Landon Lisa
Secure in the flawless armor of her innate
purity, the American girl touches pitch and
is not defiled. Her large eyed gaz' compre
hends oil thiugs unabashed. Hite fears noth
ing and shrinks from nothing. In much that
au English girl would describe as modesty,
she detects a lack of sincerity and frankness;
much that an English matron would commend
aa delicacy, and H-lyliko feeling, she spurns aa
a want of proper spirit and independence. It
is difficult to hit on any subject of conversation,
even among those that are ordinarily re
served for the club or smoking-room, which
so far from discountenancing or discouraging,
she is not able to approach independently by
the light of her own reading or experience.
And about all she *ays or does there is a large
news, a buoyancy, a freedom from restraint,
that freshens and exhilarates like a breeze
from the sea. Men who, as a rule can’t “gel
on" in ladies' society, are attracted to her and
drawn ont by her. Before she has long lieen
kdtnittod into the London drawing-room, even
of the most exclusive order, site is certain to
be the centre of an admiring and attentive
group, comprising monos many different
tj-pe*.
