Mr.. Stallo is the son of Judge ]. B
Stallo. minister to Italy under PSesi
dent Cleveland. He lives here in New
York at the waldorf-Astoria. with his
second wife. who was Mrs. Dan r
Hanna, wife of the son of the late
Senator Mark Hanna. They were di
vorced. Mr.. Mcdonald did not take
kindly to his son-in-law's second mir
rage.
In London the two pretty Stale
girls stay at the home of Mrs. James
Mcdonald. wife of the London repre-
sentative of the Standard Oil and one
of their nearest relatives. Mrs, Nc
Donald is one of the smartest Anglo
Americans in all England and enter
tains lavishly. but in excellent taste
But nope OF this for her young guess
1t is the simple life in London as 1t is
here in New York or in Cincinnati.
| Mrs. Mcdonald has just come over
to pay them a visit and she has had
much to say to writer for the World
Magazine concerning Anglo-American
marriages and the American girl
abroad.
"London Loves the American Girl"
London loves the American girl.
said Mrs Mcdonald at the st. Regis
but the American maxwell. he ia
only tolerated. 1t would be hard for
an American woman to have to choose
between her own countrywomen and
the English women for her friends,
but II she is like me she would love
both.
THE American women are beact!-
full. vivacious, daring and most enter
tanning They are excellent company
and they are distinctive. The Eng
lish women are quiet. reserved. prob
ably not quite as pretty. but no less
attractive. steadfast friends and are
| themselves distinctive.
The Englishman admires the Amer
lean girl. He likes to talk to her, to
entertain her; but to marry her-why,
that is a different matter. He doesn't
understand her.
Natures Are Different,
ITO trace the cause of the trouble
in many of the International alliances
between American girls and English
men that have turned out unhappily
one would need go to the very nature
of the man and woman.
THE American woman never looks
to her husband as master. while the
English woman is taught to do so

lieve himself the unquestioned head
of the house. 1t is his right. he hon
estly believes. to command. An Amer
lean man. If he would leave his wife
for a moment. would beg to be ex-
cused. An Englishman in a like posi-.
ton would likely point to a chair with
the curt command. Sit there; I'll be
back in a moment. and stalk out OF
the room.
AT the same time. Englishmen mar
ried to English women make good hus
bands, and l think English women
make even better wives than Ameri
can women. The English girl is taught
to love her home. 1t is an ideal for
which the is always striving. They

to travel alone. 1t Is that reason
which makes 1t SO hard for an English
man to understand the scores Of
American women who yearly spend
months In travelling amroad while
their husbands remain at home.
But as warm as is the welcome fol
American women in England. 1t only
equals the GOODNESS OF the reception
given to the American man. The Eng
lish frankly dislike him and from theiI
| standpoint 1t Is not hard to understand
their reason
THE Englishman neither under
stands nor appreciates the American
man. They take him for just what he
appears to them. They see him coarse
boastful. loud in his talk. unrefined
and altogether the antithesis of theii
gentleman.
The American Mans Lack Of Polish
Mind you. that is the American
man as the Englishman knows him.
know him better. l know his rough
ness is only surface deep. that he IL
generous, but active and keen. That
he does lack the polish OF the English
gentleman must be admitted. and
and hundreds of other American WON
en- have often regretted that. at least
where polish counted for so much, he
could not display enough to bring Out
his good qualities.
THE EngliSh people are essential
ly a home people. though the English
women love society. During the so
cial season doubt II even the Ameri
can woman is as fond of her society
and is as busy in keeping her social
engagements as the English woman
English society Is more artistic
than American society. though now
there is a tendency. which is to be
deplored. to change the afternoon
musical tea to an afternoon at bridge
The English tea has newer been
thought complete without the presence
of three or four of the very bes,
artists that could be secured. 1t has
been this almost universal patronage
of art that has made London the great
center in which can be found the
most famous artists of the world"
