We compared it with the line on the night of September 29, when the battle practically ended, running from the outskirts of Auderive in the west to behind Cernay in the east, and took what comfort we could in the 25 kilometres of advance, and three hilltops gained. It looked but a few steps on the map, but it was a few steps nearer the frontier.
"I am not easily enticed, as you know," said Jeanne, in a firm voice, trying to smile. Micheline and Madame Desvarennes had drawn near. "Come, Cayrol," said Serge, in a tone of command; "I am happy to-day; perhaps I may succeed in your behalf as I have done in my own. Let me plead your cause with Mademoiselle de Cernay?" "With all my heart.
"You have done me the honor to call me, Mademoiselle," said he, remaining on the threshold of the drawing-room. "Am I fortunate enough at length to have found favor in your eyes?" "Here is my hand," said Mademoiselle de Cernay, simply tendering him her white taper fingers, which he covered with kisses. Madame Desvarennes had come in behind the banker. She uttered a joyous exclamation.
The young girl's, grief, which he knew to be sincere, troubled him more than he wished to show. He had loved Mademoiselle de Cernay, and he loved her still. But he felt that a sign of weakness on his part would place him at Jeanne's mercy, and that an avowal from his lips at this grave moment meant a breaking-off of his marriage with Micheline.
The dear child will certainly have millions enough to marry easily. And her adopted sister, the stately Mademoiselle Jeanne, what has become of her?" "Ah! as to Mademoiselle de Cernay, that is another affair," cried Marechal.
The Prussian Guards coming up from Villers Cernay about 10 A.M. planted their formidable batteries so as to sweep the Bois de Garenne and the ground about the Calvaire d'Illy from the eastward; and about that time the guns of the 5th and 11th German corps, that had early crossed the Meuse below Sedan, were brought to bear on the west front of that part of the French position.

"From childhood I have always read it as easily as a book," said Pierre, with tremulous voice, turning toward the amazed Micheline. Mademoiselle de Cernay tossed her head. "Who knows? Perhaps her disposition has changed during your absence;" and nodding pleasantly, she went toward the house.
In a moment our guests will be gone I beg of you, come with me!" Jeanne smiled. "But you see, dear, I am in evening dress." "The night of our marriage I brought you away from Cernay like that. Wrap yourself up in your furs, and come! Give me this proof of affection. I deserve it. I am not a bad man and I love you so!" Jeanne frowned. This pressing vexed her. "This is childish," she said.
