BY sELENE ARMSTRONG HARMON

Madame Riano, wife of Senior Don
Juan Riano, chamberlain to His Males
ty the King of Spain, and ambassador
to America, is one of the most &C
complished hostesseS now presiding
over a foreign legation a. Washing
ton. She is an American, having
been before her marriage Alice
Ward of Washington and New York
With the frankness, and the demo-
cratic manner of the American woman,
Madame Ri,.no combines a certain
old-world culture, and the perfect poise
that comes only with years of social
four times. AS the guest there of
her husbands family, she had init
mate glimpses of court life, and came
to know the young king and queen.
Autographed photographs of their
majesties are among many interesting
pictures of notable people that are to
be seen at the Spanish embassy in
Washington.
Madame Riano has also lived in
Paris. She speaks French as fluent
ly as she speaks Spani3h. And when
her husband was appointed minister
to Norway and Denmark, teacher
of Danish was engaged for the Span
ish embassy at Copenhagen almost be-
fore a cook was thought of.

sessing oneself of the key, not only to
the present life and customs of PEG
pie, but often to the history and
literature of their past"
Few American women are accom-
plished linguists. Madame Riano
speaks, besides her native language
four otkers-French, German, Danish
and Spanish. She also possesses an
other accomplishment rarcr still among
American women. She is an expert
lace maker.
The Spanish embassy at the capt.
tai is well adapted TO entertaining on
large scale. Filled with rare and
exquisite objects, it is one of the
most interesting homes in Washington.
A notable feature of its big drawing
room is a number of remarkable Chi.
nese antique pictures-scenes not
painted. but wrought with jade and
ivory and gold on backgrounds of blue
satin.
1t is in the boudoir of Madame
Riano, however, that the taste of the
of the Spanish embassy
finds its fullest and freest expression.
Rare old engraving, fine draperies,
hanpiOrS and eTnbroidariaS add IN fha
charm OF this apartment.
