"Have you heard from Mademoiselle Ber er ertha?" asked M. de Bois, with some hesitation. "Yes, several times. My cousin Bertha was broken-hearted at the news I sent her from London; but I trust that soon" He did not conclude his sentence: his wan face lighted up; his restless, straining eyes were fastened upon some form that passed in a carriage.
Everything was crowded in the business part. Rose De Ber spied her out and came running up to greet her; tossing her head consequentially. "We had a gay time last night. I wish you could have peeped in the windows. But you know it was not for children, only grown people.
The procession changed about a little, the young men walking with the demoiselles and whispering in their listening ears. Jeanne was with them. Madame De Ber was quite gracious, and Marie Beeson singled her out. It had been a cold winter and a backward spring and Marie had not gone anywhere. Tony was so exigent, and she laughed and bridled.
How odd not to see a bit of prancing scarlet! The door was closed top and bottom. The tailor's wife sat on her doorstep, her husband on his bench within. "They have gone away, M'sieu," she said. "They went early this morning." He nodded. Monsieur De Ber had met him most cordially and invited him to drop in and see Madame. They were in the lane that led to St.
I hope that she will stay there," was the answer. "I should think she would come in and see James," continued Susan. "I told her he did not want to see her, and to stay out.

The word bear was universally used to denote a pillow-case. It was spelled ber, beer, beir, beare and berr.
Small earthworks had been erected on the flanks near the gates, protecting every weak point; The summit of the ridge was strongly fenced and loopholed. Two other gates led from the amba to the foot of the mountain; one had some time before been closed, but the other, called Kafir Ber, opened in the direction of the Galla country.
And I am not afraid of the Indians nor the shil loups," but she lowered her tone a trifle. "Do not put too much trust in the Indians, Mam'selle. And there is the loup garou " "But I have seen real wolves, Monsieur, and when they bring in the furs there are so many beautiful ones. Madame De Ber says there is no such thing as a loup garou, that a person cannot be a man and a wolf at the same time.
His sister has kept close watch of him, but now he is free. I was down to the dock on Friday, and he was very cordial and sent a boy over the river with me in a canoe and would take no pay. Think of that! I shall make him walk home with me if I can." Marie De Ber flushed. Some one would be glad to have him.
The place is charming, all the same; and it served the purpose of John Locke; who made a long stay there, between 1675 and 1679, and became acquainted with a noble fellow-visitor, Lord Pembroke, to whom he dedicated the famous Essay.
