Tell me, have you got the money for the wood you sold to M. Collot a year ago?" "No," said Alain, falteringly. "Good heavens! none of it?" "Only the deposit of ten per cent., which of course I spent, for it formed the greater part of my income. What of Collot? Is he really unsafe?" "He is ruined, and has fled the country. His flight was the talk of the Bourse this morning.
At the Bourse, among bankers, wherever he goes, even at the usurers, he will find money because he can give security. Well, Monsieur, is not that a great gulf to bridge over in our social system? But that is only one aspect of our work. We insure debtors by another scheme of policies and premiums.
She spoke the best French at her command, but it was not understood. The apothecary could only shake his head. "La bourse" she repeated, softly smiling, but with a scintillation of the eyes in resentment of his scrutiny. "La bourse" she reiterated. "Purse?" "Oui, Miché." "You are sent for it?" "Oui, Miché."
Pillerault left them to go to the Bourse, which in those days was held in a provisional wooden building of a circular shape, and was entered from the Rue Faydeau.

An effective rally was made, as usual, at the Bourse, whither a large detachment of the invaders had forced their way. Inhabitants of all classes and conditions, noble and simple, Catholic and Protestant, gave each other the hand, and swore to die at each other's side in defence of the city against the treacherous strangers. The gathering was rapid and enthusiastic.

The cigars are giving out again, and the rush has slackened, and he detaches the People's Champion from the line and draws him to the inner room. "Brush Bascom's conducting a bourse on the second floor and is running the price up right along," cried the honest and indignant Mr. Tooting. He's stringin' Adam Hunt all right.
All will come right, I dare say; but if it does not come right, what would Louvier do?" "Louvier do!" answered Finisterre, reflectively. "Well do you ask my opinion and advice?" "Earnestly, I ask." "Honestly, then, I answer. I am a little on the Bourse myself most Parisians are.
