United States. and so cordial was his recep
uon here that his government made this event
the subject of a special communication to the
government of the United States.
former president of the United States
was also traveller into a foreign land al
though it was at the time favorite subject
OF argument whether he stepped on foreign
soil. In November, 1906, President Roosevelt
made his trip of inspection to Panama. He
was formally received by President Amador,
by officials of the government, and informally
he met the president of Panama several
occasions subsequently,
What might be called return visit Of
presidents was made shortly after this by
President Amador of Panama who came to
the United States in November, 1907 He
not in good health, however, and could not
receive the attention which would otherwise
have been given him. Whatever meeting took
place between him and President Roosevelt
was Of the simplest possible nature.
These occasions have not lacked in cere-
mony although in most cases it has been the
individual travelling in a quasi private capac-
ity rather than the representative of a nation
who the recipient of the honors bestowed
by nation upon a distinguished guest. AL
though the personality of a president has
always been a factor in his reception the cere-
mony has been doubly impressive when he has
been formally and by generalization invited
to visit a foreign country and different
people from his own. Such visits have been
rare even in America, and when they occur
are of more than passing interest. Especially
in Latin America, too, where the people take
delight in ceremony and where their artistic
instinct appreciates the value Of the event an
occasion of this kind becomes wonderful
agent in increasing friendship and mutual I'M
derstanding.
IL is pleasant therefore to record two
brilliant instances of the meeting of two great
presidents of American republics. arranged
an affair of state and carried out with all the
pageantry for which the scenes so we'll
fitted Reference is made to the visit paid to
the president of Brazil by the president of the
Argentine Republic in August, 1899. and to the
return visit paid to the president Of the Argen-

hetween the two nations Ii was the first
time in the history of South America that an
official visit was paid by one president or a
republic to another. A squadron of the navy
escorted President Roca to Rio Janelro,
where the Brazians were lavish in their hos
pitality The city was fete for days, and
the enthusiasm of the people was the best
evidence of the success or the hitherto I'M
tried event The Argentine Republic, not to
be outdone in display OF hospitality and
friendship, made even more elaborate prepa-
rations for the return visit Of President Cam
pos SALES the following year. Buenos Aires
was decorated in all the perfection of which
that beautiful city is capable. The people
demonstrated that their friendship and hos
pitalty was as sincere and spontaneous as
that of their neighbors, and the impressions
of good will left on each other, however much
it may be founded sentiment, have un-
doubtedly carried far-reaching consequences
in the hearts of the citizens of these two
republics.
Visits of courtesy of an informal nature
are becoming more and more frequent as
good-fellowship spreads from nation to nation.
An instance well in point is seen in the pro-
posed call at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, of Presi-
dent Montt of Chile who will pay his respects
to the president of Brazil when he returns
from Europe early in the coming year.
Meetings on the boundary between nations
are Of a somewhat different character and
cannot, from the very nature of the locality,
be surrounded with the elaborateness of cere-
mony attainable in nations capital. They
have a worldwide significance, however, since
they show that presidents can shake hands
across the border and that what they like to
do In brotherly affection the neighboring
people will do also. Another good result OF
such meeting is the direct benefit upon the
people of the region through which presi-
dent travels. for IT brings him into touch with
many persons and conditions he might not see
otherwise, and carries evidence to all alike
that he is their executive official as we'll as
that of the residents of the capital Of the
nation.
Consequences of great benefit, for In

KNEW THE WAYS OF WOMEN
Mean Trick of BalIantine That Prob
ably Made Much Trouble for His
Friend Blank.

Capt. J. F. Chase of Veteran City,
Fla, was in Washington last month
to register his forty-seventh airship
patent. Capt. Chase is best known
as the inventor of the hoop-skirt
Discussing the hoop-skirts remark
able success, Capt. Chase said to
reporter:
"The success was due to the
skirts strangeness. Women like
strange things. BY catering to wom-
en-, by studying their taste man can
twist them around his finger"
The veteran officer smiled.
"Ballantine," he said, came IN
late to a song recital in Palm Beach,
and there wasn't vacant seat in the
house.
"Ballantine noticed Mrs. Jerome
Blank. Mrs. Jerome Blank, he knew,
had a very handsome husband that
she kept strict watch oversize didn't
like him to associate with any of the
fair SEX
"Ballantine, edging near to Mrs.
Blank, who had an excellent seat, said
in loud voice to a friend:
"'Who was that uncommonly pretty
girl saw Jerome Blank talking to on
the pier?'
in about four seconds Mrs. Blank
was gone, and Ballantine was seated
comfortably in her chair.

presidency of Brazil in
1898. His early life had
been passed under the

to harmonic the ambitions of each for the

consequences and undoubtedly the sympathetic
expression of regard between these neighbors

months OF 1907.

the presidents of Costa Rica and of Honduras,
during two administrations, visited him. The
presidents of Costa RIGA and of Nicaragua
once met on the frontiers of the republics, and
so RAPIDLY are the means of communication be-

many similar meetings will be arranged in the
future for the benefit of this Central American
Confraternity.
With the growing demand for mutual un-

times they are of informal nature, the

being welcomed foreign guest simply.
