Mr.. Stallo is the son of Judge j. d,
Stallo, minister to Italy under Presi7
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 mar
rage
In London the two pretty Stallo,
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 none of this for her young guests.
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
Smuch to say to a 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 Is
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 il she is like me she would love
both.
"The American women are beauti-
full, vivacious, daring and most enter
tanning. They are excellent company
and they are distinctive. The Eng
lsh women are quiet, reserved, prob
ably not quite as pretty, but no less
attractive, steadfast friends and are
themselves distinctive.
1.-The average American girl is blase
almost before the English girl is ready
to leave school. The English girl never
leaves her governess and home before
she is IS, while at the same age the
American girl has seen much of the
world.
yet the American girl retains her
vivacity and her interest in every
thing and it is that one quality, l
think, above all others that makes her
so dear to the English woman. 1t Is
that quality that certainly wins for
her the admiration Of the Englishman,
though at the same time 1t scares
away his love.
1.-The Englishman admires the Amer
lean girl. He likes to talk to her, to
entertain her; but to marry her-why,
that is 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
J 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 SC
! from the day of her birth. The Eng
lishman has been brought up to be-
lieye 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 like posi-
ton would likely point to chair with
the curt command, Sit there; I'll be
back in a moment and stalk out OF
} the room. l have seen that happen
time after time in the hotels OF Lon
r don, and 1t best illustrates the reason
of failure of some supposedly happy
marriages.
at the same time, Englishmen mar
ried to English women make good hus
l 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 she is always striving. They
( never think of leaving their husbands
l to travel alone. 1t is that reason
{. which makes it 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, it only

, standpoint it is not hard to understand

The Englishman neither under
