Our Little Siamese Cousin
CHAPTER I.
THE FIRST BIRTHDAY
IF you had seen Chin when he was born, you would have thought his skin
yellow enough to suit anybody.
But his mother wasn't satisfied, for the baby's nurse was told to rub
him with a queer sort of paste from top to toe. This paste was made
with saffron and oil, and had a pleasant odour. It made Chin's skin
yellower and darker than ever.
It did not seem to trouble him, however, for he closed his big brown
eyes and went to sleep before the nurse had finished her work.
After this important thing had been done, the tiny baby was laid in his
cradle and covered over. This does not appear very strange until you
learn that he was _entirely_ covered. Not even the flat little nose was
left so the boy could draw in a breath of fresh air.
