Chester calmly walked in. "That's certainly fortunate," she said. Every ear was alert and Beloiseau was suddenly eager to speak, but she smilingly went on: "It's true that, coming of a family of politicians, and being pet daughter only one of a judge, I may be a trifle broad on that point. Still I think you're right and to be congratulated." The whole coterie felt a glad thrill.
"Scipion," said Castanado to a short, swarthy, broad-bearded man, "I have the honor to make you acquaint' with my friend Mr. Chezter." Chester pressed the enveloping hand of "S. Beloiseau, Artisan in Ornamental Iron-work." "Also, Mr. Chezter, Mr. Rene Ducatel; but with him you are already acquaint', I think, eh?"
Chester, entering, found Beloiseau looking eagerly into the volume. "All the same, Landry," the newcomer said, "you're no more a machine product than Mr. Beloiseau himself." The bookman smiled his thanks while he followed the craftsman's scrutiny of the pages. "'Tis what you want?" he asked, and Chester saw that it was full of designs of ironwork, French and Spanish.
"Ah, madame," Beloiseau exclaimed, "you are co'rec'! But, any'ow, in a caze where the two faith' are con-tra-ry 'tis not for you Protestant' to be diztres' ab-out! You, you don' care so much ab-out those myzterie' of bil-ief as about those rule' of conduc'. Almoze, I may say, you run those rule' of conduc' into the groun' and tha'z right!
Alexandre finally rose to go, and had kissed the upturned brow of her hostess, she went by an inner door and rear balcony. And when Chester and Beloiseau began to take leave their host said to Chester: "You dine with M. De l'Isle Tuesday. Well, if you'll come again here the next evening we'll attend to that business." "Wouldn't that be losing time? I can just as well come sooner."
Both Castanados seemed to take note of it as if it had come since, and she to be willing they should note it. "No," they said, "Mme. Alexandre had gone with Dubroca and his wife to that movie of Sarah." "And also with M. Beloiseau?" asked Mélanie, with a lurking smile, as she sat down so fondly close to madame as to leave both her small hands in one of her friend's.
"Ah, not well one wounded, one h'arm broke, one trench-fivver, but all safe, laz' account." "Tell me more about them, Beloiseau. You know I don't easily ask personal questions. Tell me all I'm welcome to know, will you?" "I want to do that to tell you all; but" M. Ducatel, next neighbor above, was approaching "better another time ah, Rene, tha'z a pretty warm evening, eh?"
Beloiseau lifted a finger: "I don' think thad way. Firz' place, big stick or no, that hiztorie is sure to be accept'." M. De l'Isle let out a roar that seemed to tear the lining from his throat: "Aw-w-w! tha'z not to compel the agceptanze; tha'z to scare them from stealing it!
Alexandre pushed behind, was lifted to her parlor. Returning to the street, Chester found the motors gone, MM. De l'Isle and Beloiseau gone with them, and only the two Dubrocas, the three Chapdelaines, and Cupid awaiting him.
Alexandre she have a very amiable daughter; and, laz', not leazt, you know, those Chapdelaine' " "I certainly do," Chester murmured. "Yes, assuredlie," said Beloiseau.
