How the system 0f Tipping Has Dege"er.
ated In Many Eating Houses.
Complaints of the tipping system. OF
rather want of system, are growing more
and more common. 1t is the opinion ct
those who are in the habit Of getting
their meals here and there and patroniZ.
ing the cafes about town that insOlence
anon walters has visibly increased.
Everybody who knows anything about
New York knows what that means-an
exceedingly di,agreeable state of affairs.
The evil is worse in proportion to the
responsibility Of the place" says a man
about town. In other words. the more
expensive the meal the more liberal the
tip. and the more insulting the walters
if it does not come up TO their ideas of
what the mount of the tip should be-"
have been making some personal in
v%estiyations i'll this line myself and IN
hesitatingly indorse the above opinion.
| have found that in every instance the
waiter expected n tip whether he had
served well or not. and that this expecta-
ton is made so BADLY apparent that the
attention of everybody in the vicinity is
called to the fact to bear unwilling wit
ness as To the extent of your liberality.
Also that too small IA tip will subject
you to more pronounced insult that none
at all: that any effort to correct abuse
Of this character by reporting the serv-
ant is more likely To multiply your bad
treatment than to reduce it.
1t the executive clerk or proprietor
does not recognize in You a valuable Gus
toner of the place. the chances are two
to one you will be received with more
contempt than You got at the hands of
the waiter. No one mar in 800 thus Of
Tended ever complains-he simply doesn't
go back. Most city men and travellers
are not easily offended by walters. Fa-
miliar with the ways of the waiter. they
either pay up n ignore the intended Of
Tense. 1t is the sensitive man who is the
more readily blackmailed. or who. re-
sisting the levy. feels more keenly the
insolence of the mental.
In my experiments. conducted at six
different respectable restaurants. l found
that the poorest walters. the men who
gave the poorest service, were the most
offensive. At n place where. at the
suggestion of Il friend interested III this
class of human nature. we Went back &c
the same waiter OH the next day. there
was such a visible reluctance to serv.
us that we Were compelled to call thu
head waiter before we could get any
thing to eat. AS my rule is to reward "a
servant proportionately for extra service
and attention. and AS some of these men
rendered this service and got nothing,
cherish no hard feelings against them
for the look Of cold disappointment with
which they greeted our departure. H.
discriminate tipping has made tipping
useless practically. 50 far AS good service
is concerned. 1t has become merely SC
much blackmail. and the poorest service
demands and receives the same reward
earned by and cheerfully pad the best.
Men are awful towards and would rather
be robbed outright than thought mean.

Repudiates the Platform.

One OF the astonishing things in
the House debate on Friday was the
practical reputation of the Demo
cratic platform by Mr.. Rayner of
Maryland. After declaring for the
unconditional repeal of the Sherman
law and acknowledging that the
Treasury Department had practically
annulled it already he closed his
speech with the remarkable words.
"As for me, in this supreme hour of
my country's needs, l am not blind
ed nor inundated by the glittering
words of convention declarations,
That Is to say, Mr.. Rayner repudiates
the Democratic platform as to
silver. That is what all the Eastern
Democrats do when they take the
position Mr.. Rayher announced in
this speech, but few of them have
the honesty to say as he does frankly
that his position is reputation of

candid admission, and we are glad to
see it made thus early in the fight;
and trust that there will be no mine
ing of words and that all Democrats
who really take the position of Mr..
Rayner and repudiate their own
platform will have the decency and
honesty to admit the fact. Demo
Gratis repudiating Democracy and re
fusing to carry out the pledges which
they acknowledge their party made
in order to win before the people,
presents sight for gods and men.
Mr.. Rayner is to be congratulated
more for his frankness than for his
political integrity. Mr.. Bland does
well to announce that he has no part
or lot among such a set of rascals, -

San Francisco is stirred up upon
the elopement of a young man named
Turner and married woman named
Jameson. They express untold love
for one another, and have no excuse
for their action, except life would be
blank to either one without the
other. which, if true, ought to at
least furnish Mr.. Jameson reason
able grounds for divorce. We might
add that j amieson is fool to chase
Turner with intent to infiict bodily
harm; he should reward Turner
with a medal.
An exchange says that one third
of the country think that they can
beat a lawyer in expounding the law;
one-half of them think that they can

gospel, and all of them think that
they can beat an editor running a
newspaper.

been definitely fixed by the adoption
