"But we own the line to the curb and will cut it off there," one of the workers declared, according to Mr. Brady.

Polly and Paul and Paris 1 Chapter LII The Little Cafe By Zoe Beckley They hurried on, threading the network of ancient streets behind the Louvre that leads, to the district of Les Halles, the vast markets of Paris. Sleepy lights still shone from the lampposts, but scarcely a sound yet broke upon the silence of "I'm hungry as a wolf," Polly told Barray, "and cold as icicle. Do let's go into that cunning place and have coffee." "Where the market man just went?" Barray looked a bit incredulous. Polly nodded vigorously.

"Certainly! It looks too cute for anything Are we so proud we can't mix with the work folks we who've beenr prowling through Paris streets all night We are work folks, come to, think of it; you're a a something in a bank, and I'm a housekeeper and a good too." Barray hesitated a moment. "That gives me an idea. Can you would you wait here just an instant while I run in? I'll be right back." Polly nodded, wondering. He was back again promptly. "Wrap your, cloak tightly, so your pretty gown won't show, and follow: me quickly into the' little back room." "Now tell me about it," whispered Polly eagerly, when coffee had been brought, with crisp fresh bread and pats of sweet butter, "why did you have to come first?" "Because," Barray answered with crinkling eyes, you and I aren't allowed in here! Hal I judge from your expression, Queen Polly, that you are thinking they ought to be highly honored!

Paris law says all cafes shall close at a certain hour, 1 o'clock, I believe. They make an exception of this little place solely on account of the market. It is permitted them to serve workinr- folk only. Otherwise the place would be overrun with revelers, tourists and whatnot. That's why I had to come in and arrange.

If it were known that they let us come their permission for business would be revoked." "How interesting! Oh, I having the most fun!" and Polly hugged herself delightfully, sipping her hot coffee. "Just like a woman loves the forbidden!" "But whatever did you tell them about us?" "You gave methe idea. I told them we were working peopla that I was a newspaper man (I was once) and you my assistant (deny it if you can). But come now, finish that elegant repast of yours, and we'll go see the markets."
