Maupertuis, however, was very proud of his discovery, which, he considered, embodied one of the principal reasons for believing in the existence of God; and he was therefore exceedingly angry when, shortly after Voltaire's arrival in Berlin, a Swiss mathematician, Koenig, published a polite memoir attacking both its accuracy and its originality, and quoted in support of his contention an unpublished letter by Leibnitz, in which the law was more exactly expressed.
I , from the origins of the state to the death of the Great Elector, an able French presentation. There is an admirable old German biography of Frederick the Great's father, with copious extracts from the sources, by F. C. Forster, Friedrich Wilhelm I Koenig von Preussen, 3 vols.
But the only doctor we really have much to do with is the house surgeon, a young fellow who has just finished his student's course. He must have sung his Te Deum after the operation, for he got gloriously drunk and wanted to inject morphia in a patient recovering from trouble of the kidney. It was an old hippopotamus of a German musician named Koenig, and he was in a frantic terror.
The Medical Board of the American Hospital consists of Doctor Robert Turner, chairman; Doctor Magnier, who is well known as the founder of the hospital; Doctor Debuchet, Doctor Gros, Doctor Koenig and Doctor Whitman.

Two monts ago I haf ask for you at de hospital, and haf write to de matron, but you vere gone. Since den I haf look for you all over London. Vhere do you lif?"
It was a purpose. What, then, did Uncle Charlie mean by calling Professor Koenig a classic? "Just what does it mean, exactly classic?" persisted Emmy Lou. "That which we are apt to put on the shelf," said Uncle Charlie. Oh Emmy Lou had thought he was talking about Professor Koenig; he meant the text-books she understood now, of course.
Glory was seeing it all for the first time, and Koenig was describing and explaining everything in broken whispers. A band was playing in the well of the circular staircase, and a second footman stood in an alcove behind an outwork of hats and overcoats. The first footman reappeared. Were the artistes ready to go to the drawing-room? They followed him upstairs.
