Illustrating the cosmopolitanism Of
Russian character. which Professor
Phelps says is accountable, in a
measure. for the international effect
and influence of Russian novels.
Stevenson, writing from Mentone to
his mother. January. 1874, said:
I'VE have two little Russian girls,
with the youngest Of whom. a little
polyglot button Of a three-year.old, I
had the most laughable scene at

thing in Italian which made everybody
laugh very much after some
examination. she announced emphat.

that was madchen. "a. This
hasty conclusion as to my sex she was
led afterward to revise but
her opinion was announced
in a language quite unknown to me,
and probably Russian. To complete
the scroll of her accomplishments
she said good-by TO me in very
commendable English" Three days
later. Stevenson added. 1.-THE little

Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike

coax the liver into activity by gentle

Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are tonic
