the man took one of the glasses from the little rack and filled it by turning one of the when the boy had taken his drink and paid the money the man wiped the glass with a which he kept for the purpose and then putting it back in its place on the rack he went on his little bell in the mean time the crowd of people seemed to increase and it appeared to and the fields how to find the way to in a strange city they came to observe particularly that they were nearly all walking one way and that was up the avenue as if there were some place in that direction where they were all going e ii supposed that of course it was a church he had been told by his father when they were travelling in england that when he was in any strange place on sunday and wished to find the way to church one good method was to observe in the streets whenever he saw any considerable number of people moving in the same direction and to join and follow them he would in such cases his father said be very sure to be conducted to a church and after going in he would generally find some one who would show him a seat and had often practised on this plan in fact they took a particular interest and pleasure in going to church in this way as there was something a little of the nature of adventure in it when accordingly the children observed that the great mass of the people that filled the two side avenues as well as the carriages that were in the central one were all moving steadily onward together paying little attention to the and and other places and means of amusement which were to be seen under the trees on either hand he concluded that while some of the people of paris were willing to amuse them in paris and conclude to go to church and selves with sports and on sunday the more respectable portion would not stop to look at them but went straight forward to church and he and resolved to follow their example i should like to see all these things very much said some other day but now we will go on to the church where the rest of the people are going very cordially approved of this plan and so they walked on together it happened that at the time when they came to this determination there was walking just before them a party consisting apparently of a father and mother and their two children the father and mother walked together first and the two children hand in hand followed the oldest child was a girl of about s age the other was a very small boy just beginning to learn to talk and came immediately behind these children and were very much interested in hearing them talk together especially to hear the little one in french he called his sister and she called him thus and knew the names of the children but they had no way of finding out what were the names of the father and mother now said in a low tone i the fields tlie machine a theatre witli images for actors think we had better follow this party and keep close to them all the time and then when we get to the church perhaps they will give us a seat liked this proposal very much and so she and walked along after and not too near them but so near as to keep them always in sight sometimes the party turned aside from the avenue to walk under the trees and sometimes they stopped a few minutes to look at some curious exhibition or spectacle which was to be seen at one place a man had a square marked off and enclosed with a line to keep the crowd back and in the middle he had an machine with which he gave to any of the who were willing to take them a boy kept turning the machine all the time at another place was a little theatre mounted on a high box so that all could see with little images about as large as dancing on the stage or holding with each other the words were really spoken by a man who was concealed in the box below but as the little images moved about continually and made all sorts of corresponding with what was said it seemed to the precisely as if they were speaking themselves besides this the images would walk about in paris whirling machines hunting each other quarrel and fight each other run out at little doors and come in again and do a great many other things which it was very wonderful to see such little figures do there were places too where there were great whirling machines under splendid tents and with horses and boats and ships and at the of them all of which were made to sail round and round through the air carrying the children that were mounted on the horses or sitting in the ships and boats there were also several places for shooting at a mark with little spring guns which were loaded with peas instead of there were figures of bears lions ducks deer and other animals at a little distance which were kept moving along all the time by machinery for the children to shoot at with the peas if they hit any of them they drew a prize consisting of cake or or of some sort of or toy of which great numbers were hanging up about the shooting place all these and a great many other similar for amusing people and jane saw as they passed along but they did not stop to look at them excepting when the gentleman and lady stopped whom
