First breakfast in the new joint and its all right.  Lunch & dinner also filled the [[underline]] Bill [[/underline]] and the French that was thrown in was over his head and hands.  I am certainly getting my money's worth here.  Also I can paint In my room if I want.

Some nice music after lunch & I am trying to parley Francais tout jour.

Proffessor came tonight & after a short lesson I went into the Saloon to cultivate my ear.

Got some wood for my fireplace P.M. & struck up a great friendship with the kid that brought it.  Looks like the will kid in the "Two little vagrants" that we saw at Biddeford Opera House, "but there aint no busses running from the Bank"?

Much talk all day & in the afternoon I went to the Luxombourg with the French fellow & afterwards to see the Besnard decoration at the Ecole de Pharmacie.  Some of them are nice & the others, well some of them are nice. 

Took a walk down to the Rue Montmartre after this & on the Avenue de L'Opera I blew myself to a chapeaux Mechanique for 15 francs.

Went this evening to her Miss Edith Le Griese sing at 8 Rue D'Athenas, she is alright on the chant.  It was elegant & when she nodded to me & smiled I swelled up so the people around had to move out.  Of course I said the wrong thing afterwards but [[underline]] then [[/underline]] I had met her [[underline]] sister[[/underline]].  Wrote home after the concert also to Gen. Loring & Mrs Kimbell
