The South Americans have laid by their lassos, the Germans are putting the finishing teaches on their masks of friendship, and the Bolsheviki have managed to run off an extra billion or so of rubles to buy themselves hair-cuts. The rest of the world makes its silent preparations as well; and it is announced that many a distinguished wardrobe will be pressed into service.

"Go to your room!" shouted at one is the great goal...
...baby's with fascinating creases at the wrists, and long, tapering fingers. Her limbs eyes were hazel, and they were very brilliant when she was merry or excited. Her expansive face had no lines in it, and her mouth was perfection of curves, the teeth white and even. Her hair was red-brown, curling in rich profusion, scented with the hinano-flower, adorning her charmingly posed head in careless grace...
