An Exceptional occupatlon.

A Partisan actor who formerly made
a good income in his profession Is now
earning his living as a cab driver. He
has taken this step to spite his di.
vorced wife. Wherever he went she
put a lien on his salary. The actor
found that the only occupation in
which his wife was helpless against
him was cab driving, because he drew
no wages and had to pay for the hire
of the cab. He says he is making q
good living and is quite happy.
