But even George Hamon admits that Paul Martel was an unusually good-looking fellow, with very attractive manners when he chose, and a knowledge of the world and its ways, and of men and women, beyond the ordinary, and he won Rachel Carré's heart against her head and in the teeth of her father's opposition. Perhaps if her mother had been alive things might have been different.

Then Carre's haggard face breaks into a smile, and he exclaims: "Finished already? Put some more ether on, make it sting a bit at least." Carre knows that the courage of which there was no need to-day will not, perhaps, be available to-morrow.

It was doubtless that the girl's was fresh and strong and had a future in it, while poor Madame Carré's was worn and weary and had only a past. The old woman said something, half in jest, half in real resentment, about the brutality of youth while Miriam went to a mirror and quickly took off her hat, patting and arranging her hair as a preliminary to making herself heard.

"He steadies me, mother." "Oh I wish you'd take me, Peter," Biddy broke out wistfully to her cousin. "To spend an hour with an old French actress? Do you want to go upon the stage?" the young man asked. "No, but I want to see something to know something." "Madame Carré's wonderful in her way, but she's hardly company for a little English girl."

Gounod's influence acted upon him like a charm, and in 'Mignon' he produced a work which, if not strictly original, has an element of personality too distinctive to be ignored. If we can dismiss all thoughts of Goethe and his 'Wilhelm Meister' from our minds, it will be possible to pronounce MM. Barbier and Carré's libretto a creditable piece of work.

They walk in pairs, bolt upright, looking neither right nor left, talking little as they hurry along toward the old Louvre, and are soon swallowed out of sight in the gathering mist, out of which the gaslights glimmer faintly. They are all on their way to dine on the right bank. I am going to dine on the left bank, at Carre's, where one sees many odd customers. Farewell, river!

And he added: "I saw his slough. Lord! he is bad." Lerondeau has a good memory for medical terms. Yes, he saw Carre's slough. He himself has the like on his posterior and on his heel; but the tear that trembles in the corner of his eye is certainly for Carre. And then, he knows, he feels that HIS wounds are going to heal. But it is bad for Marie to hear another complaining before his own turn.

The talent, the desire, the energy are an instinct; but by the time these things become a performance they're an instinct put in its place." "Madame Carré's very philosophic. I shall never be like her." "Of course you won't you'll be original. But you'll have your own ideas." "I daresay I shall have a good many of yours" and she smiled at him across the table.

Johnson to the chapel , founded by Lord Chief Baron Smith, for the Service of the Church of England. The Reverend Mr. Carre, the senior clergyman, preached from these words, 'Because the Lord reigneth, let the earth be glad . I was sorry to think Mr. Johnson did not attend to the sermon, Mr. Carre's low voice not being strong enough to reach his hearing. A selection of Mr.

"How bad you make me seem to myself and if I were you how much better I should say it!" was Madame Carré's first criticism. Miriam allowed her, however, little time to develop it, for she broke out, at the shortest intervals, with the several other specimens of verse to which the old actress had handed her the key.
