You were a student, weren't you? Of what in the other devil's name? Paysayenn. P. C. N., you know: physiques, chimiques et naturelles. Aha. Eating your groatsworth of mou en civet, fleshpots of Egypt, elbowed by belching cabmen. Just say in the most natural tone: when I was in Paris; boul' Mich', I used to.
"Look, they are giving Louise day after tomorrow at the Opera Comique.... Won't you come; with me?" "No, I should cry too much." "I'll cry too." "But it's not..." "Cest l'armistice," interrupted Andrews. They both laughed! "All right! Meet me at the cafe at the end of the Boul' Mich' at a quarter past seven.... But you probably won't come." "I swear I will," cried Andrews eagerly. "We'll see!"
"In the Quartier on the Boul' Mich' at Bulliers " She stopped, falling into a dream; then, suddenly, from the farthest corner of the room, came the sound of a loud kiss, and the boy and girl at the distant table began to sing in unison a ribald song, but instinct with the zest of life. Lize started, as though she had been struck.
Presently in come two well dressed House Helps, one with a splendid gilt lamp, a real London touch, and another with a tea tray, with a large solid silver coffee pot, and tea pot, and a cream jug, and sugar boul, of the same genuine metal, and a most an elegant sett of real gilt china.
"Great bunch of weeds," he said presently, without looking up, and still painting, drawing the while at a quaint pipe about an inch long. "O, you are not the Boul' Miche, after all," I exclaimed in disappointment. "Aren't I, though?" he said at last, looking up in interested surprise. "Ever at ?" mentioning the name of a well-known cafe, one of the many rally-points of the Quartier.
Restaurants, cafés, studios, the Boul' Miche, and this little garret do they form a wholesome environment? Oh, no, no I am not a renegade. I am a Bohemian; I shall always be; it is bred in the bone. But my daughter ought she not to have the opportunity, at least, of being different, of being like other girls? You see, I had my father; she will have only me.
The chill of a November afternoon cut its way through the doors of the Café La Source in the Boul' Mich' and made shiver the groups of young medical students who were reading or playing dominos. Ambroise Nettier, older, thinner, paler, waited carefully on his patrons.
Then he hooked his arm in Peter's and the two went forth to join the joyous hordes surging up the Boul' Miche, and to dine in their favorite restaurant, where the waiters were one's good friends, and Madame the proprietress addressed her Bohemians as "mes enfants." Having dined, one joined one's brother workers who waged the battle of Art with jaws and gestures.
Presently they recrossed the Seine, and the cab, dodging the tram car rails, proceeded at a smart pace up the "Boul' Mich'," which is the familiar diminutive bestowed by the students upon that broad avenue which traverses the very heart of their beloved Quartier Latin.
He sat on his own folding stool, which he had brought along from his winter studio hard by in the old Boul' Miche'. He had arrived early that morning, all the way from Como, to find a thunderbolt driven in at his feet. Across his knees fluttered an open newspaper, the Paris edition of the New York Herald.
