Once or twice this summer he has looked like a man, and appeared capable of throwing off this destroying habit, and then by my wretched folly I made him do worse than ever," and she burst into a remorseful passion of tears. "That's right, my child," said Mr. Eltinge, taking off his spectacles that he might wipe his sympathetic eyes; "you were very much to blame.
"I think you are very cruel to treat a helpless man in this style." "Indeed, sir, I have not taken away your crutches. When you spoke of a helpless man, to whom did you refer?" "I thought you once said that mercy was 'twice bless'd." "That's a truism that has become a little trite. Don't you think Mr. Eltinge will like my bouquet?" "Here is a flower that to me is worth all that ever bloomed.
"I do know, however, that you are a very interesting one." "I didn't agree to come here to be solved as a problem," she said demurely, but with a mirthful twinkle in her eyes; "I only promised you a sitting for the sake of Mr. Eltinge." "Two sittings, Miss Mayhew." "Well, yes, if two are needful." "By all the nine muses! you do not expect me to make a good picture from only two sittings?"
Oh, my Saviour, I'm half afraid to speak to thee about this." "If I could only see Mr. Eltinge," she murmured, after an hour of distracted thought and indecision. "There is no time to write indeed, I could not write on such a subject, and and I'm afraid he'd advise me against it.
I don't think I could have lived if the sense of terror and despair had lasted. But dear old Mr. Eltinge stood by me in that terrible moment.
Van Berg shall not shield my short-comings," said Ida, with crimson cheeks. "I forgot to ask about Mr. Eltinge. To tell the truth, we were talking of old times. I met Mr. Van Berg here last June and I made a very bad impression on him." "And I at the same time made a worse impression on Miss Mayhew," added the artist.
"I've seen matinee idols, and tailors' supplies salesmen, and Julian Eltinge, but this boy had any male professional beauty I ever saw, looking as handsome and dashing as a bowl of cold oatmeal. And he knew it." Now, in the ten years that she had been out representing T. A. Buck's Featherloom Petticoats Emma McChesney had found it necessary to make a rule or two for herself.
Eltinge, who sat at its foot, became to him one of the world's chief heroes a man who had met and vanquished evil for almost a century. His white hair and silver beard were a halo of glory around the quiet face that was turned in kindly sympathy towards his companion, and Van Berg did his best to bring out the noble profile.
Jesus Christ has said to those who love and trust him: 'Let not your hearts be troubled. He said these words to men who were to suffer all things, and did so, Mr. Eltinge told me. It's just the same as if he said, You don't know, I do; leave everything to me, and it shall all be for the best in the end.
Do you think he is able and willing to keep his word?" "Oh, Mr. Eltinge, how plain you make it all!" "No, my dear; it was made plain centuries ago. You have as much right to your happy feelings as to the sunshine; but never put your feelings in the place of Christ, and trust in them. That's like putting faith in one's gratitude, instead of the friend whose services inspired the gratitude.
