"I have accepted these three invitations," she informed her husband, "and to these three balls I mean to go. I shall apportion the time equally between them. You forget," she added, "that the success of these entertainments really depends on me. Crowds go only to see me, and I should never forgive myself if I disappointed them." I HAVE ACCEPTED THESE THREE INVITATIONS SHE INFORMED HER HUSBAND AND TO THESE THREE BALLS I MEAN TO GO I SHALL APPORTION THE TIME EQUALLY BETWEEN THEM YOU FORGET SHE ADDED THAT THE SUCCESS OF THESE ENTERTAINMENTS REALLY DEPENDS ON ME CROWDS GO ONLY TO SEE ME AND I SHOULD NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF IF I DISAPPOINTED THEM
them. And _à propos_ of this magnetic property of diamonds the following anecdote comes to me from the Tyrol:-- A WERWOLF IN INNSBRUCK Madame Mildau was one of the prettiest women in Innsbruck. She had golden hair, large violet eyes, a smile that would melt a Loyola, and diamonds that set every woman's mouth watering. With such inducements to seduction, how could Madame Mildau help delighting in balls and fêtes, and in promenading constantly before the public? She revelled in a universal admiration--she aimed at a monopoly--and she lived wholly and solely to exact homage. To be deprived of any single opportunity of displaying her charms and consequent triumphs would indeed have been a hardship, and to nothing short of a very serious indisposition would Madame Mildau have sacrificed her pleasure. Now it so happened that three of the most brilliant entertainments of the season fell on the same night, and Madame Mildau, with all the unreason of her sex, desired to attend each one of them.
