Page 22 MEMOIRS V. S. Grant The Sleeping Babe a MASS of tousled, golden curls in bright relief against the snowy pillow; a pair of baby eyes, closed in sound slumber, the dark lashes sweeping the rosy cheeks; a pair of baby lips, rose-red, and parted slightly, as though pausing in the delights of the bottle of milk nestled in the relaxed arms; two little hands, carelessly resting on the pillow and sheet, pausing in their eternal childish business; a little playsuit, rompers of bright pink and waist of snowy white, symbolic of golden play-days; a pair of chubby little legs, dimpled and sturdy, quiet at last from the joyous, never-tiring action of babyhood; two little cherub feet, clad in booties of bright pink; this is the sleeping babe, healthy and cheerful, in one of its pauses in the gleeful play of happy babyhood. -Josephine Oi-sson.
