Bohemians of the Latin Quarter

CHAPTER IV
2/12

We shall see how, if the reader is not afraid of mounting six stories.
Take note of the banister, then, and follow.

Up we go! Whew! One hundred and twenty-five steps! Here we are at last.

One more step, and we are in the room; one more yet, and we should be out of it again.

It's little, but high up, with the advantages of good air and a fine prospect.
The furniture is composed of two French stoves, several German ditto, some ovens on the economic plan, (especially if you never make fire in them,) a dozen stove pipes, some red clay, some sheet iron, and a whole host of heating apparatus.

We may mention, to complete the inventory, a hammock suspended from two nails inserted in the wall, a three-legged garden chair, a candlestick adorned with its _bobeche_, and some other similar objects of elegant art.
