Mr. Hall Culne says of his stay In the United States: "Many of my Impres sions of America, by the way, toppled down like a child's house of curds when I found myself actually in the country und among the people. A delightful na tion to Btudy Is America fresh and frank and full of originality, Of course, wo nil know and have always known, for the Inst century, at least, that Americans are clever; but we can't realize until we go among them and see them in their homes how kindly, how young: of heart, they are as In dividuals." ' ; . I, , - Of American woman tn general he deems "It Is only natural they should have become what they are superior. intellectually, or, a, any rate, suier- i liclally n). to the men. That Is. ot course, as u class. I here are ulways so many exci-i tions to every rule. Put the 1 thing has came aoout as a consequence of man's putting woman American man, American woman on a pedestal. anil worshiping her. He has stayed be low the pedestal und w nUed lor her, not having time, if he a? ttv. ordinary man of business, to cuptvate his mind ami manner while- he so worked. Hut she has had lenty of time, und she has made the hesi use of it. In our country I consider thut the reverse Is the truth. The average Englishman Is superior to the average Englishwoman in intelligence anil education. That is because he Is likely to think of him self, and of h's sons, before he thinks of his wife and daughters. And English women have conscii;r.tiously upheld him In his attitude toward them, until comparatively lately, nt any rate. In America, on the contrary. I fancy that women have known their own" value, and set tt rather high, for a number ot years a couple of gem-rations, ut least." In personal upiH-urant-e Mr. Cairn- llnds our women "prettier, more attractive, more bewitching, thun Eng lish women, but not so regularly beau tiful. The straight, almost (ireek nose, and the ineffably lovely ami haughty upM-r lip of the niot.t perfect type of English girl I have not seen equaled 111 America I must say." roxsoL.vnoN roil t. c. platt.
