You'll take that money, and you'll come to me as soon as you can, and God bless you, my dear!" And again Margaret was kissed. Altogether, it was a very osculatory morning for Miss Hugonin.

The sultan, who had always seen her dressed very meanly, not to say poorly, was surprised to find her as richly and magnificently attired as the princess his daughter.
