war of 1872 This sword was used by
her father during the Civil War.

Restaurant Men Who Cater to Them
Soon Become Rich.
That the restaurant business in Berlin
is Z paying one, if the location chosen
be a good one, the restaurant of the zoo
logical gardens here shows. For a num-
Der of years it was leased by man who
understood about as much of the bust
ness as the man in the moon. Yet he
became wealthy within a few years and
retired for good to live on the interest
of his money. There were days in sum-
mer when he sold 1000 kegs of beer,
besides some 10000 cups of coffee and
90, eco sandwiches, and as prices are
high there he must have made thousands
of dollars in a single day.
Fortunately for the public. another
caterer now supplies the hungry and
thirsty sightseers at the geological gar
dens, a man with good reputation, and
he pays twice the rent for the restau-
rant buildings, too-viz, 100, 900 marks
per annum. besides spending by the
terms of his contract matter of almost
500, 900 marks for improvements. Yet it
is probable that he, teo, will retire at
the end of his term with a fortune
There are many instances of this kind
in Berlin One of the finest and most
highly priced restaurants on Unter den
Linden recently sold its good will for n
matter of 200, coo marks. The owner
of a cafe on Friedrichstrasse who start
ed the place but couple of years ago is
reputed already to have cleared about
2,OOO, 900 marks. His head waiter is
himself rapidly growing rich from the
