THE TIPPING QUESTION.
How It Is Practiced at Home and Abroad
and the Need For "a Reform.

How It Is practiccd at Home and Abroad
and the Need For "a Reform.
The question Of tipping seems
small enough in detail but rather i'm
portant when exaggerated.
A woman who spens last winter in
one Of the most sumptuous of New York
hotels says she invariably gave q quar-
ter to her waiter at breakfast and lunch
con, those being meals taken alone. At
dinner time she was joined by her hus-
band, who always handed the servitor
90 cents.
The latter sum seemed to evenly fill
the mans idea Of what was due him,
and his THANK you, sirl" was bland
and gracious, bat the lGdy's modest
quarters always found their grave in
the black waistooat pocket, with no ex-
preston Of gratitude from the recipi-
ent's face, which wore q meaning look,
as Of one who says, Women arc mean,
an never knows 'ow to do the right
thing by man, but ono as to put up
with em. "
1t is only in reckless, good natured
America that optional fees are so much
larger than they ought to be. A dollar,
which is "a common enough sum for a
man to give at dinner in fashionable
restaurant, woald make a French watt
er stare, although he would have the
presence of mind TO pocket it quickly.
In Paris there is an unwritten scale
which apportions per cent on the
amount Of a customers bill as q tip.
Thus a person ordering dinner that
costs 81 would, on settling his bill, add
10 cents for the attendant.
1t is time we had either a legal CT in
formal rule governing tips in this coun-
try, and it is to be hoped that some rich
persons will help on the reform.
1t will never DO done by those whose
means are really small enough to feel
the tax, for it is one of the errors Of tho
impecunious TO feel obliged 80 show as
much liberality as a millionaire, even
if, like the guest in "Charley's Aunt, "
he has to borrow half dollar from the
butler with which to tip him.-Illus-
trated American.

Plucising Fowls.

Plucking fowls may be easily and
quickly accomplished in this way: AS
soon as the bird is dead immerse it in a
pail Of very hot water, the water to COW
er all the feathers. One minute is usu-
ally long enough to keep the fowl undcr
hot water. Too long soaking is liable to
discolor the skin. After this hot bath
the feathers are so lcosencd that they
can be almost rubbed of. Tho bird is
then rinscd in cold water and wiped
with soft cloth. 1t should then be put
into cotton bag kept for this purpose
and hung in a cool place. When fowls
are not to b. used at once, they should
always be loosely rolled in cloth or pa.
per to keep them from turning dark.
Ducks canDct he managed IL this way,
as their feathers contain so much oil

They are filled with indignation at
the Pyle organization. and they want
a yindication, for their bloods at fever
heat; now, Of all the aggravation that
has come upon the nation, without any
provocation, this thing surely can't be
beat,
We hear an imprecation followed by
an implication. that betokens aberra-
tion Of the Addicks line of thought;
'tis a terrible sensation, once to get a
nomination, then to find, with conster-
nation, that a county can't be bought.
They were sure of their position; but
the willy opposition worked the game
with such precision that Il gave them
all shock. What was only supposi-
ton, called forth Hanby's disquisition,
and Frank Allee's submission in ten
minutes by the clock
Not getting a concession, they went
off in a procession, filled with woe and
sad depression, and they organized a
rump. A physicians consultation, and
a hotels sequestration, followed by
some legislation, ended in an awful
slump.
There, i'm mock deliberation, they
have found the true equation, but they
work without cessation for at least
three days week; they are working
with decision, headed by a good physi-
clan, and advance the proposition that
it's more than Addicks cheek.
Taking rules of revolution; vested
rights and evolution money spent in
mad pollution, there is nothing we

who find it difficult to understand why,

saved had we possessed the autographs

urably is the educated man, and espe-
cially tho scientific investigator, raised
above the Gavage simply as the result OF
his own effortsl
Is it not possible that no who gave
the word Of life designs to quicken our
interest in it by arousing afresh in each
successive generation of Christians the
desire to approach nearer to its sources,
TO remove the undergrowth of legend
