Why His Luck Changed.


A man who thought he saw a good
opening for a restaurant on the main
street of the city in which ne resided
and who had, besides, ideas Of his own
concerning the eating-house business,
rented the lower floor of a building in a
good location, near a prominent corner.
and proceeded to put his theories into
practice, says the Youths Companion.
Although the new place was neat and
attractive, the cooking and service good,
and the prices reasonable, the business
did not flourish as he had hoped. The
patronage was not sufficient to pay ex-
penses.
At the end Of five or six weeks he took
one Of his frequent customers, a prac-
teal business man, into his confidence.
Il can't understand it." he said. 81
am running the best restaurant in this
town. It is well lighted, well ventilated,
everything about the establishment is
as clean as it can be, and yet am los
ing money"
rs your kitchen clean?'' asked the
other.
Absolutely. The cooking is clean and
the cooks are clean. I wish you could
see them at work. wish everybody
could.
Then said his patron, put them
where nobody can help seeing them.
Take that display Of fruits, meats and
game away from your show window in
front, and put your kitchen there. You
have plenty of room. Let all your cook
ing be done in plain view, and III guar
antee there'l be a crowd in front OF
your place all the time
In Jess than week the restaurant
was doing a prosperous business.
