Our neighbours are trembling for the fate of the entente cordiale, which would speedily vanish with vanishing England; but they have been assured by some of their savants that the rate of erosion is only one kilometre in a thousand years, and that the danger of total extinction is somewhat remote. Professor Stanislas Meunier, however, declares that our "panic" is based on scientific facts.
I shall therefore advise them to give the preference to the old established house of Meunier, which has existed ever since 1800, now conducted by Messrs.
Grandier's adversaries soon became conscious of the storm which was gathering above their heads, and feeling that the struggle between themselves and this man would be one of life or death, Mignon, Barot, Meunier, Duthibaut, and Menuau met Trinquant at the village of Pindadane, in a house belonging to the latter, in order to consult about the dangers which threatened them.
We know that the sun will rise to-morrow and that for a long time to come it will rise every morning amid the dense clouds or in light mists." Adolphe Meunier entered discreetly on tiptoe. The doctor grasped his hand warmly. "Good day, Monsieur Meunier. We can see next month's new moon.
He was assailed in low blackguardism in the journals: he was assailed with envenomed eloquence, by such men as Lamartine, at the banquets; and his path was dogged, with dagger and pistol, by such brutal wretches as Fieschi, Boirier Meunier, Alibaud, and many others.

He was associated with Daubigny, painter and etcher, and with Courbet, Flameng, and Thérond. He admired Calmatta and his school Bal, Franck, Biot, Meunier, Flameng.
Proctor regarded it as an effect of diffraction; Stanislas Meunier, of oblique reflection from overlying mist-banks; Flammarion considers it possible that companion-canals might, under special circumstances, be evoked by refraction as a kind of mirage. But none of these speculations are really admissible, when all the facts are taken into account.
What secret was there between Bertha and this woman? I turned my eyes from her with a horrible dread lest my insight should return, and I should be obliged to see what had been breeding about two unloving women's hearts. I felt that Bertha had been watching for the moment of death as the sealing of her secret: I thanked Heaven it could remain sealed for me. Meunier said quietly, "She is gone."
"I trust that age doth not wither nor custom stale my infinite variety," said he, and I recognised in his voice the joy and pride which the artist takes in his own creation. "It really is rather like me, is it not?" "I should be prepared to swear that it was you."
