If we compare the 'League of Youth' with Scribe's 'Bertrand et Raton, or with Sardou's 'Rabagas'; if we compare the 'Pillars of Society' with Dumas's 'Étrangère, or Augier's 'Effrontés' we cannot fail to find a striking similarity of structure.

She took a small sheet of notepaper and wrote all over it, as close as it could go, Scribe's famous phrase, which has become a proverb, "Prenez mon ours." A quarter of an hour later, Esther, overcome by remorse, wrote the following letter: "Pay no heed to the note you have just received from me; I had relapsed into the folly of my youth. Forgive, monsieur, a poor girl who ought to be your slave.

"Anyone who will believe them is blind to my gospel," said Jesus sadly. "Let them follow these blind leaders, if they insist they will come to the same bad end!" It soon became plain that Simon was right: the scribe's attack on Jesus was having a serious effect. The next day each of the twelve disciples went to a different place in Capernaum to preach the news of the Kingdom of God.

Put a few lines about her new engagement in your papers, and say something about her talent. Credit the management of the Gymnase with tack and discernment; will it do to say intelligence?" "Yes, say intelligence," said Merlin; "Frederic has something of Scribe's." "Oh! Well, then, the manager of the Gymnase is the most perspicacious and far-sighted of men of business," said Vernou.

Dan growled, when to reach the scribe's house he has to pass through lanes infested with the off-scourings of the pagan world: mummers, zanies, jugglers, dancers, whores from Babylon.

Now, when I was alone with Cousin Maud and gave her to understand that I loved the scribe's little daughter and wished for no dearer friend, she answered gravely; "Little maids can hold no conversation with any but those whose mothers meet in each other's houses. Take patience till I can speak to Sister Margaret."

"Thou wilt not betray me, Hotep; I shall not publish myself, and the other the only other who possesses my secret the Israelite, who was my model, is fidelity's self. I would trust her with my soul." "An Israelite! Thy nation's most active foe at this hour!" "She is no enemy to me, Hotep." Slowly the scribe's eyes traveled from the face of Athor to the face of Kenkenes.

Now he who had kept the door, a withered little man in a scribe's brown robe, peered at this visitor with his sharp eyes, then threw up his hands and staggered back, saying: "By the spear of Mars! it is Marcus himself, Marcus returned from the dead! Welcome, my lord, welcome."

He could steal the pen from behind a scribe's ear, as he paused to scratch his head and think over the spelling of a word. So the Crow felt sure that he could steal their feathers from the birds without any trouble. When the Peacock and his cousin had passed by, the Crow swooped down and carried off the two feathers which were to begin his collection.

"I have been looking for him all the evening," said a tall man, with an iron-gray beard. "He told me he was coming; but authors are capricious beings the slaves of the pen." "True; he lives by his pen others die by it," said Rachel bitterly. "By the way, has any one seen Scribe's new Vaudeville?" "I have," replied a bald little gentleman with a red and green ribbon in his button-hole.
