CHAPTER XXIIL.


Philip Pennycomequiek entered the hall,
with Sslome on his arm, but she instantly dis
engaged her hand as she saw Mrs. Sidebottom,
and was conscious that there was something
grotesque in her appearance hooked on to
Philip.
AS to Philip, he had been so long exposed to
the petrifying drip of legal routine, unrelieved
by any softening influences, that he was
rapidly approaching fossilation,
A bird's wing, harebell, left to the uncoun-
teracted effect of silex in suspense, in time
becomes stone, and the drudgery of office and
the sordid experience of lodging-house life had
encrusted Philip and stiffened him in mind
and manner. He had the feelings Of gentle
man, but none of that ease which springs out
of social intercourse; because he had been ex-
cluded from intercourse with those of his class,
men and women, through the pecuniary straits
in which his father had been for many years.
When, therefore, Philip proposed to Salome,
he knew no better than to offer her his arm, as
if to conduct her to dinner, or convey her
through crowd from the opera.
If he had been told that it was proper for him
to kiss his betrothed, he would have looked IN
the glass and called for shaving water, to make
sure that his chin and lip were smooth before
delivering the salute etiquette exacted.
The silicious rip had, as already said. encrust-
ed Philip, but he had not been sufficiently long
exposed to 1t to have his heart petrifed.
Many clerks in offices keep fresh and green in
spite of the formality of business, because they
have in their homes everything necessary for
counteracting the hardening influence, or they
associate with each other and run out in mild
Bohemianism.
Philips father had existed, not lived, in
lodgings, changing them periodically, as he
qusrreled with his landlady, or his landlady
,-s%1, \ r. TnHo oIa
comequick had been a grumbler, cynical, find
ing fault with everything and every person
with which and with whom he came in con
tact, as is the manner of those who have failed
in life. Such men invariably regard the world
of men as in league to insult and annoy them
it never occurs to them to seek the cause Of
their failure IN themselves.
Philip had met with no love, none of the
emollient elements which constitute home. He
belonged. or thought he belonged, socially anC
intellectually. to a class superior to that from
which his fellow clerks were drawn. The re
