REDUCED TO A SCIENCE.

Hotel Mattresses Have a Tipping
 Method That is All Their Own.
 The gentle art of acquiring tips has been reduced to a science by the wait resses of a certain hotel in Clean, N. '. Compared with them, the metropolitan waiter who shuffies the tableware about to let the diner know he has forgotten something seems like a novice.
 The female experts of Clean are far more tactful. When it is time for the finger bowl at the end of the meal the fair attendant gracefully reaches to the center of the table, picks up the bowl and places it before the man she is serving. He starts to dabbIe his fingers therein, then suddenly he spies shin ing bit of metal at the bottom. He takes second look and discovers that it is dime. Then light breaks upon him and he fishes in his pocket for a replica of the coin in the bowl and losses it in.
 But if he fails to think logically and gives expression to his astonishment the damsel at his elbow gives him a hint.
 ''oh," she says, blushing and smiling sweetly, that's just the way-a custom in fact"
 | "Oh," exclaims the man in turn, and plunk goes a coin into the bowl. | When the doors are closed the bowls are collected and placed before the l head waitress. who gathers up the dimes in the presence of her assistants and hands to each her share of the booty. The bowls are refilled and bait | ed once more.
 The head waitress who originated the
 plan says It nets her and her subordi-
 mates much more revenue than would
 otherwise be theirs by just trusting to luck.
 "All men are generous" she explain
 ed, but some are So forgetful. When
 they see the dime in the bowl they have
 no excuse for not remembering, and
 don't know of man who has eater
 here in the years we've worked the
 plan who has forgotten, and l think
 that proves that all men are generous
 really and truly, don't you?''-NeN
