his very stronghold; 'for under Ma-
ame Tournet's roof and in Madame
Tournet's heart he reigns alone. You
two shall be good friends, says the
small old lady when they are seated
about the table, the boy voluble, ex
cited; the girl demure, as in a dream.
'You will perfect her accent, Christo
phe, which lacks a bit oh, the ver
iest trifle of being purest Parisian.
And she, my little friend, will teach
you the English that Gertrude would
try so hard once long ago, and so
vainly, teach me yes, Mademoiselle?'
"They did teach each other a good
many things, you know," said Ma
dame de Crusol a bit lamely, but her
old face was softly flushed. "No one
could be so cruel as to refuse Ma
dame Tournet anything. And their
studying so long and faithful together
accounts for their being able to col
laborate in . story-telling somewhat
successfully yes?" ; '
"Indeed yet," I agreed warmly.
There was a pause. Old de Crus-
boI broke it.
