fore her in a restaurant has passed, SO
tar as this town is concerned at any
rate. She doesn't consider it necessary
when her young mar is along with her
to just peck skimpily at a salad or some
thing like that to show him what q
s%pirituelle, aesthetic nature she possess
es. We used to get hordes of girls like
that-girls that you could tell by their
general expression were nothing short
OF ravenous for a good, square meal,
but who, in conformity with the ses-
thetic idea, would only make little
dabs and pokes at the stuff their escorts
ordered for them and then probably 90
home and consume all the cold stuff
they could rake out Of the refrigerator.
"The average girl that comes in here
now, however, eats just about as much
again as the male person along with
her. She tells the man frankly that
she's starved and that she wants solids
and q whole lot Of them, and she goes
at the dishes set before her like a hired
man after a hard day of harvesting.
I've got any number Of young women
customers who make nothing Of getting
away with a bakers dozen Of big fried
oysters at a sitting, and there are not
many men who do that. A very dainty
looking, slender young woman came in
here yesterday, her beau along with her,
and she used up five good sized lamb
chops with trimmings in a fashion that
was delightful to see.a A healthy, nor

In addition to the Tenth Pennsyl.

given one of the best regiments from
New York, a crack regiment from.
Ohio and one from Michigan, and a
fifth from Illinois. One regiment from
Minnesota has already been ordered to
