A CLOSE OBSERVER
Mrs. Alice Meynell has written a book about children, and whenever any of the children of her friends do anything odd or amusing an account of the matter is straightway sent to her. An American woman who met Mrs. Meynell in London, related the other day an incident that the Englishwoman had told in her hearing. A little girl sat in a parlor with a oat. A maid, en- ' terirag, said : ' Look at Kitty washing her face.' ' Oh, no,' said the little, girl ; ' she isn't washing her face. She is washing her fejet and wiping them on her face.'
