I still continued my coat room duties, as my wife managed the laundry work. Our laundry business increased so rapidly I deemed it best to change our quarters from Second street to 216 Grand avenue, which seemed better suited for our purpose. Here the business continued to grow until it reached proportions of which we had little idea when we began it.
"Why?" enquired the girl, looking at him with surprised curiosity. "Oh! because because you don't need one; it's so beautiful and sunny, you know." In spite of what he could do Mr. Martin's eyes kept wandering to her hair. "Oh, well!" cried Moira, in increasing surprise at this strange young man, "the sun won't hurt me, so come, let us go." Together they went down the avenue of rugged firs.
I thank you, but I cannot wait to be presented to his Majesty, for I, too, leave Mauravania to-night, and, like Madame yonder, return to other and more promising fields," said Cleek, an hour later, as he stood on the terrace of the Villa Irma and watched the slow progress down the moonlit avenue of the carriage which was bearing Madame Tcharnovetski and her effects to the railway station.
A very short ride brought him to the semi-circular avenue leading to the house. It was now quite dark; but the front of the house was lighted up, holding forth, as it were, its hands in welcome. As he rode up and dismounted a servant took his horse. And as he walked up the front steps Mr.

I fear I was the one who most often accepted his hospitality, and wonderful visits they were, certainly to me, and I think to Richard as well. The great event was our Saturday-night dinner, when we always went to a little restaurant on Sixth Avenue.
The three conspirators dined together heartily in the Avenue de Clichy soup, fish, entree, sweet and cheese, washed down by a bottle of claret and a pint of burgundy, coffee to follow, with a glass of chartreuse for Madame. To the waiter the party seemed in the best of spirits. Dinner ended, the two men returned to Chatou by the 7.35 train, leaving Gabrielle to follow an hour later with Aubert.

On either side were great buildings wondrously wrought.
