Ce n'est pns assez d' être surveillé eu cbsse ct en étud e; il faut que nou soyons espi onnés jusque clans nos jeux.

Surely you IYOtlld not wound your father's heart and mine by le:wing us so soon? Besides, your father bas mad e such provision for you as 11·ill accompli h all you d esire, and we can a II of us li Ye together.'' ··I must go back to Paris, mother, there to finish my law studies, as I did my classics and philosophy." " You prefer then, ,:ir, the society or skwgers to t he bosom of your fam ily?'' and the littb er glanced angrily at his son. ''I mu st go to Paris ,'' replied GustaYe. As he r epeated the woHls, be arose from t il e tttble and attempted to lea ve the room. Hi:; :;ister, who hnl1 been a silent witness of this hC~sty and il l-concer ted scene, threw her arms abont his neck. ' ·Oh, my brother, do not leaYc us; do not lea 1·e our f>l.ther a ncl mother, do not lea vc onr house.
