Could
scarcely
sleep
a
wink
through
thinking
of
having
brought
up
Mr.
and
Mrs.
James
from
the
country
to
go
to
the
theatre
last
night
,
and
his
having
paid
for
a
private
box
because
our
order
was
not
honoured
,
and
such
a
poor
play
too
.
I
wrote
a
very
satirical
letter
to
Merton
,
the
wine
merchant
,
who
gave
us
the
pass
,
and
said
,
"
Considering
we
had
to
pay
for
our
seats
,
we
did
our
best
to
appreciate
the
performance
.
"
I
thought
this
line
rather
cutting
,
and
I
asked
Carrie
how
many
p
's
there
were
in
appreciate
,
and
she
said
,
"
One
.
"
After
I
sent
off
the
letter
I
looked
at
the
dictionary
and
found
there
were
two
.
Awfully
vexed
at
this
.
Decided
not
to
worry
myself
any
more
about
the
James
's
;
for
,
as
Carrie
wisely
said
,
"
We
'll
make
it
all
right
with
them
by
asking
them
up
from
Sutton
one
evening
next
week
to
play
at
Bézique
.

In
consequence
of
Brickwell
telling
me
his
wife
was
working
wonders
with
the
new
Pinkford
's
enamel
paint
,
I
determined
to
try
it
.
I
bought
two
tins
of
red
on
my
way
home
.
I
hastened
through
tea
,
went
into
the
garden
and
painted
some
flower-pots
.
I
called
out
Carrie
,
who
said
:
"
You
've
always
got
some
newfangled
craze
;
"
but
she
was
obliged
to
admit
that
the
flower-pots
looked
remarkably
well
.
Went
upstairs
into
the
servant
's
bedroom
and
painted
her
washstand
,
towel-horse
,
and
chest
of
drawers
.
To
my
mind
it
was
an
extraordinary
improvement
,
but
as
an
example
of
the
ignorance
of
the
lower
classes
in
the
matter
of
taste
,
our
servant
,
Sarah
,
on
seeing
them
,
evinced
no
sign
of
pleasure
,
but
merely
said
"
she
thought
they
looked
very
well
as
they
was
before
.

Got
some
more
red
enamel
paint
(
red
,
to
my
mind
,
being
the
best
colour
)
,
and
painted
the
coal-scuttle
,
and
the
backs
of
our
Shakspeare
,
the
binding
of
which
had
almost
worn
out
.
April
27
.
--
Painted
the
bath
red
,
and
was
delighted
with
the
result
.
Sorry
to
say
Carrie
was
not
,
in
fact
we
had
a
few
words
about
it
.
She
said
I
ought
to
have
consulted
her
,
and
she
had
never
heard
of
such
a
thing
as
a
bath
being
painted
red
.
I
replied
:
"
It
's
merely
a
matter
of
taste
.
"
Fortunately
,
further
argument
on
the
subject
was
stopped
by
a
voice
saying
,
"
May
I
come
in
?
"
It
was
only
Cummings
,
who
said
,
"
Your
maid
opened
the
door
,
and
asked
me
to
excuse
her
showing
me
in
,
as
she
was
wringing
out
some
socks
.
"
I
was
delighted
to
see
him
,
and
suggested
we
should
have
a
game
of
whist
with
a
dummy
,
and
by
way
of
merriment
said
:
"
You
can
be
the
dummy
.
"
Cummings
(
I
thought
rather
ill-naturedly
)
replied
:
"
Funny
as
usual
.
"
He
said
he
could
n't
stop
,
he
only
called
to
leave
me
the
Bicycle
News
,
as
he
had
done
with
it
.
Another
ring
at
the
bell
;
it
was
Gowing
,
who
said
he
"
must
apologise
for
coming
so
often
,
and
that
one
of
these
days
we
must
come
round
to
him
.
"
I
said
:
"
A
very
extraordinary
thing
has
struck
me
.
"
"
Something
funny
,
as
usual
,
"
said
Cummings
.
"
Yes
,
"
I
replied
;
"
I
think
even
you
will
say
so
this
time
.
It
's
concerning
you
both
;
for
does
n't
it
seem
odd
that
Gowing
's
always
coming
and
Cummings
'
always
going
?
"
Carrie
,
who
had
evidently
quite
forgotten
about
the
bath
,
went
into
fits
of
laughter
,
and
as
for
myself
,
I
fairly
doubled
up
in
my
chair
,
till
it
cracked
beneath
me
.
I
think
this
was
one
of
the
best
jokes
I
have
ever
made
.
Then
imagine
my
astonishment
on
perceiving
both
Cummings
and
Gowing
perfectly
silent
,
and
without
a
smile
on
their
faces
.
After
rather
an
unpleasant
pause
,
Cummings
,
who
had
opened
a
cigar-case
,
closed
it
up
again
and
said
:
"
Yes
--
I
think
,
after
that
,
I
shall
be
going
,
and
I
am
sorry
I
fail
to
see
the
fun
of
your
jokes
.
"
Gowing
said
he
did
n't
mind
a
joke
when
it
was
n't
rude
,
but
a
pun
on
a
name
,
to
his
thinking
,
was
certainly
a
little
wanting
in
good
taste
.
Cummings
followed
it
up
by
saying
,
if
it
had
been
said
by
anyone
else
but
myself
,
he
should
n't
have
entered
the
house
again
.
This
rather
unpleasantly
terminated
what
might
have
been
a
cheerful
evening
.
However
,
it
was
as
well
they
went
,
for
the
charwoman
had
finished
up
the
remains
of
the
cold
pork
.
