The Dude and the APtiat,

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 a 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 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 l can't reasonably ex-
pect to get paid for it," After the
count had gone the painter added to the
portrait a magnificent pair of ass ears
and exhibited it 10 the gaze of the
curious public. 1t had not been long
SO exposed when the count broke into
the artists studio in towering rage
and, finding that threats awaited him
nothing. at last offered to buy it at a
considerable advance upon the original
price.
lit 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 l knew you
would notice the likeness as soon as
added those ears"
