And minutes as centuries measure, Jerry King! Conversation may be divided into two classes—the familiar and the sentimental. It is the province of the familiar, to diffuse cheerfulness and ease—to open the heart of man to man, and to beam a temperate sunshine upon the mind.—Nature and art must conspire to render us susceptible of the charms, and to qualify us for the practice of the second class of conversation, here termed sentimental, and in which Madame de Menon particularly excelled.

“Then I presume you ate more of them than was good for you.” Bob thought he detected a little note of disappointment in his chum’s tone, but the words of congratulation seemed sincere. He found Madame de Menon and his sisters awaiting his return in the most painful anxiety; and, thus disappointed in all his endeavours to penetrate the secret of these buildings, and fatigued with fruitless search, he resolved to suspend farther enquiry. “Not a bit—only wish I’d thought of it. Was the old man pleased?”.
