REFUSING RICHES. /
Chances For Making Fortunes .Have
Often Been Turned Aside.
It Is not an easy tblug to sa.v "No"
to wealth when It Is offered In hand
fuls. but there are people who have
done It. In the eighties the best known
and most popular actress iu the world,
perhaps, was Mary Anderson, an
American who was as good as she was
beautiful.
At twenty-eight she married and has
never since been tempted out of her
retirement except for a charity per
formance. In the hope of inducing her
to go on the stage again au enterpris
ing American manager offered her
£00.000 for a season of thirty weeks—
a fortune In Itself. The lady refused
Calve was offered £4,000 a week to
go on the vaudeville stage Her work
was to consist of sluging four songs—
two at a matinee and two in the even
ing—which works out at al>out £ir>0 a
song. She also refused.
•lack Binns. who In the early days
of wireless won worldwide fame by
sticking to his post on a sinking liner
and bringing help from the four quar
j ters. was offered fabulous sums to ap
pear on the music hall stage and show
"how It was done." Ills reply was
that he was an electrician and not an
actor. So he "turned down" a for
tune.
Mr Gladstone refused several for
tunes from enterprising publishers. Fie
would only write what he wanted and
when he wanted Browning was the
same.—London Answers.
! SHAKESPEARE AND SLANG.
I Later Day Phrases That Were Used by
the Immortal Bard.
"Good night." a terse ejaculation that
has taken ranking position among the
slang of the day. had Its source in no
less authority than Will Shakespeare.
It took a Hamilton college student to
discover that the magic words were
frequently used in Shakespeare's plays
and with as much variety of meaning
as we have been giving to them.
"The idea that 'good night' has the
m irk of modernity." declares this stu
dent. "Is a sad mistake In act 1.
' scone 3, of the flrst part of "King Hen
j ry IV.' Worcester says he will disclose
a matter of ITotspnr which is as full
of peril 'as to o'erwalk a current roar
ing loud on the unsteadfast footing of
a s|tear." To which Hotspur replies.
•If he fall In. good night.'"
Many other bits of modern vernacu
lar are from Shakespeare, the student
j says, among them "Oo to It!" "You
< heese.'" "1 am for you." "Dead drunk"
I and plenty of others.
And regarding that once very favorite
phrase "Rent It" the student says
this "Every one from a former presi
dent to a newsboy has made use of
these two words. Yer in act 2. scene
1, of 'The Comedy of Errors' Luclaun
exclaims: 'Fie! Beat It hence!' "—Hart
