The Lady Who Painted,
on
MY FIR3T WEALTHY CLIENT.
MY mood was deeply, darkly, deutie
rately blue, in fact, the little Imps
of the hypo were having It all their own
way, running In mad riot through my
brain.
I eat with my chair lipped back and
my feet elevated to the top of high desk.
I waa smoking furiously, aud reviewing
my miserable situation.
Had I been a woman, I should have
Indulged in a good cry. As it was, I
uttered a few mild oaths, for which I
trust I may be pardoned.
" Please, sir," whined my olllce-boy,
"as there a'n't no copying wanted, and
a'n't no business doing,,
" You can go to the circus and be
banged to you 1" cried I. "Clear out!"
And he cleared.
1 was ttlone in the world. A crabbed
bachelor uncle had given me an educa
tion, and seen me admitted to the bar,
aud then turned me adrift to shift for
myself. My olllce was cozy but I owetl
for my rent ; I bad a tolerable collection
of law books ; I owned the clothes on
my back.
I was desperately in love with pretty
Kelly llogers, whose parents bad smiled
upon me in the days when I was regard
ed as the prospective heir of a rich man,
but turned the cold shoulder ever since
they recognized the fact that I was an
impecunious youug man, with my own
way to make in the world. I hung out
my shingle with the legend upon It,
" Arthur Linden, Attorney aud Coun
sellor at Law but my modest little
bait bad hooked no lis!).
" Bad debts ; no money ; clothes get
ting shuby ; and invited to a party ut
Nelly's," groaned I.
Then I varied my mournful ditty,
and rellected,
" Youug and strong, but poor as u
church-mouse, aud desperately in love.
Nothing for me but the poor-house!"
I tossed away the stump of my cigar
angrily.
"If this thing last much longer, I shall
take to the road, a la Dick Turpiu!"
cried I desperately.
Then came a quick, decided rap at my
door. A cold shiver ran down my back.
I thought of Mephistopheles coming to
claim one Dr. Fautus.
"Come in!" I managed to ejaculate.
The door opened, and there stood Oen.
Pomeroy, whose jolly fuce and portly
form were familiar to everybody in town.
"What the deuce can lie, want of me'r"'
was my mental query.
"My. Arthur liiudeu, 1 believe." .
"You are right, sir.",
"My name Is Pomeroy, General
Pomeroy."
"I am pleased to make your acquain
tance, general."
"I trust you can spare 'me a little of
your valuable time. "
"I would pitch you out-of doors if I
thought you understood the irony of
tbatl" was my thought; but it did not
pass my lips. Instead I Baid aloud,
"I'm quite at .leisure this afternoon,
sir."
"Particular business," faltered the
general with a very deep blush, and the
suggestion of a Bimper., "Very delicate
aflair. By the by, Mr. Liudeu, I have
heard glowing accounts of your discre
tion, and I understand that you are not
married V
"I am not. "
"Nor engaged? Pardon the apparent
rudeness of the question. No dis
courtesy Intended, I assure you."
"I'm not engaged, sir, not matri
monially." "So I have been informed, otherwise
I should not have chosen to trouble you
with my business. Woman are the
deuce to worm secrets from a man that"
"I trust, general, that I should re
spect professional confidences, whether"
"Oh, to be sure. I dare say. No of
fence! But this is a very peculiar case,
a ticklish matter, a ve ery delicate piece
vof business, you see, Mr. Linden."
Then bending toward me aud sinking
his voice to a wisper.
" I am about to be sued for a breach of
promise."
" Is It possible !" I exclaimed, In sur
prise. '
" I'm in a bad scrape, Mr. Linden."
" I should think so, general ;' but we
must never let the case come into court
we must compromise. It would put
a gentleman occupying your prominent
positiouina very awkward, embarrass-ing"-
" Yes, yes, I know all that! But I
cannot help myself. It must be gone
through with. I have decided that I
will not marry the lady, and, of course,
I cannot prevent her suing me for dam
ages. I am in a bad fix a disagreeable
Plckwlckir.n scrape ! I need advice ; It
Is my desire to retain you as my coun
sel." I will serve you to the best of my
ability.'
" The circumstances are these," be
gan the geueral.
" And well you may blush, you old
rascal !" thought I ; "for, if my nieiu..
ory serves me, I rend your wife's death
In the paper not more than six months
ago."
" My marriage was not u happy one,
made up by family Interests, and nil
that sort of thing. I met Miss Deyton,
who Is a governess In a family of my
ftt'qualn lance, hem 1 hem ! some
months ago. I fell genuinely In love
with her. You needn't smile, Mr. Lin
den. I had my Itosalinds, but never
before a Juliet." ,
I regardetl the elderly, pompous Ko
meo critically to see if I could discover
any nascent symptoms of insanity.
But, no: save for a simper, a twinkle,
nnd a smirk he looked quite sane.though
vastly silly. ,
" I proposed to Miss Deyton, and was
accepted."
" Actually proposed, geueral V
" Upon my bended knees, sir, with
my heart In my throat. I was quite
desperate over her, you understand."
"And she lias proof of this, letters
perhaps V
"I should say so! Letters by the
bushel, love-letters, sir; I know not
what I wrote, but they were ardent, Mr.
Linden, you may be sure."
" And you have letters of hers, also,
that show her In a ridiculous light,
letters that she wouldn't like produced
In court V
"Not a line sir that isn't prudent
and reserved; not a line that any lady
need be ashamed for the whole world to
see."
" You must compromise this matter,
general. The case must not come Into
court. Y'our letters would be read aud
published; yourself made ridiculous;
your most private adUlrs bruited around
town. And the Indy would gain her
case, and recover damages, unless you
chose to- fight a thing of this sort
through all the courts aud weary her
out with litigation. Money would do it,
I suppose. My advice is buy her oil-."
" (She's not to be bought ofF. Her
motive is revenge. But I have a good
defence."
" Well, general i"'
"The lady paints!"
"Paints J"'
" Puts any quautity of rouge upon
her face, sir, and no deuyiug it ! She's
a very beautiful womau, Mr. Linden,
eyes black as sloes ; lips like ripe cher
ries ; black hair ; tall willowy form ; a
bewildering smile ; and a voice to charm
the heart out of a man."
He smacked his lips with auction,
and closed his eyes as if contemplating
a beatific vision.
"But all this is a clear case . of an at
tempt at deception, Mr. Linden.
Beautiful as the lady is, it was her bril
liant, blooming color that fired my
ftincy and she knew that well enough.
I called on her one evening, sir, It was
very warm, and in kissing her hem I
I discovered that the color ran, posi
tively ran down her cheeks. She took
her handkerchief and wiped it oil'. I
expostulated. Miss Deyton wept, and
promised to cease the practice, and did
so for some time ; but, sir, she was not
nearly bo pretty as she had been. She
resumed the rouge, and I broke the en
gagement. Now she comes down upon
me like a thief in the night, with an
engagement ring, and no end of spooney
letters and I can't Bay what all."
"I don't know about the defence."
"Think it won't wash, eh?"
" I can recall no precedent."
" But I have been deceived, duped."
" Exactly what the lady will declare
Is her case, general. I vaguely recall
au instance of a woman who refused to
live with her husband on the plea that
she had fallen in love with him for his
beautiful hair; but after marriage she
discovered that be had deceived her,
was perfectly bald, In fact, and she had
lost her affections to a wig."
"And the decision was in her fa
vor V
"it seems to me that it was. I'll
look it up general, and make as strong
a case as I can for you.
" Do so. Ah me! my predicament is
a sad one. I'm so In the habit of going
to see Miss Deyton that I don't know
what to do with my eveniugs. I never
was so lonesome in my life, Mr. Linden.
If I go to talk this unhappy aflair over
with her, she will begin to cry, and
then I shall be a goner. I cannot resist
her tears."
" General," said I, suddenly, "take
my advice and marry the lady !"
The geueral frowned ; but I detected
in his eye the look that is apt to - creep
into the eyes of the best of us when we
receive advice exactly In accordance with
our own secret wishes.
"It isn't to be thought of. I shall
call in again In the course of a week or
so. Of course I retain you as my coun
sel, sir. Good-day."
The geueral had taken out a pletho
ric pocket-book, counted out five twen
ties, and pushed them toward me.
I could scarcely believe my eyes.
I wanted to catch the dear old simple
ton around the neck, and bug and kiss
him on the spot.
I felt as a sou might feel toward a
dpUug nMbex. ha L' !.!;. J V ,f. nl.m.'
"Clod bless you!" I faltered. But
fortunately lie didn't hear me; the door
had closed upon his burly form.
I executed a war-dance!
It was delicious, delirious Mtravagan.
tn. '
No one can understand my feelings
but those who can recall the first time
they handled money of their own earn
ing. Had I earned this money, by the
way t
A week later my dear old fool visited
' me again. He sported an Immense dia
mond upon his shirt-front, ami there
was an nlr of particular spruceness
about his attire.
"Well, Mr. Linden, I've decided to
act upon your sensible advice. For a
young man, sir, you nre possessed of
wonderful acumen. I shall always es
teem you highly. I'm to be married,
sir, nnd you must be sure to come to
the wedding."
" I congratulate you general."
" Y'ou see I really love Miss Dey ton, '
and she may paint her face all the col
ors of the rainbow before ever I'll quar
rel with her again. I called upon, her
one evening to see what she intended to
do about the letters and so on. I waa
prepared for tears and a scene. But
there's no counting ou a woman. She
came into the room looking as pretty as
picture, took a seat beside me, find began
to argue.".
" To argue !"
' She asked me if I didn't wear false
teeth. I told her that false teeth were
a comfort and a necessity ; not a sacri
fice to vanity aud deception. She laugh
ed and showed her own teeth, as white
as pearls and as even as as "
The general rolled his eyes to the
celling as in distracted search for a simi
le, then resumed,
"They are hers, Mr. Linden, by a
dower of nature, and no thanks to any
dentist. She laughed, sir, aud said that
it had beeu her observation that those
who wore false teeth were generally '
very particular that they should be be
coming, and very anxious to deceive the
public eye Into the belief that they were
natural. I could not deny that, Mr.
Linden."
'" As for a little rouge being such a
gross piece of deception,' says Miss Dey
ton, 'how about the ladies who wear
false hair V" Here she took out a hair
pin or two, and shook down her heavy,
beautiful hair. She laughed roguishly
as she knotted it up again. 'Amanda,'
says I, 'it is ruinous to the skin.' 'I deny
that,' says she ; ' but even if it were so
it is not so black a sin as the tight-lacing
which destroys the health of so many
women, and of which I am innocent.'
Y'ou see, Mr. Linden, she actually did
not leave me a leg to stand upon."
" General," said I, solemuly, "If this
thing had come to law the lady would
have gained her cause without a legal
adviser : she's a second Pdrtia, 'a Dan
iel come to judgement.' "
The general heaved a profound sigh.
" In a world like this," said be, " it Is
no such easy matter to know what to
approve, or what to disapprove, or just
where to draw the dividing line."
I met Nelly Rogers at the general'a
wedding, and we came to an excellent
understanding with each other.
Ever since the morning when I had
the visit from my first wealthy client
ray affairs have prospered. The gener
al is given to litigation, and much of
his business comes into my hands; be
sides, he has won me much patronage
through his disinterested euloglums to
my discretion and forescenlc abilities ;
best of all Nelly's parents smile upon
me again as upon a rising young man.
Once a week I dine at the general's pala
tial residence, and I often smile to my
self as I gaze upon the beautiful chate
laine and her dazzling complexion. I .
am happy to add that she and the gen
eral make a very united couple, not
withstanding the lady's continued use
of war-paint.
Every Ladder has two Ends.
When a small boy, I was carryings
not a very large ladder, when there was
a crash. An unlucky movement had
brought the rear end of my ladder
against a window. Instead of scolding
me, my father made me stop, and said
very quietly :" Look here, my son,
there is one thing I wish you to remem
ber; that is, every ladder has two ends."
I never have forgotten It, though many
years have gone. Don't we carry things
besides ladders that have two ends 't
When I see a young man getting " fast"
habits I think he sees only one end of
the ladder, the one pointed toward pleas
ure, and that he does not know that the
other is wounding bis parents hearts.
Many a young girl carries a ladder in
the shape of a love for dress and finery;
she only sees the gratification of a fool
ish pride at the forward end of that lad
der, while the end that she does not see
is crushing modesty aud friendship as
she goes along thoughtlessly among the
irowd. Ah! yes, every ladder has two
ends, and it is, a thing to be remembered
in iuor:way than cue. : ;
