Tips in France and Am ericn.

The trouble over "tips" in American
hotels and restaurants would be largely
obviated if the European system of per-
centaRes prevailed here. No Frenchmaa
pays extravagantly for the excellent meals
he gets in Paris, but as every Frenchman
pays something the waiter is satisfied. All
over Europe IL is the custom to give the
waiter gratuity amounting to one
twentieth Of the bill that he presents. He
gets five cent tip for 81 meal. Here
man ia often expected to pay twenty five
cent tip for q seventy-hve cent meal, par
tioularly when he gets it in summer hotel,
In America the tips are large, the retu ns
indifferent. In Europe a small but fixed
gratuity secures the best of service. The
European waiter IL not paid by the land
lord. He often pays for his place.
