is taken from an interview with the
countess:

full women lake a study of maintain
ing a severe cast of countenance? In
stead of training their lips to smile,
which would make their faces amiable
as we'll as beautiful, they train them
selves to a set frown which makes
them almost ugly.
about the American man SO very
much has been said that there really
remains little to say about him. The
real American man is personality
full of character and strength. and
when not influenced by European SUI
perficiality of refinement is the ideal
man"
American men seem to have made a
great "hit" with the countess and may
she remain in blissful ignorance.
