HEROINES OF HISTORY
Madame de SeUigne Wrote Wonderful Letters
BY MARK STUYVESANT.

; rank, attractiveness Of personal
ity, recommended him, and for
a brief time the marquise was
happy In her world which held
Voiture and Corneille, Bossuer
and Menage and Madame de
Rambouillet - the Incompatible
Observation-Disclosures of morals
and refiner of manners.
Soon 1t began to be whispered
about that the young marquis had
informed his wife that while 9TH
ers might find her charming he
did not. His infidelities became
notorious. Madame's spirit Of
purity and integrity remained
firm but, since she continued to
love her husband, her heart
broke. The marquis eventually
was killed in a duel fought for
one of his mistresses. Several
years later, upon seeing d'Albert,
the slayer Of her husband, enter
the room, madame tainted.
A period of retirement from the
world followed the death Of the
marquis. But when she had at
tanned the age Of twenty-six this
remarkable French woman again
entered society. And although
AASL AA1S was LANdO0A ny SOCA sui"
ors as Cont, a prince of the
blood; Turrenne, a victorious
general; Fouquet. a chancellor
Of the exchequef, she remained
q widow.
Madame's two children grew to
be the chief reason for her exist
ence, as her life went ON. Her
motherhood held a bit Of strange
ness, for, despite the amiability
of her son, her somewhat phleg-
matte daughter occupied her every
thought. Mademoiselle was timid,
diffident, naughty, far removed
from her mothers sweet forgetful
ness. Madame's love, neverthe-
less, amounted to a religion.
1T is a constant DEVOTION" she
once said. 1T is what one ought
to render to God"
Through letters concerning the
court and persons of importance
written to her daughter, Madame
de Sevigne is represented in liter
allure. She died at Grignan in
April, 1896.
