THK PHILLIPINE LADT.
The Kind ot Girls South Dakota Boys
Cincinnati Commercial Tribune:—
The native women of the Phillipines
are, jin a rule, excessively pretty and
engaging creatures, with supple fig
ures accentuated by the thinness of
their garments, beautiful, languish
ing eyes, shaded by long lushes, ami
luxuriant blue-black hair. This lust
is tlie cheif glory of the Phillipine
beauty.
It is long, rich, thick, made glossy
both by the cure bestowed on it and
its frequent anointing withcocoanut
oil. Often, too, it is cleaned and
washed with lemon juice and oil,
which has been made fragrant by in
fusions of oderiterous Howers. Some
of the women wear it hanging down
their hacks, entirely unadorned,
while others, especially the matrons,
build it up in a kind of coil, or knot,
held by a golden comb and orna
mented by pins, or very frequently
adorned by a bright, fragrant tiow-
They scorn bonnets or hats, but
often throw a handkerchief over
their heads, and, if the heat of the
sun is very intense, carry parasols
for protection.
Another admirable feature nearly
all the women possess are liquid and
languishing eyes, which are used
with telling effect, and their third
vanity is their very finely shaped
feet, tlmt never know a stocking, hut
which are thrust into slippers with
out libels, tastefully and elaborately
embroidered with gold silver thread.
The walk of the women is graceful,
but rather coquettish, and when the
clog is donned on wet days they
move with a very peculiar swing,
which is quit distinct front the Jap
anese totter.
Tlit' tliuml* nail of the right lmud
it* allowed to grow very long, which
assist* them in playing the guitar,
their favorite instrument.
The dress of the Tagal womencou
sists of a little skirt made of the
famous piim cloth, having wide,
short sleeves. This is worn loose,
quite unbound .to the figure, and
peaches the waist. Around it is girt
a petticoat, called sayn, made of
silk, either striped or checked, but
always pf gay colors. Sometimes it
is also of pina cloth; the quality and
Coloring frequently very beautiful
U id sometimes cheap and common.
About the most amusing tilingpo
litienl i» the present war is the effort;
of opposition papers to bombard the
adminstration for not conducting
the war right, and then dodge and
squirm on any result that is favor
able to the American side. When
ever an American commander makes
a successful attack they say heexceed
ed instructipns. And they continu
ally reitergte the statement that
Commodore Dewev cut the cable to
prevent his own government from
stopping him, notwithstanding the
established fact that Dewey was giv
en discretionary instructions, and
that he cut thecableafter he had won
his victory to prevent Spanish com
munication. The same thing is now
being said about Schley—that is, that
he bottled up Cervera because he paid
no attention to instructions. *Such
statements are boys’ play, a sort of
whimsical, childish pout that any
patriotic American ought to be
ashamed to indulge in. There isno
criticism about such talk. Of course
everything done in war may not lie
exactly right, so long as it is human
to err. Ami possibly open, fair criti
cism of public affairs and men is bene
ficial at any time. IJut fault finding
is simply a display of a peevish de
sire to be dissatisfied with every
body and every t hing. 11 would seem
to the average American as if some
persons opposed politically to the ad
rninistration are more interested in
political success than they are in the
nation's success. But the American
people are not Spaniards. They are
intelligent, and to them narrow par
tisanship is very distasteful.
The Queen of Spain continue* to
waste a lot of stationery and post
aye in appealing to “the powers” for
peace, when a postal card to I’ncle
Sam would quickly do the business.
* *
Will See.
The bang is said to l>e coming in,
style again. Perhaps this is to r
official instruction to naval com
manders to “bang away at anything
Spanish.”
Politics makes queer bedfellows,
and so does war. Uncle Sam and
John Bull are “neighboring back and
forth” somewhat differently from
what tney were a few years ago.
The Omaha Exposition is now in
full blast, and is attracting general
attention throughout the west. To
all persons contemplating a trio it
will lie a. matter of pleasure and in
struction to visit Omaha.
