"But it is a very happy one, and I am in no hurry to wake."
Our intended limits are already exceeded. We shall, therefore, only put on record, for the benefit of future tourists, that in the Cours Public at Moulins they may still find excellent accommodation for large and small parties at the house of a restaurateur, whose buxom, bustling wife, Madame Jaqueline, manages matters after a fas.h.i.+on that induced a gourmand to observe latterly--"With such cooking a monkey might eat his own father." Her attentions are unremitting--and the only piece of unasked advice that she is in the habit of offering to her guests is, never to drink cold water, particularly in hot weather, without tempering it properly with good wine or _Eau de Vie_.
