site her dowager duchess. This
wicked and cruel old dowager put her
eye glass up to her eye and said:
"'You American girls have such
poor compilations, haven't you? You
look so pasty beside our rose-ieaf Eng
llsh maids. what 10 our noblemen
find so attractive in your yellow
faces?'
"Tne American countess, blinded by
no Illusion, laughed coldly.
"'You see. Duchess she said. It's
not our yellow faces that attract your
noblemcn; it's our greenbacks.
