Fat and rich, in perfect health, and carrying his sixty years with the lightness of forty, Molina Molina the "Tumbler" as he was nicknamed spent his afternoons on the Bourse and his evenings in the greenroom of the ballet.
I knew nothing of this, and, finding them all very solemnly assembled in the greenroom, asked them cheerfully why they were all there, which must have struck them strangely enough. I dare say they do not know how little I know, or wish to know, about this disastrous concern. On my return home, I heard that Dr. Watson had seen my father, and requested that Dr. Wilson might be sent for.
The other illustration is connected with a memorable peep behind the stage, when the late M. Coquelin had invited me to see him in the greenroom between the first and second acts of "L'abbe Constantin," one of the plays given during his last season in London, the year before his death.
"Where does she come from?" I asked in my turn, and was told that she came from the greenroom, and that she was Mademoiselle Florine; but, upon my word, I could not believe a syllable of it, such spirit was there in her gestures, such frenzy in her love.

I wonder what they would say to the drawing-room decorum of our Covent Garden greenroom. Thursday, May 26th. Tried on dresses with Mrs.
They motored down to Fisher's Pond, which is a lake, and stopped in a natural woodland-opening like a dim-lighted greenroom. From it stretched the enameled lake, the farther side reflecting unbroken woods. The nearer water-edge was exquisite in its clearness.
"This was popularity and it must be confessed that only one man in France to-day receives such marks of it. This man is Gambetta. "Meanwhile Claretie's minister continues his walk through the corridors of the Opéra house. He reaches the greenroom of the ballet at last and exclaims: "'And that is all! "Alas, yes, your Excellency, that is all! And everything is only a "that is all," in this world.
