found bow and opened the door OF the ad-
Joining room.
This is my housekeeper, Mere Lucas"
said Taras to me as he entered, and turning
to her he spoke few words in French
which caused her to gasp an exclamation
of astonishment as she clasped her hands
together. Then, after regarding me for q
moment In silence and round eyed won
der, she addressed me In her unintelligible
language, but l understood her tone Of
apology and self reproach, and the tremu-
lous emotion in her full lips and the affec-
tionate warmth in her soft eyes fully atoned
for any hostility she might at first have
shown. Finally, as IL by an ungovsrnabls
impulse, she seized me by the shoulders
and planted couple Of sounding kisses on
my cheeks, saying as she gave me one last
embrace before leaving the room, "Pauvre
cherie, vai'
/ remember that phrase because for some
time after she never looked at me without
repeating it In the same tone of compassion.
Indeed, with my thinness and careworn ex-
preston, must have seemed to the eyes of
the fat, jolly soul deplorable indeed.
We were in the room which had been the
shop. 1t was low ceilinged, but large and
very light and bright, by reason of the long
window with the white muslin curtains,
the flowers and many pictures hung upon
the painted walls. But that which aston
ished me greatly was the surprising neat
ness and cleanliness of everything, for re-
ally this was the first time In my life that
| had ever seen the inside of a decent room,
and next to this the table, which was laid
for lunch, excited my wonder
There was vase Of cut flowers in the
middle Of the spotless tablecloth, and in
the plate set for Taras stood small loaf,
set up in white serviette which would
have made me laugh if / had not been so
perplexed by the strangeness of every
thing. The quantity Of food also seemed
quite ludicrous too. 1t was the ordinary
hour for dinner, and all that was prepared
for the repast Of great, hearty man, was a
box Of sardines, a plate Of radishes and
some butter, and Mere Lucas brought
nothing more except n cover for me and
bottle of wine, which she stood on small
