@. You were accustomed to discuss your
private affairs quite freely togetheri
A. With perfect freedom
@. You were aware that your friend Girard
had an uncle in Paris-Joseph Meisner, ths
money-lenderi
A. was aware that Girard bad an uncle
IN Paris, but 1 did not know his name, Or In
Iced anything about him, except that hs was
rich and miserly. We never talked Of him
the subject was distasteful to Girard, and
avoided it
Q. On the night Of Monday, the 24th, you
we're along with Girard at tho Cafe Do h
Sourcef
A. Yea
Q. What was the subject Of your convex
sntion therei
A. We talked, among other matters, Of our

The street stands are in operation far into
the night Big smoky lamps fare over them,
and their owners voices are, II possible, more
penstrating than in daylight The crowd
surges on, on, apparently without diminish

where and is seen no more until daylight,
when the curious, fatiguing scene b al enact

New Year has become quite an everyday
affair Then, without the silence Of the
Arabs, but with many q loud and angry
word. the street venders fold their tents and
depart for long. long time
By that time. lol already near at hand,
Christmas and New Year and all their joys
will be but memories, and humdrum exist

Love Is eternal, so the strong souls say,

Unto the mighty words, with sneer Or sigh,

Holding within Itself no strength whereby

And in the heart Of man abide alway.
