[Note from Team Balzac, the Etext preparers: In some cases more than one English translation is commonly used for various translations/editions. In such cases the first translation is from the Saintsbury edition copyrighted in 1901 and that is the title referred to in the personages following most of the stories. We have added other title translations of which we are currently aware for the readers' convenience.] COMEDIE HUMAINE SCENES DE LA VIE PRIVEE SCENES FROM PRIVATE LIFE La Maison du Chat-qui Pelote At the Sign of the Cat and Racket Le Bal de Sceaux The Ball at Sceaux La Bourse The Purse La Vendetta The Vendetta Mme.
