genuine fun and real wit of th present

It is the story of the two daughter
of Count Sellm Malagaakl, governor
general of Morovenla Kalora and Jene

The stories were all originally writ

are all humorous and entertaining, but
ar spiced with aa under layer of truth
that sometimes amounts to satire.
Ther is, however, a genial spirit per

quaint sort which makes them readaLle. i
