His Modest LuncheOnS.

''The ordering of my luncheon used
20 be a great nuisance" said lawyer
yesterday. Il would go into 4 cafe,
perhaps pretty hungry, but two or
tree minutes study of the huge menu
would put me in an uncertain, irrita-
ole mood, and no matter what I'd order
1 wouldn't enjoy it on account of the
thought that l might have ordered
something different and better. 1t was
like going into public library to read.
With SO many books there, it is i'm
possible to sit down and read one book
cOntcntedly, as you can at home. But
now have an arrangement that makes
my luncheon Il joy. l said to my wait
er one day:
"'What l eat here at noon costs me,
on the average, Sl.25, and my average
tip 10 you is 20 cents. Now you ought
TO know what a nice luncheon is better
than do, so l make you this proposal:
Serve me every day n lunch of my
usual number of courses, and whatever
under S1.2J it costs you can keep
'"The waiter jumped ut that. He
brings me every day now Il better meal
than l would think of ordering myself.
anu he makes from 20 to so cents by
keeping down the price. 1t is Il splen
did scheme. and l wonder why never
thought of il before. "-Philadelphia

the same way.
