I was surprised at this sudden coolness, but looked upon it as infra dig, "pour un jeune homme de bonne maison" to curry favour with a mere Crown student of an Operoff, and so left him severely alone though I confess that his aloofness hurt my feelings.
The Rislers had bought a country house at Asnieres, formerly the property of an actress, and had set up a sumptuous establishment there. They had horses and carriages, and led a luxurious, gay life. The thing that especially disturbed honest Sigismond was the self restraint of Fromont jeune.
Though in the extremity of a mortal sickness, they left her lying in the snow till the wigwam was made, without a word, on her part, of remonstrance or complaint. Le Jeune, to the great ire of her husband, sometimes spent the interval in trying to convert her; but she proved intractable, and soon died unbaptized.
In taunting him with what he might have had, however, she let the identity of the newsbringer leak out. De la Tour then warned her passionately against le jeune aventurier Americain, and almost frightened the girl into disbelieving the whole story.
The Patriarch Balls, of which the first were given in the winters of 1872 and 1873, were growing too large and were being monopolized by the married women. The new association was for the jeune fille, and was to be more limited and intimate. Its dances were held at Dodworth's, later Delmonico's, and in the foyer of the Metropolitan Opera House. The arbiter paid the price of his greatness.
To live in the shadow of his friend, become at once his brother-in-law and his ideal he did not dream of any other solution of his own destiny.

"St John was only twenty-nine, sir." "'Jeune encore, as the French say. Is he a person of low stature, phlegmatic, and plain. A person whose goodness consists rather in his guiltlessness of vice, than in his prowess in virtue." "He is untiringly active. Great and exalted deeds are what he lives to perform." "But his brain? That is probably rather soft?
Where is your 'jeune heros, 'l'homme du peuple? I do not see him. Does he wear clouted shoes and woollen stockings? Has he a broad face and turned-up nose, like your 'paysans Anglais'?" "Judge for yourself, my lady he stands at your elbow. Mr. Halifax, let me present you to Lady Caroline Brithwood."
"Le jeune homme n'entends pas, madame," observed Mimi. "Que c'est ennuyant. Monsieur," said Madame Fontanges, pointing to herself, "moi, Madame de Fontanges: vous?" pointing to him. "Newton Forster." "Nu-tong Fasta ah, c'est bon; cela commence," said the lady. "Allons, mes enfans, répétez-lui tous vos noms." "Moi Mimi," said the girl bearing that name, going up to Newton, and pointing to herself.
I shall be disgraced all over Russia. . . ." Podzharov thought a little, smoked, and to calm himself went out into the street. "I ought to talk to this bully, ram into his stupid noddle that he is a blockhead and a fool, and that I am not in the least afraid of him. . . ." The jeune premier stopped before Zybaev's house and looked at the windows.
