While flannant through the small lanes, a sign out of paperboard drew my attention. I had read there: " Refrigerator to be sold ". The letters were badly aligned by mixing the capital letters with the tiny ones. It was clear that this sign was written with much sorrow, by somebody who does not read and usually does not write. But if one wants to be lenient with the scribe, one can say to him that it is almost a table painted with much talent. Curiosity pushes me to throw a glance on this refrigerator. I strike what resembles a door of a hut fallen in ruins. A woman exceeding forty, well arranged hairstyle, wearing a dress which does not have any more a color, but which is very clean, a child of approximately five years holding its hand. It invites me with a smile natural to return in the pseudo kitchen or is the famous refrigerator which is not with the fact that a small corner of the single part of the hut. The pieces of furniture are summarized with a bed, a table out of used wooden, a small case with drawers and the refrigerator concerned. Without preamble, she says to want to sell this article, indicating it the refrigerator with a sad air as if she tests sorrow to be separated some. She specifies that she has an urgent need for money. While wanting to prolong the conversation, I pretend to discuss the price, but it avoids any discussion, while answering very briefly the only questions refer to the object of the sign. By opening the refrigerator, I notice that in only one noncold water carafe contains, which means that the refrigerator does not even function. I present my excuses at the poor lady to decline the acaht. It answers me that the business is closed, although it would have wished to have money to pay the two late months rent, or else the owner metterait it with the street without pity. A tear in the eyes, with a voice which becomes suddenly quivering, it in chains which her husband was in prison to have slapped his owner who refused to him the two days wages for absence forced to look after our sick child. By leaving the hut, I throw a last glance on his afflicting decoration. I was in a hurry to leave this lane of misery with a feeling of regret to have discovered this sad truth, and to be impotent to be able to come to assistance of this unhappy lady. The glance of the frail and thin child did much sorrow to me. By telling with my friend what I had discovered in this place, he says to me that unfortunately there are thousands of portraits identical to that of this woman, if not it y' had some worse. I answers him that the so much praised development, does not benefit everyone. Undeceive my expensive rétorque my friend, it profits above all with the rich person who enricissent themselves more.
