In a conversation about books which
tho author or ;'The Long Day" had
with two of her workmates at a box
factory, sho spoke enthusiastically
of "Llttlo Women," nnd told them how

sho meant to rend It again somo day.
"Llttlo Women" was unknown to
them, but their curiosity was roused
over the unhcatd-of thing of any-i
body over wanting to read a '
book 111010 than once, and they!
pressed her to repeat tho story for
them. This sho did with gtcat accu
racy of statement, and with genuine
pleasure to herseir at being given nn
opportunity to Introduce anybody to
Meg nnd Jo and all tho rest of that
delightful March family.
When she finished, Phoebe stopped
work and Mrs. Smith looked up from
her label-pasting, saying: "Why, that's
