BEAUTIES or TIE SOUTH

: The world IL lust awakening to the fact that
South American women are beautiful and fasci.
mating and that the palm for charm and loyeli
ness is fast being wrested from their North
American Sisters. Perhaps the most beautiful OF.
all these new beauties come from Argentina the
land Of surprises and wonders, and they seem to
have found what Ponce de Leon sought further
north-the fountain of youth.
The Argentine women dress better, look bet
ter and have finer manners than any other WON.
In the world. They are enchanting creatures
and even now Europe is learning of their great
charm and beauty. They fond of home life
and make ideal mothers. although they are not
domestic to sordid degree They as fond
of society as the women of the United States
only they absolutely without the faintest
trace of snobbishness, which is probably due to
their breeding. They are wonderfully well in.
formed and well bred women, and strangely
enough their social obligations are never such
as to interfere with their home life
They are a pleasure-loving people fond of mu.
sic, drama and entertainment The latest styles
are brought over from Paris which is responsI.
BILE for the introduction of the first artists Of
Europe, who are frequently heard in Buenos
Ayres before they come to the United States
The people Of Argentina make less of their three
weeks sail to France than we do of our ono
weeks sail They are very fond of Paris, and
adopt more customs and manners from the
French than from Americans or English.
The South American woman is becoming a
great factor abroad She has attracted the at
tention of shopkeepers, for she is as rich as the
North American and even more lavish with her
money and grace. for she has no duty to nav on
her purchases and spends her millions with an
open hand She loves rich and beautiful things.
and wears her clothes well with a great deal NJ
dash and splendor, so that the great modistes
and milliners have been turned away from the
North American beauty and her scrimping pur.
chases because of her duties and pouring all
their amiability upon the bellies from Argentina
and Brazil, and even Chile For oh. thew are
rich! And they are growing richer with their
mines and vast herds of cattle and sheep and
their rubber and coffee plantations, their new
railroads and real estate deals, and all sorts OF
other enterprises that make for sudden and vast
wealth in new countries.
The rich South American woman makes Paris
her playground. One rarely finds her in London
She does not like England or the English, but
Paris and the French people just suit her as she.
like them, is of the Latin race, with all the
warmth and gayety of such people.
