When I was living in I'a^iH, I .said to my old railway Kervanl, "Hy the way, you went llirouf;h the Seige ol Paris, didn't you?" He turned lo his wile and said, uncertainly, "The .Siege of Paris? Ye.s, wr did. didn't we?" The Siege ot Paris had been only one incident among many in tlieir lik-e.s. Of course they remembered li well, though not vividly, and 1 gained much information from them. But the mo.st useful informatiuu which 1 gained from them was the perception, startling at first, that ordinary people went on liv¬ ing very ordinary lies in Paris during the siege, and tbat to tbe vast mass ol the population the siege was not Hit dramatic, spectacular, ttirlUing, ecsta tic affair that it is described tn his¬ tory.-Arnold Bennett In Introdnctiot^ to "Tlie Old Wives' Tale.
The laiullady'.s ignoiaiire (,f ihc mill tary and iiolitical situation was coui plete; the .situation did not interest lier. What interested her was that she had three men to feed, and that the price of eatables was ri.sing. Sht bought flfty pecks of potatoes at a franc a peck. One morning, on goinj; lo do her marketing, she found a no ti<-e a(-ross the shuttered window ol her creamery in the Rue .\otre Daiiit de Lorr-tte: "Closed for want ol milk." The siege had hcj;un: It wai in the closing of the crearriei>- that tlu siege figured for her; in thi.s and ii, eggs at live sous apiece. She wetii elsewhere for her milk, and .slje paid a franc a litre for it.

She rented her own room and e.s tabllshed herself In a little skylight chamber, amid a world of domostlct and poor people. On her lirst nlghi there, she worked very late, and thc rays of her candle shot uu Intennii tently through the skylight inlo the black heaven; at intervals she llitiid up and down stairs with a candle.

Her ears were soon tjuile accustom¬ ed to the BOUud of cannon, and she leit lliat Paris had always been be- .•^it gi'd. .Siu- did not speculate about i-tiv end of the siege, she lived from aay to day. (Occasionally she had a .^uulm ot fear, when the firing grew .iiomentaiily louder, or wnen she heard lliat baitle!j had beeii fougiit in such and sucii a suburb. But then she said .t was ab.smd lo be afraid when you ,v< re Willi K louple of million peopje, all in the same plight as yourself.

was like notbinf? but a raw wound. Violent anger would spring up niagic- ally out of laughter and blows out of caresses.
Soon afterwards the Germans enter¬ ed Paris, but mutual agreement, and made a point of seeing tbe Louvre, and departed, amid the silence of a city. For Sophia the conclusion of the siege meant chiefly that prices went down! f —From "The Old Wives' Tale," by
