CHAPTER I
I was in love. And, pray, what has
love to du with old clothes?
Arguments crowd upon inc. I might
tirot3—quid nJ one who has suffered from an
all but universal eipdetnio will deny—that
love has some little to do with new clothes.
One wore step, and the .reasoning would
be complete. Suppose, however, we waive
argumentation, und you let me tell my
story ?
1 was inhive, -- and had some old clothes.
But this would have been little to the par.:
pose, and nothing at all my. present
purpose, if Jack Arthington had not
been in love, and had sonic old clothes
too. Jack and I had gone. through (to
gether) the successive, stages of fagging,
getting licked, being entered on the col-,
lege books,, taking our degi'ee, choosing
the Inner Temple for our inn, being
called to the bar, and finally falling most
'absurdly head over ears into violently
eratic ways. On the same day no fell
in love with the same girl, and made con
fidants one of the other to the infinite
disgestrof.-both.--- But •What-was--to -be
done.? We. had taken a set of chambers
jointly, always walked together "to West
minster and back, together frequently

could open the letter-box with-the evi
dent expectation of !'instructions," and
the result of a Bond street envelope en
closing a "little bill," without feeling
scorn of self, or incurring the.ridicule of
the other. Plainly, we thoroughly Un
detStood each sither; ,neither lotting the
other down byinrpatience of Weal:nesse,
or intolerance of peculiarities. To be
without briefs is bad enough ;.but what
is it to be without briefs, and, over
and above, without sonic one else
who is also without briefs, to whom you
can distinctly show that you aro sure
eventually to get them, and from whom
you - can receive a like demonstration. -
Therefore, clearly we must not cut
each other. People have given Up blow
ing out each other's brains as a, -satisfac
tion to the girl with whom they have
both happened to fall in love. Duels are
considered ridiculous; but, ye heavens:
what would be said were two barristers—
ay, and briefless barristers—to fight a
duel ?• Did one survive (it is more than
pro'iable that both would), lie would
hive to shunt himself from very shame.
Dare he show his face among the wits
rather small ones, nowadays) of West
minster Hall y I put this to Jack.
"f-"oniething in it," said Jack, and
puffed at his rutty.
"~uuictLinp PIT—I. ''We live
in Pump Court—lt's • qui'e handy—sup
pw..c We pump each ,idler?''
On the first blush, this might seem a
very fair proposal ; a inoment's- explana
tion will show it to have been the very
reverse. Jack was a Hercules both in
size and strength; I am forced to own
that 1 am diminutive in stature, and not
over mighty in sinew. So that this re
sult would ensue : Jack Arthington
-would have been able to pump an im
mense volume of water by Atrength of
arm on to my small
.surface; wherehs 1
should have pumped but a sorry stream
on to Jack's very wide spreading one.
This I pointed out,
"No, no ;fair play's n jewel, arid_both...
are very rare. I'll take you metaphori
cally ; if you like, we will be at
liberty to pump, in other words, to throw
cold water, on each Wu:l"s, suit. And,
saving your pleasure, I'll begin. You!
know you have more debts than expecta- 1
tions, and more duns than you will ever!
have clients. Haven't you Jack ? You
know you have,"
"I know you owe me three coutres"
(he meant sovereigns, I believe, but at!
this distant day um not quite oertain),l
"and your tailor three times as ninny-
tens. It woulthet be a bad plan to have
you arresced for your debt to me."
"1 would write to Blanche to bail me:
I Ictory
out."
believe you would. If I had your
cheek !"
"It' I had your whiAers "
Su we bantered each other, thou, , b
with roil earnestniss underneath : for
that we both loved Blanche eluterton is
as certain as that we both had old oloth-
I give it as my opinion that Blanche
had rather encouraged me ; and rather
di•countenaneed Jack. \Ver.,. he, not I,
writing this story, lie would likely enough
give it as his opinion that Blanche had
rather encouraged hire, and rather dis
-1 countenanced WC. 1 didn't know wheth
er he would or would nut be honest
enou,gli to confois that I can (or could in
those days) talk - him altogether out of
time, and dance him altn;.ctlier out, of
curl lam honest enough, though temp
ted like all auteLiogrupeni to give my
self the pus on all occasions, to confess
that his personal appearance threw mine
into a mean obscurity, his whiskers alone
leaving me "nowhere," At Torquay,
during the "Long," now just over, had
we met Blanche Chatterton and there
for live weeks, had he been playing his
good looks rgainst my glib tongue. A
wonderful girl was this Blanche. Of,

course she was handsome—all women are;
but neither flattery ncr impudence has
ever ventured to assert that they are all
capable of obtaining universal homage
and universally rejecting it. Site would
9sit on the'terrace overlooking that soft
sunny sea, or constitute herself front
whim a temporary wall flower in the
Assembly Rooms, and there accept with
an indiscriminately courteous indifference
whatever - shells, flowers or incense of any
kind male bipeds might choose to offer.
I verily believe, if any_of them had • off
ded her his head, she would have re
ceived it with 'a "thank.you'' as noncha
lant as. the "no, "thank y0u,"..--Witli
which she had refused most of their
hearts. Men seemed to vie with each;
,other in turning theuisolveS into alowns
with the everlasting, ."Whet shall I go
for to fetch for to carry ?"_ that one re
meMbers, at the circus, simply in- her
tinreniiirierating behoof.' • They might go.
and might fetch, and might carry to any
extent they pleased ; what cared she ?
Perhaps they we.'e intended- for_.such
pUrposes; they had legs ; by all
,means
let them be exorcised, I think no one
had "fetched". More.than my friend Jaek . ,

After his desiring me to be suspended

VAI MANIA
The value of the meerschaum pipes and
cigar tubes imported into the United States
in 1.8.18, it is stated, amounted to $200,000
—a great sum to be wasted on a mere shun',
This is really getting to be a serious busi
ness. It.is bad enough to waste time and
money—to sny nothing of breath—in the
consumption of the evil weed ; but when to
this is added the mania for coloring expen
sive pipes, thus increasing the habit of
smoking, the fully of it all is really too
preposterous.
We were ;unused the other day at hearing ,
a young but ambitious smoker gravely as
stnling that his meerschaum was made of
the foam of the sea I This impression has
probably arisen frotn the German word used
to designate the material—mcerschant mean
ing sea, foum—a poetical figure of speech,
alludin .to itsdightness and whitish appear •
once. It is probably magnesite, a 'mineral
of soft, earthy texture, somewhat resembling
chalk, found in Spain and other countries at
the head of the Mediterranean. To produce
the yellow'and brown colors so much ad
mired in the pipes, and which are brought
out. only alter long smoking, the blocks of
which the pipes ale made are kept b,r some
lime in a mixture of' wax and fatty matters:
A portion of these are absorbed, and, being
subsequently acted upon by the heat iv.d the
tobacco fames, assumes various shades of
color. Thus the Smoker, in coloring his
pipe.. is employed in the dignified business
of mingling tobacco smoke with a mixture
of wax and crease
_ .
.... .-
Here we are reminded of a little incident
which recently took place within our know
ledge, and which amusingly illustrates the
folly of ineerscbannteeloriug. A gentleman.
had an experoive meerschaum, which he do
ted upon, bid which, notwithstanding a I big
smoking, he could not color so fast as ho
;desired. In fact, after low; puffing, it only
showed one little spot of- brown. Seine ef
his friends told him they did not believe it
I would ever cder, and the indefutagabl3
'smoker grew quite despondent. One even_
ins; his wife, who naturally sympathised
with him in trouble, took up the pipe during
his abscence, and, while examining it,
brought it over the flame of a lamp. - Im
mediately a strong color was brought. out by
Ith.: heat, much to the surprise of the lady.
Laying the pipe-away, however, she said
nothing about the matter. On the follow
ing, morning, when the gentleman made his
!usual iespection of his beloved pipe, his
delight and amazement knew no bounds.
(Ifs meersehnum had colored splendidly, and

displayed it in triumph to his friends, and.
