oyster Juice without the oysters; stir it
fast: then slip in the oysters for just
moment: then a little cream-cow cream,
add a dash of salt and some red pepper
pink if you have it-and serve hot.
Can you do that?"

every we'll, then, do So"
Then Mr.. Gump picked up copy OF
The Rider and DriUer in which was
short editorial by Mr.. Aston, closing
| with the statement that The Rider and
Dyiper chad come TO stay" and Mr..
Jenkins heard the waiter in the dis
tance give Mr.. Gump's order to the chef
as follows:
ZONE up"
A New Orleans man on the train, who
rms a restaurant at home, says that II
is almost impossible to break walters OF
slang orders when they once get TO go
ing. He has tried it over and over again,
hut a waiter when he has once heard an
order that strikes him as mysterious
and apropos will never quit using 1t.
He will lose his place, forfeit his pay
and the respect OF his employer, but he
will never quit that pet order.
'sSince the big prize fight in New Or
leans we have had some trouble In that
way. Everything was hurrah and ex-
citement there for days and days, and
it broke up everybody good deal.
Many of my walters had small bets up
and they couldn't think OF anything
else. Some made money and others
lost. but the walters are ruined for New
York city work. They can't help it,
though. They are not to blame.
"Give YOUR order now at my place for
rare roast beef, and If you listen close
YOU will hear it go down, Gimme an
upper cut quick"
.If you ask for ham and eggs you get
them, but to the waiter it is simply "A
clinch and break away. Now you know
folks get mighty sick or that, especially
when ladies are along.
eff you ask for steak, rare, for two II
is "a right and left lead l keep the
best and almost the only sausage In New
Orleans that people have confidence in.
I've been years building up this conf
dence. I nave not had dog on tie
Mace for over twenty-three years, and
This has resulted in a childlike faith
among nv customers that is just beau
full To see. Ask for fried sausage now
and you get Three ounce skin tights.
1.-TWO customers left me last week
who have been here for years because
they ordered twk chicken croquettes'
and the waiter sI ICED down the. shute,
Mix it with him 1go times, -.
'If you want bird, and ask for IL
'gamy,' you understand, you'll hear the
order go to the cook, "One'big Teller on
toast and count him out!'
.sWhen you order hash the waiter
GLASSES up to the hollering place and
saws, LET HIM HAVE IT!
81 am going on to New York to see
about a place as second soft boiled egg

He then resumed his paper.
Yesterday l received the following
letter along with sixty-nine others that
were good deal the same. In coupling
nv name with that OF Mr.. Vanderbilt,
nv friend Walter Wellman has thought
lessly opened up field which he VOTED
not of. Mr.. Wellman kindly but
thoughtlessly referred to me in one OF
his letters as neighbor of Mr.. Wander
bilts, which Of course ] am, but that Is
no reason why l should endow home
for sand Founders and people who do
not know enough to ache when they get
hurt. Since the publication OF the letter
eight Young girls have asked me to edu-
cate them. One said that, through no
fault Of hern, her father was doing time
in Kansas jail.
Our house has been broken into twice
also. People think perhaps that we
borrow the Vanderbilt plate when we
have company, but we do not. A picture
of Nancy Hanks which / secured at the
Vatican was taken from the house; also
Roman tear jug which / had been
using since began to build, and which
was nearly full.
People write to Mr.. Vanderbilt, and
II they do not get reply they write to
me to know what is eating him." as
thew tersely express 1t. One old lady
writes me that she wants TO learn TO go
on the stage. She does not say that she
is old, but she unfortunately sends her
photograph. She wants me TO bring her
out. If l will not do it, "How about
George?" she asks.
Her work, she says, is comic. In one
place on her programme she allows an
| intermisslon OF ten minutes In which TO
mt on another dress. l should hope she
did. I would put it right on over the
other one if nature had figured as
closely in dealing with me as she did
with her:
"EAsT BRIDGEwATER, MASS, Nov 1.
"1Ir. Nue-Please excuse the liberty
take in addressing these few lines to
Won. You are q stranger to me, and
still feel as though l was acquainted
with you, or your name, reading and en-
loving YOUR experiences that we read Of
ia the paper. Why, just as sooD as we
get the paper we always look to see
where or what Bill Nye is doing. Some
times he is eating watermelon, some
times he is smiling on snakes, but we
enioy IL lust the same. 1t is hard to
keen track of him, but reading the other
day that he was in Asheville l am trust
ing that ne will stay there until after he
receives this humble letter, for would
like some information. Picking up
the paper the other evening, / read
about YOU being down on your estate,
and of another gentleman that is having
a veritabIe palace built out there In
