youth who has imbibed more than his
per capita share Of beer, comes careening
up for a sandwich of SOLDERING properties
and the ancient FOUNDERS knows the
medicinal value Of this diet from long
years of experience.
All the sandwiches sold from the lunch

When asked what brought the lunch
wagons into existence, Mr.. Low paused In
bisecting a chicken and pOndered
well, l suppose it was the necessity
for some sort of service where a man
could get a good sandwich in a short
time for a fair price. In the first place,
the restaurants are not catering to a 5
and 10 cents trade, and then again they

MOI the least honored of the names
tnat nave gone down to posterity are
tnose OF men who have risen to fame and
power through their ability to create
eplcurean dishes that tickled the
palate and banished all care and worry
More than once kings have made cooks
their favorite and the chef in his kitch-
en- mas monarchy more absolute than
that of the most despotic sovereign of the
orient. The power of the cook is made
evident every night in ST. Paul on the
dl1erent downtown corners of the city,
where little houses are perched precari-
ously upon four wheels, out of which
there float appetizing doors.
These are merely lunch wagons, in
which white-coated man stands over
a tiny y nge dexterously tossing ham
and sandwiches into the air, while the
customer waits on the sidewalk en-
thralled and hungry. From o'clock in
the evening until the new day has good
start there is constant stream of these
wagons and from them they go MUNICH
ing one of the many kinds of sand
wlches that have been developed until
they top the highest pinnacle of culinary
art Rich and poor, fashion and rags
meet at the lunch wagon on the com.
mon basis of five cents for an egg sand
witch, and the man III the dress suit and
the bootblack nondescript eat their
purchase TO the last onion with the
same satisfaction and contentment.
The raison detre of the lunch wagon
as given by the genius who presideq
within is that man is in a hurry all the
time, and is hungry the greater part Of

sandwich, which can be purchased for
III cents. Others may go in for ham
burger sandwiches, and even some tor
oyster sandwiches but these are con-
sidered by the ''shines" to be the ire
negatives of the dilettanti.
The dean of the profession in St. Paul
is Andrew P. Low, who for the past
twelve years has had his wagons night
ly on the street, handing out morsels to
the hungry passersby. Andrew is the
tavor1te of the newsboys, and they con-
gregate around one of his three wagons
every night, clamoring for their supper
with their professional voices Andrew
knows them all by name. and each one
gets little larger piece of ham or an
extra onion thrown in, with a CHEEKY in
curry as to how many papers they sold
on now badly they were stuck bv
the days transactions on the street.
During the years he has been attending
to Tie wants of the hurrying public, Mr.
Low has seen newsboys grow up and
become citizens Of worth in the com,
munfty, while their places were i'm
mediately filled by new recruits with the
commercial instinct
AS the theater hour draws near the
class of trade that patronizes the lunch
wagon changes. The newsboys have
all slipped away to wherever they sleep,
and the theater-goer begins to appear
with his hunger for a sandwich Like
everything else, the lunch wagon has

the time, and from this has risen another
subdivision, the itinerant restaurant,
which, consists of two large cans that
are carried on the arms These are the
"hot tamale' and "chickensandwich'
men, whose lusty voices continually rise
above the roar of the street traffic and
the clang of the car.
There are an even dozen of the lunch
wagons in st. Paul and each one has it's
clientele Of patrons who regularly come
during the hours of the night for their
favorite sandwich. They sell nothing
but sandwiches, but there are enough
of these sold in st. Paul to demonstrate
that pie is no longer the national edible
There may be many devotees that wor-
ship at the shrine of the apple and Gus
tard, but the new cult of sandwich has
had an unparalleled growth, as can be
seen by watching the pilgrims that
nightly ajourn to their Mecca, the lunch
wagon.

The sandwich has some spectacular
features that the pie has not and this
perhaps is one reason for the refOrma-
ton. The speed with which it is com
pounded is one of the delights of its
followers, who nightly watch it thrown
into the air and cleverly caught on the
skillet. A lunch. car man would scorn to
IuTu dn egg over TIE way nOtn6r does
with a ladle When he considers that
the egg is properly finished on one side.
he seizes the skillet, and with the move
ment of a lacrosse player, jerks the egg
high in the air, where it turns around a
couple of times invariably coming down
right side up.
To the weary wayfarer of the streets
this is indeed a pleasing sight, second
only to the sensation of the actual con
sumption. The sandwiches are always
generous in size, and nothing but The
best is used in their construction Frills,
IN the shape Of small onions or pickles
are always added, and these with the
piping hot delicacy, make a tempting
lunch.
About o'clock every night, each lunch
wagon is surrounded by a crowd of news
boys and bootblacks, who long ago
learned that their nickel or dime can
not be expended to any better purpose
than in purchase of a sandwich. The
tastes Of the gamins are simple rising
to no higher flights than a ham and egg

for the INSCRIPTIONS shopkeeper, who
palms off all sorts of unstable rubbish
upon her because, forsooth, it is i'm
ported and has been reduced. The same
sort of a farce is enacted in some mil
linery shops where the hats are shown
upon some young and pretty model, and
madame buys at once, little thinking Of
the violent contrast formed by her sallow
complexion and the delicate pink and
white skin of the shopgirl. Nor does she
stop to consider how artistically the
pretty milliner's hair is arranged; she
buys the hat, and only realizes when too
late her mistake. So it is with gowns;
a little forethought, or even serious study
as to tints, times and seasons for wear
ing the garments, and the problem would
soon solve itself, and become a pleasure
to the woman who thoroughly compre-
hends her own artistic possibilities.
