A Versatile Partisan.

A quaint Partisan character was
Mile Montansler, an actress, who,
while on the stage one night. heard
Marie Antoinette say, How good that
cabbage soup they are eating smells
The actress took a bowl round to the
royal box and that night supped with
Marie Antoinerte, an honor to which
the highest mobiles in France dared not
aspire. thence in due course becoming
manager Of the fetes at Versailles
Later she was a sort of queen OF the
Palais Royal and sent to the war a
band Of actors who performed farceS
between two battles She obtained
5000. 900 francs from the revolutionary
government, almost married Napoleon
or so Barras said and had her last
love affair when she was eighty-tye
When she died She beuueathed all her
creditors to the king OF France.

trance at one end being only twenty
nine luches and at the other tifty-SiN
inches 1t gives some idea of the
width when one mentions that neigh

others candles across the street. Why
these rows have been SO constructed
has given rise to q good deal of dis
cussiou. Some writers give the reason
that when there was very high tide
the water might flow through hem;
others I'm the event Of all invasion
they would prove an excellent means
OF defense or that the ground plans Of
the rows We're suggested by the fisher
mems nets, which, spread on the dunes

their total length exceeds seven miles.
