many theories have been put forward
to account for the sudden appearance
of the tall girl. She did not use to be
here In such profusion. How can she
be accounted for? There Is no evidence
Of drugs In the market like the "ant-
fat" and the "antilean." We never
hear of "antshort pills" Should such

me not ii could run night and day and
then hardly supply the demand, for the
short girl every day feels her inferior
lty.
Men have an idea that fashions are
haphazard. guided by no fixed laws,
and are brought about by no great
movement of the times. But women
know otherwise and doubtless feel that
this tendency toward the prevalence
Of the tall girl is due somewhat to the
fact that women are becoming tall as
part of their outfit for taking the place
of men In this world and that the truly
emancipated woman is likely to ex-
pand physically as well as mentally;
that as she is beginning to look upon
man intellectually she is likely to have
a corresponding physical standard.

space Of over five months. The pri q
cess has already become such favor
