Now, when can see him?'
He is so sensitive, sir, and gets
SO easily excited when introduced to

it would be best to bring him here;
and-so at least ourlamily physician
counsels-to leave him at your insti-

"Undoubtedly, undoubtedlv,' re-
piled NJ. de Jauville; nothing could
be better. When do you think You
will bring the young gentleman? I

have'hi room in rea diness.''
"M de Jauvile took her to one Of

the lady had paid for a week in ad-
vanceshe took her departure, promis-
ing to bring her son about 6 that
afternoon.
And now said the physician a t
parting, a word Of advice to your
self. Keep. calm and quiet, madam.
No unnecessary excitement, if you
! please. No tears, no scene at parting.
Just come here asst you were going
to pay a visit, present me to your
son and leave Immediately 1t is
always best to leave the patients to
us. We understand how to treat
and quiet them. Leave taking
tears, embraces and all that sort of
thing are bad for nervous persons.
So pray be calm, collected, and brief.

She walked into the store with the

and inquired for NJ Labouriau.

"'My husband has just presented
me with $4,000 francs. M. La bouri-

other. This one surely was exquisite,
but the other became her still better,
did it not? What did monsieur
think? Monsieur was una BILE to de-

failed her. She had never seen any
thing more lovely and brilliant.
1T was a literal 'embarras de rich
esses, and among all these beautiful
treasures madame was not unable to
decide for herself, but, in fact. could
not decide without having her dear
husbands opinion on them.
"What could she do? Monsieur was
so exceedingly busy hecould not pos
sible come to the store himself.
Would Mr.. Labouriau be SO kind as
to send one OF his young men with
those six parures to her home with
her? She had her carriage at the
door. True, it was a long drive, but
in two hours or three at the latest,
! the young man could return. To
gethcr with NJ de Jauville she would
decide on one Of the parures, pay the
young man. and return the others.
She was sorry to give SO much trouh-
lie, but really what could she do?
NJ. Lnbouriau fairly exhausted
himself in polite phrases. Why the
trouble is not worth mentioning.
Most certainly he would send one of
his clerks with her-nay, better still,
he would send his own son.
