the Argentine metropolis. It is the
shopping center and the rendezvous ot

the pretty compliment and the acid

is carried on with that animation and
fine disregard for other-3' feelings that
ever distinguishes the Latin raconteur-

display an assortment of articles of
luxury unsurpassed in any great city
of the world and the prices at which
they are marked fall within the same
category.

But it is time to cast an eye over
some of the city's notable buildings.
The Government House, known as La
(Essa Ronda (The Red House) is es-
sentially the viceregal palace of
Colonial times despite the many ad-
ditions and alterations that have. been
made in it since the days when the

The Jockey Club
The JockeyClub possesses palatial
premises in Calla. Florida. wherein
reigns an atmosphere of wealth and
refinement and some luxurious ap-
pointments that take the breath away
are to be seen. This haven of Ar-
gentina's Four Hundred is one of the
most exclusive clubs on earth in which
are housed some pictures of luestlma-
ble wor‘th. some statuary that is both
beautiful and costly and a. magnificent
library that will put you right upon
any point or law or literature that
may occur to you to question.
The Law Courts must not be for-
gotten. This is one of the most strik-l ‘
ing bufldings in the city and on each
of its seven floors even-handed justice
is dispensed to the citizens and co»,
lossal bills of costs run up by the
lawyers whose equally palatial emcesj
