sfaeterlinck,s wooing.

OF the wooing of Maurice MaeterlincK
by Nine. Georgette Leblanc, the "Gil
Bias" tells the story as given by the
lady herself. Mime. Leblanc, on reading
one of the poets volumes, said to her
self. said she: This man shall be my
husband and no other" She communi-
Gated this resolution to her friends, who
made her believe that Maeterlinck was
an old man with one foot In the crave.
What was her surprise, when the long
hoped-for meeting took place, to find that
he was young and strong and beauti-
full"
The lady ran toward the poet with n
cry. But the poet bashfully recoiled, and
little wonder. perhaps, for listen to Nine.
Leblanc's own words: Il was like a
little tisress. My heart was terribly ex-
cited; my cheeks burned; and my eyes
were ahame." But there Is no armor
against fate. especially when fate takes
his bizarre but alluring form of little
tigress in . tight black dress, with q
long train. and on the forehead, between
the eyes. simple blazing diamond"
So. continues the story Of the inter-
view. Il took his hand"-fhus Nine. Le-
blanc-"and said to him. You are mine:
you are my husband He was discon-
certed by my boldness, which had the
force Of Q storm in a forest He uues-
toned me on myself and my life. Sen.
sitive as I am. I realised that he doubted
me. Give me the time said. and I
will gain your confidence Was ever
poet in this manner wooed and won?
