If Madame Lebrun has no of. Esicial position she has the advantages of the presidency without its annoyances. She May live her Ordinary life go and come when she pleases and have her Day at Home friends. She need not. Accompany her husband when his official obligations Are Boring and on the other hand her right of Courtesy allows her to meet the most interesting personalities of the Day.
