Pitiless and cold, with a scalpel in one hand and a magnifying-glass in the other, he is at once the closest observer and the most eloquent denunciator of the moral maladies of French society. But he is not a novelist, strictly speaking. His gifts have another direction, his mind another bent.
Without sniffling, whining, or apology, with arms bared and gleaming scalpel firmly gripped in a hand that never quivered once, the author dissected her. Always he could hear this white invisible figure bending over each scene talking to the audience in his quiet terrible way: "Well, if be she has a soul, we shall find it. Perhaps it's here!"

"Ah! sir, how kind you are!" "I could wish oftener to recompense your zeal, my dear friend; but mark the subject, and take possession." And the doctor passed on.
