⁂ _Returned tourists who would like to see themselves from a French
point of view, will be greatly diverted with this new travel-book. The
pictures are very droll, and give the exact notions of foreigners
concerning us. One of these notions is that all English ladies and
gentlemen breathe through their mouths instead of through their noses,
hence our mouths are always open, our teeth protrude, and we are
continually on the grin. Some of their caricatures of our weaknesses are
not wholly devoid of truth_.
