of the director general, there came the
invitation of the regent, practically the
command OF the king, to join the re-
gent after the opera for little supper

AS the gay words of the regent fell

heart a curious tension, PRESENT.

and curious thing were about to hap

GENT.

THE LITTLE SUPPER OF THE RE-
GENT.
Paris, city OF delights; Paris, drunk
with gold, mad with the delirium of
excuses, Paris with no aim except
joy. no method but extravaganza, held
within her gilded gates one citadel Of
sensuality which remained ever an OBJ
ject of mystery, source of curiosity
even ia that dissipated and pleasure
stated city. In the Palais Royal, back
of the regally beautiful gardens, back
OF the nozzle rows of trees, beyond the
gates of iron and the guards in uni
form, lived Frances regent, in city
of ibertines the prince of libertines.
In city where there were more mis-
tresses than wives, he it was who led
the list of the licentiouS In city of
unregulated vice and yet of exquisite
ly ordered taste, he it was who accord
ed to himself daily pleasures which
were admittedly beyond reproach.
How unspeakably unbridled, how de-
lightfully wicked, how temptingly in
geniOus in their features the little
suppers of the regent might be-these
were matters of curious interest to
all, of intimate knowledge to but few.
1t was one of these famous yet mys-
FERROUS gatherings that the regent of
France had invited the master of that
great and glittering bubble house,
wherein dwelt so insecurity the affairs
of France. John Law, director general
of the finances, controller of the Com
pany of the Indies, was chosen by
Philippe of Orleans for a position not
granted to the crafty Dubois or to the
shrewd D'Argenson, the last of that
strange trinity who made his council.
John Law, gallant, graceful, owner of
a reputation as wit and beau scarce be-
hind that of his sudden fame as finan-
cier, was admitted not only to the bust
ness affairs of the gay duke, but to his
pleasures as we'll To him and his
brother Will, still associated in large
measure in the stupendous operations
