"I consider that I stand committed to everything." The arm may have slightly emphasized this. "No that's impossible. It must be the same for both." "Dearest woman! Just as you like. But I know what I mean." Indeed, Mr. Pellew did seem remarkably clear about it. Where, by-the-by, was that passée young lady, and that middle-aged haunter of Clubs? Had they ever existed?

But unfortunately a girl of twenty is too apt to look faded and haggard; and a woman who with us would be in her bloom at thirty, looks passee, wrinkled, and old. It is then that the sylph-like form assumes an unpleasant angularity, suggestive of weariness and care.

The creature was pretending to take for granted that widows were poor, passée things who had lived their lives and could have no more personal interest in heather moons or honeymoons! Mrs. West grew pale, and was angry with herself for caring. Barrie made her feel faded a "back number." She told herself that if she could not get rid of this girl the first thing to-morrow, she should be ill.

'Now, you see what art may do; how passee this creature was till I made her toilet, and how wonderfully the poor old beauty looks now, and she glanced complacently at the plant she had just trimmed. 'Well, it is young again and beautiful; but no I have no faith in the scissors; I still believe in the influence from the tips of your fingers, your looks, and tones.

"I couldn't count all who make eyes at me now, so what will it be when I get as old as the rest of you girls?" this a trifle maliciously, for every one of them was at least twenty, and that seemed rather passée to this bit of femininity of sweet sixteen.

"Ma poussee s'est fort bien passee!" Indeed says this entertaining tract, sans poussee, one would not be able to hold, at table or in the salon, with a neighbor of either sex, the least conversation. Further, it is by grace a la poussee that one arrives at those intimacies which are the characteristics of the baths.

We only wish for an equitable treaty, and this I hope we shall manage.... Est-ce qu'on ne vous verra pas durant les vacances? Mistress Ross est passee par Paris il y a huit ou dix jours; elle est venue me voir un instant; elle m'a paru tres bien portante. Bonne sante et bien des amities. July 22nd.

If she should wilt under this prolonged obligation of nursing, her years openly advertise their number, and she grow faded, passée, a woman who visibly has outlived her prime? She could have shaken the insufficiently dying General in his bed!

But she could think of no decent excuse for remaining away. And she was still buoying herself up with the thought that Guy's silence could not last much longer. She was bound to hear from him soon. She went to the Ball, therefore, feeling tired and dispirited, and looking quite passee, as her step-mother several times assured her.

Pellew knew best, and that it was gratifying to think how many young men's lunches her earlier days might have intensified without her knowing anything about it. The gentleman felt himself bound to reassure and confirm, for was not the lady passée? "Rather!" said he; this favourite expression this time implying that the name of these lunches was no doubt Legion.
