He brought out, sharply cut and certain, the immense effect of purposelessness in London that I was already indistinctly feeling. We found ourselves at last returning through Highgate Cemetery and Waterlow Park and Ewart was talking. "Look at it there," he said, stopping and pointing to the great vale of London spreading wide and far. "It's like a sea and we swim in it.
The whole thing struck Francie herself as infinitely less lurid than Mme. de Brecourt's account of it, and the part about her own situation and her beautiful picture seemed to make even less of the subject than it easily might have done. It was scanty, it was "skimpy," and if Mr. Waterlow was offended it wouldn't be because they had published too much about him.
"I'm only going to take him to see Mr. Waterlow." "Has he become all of a sudden too shy to go alone?" "Well, you know Mr. Waterlow has a prejudice against him and has made him feel it. You know Gaston told us so." "He told us HE couldn't bear him; that's what he told us," said Delia. "All the more reason I should be kind to him. Why Delia, do realise," Francie went on.
"Ah my dear friend!" and poor Gaston, with another of his revulsions, panted for gratitude. "The limit will be yours, not hers," Waterlow added. "No, no, I've done with limits," his friend ecstatically cried. That evening at ten o'clock Gaston presented himself at the Hotel de l'Univers et de Cheltenham and requested the German waiter to introduce him into the dining-room attached to Mr.
None the less Charles Waterlow, who thought he had charming parts, held that the best way hadn't been taken to make a man of him, and the zeal with which the painter appeared to have proposed to repair that mistake was founded in esteem, though it sometimes flowered in freedom.
Sir Sydney Waterlow was one of the first to lead the way, and he was followed by others. But it was not until Mr. Peabody had left his splendid benefaction to the poor of London, that any steps could be taken to deal with the evil on a large and comprehensive scale.
Seeing the picture and hearing this, Mme. de Brecourt, as a disinterested lover of charming impressions, and above all as an easy prey at all times to a rabid curiosity, would express a desire also to enjoy a sight of so rare a creature; on which Waterlow might pronounce it all arrangeable if she would but come in some day when Miss Francie should sit.
The girl had plunged into these he already heard her push a sharp bolt. Presently he went away without taking leave of Mr. Dosson and Delia. "Why he acts just like Mr. Flack," said the old man when they discovered that the interview in the dining-room had come to an end. The next day was a bad one for Charles Waterlow, his work in the Avenue de Villiers being terribly interrupted.
They differ from the Peabody and Waterlow buildings of London, described in Bradstreet's last August, from Starr's Philadelphia dwellings, and from the operations of the "Improved Dwellings Association" of New York in these particulars: the latter are financially a pure question of direct investment; are mainly concerned with life among the poor of cities, and, whatever philanthropy may be in their motive, are capable of adaptation to any class of citizens.
Do go and get it DO!" And Delia pushed him, looked for his hat for him. "I knew he wanted to print something and I can't say I didn't!" Francie said. "I thought he'd crack up my portrait and that Mr. Waterlow would like that, and Gaston and every one. And he talked to me about the paper he's always doing that and always was and I didn't see the harm.
