ADVICE TO THE SHIFTLESS
Hard Sense, If Persisted In, Will Otu*
come Hard Luck—Don’t Tell
Tour Troubles.
A very keen politician going
; abroad for an extended tonr ad
vertised for a man to relieve him
| of the smaller worries of travel
ing, says the Londoft Post. He re
duced the applicants to one, and
was about to complete the nego
tiations when the fortunate per
son began to tell him of his ca
reer, his ambitions, opportunities
and misfortunes—agenninehard
luck story. The politician listened
for awhile,and then suddenly in
terposed: “I find that I do not
want you,” and when pressed for
his reason, added: “I never hire
bad-luck people, especially the
kind who talk about it.”
There seems to be an injustice
In this, and there doubtless is.
At the same time this politician
was a judge of men, or he would
not have been a successful politi
cian. Most persons who have
achieved success are obliged to lis
ten to bad-luck stories, despite
their efforts to avoid them. The
main reason the modern merchant
or manager protects himself with
a guard of doorkeepers and ante
rooms is to escape callers who
want to take np his time by nar
ratives of their misfortunes.
Every large center of popula
tion has its army of bad-luck suf
ferers, and among them are men
of education, men who are almost,
but not quite, strong enough to
reach success. Their point of
view is out of compass, their bear
ings are wrong; their attitude is
that some one who has succeeded
must make amends for their own
shortcomings. These unfortun
ates are probably the most hope
less persons in the world—hope
less not so much in their own
ideas as in the possibilities of
their reformation. When a man
places his own inadequacy on ill
luck he is not worth anything to
anybody—not even to himself.
Luck is the tide, nothing more.
The strong man rows with it if it
makes toward his port. He rows
against it if it flows the other
way. Fair or foul, flood or ebb, he
rows. And the world has very lit
tle time to waste on the man who
complains that the tide did not
turn at every bend to suit his
course.
NO TIPS FOR HIS WAITERS.
Hew York Restaurant Man Makes a
Discovery—Then Came a Change
In His System.
“My waiters get very few tips,’*
said a downtown restaurant man,
“and I don’t have to print notices
to my customers that they are not
expected to tip the waiter. It is
really very simple and within the
power of a restaurant manager to
stop the custom if he wants to do
so,” says the New York Times.
“You see, when a customer tips
a waiter regularly he expects to
get extra service or to have his
check scaled down, and the res
taurant is beaten by the game. In
other words, the tipping of wait
ers took money out of mj pocket.
“I said nothing, bnt kept my
eyes open for a few days, and I
saw that it was in handing the
check to the customer that the
waiters got their tips. When
they were doubtful of a man they
actually made him ask for his
check. That observation made it
simple.
“Without a word about tips 1
made a rule that when a cus
tomer was served the waiter
should immediately lay down by
his plate the check for the amount
ordered and change it subsequent
ly if he ordered more. That left
no opportunity for the waiter ts
dumbly suggest that his hand was
open, and it made it easy for the
customer to get away without giv
ing a coin to the man who had
served him.
“In a week tipping had practio
ally ceased in my restaurant and
the checks began to indre^se to
the right size. All paid for what
they got and others increased
their orders as soon as they were
relieved of paying tribute to the
waiter. It worked admirably and
helped my business. Restaurant
men are foolish aot to stop the
tipping Imposition. They can do
It if they want to.”

AN ODD OLD CHARACTER.
Kata, tha Bum boat Woman, Who Haa
Hauntad Washington’a Navy
yard for lorty Tears.
; Kate, the bumboat woman, is
the title applied to an odd oren
ture who has been haunting the
Washington navy yard for the
past 40 years, says the Washing
ton Post. Her name is Kate
Royal, and as far bhlck and further
than the oldest man connected
with the yard eon remember, Kate
has been making her daily trips
with her basket of candy, fruit
and notions to ssll to tho sailors
who visit Washington on Uncle
flam’s boats. Kate has a speaking
acquaintance with all the great
men ef the army and navy. She
has letters and presents from
most of thorn, including Amir ala
Dewey, Sampson and Schley. *
Kate made her first visit to the
yard during the civil war. Bhe
was a yoong woman In those days,
and her bright Irish ways made
her a great favorite. In later
years, when age began to sreep
upon her, she began to form an
opinion that she was an aetlve
and indispensable part ef the
navy. She considered herself an
enlisted person and beoame as de
voted to the eanse as the most
loyal man. It is just 40 yearfe since
i Kate began to consider herself 4
sailor.
She has bad tea red enlistment
■tripes, representing four years
•ach, placed upon a ield of blue
cloth, and this she were to cele
brate the anniversary.
Kate is a pictureuque charac
ter. Her ferns is bowed beneath
the weight of TO years, and her
face is seamed with the marks of
time. Only her eyee still retain
the brilliancy of youth, and they
sparkle with the dame Irieh hu
mor and good nature that
gleamed from them 40 years ago.
Kate hae no regular hears of
business. She is on hand with the
rising sun, and the late hours of
; the evening iad her still on duty.
She gathem her little stock of
trade around her under the fore
castle of one of the United States
boats lying up at the yard, and
with the sails? boys lying aronnd
her on the floor she will tell them
tales of her youth or crone Irish j
melodies for them until the signal
for lights out is passed around,
' and the sailors seek their swing
[ ing hammocks, and Kate sboul
ders her basket of goods and wan
ders home.
HERO AND THE TOOTHACHE
Remarks Thman by a Disillusioned
Girl—He Had Faced Death
at Santiago.
“I used to be given to heto
| worship,” said the girl with
! the Russian sable muff to
her companies of the long, dark
eyelashes, aocording to the New
| York Bun. “Bnt, dear, we change.
| do we not? Do you recall how I
spent the last of my pin money to
attend a reception that the slub
arranged for a oertaia here?
“Well, the week before laat I
was coining up from Palm Be-aeb.
Oa the train was a hero who had
withstood a dose® hostile f ree at
Santiago. He had a teothaehe, a
simple little teotkaeka, and ke bel
lowed like a calf. I tbongkt of the
five teeth that I bad pulled oat la
one afternoon without gna and
aakod myself if the man was real
ly brave. I decided that a kero

the ordinary mortal merer
dreamed of.
“One of tho train hands who
sympathised with tho hero said:
■The best thing for a toothache is
whisky. If I had one I’d fill up’—
aad he did. I mean my hero, that
was, did. Don’t talk to meia fu
ture hero worship. Faeinp
death may be one thing, but I’d
rather face death than be afraid
of a toothache. Have a bon boD ?”
"Radium Sirup.”
A practical joke, now common
among Parisians, is to go into a
drug store and ask for three coats’
worth of radium. At first ths
chemists took it good-naturedly,
but latterly It has become quite s
nuisance. One chemist in tbs
Roe 4e Riveii has just hit spea a
way of getting even with the
would-be jokers. He has made a
coneoctiee which hs calls “radium

joker arrives gravely bands oat a

A “SHOWERPROOF" CLOTH.
German* Treat Ordinary Materials
with Petroleum—Curious Aquatic
Displays in Tailors' Windows.
It has usually been thought
that rubber was about the only
substance which would render
cloth waterproof, although oil silk
is coated with another one, a prep
aration of linseed oil. However,
“Showerproof” cloth is known as
that which repels water very
largely aDd yet remains porous,
appearing in all respects like or
diary wetable cloth. The method*
of treatment of such cloth are
often trade secrets, and even the
patent specifications do not di-;
▼ulge all that must be done to
achieve a satisfactory result.
“Petroleum,” a German period
ical, says that the oil to whidh
that paper owes Its name is one of
the most successful showerproof
preparations. It says that the
only reliable shower proof is ob
tained by impregnating the cloth
outside and in with a fine film of
waxes. Paraffin wax is the staple,
but owing to its low melting point
It is not fit for use alone. The com
position used hr so alloyed with
other waxes and chemicals thatat
the boiling point of water the was
stands firm. A rather elaborate
preparatory form must be gone
through, and after the wax has
been applied a finishing process Is
required. The interesting fact re
mafna f if tsi nnf haIaiiim fT» n •
keeps ont the wet. In tailors’ win
dows in Germany many aquatic
displays have been arranged to
show that cloth can mysteriously
be made to exhibit the power of
the duck’s back. Wool, cotton,
silk, linen, velvets, braids, and
even sails, awnings and tent
cloths are thus wrapped in an In
visible film of rock oil.
PHYSICAL CONSCIOUSNESS.
Th* Brain In Certain States ef Activ
ity Can Act on the Organic
Functions.
“Cenestliesia” is the name given
to the general feeling we have of
the existence of onr owa bodies,
says the London Globe. This
sense of existence is chiefly owing
to accidental and local impres
sions awakening or stimulating
the sensibility, bat it is completed
by a oertain obvenae oonoeious
ness of the exercise of the organic
functions, for example, respira
tion. It is by this sensation that
the spiritual Ego perceives itself
existing locally in the limited ex
tent of the organism. In perfect
health this feeling is continuous,
uniform, and equal, and therefore,
not special or local. In order to be
remarked a certain exaltation of
well-being or distinct uneasiness
Is required. In the hypnotio state
certain subjects have a mors or
less distinct perception of their
internal organs and can exert oer
tain action over them. In fact,
they can modify at will all the
functions of the “vegetative* life,
for instance, the beating of the
(mart Tli« fa/>t aim tv a that tlu
brain in certain states of activity
can act on the organic function*.
If there is a nervosa current from
the brain to the organs there is
also, perhaps, a oontrary current
from the organs to the brain. Dr.
Cromer, Liebault, and ©them,
maintain that some hypnotic sub
jects perceive their internal ©*
gans, and even those ©f other pea
sons with whom they are in hyp
notic relations.
iBunertelles.
The manufacture of immortelle
wreaths in Paris occupies at least
1,500 persons. The immortelles
are gathered abont the beginning
of October, and come chiefly from
the arid hills in the middle and
south of Prance. They are
brought te the markets in their
natural condition, and the yellow
blossoms are dyed green, red and
white, and woven into wreaths by
•pecial workmen In readiness for
All Raia+s’ and All Souls’ days,
when all good Parisians visit their
relatives’ graves. On these “fetes
des morts” the gates of the cerae !
teries are beset with crowds of
dealers in immortelle wreaths,
wire crosses and bead crowns.
At Pere la Chaise alone more tha*
200.000 persons are calculated t»
visit the cemetery, and the sale of
Immortelle wreaths varies from
10.000 to 25,000.—Golden Penny.

The Gause Chapter U. D. C.,
has been successful in bringing
to Newport a course of high class
attractions, the first number of
which will be the Royal Hun
garian Court Orchestra, whose
repertoire consists of compo
sitions of such masters as Ross
ini, Wagner, Abt, and others no
less renowned.
That the people of our commu
nity have presented to them the
opportunity of hearing such mu
sic, much credit is due the work
of the local chapter and their in
terest in introducing such talent
to Newport music-lovers, should
prove not only a financial suc
cess to the chapter, but a benefit
to the patrons as well.
The Hungarian Orchestra will
be heard at the Newport opera
house October 27th, and will, no
doubt, be greeted with a crowded
house.
The noted ac4or, Mr. Frederick
Warde, will also appear later,
delivering one of his well known
lectures.
