The Dude aud the Artist.

Paris is laughing over how an artist
got even with dude who, having sat
for his picture, was so dissatisfied with
the result that he refused to pay for it.
The Count de X. recently had crayon
picture of himself made, which he
afterward pretended to find fault with.
ut does not bear the slightest resem-
blance to me-" he said, land l will not
take it," The artist protested, but all
to no avail. "All right, monsieur" he
remarked finally. ''if it is not at all like
you, of course can't reasonably ex-
pect to get paid for it." After the
count had gone the painter added to the
portrait magnificent pair Of ass ears
and exhibited it to the gaze of the
curious public. 1t had not been long
so exposed when the count broke into
the artists studio in a towering rage
and, finding that threats availed him
nothing, at last offered to buy it at a
considerable advance upon the original
price.
ut was not strange that you failed
to recognize your resemblance to the
picture at first" said the painter, de-
termined to be revenged for the slight
put upon his work. "But knew you
would notice the likeness as soon as
added those ears"

Harvey, in talking to one of his part

punctuation in the paper. There isn't
enough punctuation,' he complained,
and Coin doesn't look right without it.
There ought to be comma once in so
often, then so often colon, and all
the rest. Don't you think so?' he wound
up appealingly
