were playing with a spaniel in the
palace at Westminster. The
romper-clad child of today never
would have guessed from their
long, heavy, silk petticoats that
two of them were boys.
The littlest one wore a lace cap,

3-year-old sister was a miniature
court lady. The baby's chubby
hand, outstretched from the
pulled sleeve of his rich, blue silk
gown, was just about to catch the
spaniePs ear when their play was
interrupted.
