Rustique had to inform her that his devil was now thoroughly humbled and would not trouble him for some little time.
    The light having been turned on in the room, my two companions awoke from the voluptuous dream which they had been living through and sighed deeply.
    'Oh!' said Evelyn, arching her delightfully supple and small waist 'I should have liked it to go on for ever!'
    'Really?' said I: 'so it interested you very much?'
    'Oh! yes. And you too, Nora, didn't it?'
    'I should think it did,' said Nora. 'I can't imagine anything more delightful and exciting!'
    'But what I can't understand,' said Evelyn excitedly, 'is how the devil which is so big can get into the hell which is so small?
    'The entrance to hell has this peculiarity, it is extremely elastic,' I explained. 'Without any trouble, and with very little pain, it can admit the most voluminous demon provided that he does not set about his work roughly... It is only the first time that it hurts a little, and the intense pleasure soon makes up for the slight pain!... And now you know how, in order to be perfectly happy, a man and girl behave together. You are, I expect, already much more learned in these matters than the most learned of your companions, but this is only the beginning! For besides putting the devil into hell there are many other caresses by which the supreme pleasure, which Father Rustique and Alibech enjoyed so often, may be obtained through the excitement of the senses, and in these ways I hope to instruct you too, my darlings; you are not tired?
    From their sweet little mouths issued a double 'oh!' of protest which made it quite unnecessary for me to pursue that point further, and besides, at that moment, the door opened, after the usual knocks, and Madame rejoined us.

    'Now,' said she, 'if you will allow me, I will introduce to you my assistants.' And turning to Evelyn and Nora she continued: 'You will have before you, young ladies, the pick of the beauty and grace of Paris. I make a point of gathering round me only girls who are really beautiful, well educated, and of charming disposition and character. They are well trained and full of tact, and I can assure you that you will in no way suffer by making their acquaintance, but quite the contrary.'
    My two little friends bowed somewhat nervously. I pressed them to me affectionately and whispered, 'Even if they are all this, you surpass them a hundredfold!'
    A fond look from each of them seemed to thank me, and Madame conducted us to the drawing-room.
    Here there was none of that bad taste which is so often to be seen in houses of this description.
    The temple of the Rue Ch— is the abode of good style. There are not too many mirrors and there is no tawdry gilding about. All the furniture and fittings are of the best class and seem designed to set off to the best advantage the pretty faces and the sparkling eyes which are to be encountered there.
    The drawing-room was already occupied, for we found there about a dozen of the young women of the establishment—or rather I might say of the young girls, for the eldest of them was not more than twenty-five, and some of the younger ones seemed, as indeed I knew them to be, considerably under twenty-one, which is the youngest at which legally a girl may enter a bordel in Paris—who rose to meet us as we entered. They were all charmingly dressed and showed not the slightest signs of being what they really were. One would have taken them for society girls who had met together at a friend's house for a little gossip and music. And indeed one of them was seated at a fine Erard grand which, draped with rich material and half surrounded with little palm trees, occupied one corner of the room. She was just finishing the last bars of the adagio of a sonata as we entered and it was evident from her touch and execution that she was a first-rate pianist.
    Among the first of those who came to meet us was my little friend Rose, of whom I have
