left considerable fortune when Lee
Sage became an orphan as a child. His
guardians either stole or invested with
criminal careIessness the lads money,
but he was given a good education and
was admitted to the bar. Fees came in
slowly and LIE Sage faced extreme pow
erty. Yet he dared to marry and turned
to the stage for means of support.
For years he wrote, never really sue
cessfu1, but never actually in want.
He was nearly forty years of age when
a comedy gave him Partisan reputa-
tiOn, and a novel made him known to
France. The first two parts of "Gil
Bias" were published In 1715, but they
were not liked well as his earlier
story. LIE Sage, however, knew how
good 1T was, and he labOred over 1T as
devotedly as great sculptor over a
block of marble. The third part was
not published until 1924, and not until
1875 was the last part put forth. Dur
ing these twenty years he had also
turned out play after play, and numer-
GUS books. He did not cease to write
until his SEVENTEEN birthday had
passed.
Outside of France LIE Sage will al
ways live because Of his one book that
ranks among the worlds masterpieces.
"Gil Bias" is life itself, an animated
picture of Spain I'm it's most co1Orfu1
period. "It Is a work." says Sir Walter

MI BIAS, the only son of an
- old soldier, had reached the
age of seventeen when his
uncle, the village priest, who had
taught him a little Latin, Greek and
logic, sent him off with 40 ducats and
a bad mule to study divinity at Sala-
manca.
His adventures began Immediately.
At his first stop he was cheated out
of his mule; as he was eating his din
ner a willy f1atterer invited himself to
be his guest and showed his gratitude
by the good advice never to be taken
in by praise. He had to pay an exor-
bitant reckoning and went on his way,
"giving to as many devils as there are
saints in the calendar, the parasite,
the landlord and the inn.'
He soon fell into the hands of BAN
dts, who made him join them on their
raids. In one of them they captured
Dona Mencia, wife of the Marques de
la AGuardia, and brought her to their
cavern Gil Bias pretended to be i'll
and escaped with the grateful lady.
He was arrested as one of the ban
dts and as he was wearing clothes
recognized by one of their victims, and
his pockets were full of money, he
was thrown into jail. After several
weeks Imprisonment his innocence
was established, but the jailer had
robbed him of everything.
At Burgos he sought out bona Men
cha who presented him with hun
dred ducats and costly ring.
He bought pretentious outfit for
twice it's value and decided that in
stead of becoming licentiate, "he
would make his way in this world
rather than think of the next" A
second gift of a thousand ducats from
Dona Mencia confirmed him to his re-
solve.
He bought two mules and hiring a
servant, set forth for Madrid. His
servant conspired with several rogues
to make fool Of him. One of them,
Camilla, pretended to be related to
Dona Mencia, invited him to hired
lodgings as if to her own home, and
there he was Toasted and f1attered- AS
a mark of special favor she exchanged
her ruI Y ring, which she declared was
worth 800 pistoles. for his. and pro-
cured him an invitation to great
country seat for hunting and fishing.
But when he arose in the morning,
his servant, his two mules, his port
manteau and Dona Mencia's pre-
tended relatives had vanished. The
ruby ring was cheat.
Fortunately he fell in with boy
hood friend, FabriciO, at Valladolid,
and by his advice became a servant
to a clergyman, the canon Sedillo, at
whose house he led an easy life. The
canon soon died, leaving him his
worthless library, and the good for
tune of becoming assistant to his physi-
clan, the famous Doctor Sangrado. I'm
der him Gil Bias became particularly
proficient in his method of practice,
which consisted of nothing but blood
letting and "drenching of water" he
declared that he made as many wild
ows and orphans as the siege of Troy;
one of his victims was the betrothed
of giant Biscayan, who threatened
him with dire vengeance, and ne lied
