Now, however, we turn to the rise of two new European powers, Prussia and Russia, which began in the eighteenth century to play a prominent rôle in European affairs. We have had little occasion hitherto, in dealing with the history of western Europe, to speak of the Slavic peoples, to whom the Russians, Poles, Bohemians, and many other nations of eastern Europe belong.
The other girls soon became aware of Nancy's ambition. "Here comes your millionaire, Nancy," they would call to her whenever any man who looked the role approached her counter. It got to be a habit of men, who were hanging about while their women folk were shopping, to stroll over to the handkerchief counter and dawdle over the cambric squares.
"Tell them," said he, "that unless they are quiet I will make parchments of their skins." Cyrène caught his arm, but the answer had already gone. Dominique dropped the rôle of butler for his old ones of soldier. He saluted, and marched down to deliver the message.

To America must be given the credit of having produced the model husband, a new species, as it were, of the genus homo. In no rôle does a compatriot appear to such advantage as in that of Benedict. As a boy he is often too advanced for his years or his information; in youth he is conspicuous neither for his culture nor his unselfishness.
"I memorize very easily; it only takes a few weeks to learn an operatic rôle. I spent three weeks on Coq d'Or, and that is a difficult part, so many half tones and accidentals.
