Lolita and the School Children.

A pretty anecdote is told of Lolita
during her soiourn in Paris. She went
one evening with her mother to the
opera, and between the acts they went
out to take look at the world-re-
nowned foyer. While admiring the
paintings and the gilded ornaments and
the fine proportions of the room, Lolita
became aware of the presence of o
group of schoolgirls, evidently Ameri-
cans, under the charge of governess,
who were regarding her with admiring
eyes and exchanging audible whispers
of "That is Lotta," us that Lotta?"
"How should like to speak to her.
"Oh, my, we must not" etc, etc. FL
nally Lolita smilingly advanced and
said: young ladies, am Lolita, and,
if you would like to make my acquaint-
ance, am sure should be charmed to
make yours. Instantly she was sur
rounded by her blooming, laughing, de-
lighted young countrywomen, and re-
ceived such an ovation as outweighed, I
am sure, in her opinion, q dozen of her
triumphs upon the stage.
