Rich Youth--“I should not object to the work of earning my own living if I had to, but what I should hate would be the officiousness and petty tyranny of superiors. I should hate to have to bow to the whims of some wealthy man not a bit better than myself.” Poor Youth--“That’s easily avoided. Be a typewriter, as I am. Employers never put on airs over me. I know how to take the starch out of em.” “Eh? What do you do?” “Ask em to spell a hard word now and then.” THE NEWS OF ALL NATIONS. Blames Cat for Loss of Ship. Captain Roland F. Quillen, of Bethel, Va., whose three-masted schooner _William J. Quillen_ was sunk off Cape Hatteras after a collision with the Norwegian steamship _Laly_, never again will take a cat to sea. He attributes the accident, which nearly cost his life and the lives of his crew, to a gray cat which he had aboard. “I’ve shipped for twenty-five years and always have taken along dogs,” Captain Quillen said. “Just before I started from Baltimore for Mayport, Fla., somebody stole my dog. So I got a cat--a gray cat. Cats are bad luck, I guess. This was my first accident. The cat was lost.” Turn Funeral Coach into a “Tango Car.” The dead business is dead in Atlantic City, N. J. This is the conclusion of the management of the Atlantic City & Shore Fast Line after six months’ experiment in specializing in the dying business. A half year back they went to considerable expense to have a finely equipped trolley, twice the size of the ordinary cars, constructed to carry funeral parties to the cemetery on the mainland. At the expiration of the six months they found the car a dead loss. Work was started at once to make it a paying proposition. It is being dismantled and will be transformed into a “tango car.” The conveyance will have the central seats removed, a fine maple floor will be put down and waxed. Then it will be put in special service to carry gay parties to the country clubs on the mainland. They can tango their way over and back again; in fact, never stop tangoing from the time the car starts out from its station. “There’s more than one way of making ends meet,” declare the officials.
