Alfred E. Smith used to enjoy showing visitors to New York, and the Empire State Building.

One day, while leading a group, he had to cope with a woman who continually asked irrelevant questions.

Smith answered all of them patiently, but when toward the end of the tour, while going down in the elevator, the lady asked:

“Suppose the elevator cables would break, would we go up or down?†The ex-governor could stand it no longer.

“That, my dear woman,†he snapped, “depends entirely upon the kind of life you’ve been leading.â€
