His brother-in-law, M. Pelletier, then Econome of the Lycee at Vendome, was in the thick of the strife, and his post was not unattended with danger though the Lycee had become an International Ambulance.
But at the Lycee he was such a diligent and intelligent pupil!" "You lost your husband when your son was ten years old, did you not?" said Abbe Rose. At this she blushed again, thinking that her husband's story was known to the two priests. "Yes, my poor husband never had any luck," she said. "His difficulties embittered and excited his mind, and he died in prison.
With a Preface by JULES LEMAITRE, of the French academy, Born in Amiens, September 2, 1852, Paul Bourget was a pupil at the Lycee Louis le Grand, and then followed a course at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes, intending to devote himself to Greek philology. He, however, soon gave up linguistics for poetry, literary criticism, and fiction.
So she never desisted from her importunity until she was permitted to become a pupil of Professor Coccherani, vocal instructor at the Lycée. At this time she had committed to memory more than a dozen grand opera rôles, and at the end of six months the professor confessed that he could do nothing more for her voice; that she was ready for a career.
I mean to say that you should call to mind the secret and profound instruction which the pupils have acquired de natura rerum, of the nature of things.

Whilst he was struggling with his doubts, bound by his priestly vows, she had grown up at the Lycee Fenelon, where her father had placed her as soon as her mother died; and there, far removed from all practice of religion, she had gradually reached total forgetfulness of her early religious views.
At the same time I'm well pleased to know what I do oh! not from any spirit of pedantry but simply because I think it has all done me good, and given me some moral as well as physical health." It delighted her to recall the days she had spent at the Lycee Fenelon, which of the five State colleges for girls opened in Paris was the only one counting a large number of pupils.
This artist died in Paris twenty-five years ago, but there is little as yet to be told of his life history. He was educated in Paris at the Lycee Charlemagne, having gone there from Strasburg, where he was born. He was a painter of fantastic and grotesque subjects, and as far as we know, he began his career when a boy.
