Basil Kirby meant to go to the French capital, and no farther, and had he remained in that state of mind, there would have been a far different tale tc tell. His present purpose was to enjoy a change, lingering about Paris, and seeing again the Bohemian students quarter, and letting the frisky old Countess go her way. The reputed Hol bein was the lure.
