"She is on our side, and I honestly believe that she means getting that paper." "But she hasn't even the entrée to the house now," Weiss objected.

I saw much of him at the beginning of our acquaintance, but as his many amiable qualitie became better known, I found myself almost continually in his society, indeed as I have something to confess in the business, I could hardly choose a better opportunity than the present, did I not recollect that the good duc d'Aiguillon is waiting all this while for me to announce the entree of our party into the ante-room of Madame de Valentinois.
Thereafter for an hour the two of them drank tea uncomfortably as often as it was given them, and while the Honourable George undoubtedly made his impression, I could not but regret that he had so few conversational graces. How different, I reflected, had been my own entree into this county society!
But at the same time it seemed to him but fair to live, as long as it would last, on that part of his capital which his creditors would have given nothing for namely, his information; and he set to work to write. But, alas! he had but a 'small literary connection; and the entree of the initiated ring is not obtained in a day. . . . Besides, he would not write trash.

You know he has the entree of the Athenee, where two or three of his nephews, the sons of his eldest sister, Madame de Melcy, are students. You know the court of the Athenee is on the other side of the high wall bounding your walk, the allee defendue.
We shall grin and shout meaningless phrases over the fish, entrée and salad about life, death and the eternal verities; but we shall be sick to death of each other in ten minutes. Let's cut it out and go home!" You are obliged, however, to escort your middle-aged comrade downstairs and take your seat beside her with a flourish, as if you were playing Rudolph to her Flavia.
You've got some authority over your wife, I suppose? Use it. Stop this cackle about the letter: make her shut her mouth; I can't afford to lose the entrée to two houses like your father-in-law's and your own, just now. I can be discreet too it shall be mouth for mouth.
