’Twill wish you well, the looking-glass,

And look you in the face to-night.

Robert Louis Stevenson.

AN AMERICAN GIRL

SHE’S had a Vassar education,

And points with pride to her degrees;

She’s studied household decoration:

She knows a dado from a frieze,

And tells Corots from Boldonis;

A Jacquemart etching, or a Haden,
