MONTE CARLO; THE CASINO.
1510
"Ascenseur! A-a-sce-en-scurf The long, clear musical cry of the lift-boy is the first sound I hear as I step out of the train at Monte Carlo. My car regi ters it just as my nose re 'gistered the nocturaal fragrance of Cannes. I fool the click of memory, I remember before I forget. The cry of the lift-boy at Monte Carlo is like the cry of the muezzin. It is a symbol. It is the voice of the siren city singing the song that lures even Ulysses into her arms. "Ascenseur !"
Monte Carlo is simply a lift lubricated with tukury. t dips down into the wealth of the
world. It goes up full and comes down empty,
It works with lovely grace and langourous ease. It is lyrical larceny, the very poetry of theft, "Arcenteur!”
NITRATE OF SIN.
Monte Carlo is not a city. It is a machine, burnished like an exhibition model, with wheels of thinning shops and hotels and restaurants, all driven by a piston-rod of pure gold-the Casino. In fuel is humanity of all ranks and races from garçon to gold-god, prostitute to priest, Mr. Chamberlian to Otére. If you were to put the whole world' into a lemon-squeezer and crush it into a tumbler, one drop of the liquid would be Monte Carlo.

Every sentinel wears the ring of Gyges. The Casino employs shadows to ah idow its clients. But the dim pressure of these shadows is like the pressure of the at muphere.
