Cardinal Richelieu suffered from nevrosis, be-
cause when the moment arrived FOR making a
decision on an important matt I, he shut HIM

Sarah Bernhardt is n typical case of nevrosis
just now the malady must be critical. L passed
by her pretty villa in the Avenue de Villiers IA
few days ago in front is Meissoniers house, on
the opposite side Gounod's mansion. It had a

The banks keep bursting and money-changers
emigrate to foreign ports to escape the wrath to
come. Except the funds, all other scrip seems
to be forsaken by investors. The Golfers of the
Bank of France are overlooking with money

Money unemployed is always the most costly for
its owner. No money, 10 credit no credit no

rogues, consisted III giving the suspected three
unleavened cakes of the size of an egg, to swal-
