A FIRST-CLASS LOAFER.
A Hindoo baker’s assistant in Bombay, on setting - np in business for himself, bethought him of catering for the English community as well as for the native one. With this end in view, accordingly, he had the following notification painted over his doorway: “Bam Box solicits respectful patronage. lie is a first-class British loafer.” Those people who turn up their noses at the world might do well to reflect that it is as good a world as they were ever in. and a much better one than they are likely ever to get into again.
