"Her appartement?" Sypher turned sharply to Septimus. "What's that? I thought you lived at the Hôtel Godet." "Of course," said Septimus, feeling very uncomfortable. "I live in the hotel, and Emmy lives in a flat. She couldn't very well stay in the Hôtel Godet, because it isn't a nice place for ladies. There's a dog in the courtyard that howls.

On the fifth floor she went forward and opened the door of Max's appartement. Within, all was dark and quiet, and Blake, loyally following her, passed without comment through the tiny hall, on into the little salon where the light from the brilliant sky made visible the pathetically familiar objects the old copper vessels, the dower chest, the leathern arm-chair.

No invitations to the wedding were sent out, nor any "billets de faire part"; Philippe had his designs. He lodged his wife in an appartement in the rue Saint-Georges, which he bought ready-furnished from Lolotte. Madame Bridau the younger thought it delightful, and her husband rarely set foot in it.

Gigonnet eventually died, worth eighteen hundred thousand francs, on a third floor of this house, from which no consideration could move him; though his niece, Madame Saillard, offered to give him an appartement in a hotel in the Place Royalle. "Courage!" said Pillerault, as he pulled the deer's hoof hanging from the bell-rope of Gigonnet's clean gray door. Gigonnet opened the door himself.

It is the idea that you have given me. I am very grateful to you, Monsieur Cruchot." Hégisippe laughed. "It is to my mother you should be grateful, Monsieur." "I should like to present her with a free order for the Cure for life if I knew where she lived." "That is easy," said Hégisippe, "seeing that she is concierge in the house where the belle dame of Monsieur has her appartement."

Reduced to eight hundred francs' annuity paid to her by young Desroches, who had bought a business without clients, and himself took the capital of twelve thousand francs, Agathe gave up her appartement on the third floor, and sold all her superfluous furniture.

The devoted Gaudissart lent him the money to pay the fees, for Popinot was ambitious to pay his share in the undertaking. Prosperity brings with it an intoxication which inferior men are unable to resist. Cesar's exaltation of spirit had a result not difficult to foresee. Grindot came, and presented a colored sketch of a charming interior view of the proposed appartement.

Burton is the only person whose sympathy I could count upon! How about the Duchesse? that is the deepest mystery of all I must find out from Burton what was the date about when she came to my appartement and found Alathea. Was it before that time when she asked me if I were in love and I saw that dear little figure in the passage? Could she have been thinking of her ?

She occupied in this convent a large old building in the Rue de Sèvres a small appartement in the third story, with a brick floor, and uneven at that. She afterwards removed to a small appartement on the first floor, which looked upon the convent garden. Here, in this seclusion, impoverished, and no longer young, Madame Récamier received her friends and guests.

"I have seen an appartement in the rue Müller an appartement with a charming salon opening upon a balcony, a nice little bedroom, another room with an excellent painting light, a kitchen with water and gas, all all for what do you imagine?" "What in God's name are you raving about?" Blake laid down the menu just handed to him. Max paid not the slightest heed.
