Now
,
sonny
,
"
he
said
,
with
gentle
grimness
,
"
you
and
me
will
have
an
Art
to
Art
talk
.
You
've
got
your
art
and
I
've
got
mine
.
Yours
is
the
real
Pierian
stuff
that
turns
up
its
nose
at
bock-beer
signs
and
oleographs
of
the
Old
Mill
.
Mine
's
the
art
of
Business
.
This
was
my
scheme
,
and
it
worked
out
like
two-and-two
.
Paint
that
president
man
as
Old
King
Cole
,
or
Venus
,
or
a
landscape
,
or
a
fresco
,
or
a
bunch
of
lilies
,
or
anything
he
thinks
he
looks
like
.
But
get
the
paint
on
the
canvas
and
collect
the
spoils
.
You
would
n't
throw
me
down
,
Carry
,
at
this
stage
of
the
game
.
Think
of
that
ten
thousand
.
"
"
I
ca
n't
help
thinking
of
it
,
"
said
White
,
"
and
that
's
what
hurts
.
I
'm
tempted
to
throw
every
ideal
I
ever
had
down
in
the
mire
,
and
steep
my
soul
in
infamy
by
painting
that
picture
.
That
five
thousand
meant
three
years
of
foreign
study
to
me
,
and
I
'd
almost
sell
my
soul
for
that
.
"
"
Now
it
ai
n't
as
bad
as
that
,
"
said
Keogh
,
soothingly
.
"
It
's
a
business
proposition
.
It
's
so
much
paint
and
time
against
money
.
I
do
n't
fall
in
with
your
idea
that
that
picture
would
so
everlastingly
jolt
the
art
side
of
the
question
.
George
Washington
was
all
right
,
you
know
,
and
nobody
could
say
a
word
against
the
angel
.
I
do
n't
think
so
bad
of
that
group
.
If
you
was
to
give
Jupiter
a
pair
of
epaulets
and
a
sword
,
and
kind
of
work
the
clouds
around
to
look
like
a
blackberry
patch
,
it
would
n't
make
such
a
bad
battle
scene
.
Why
,
if
we
had
n't
already
settled
on
the
price
,
he
ought
to
pay
an
extra
thousand
for
Washington
,
and
the
angel
ought
to
raise
it
five
hundred
.
"
"
You
do
n't
understand
,
Billy
,
"
said
White
,
with
an
uneasy
laugh
.
"
Some
of
us
fellows
who
try
to
paint
have
big
notions
about
Art
.
I
wanted
to
paint
a
picture
some
day
that
people
would
stand
before
and
forget
that
it
was
made
of
paint
.
I
wanted
it
to
creep
into
them
like
a
bar
of
music
and
mushroom
there
like
a
soft
bullet
.
And
I
wanted
'em
to
go
away
and
ask
,
'
What
else
has
he
done
?
'
And
I
did
n't
want
'em
to
find
a
thing
;
not
a
portrait
nor
a
magazine
cover
nor
an
illustration
nor
a
drawing
of
a
girl
--
nothing
but
the
picture
.
That
's
why
I
've
lived
on
fried
sausages
,
and
tried
to
keep
true
to
myself
.
I
persuaded
myself
to
do
this
portrait
for
the
chance
it
might
give
me
to
study
abroad
.
But
this
howling
,
screaming
caricature
!
Good
Lord
!
ca
n't
you
see
how
it
is
?
"
"
Sure
,
"
said
Keogh
,
as
tenderly
as
he
would
have
spoken
to
a
child
,
and
he
laid
a
long
forefinger
on
White
's
knee
.
"
I
see
.
It
's
bad
to
have
your
art
all
slugged
up
like
that
.
I
know
.
You
wanted
to
paint
a
big
thing
like
the
panorama
of
the
battle
of
Gettysburg
.
But
let
me
kalsomine
you
a
little
mental
sketch
to
consider
.
Up
to
date
we
're
out
$
385.50
on
this
scheme
.
Our
capital
took
every
cent
both
of
us
could
raise
.
We
've
got
about
enough
left
to
get
back
to
New
York
on
.
I
need
my
share
of
that
ten
thousand
.
I
want
to
work
a
copper
deal
in
Idaho
,
and
make
a
hundred
thousand
.
That
's
the
business
end
of
the
thing
.
Come
down
off
your
art
perch
,
Carry
,
and
let
's
land
that
hatful
of
dollars
.
"
"
Billy
,
"
said
White
,
with
an
effort
,
"
I
'll
try
.
I
wo
n't
say
I
'll
do
it
,
but
I
'll
try
.
I
'll
go
at
it
,
and
put
it
through
if
I
can
.
"
"
That
's
business
,
"
said
Keogh
heartily
.
"
Good
boy
!
Now
,
here
's
another
thing
--
rush
that
picture
--
crowd
it
through
as
quick
as
you
can
.
Get
a
couple
of
boys
to
help
you
mix
the
paint
if
necessary
.
I
've
picked
up
some
pointers
around
town
.
The
people
here
are
beginning
to
get
sick
of
Mr.
President
.
They
say
he
's
been
too
free
with
concessions
;
and
they
accuse
him
of
trying
to
make
a
dicker
with
England
to
sell
out
the
country
.
We
want
that
picture
done
and
paid
for
before
there
's
any
row
.
