The | “first days in Paris” are just about what yours were—that somewhat blur- red selzure of everything all at once after which came the siow sorting out and proper placing of points of interest of men and of matters generally. A most _interesting characteristic of the record is that its spirit is so completely that of the present as to impart to the reader a sense of looking—not back- ward. save for superficial unimpor- tances—but straight across into the face of Paris as it is todav. A sort of communion of the spirit. so to speak. a something more lasting than a mere hand touch. Most contemporaneous in effect is this delightful story that was lived so long ago and yet is so com- pletely of our own immediate outlook and attitude.
