And Mamma Cat found out that Fido was a very good friend, too. She grew to trust him so much she would even let him help wash the kittens' faces. All the dolls were tucked snugly in their little doll-beds for the night and the large house was very still.

"And the eyes are not unlike," I added, meaning well. "I'm sorry you think so," said Rosalind, evidently piqued. "Well, never mind," I tried to make peace, "she hasn't your hands," I knew that women cared more about their hands than their faces. "How do you know?" she retorted; "you cannot see through her gloves." "Would any gloves disguise your hands?" I persisted.
