Pity for those unknown or half-known neighbours whose faces he must often have looked on ces pauvres morts! took an almost remorseful character from his grief for the delicate creature whose vain longings had been perhaps but a rudimentary aptitude for the really high things himself had represented to her fancy, the refined happiness to which he might have helped her.

I read Balzac for instance I encounter the admirable portrait of Valérie Marneffe in La Cousine Bette." "And you contrast it with the poverty of Emile Augier's Séraphine in Les Lionnes Pauvres? I was awaiting you there. That's the cheval de bataille of you fellows." "What an extraordinary discussion! What dreadful authors!" Lady Agnes murmured to her son.

When we remember that the man who thus expresses his delight was in the act of writing "Les Parents Pauvres," and of evoking scenes of touching pathos and gloomy horror, we are once more amazed at the extraordinary versatility of Balzac's mind and genius.

"Pauvres garcons." Jacques, who was a little longer in coming to inspect the derelict, hearing what his companion said, called out for further information. "De quel pays sont-ils?" he asked. "Can you tell their nationality?" "Anglais, sans doute!" was his reply. "Je le crois par leur air." This made Jacques prick up his ears.

What if you are shamed as a deserter and a coward?" Armand turned, rose with an effort from the recumbent to the sitting posture, and stared dizzily in the face of the Medecin des Pauvres.

Grimm and Ferrier headed other detachments that startled the well-dressed idlers on the Boulevards.

During the latter time of the bombardment, he, the Medecin des Pauvres, was on the eastern ramparts, and his attention was suddenly called to a man mortally wounded by the splinter of a shell. While examining the nature of the wound; De Mauleon, who was also on the ramparts, came to the spot. The dying man said, 'M. le Vicomte, you owe me a service. My name is Marc le Roux.

Stained glass windows are wanted in the church; he has only six; fourteen more are needed. He gets them at 300 francs 12 pounds a window in Paris. I was nearly offering half a dozen, but remembered you, and so only gave him something pour les pauvres. You had a narrow escape, Robbie. You should be thankful. I hope the 40 pounds is on its way, and that the 60 pounds will follow.

The first, a fervent sympathy with our soldiers, who were engaged in the struggle ces pauvres soldats, the real France, the real PEOPLE, obeying the noblest motives honour duty opposing the POPULACE, whose envy and evil instincts had been let loose by a handful of ambitious men.

His fame was now at its zenith, the series entitled "Les Parents Pauvres" had awakened the utmost enthusiasm; and the elite of the Parisian world were eager to flock to the Rue Fortunee to stare at the curiosities collected there, and to make the acquaintance of Balzac's rich and distinguished Russian wife.
