Marche

Why did I think a commonplace pickpocket at the Bon Marché was a notorious criminal, wanted by two countries?

"Come in, my dear, and tell me what you think of those new teacups in the Bon Marché catalogue," said the old lady.

Not a good way, truly, of closing the marché aux consciences.

Then I go and buy provisions, bon marché—and she cooks them—and we have our meals better than at the hotel and at half the price!

On the Place du Vieux-Marché the scaffold was raised, and a post to which the text of the verdict was affixed.
