EVERYBODY WANTS A TIP.
Exr~rience of an American Woman
Rhilc Visiting Venice.

One OF the things that most astonish
you with regard to the working class
Italian is the perfect frankness with
which he shows his desire for n tip.
No false modesty obscures it. You
may sometimes fear that you will for
get it, Let such fears forever rest.
He won't let you. He will follow you,
asking yon if you have your parasol
when he sees it in your hand or If you
know the way out when he has just
told it to you. The whole poor popula-
ton OF Venice is absolutely naif in its
exhibition Of desire for any small
sum Of money the passerby may throw
1t. The children, one and all, make q
demand for soldino as matter of
course. 1t is a sort Of greeting to ev-
ery foreigner casually as phrase of
general usage.
Coming from the bath you fee the
girl who has charge Of the lighthouses.
II you don't she has dozen ways of
making herself disagreeable next time
you come. And do not allay your trou-
bled anticipations by the thought she
may not recognize you. One glimpse
Of face flxes it in her memory for
months. After that you fee the WON
an who takes care of your purse and
iewelry. If you fee her enough she
drags out from some inner recess a
cheap mirror which distcrts your coun-
tenance and allows you to look into it
and see how truly hideous the human
visage can be made to appear. Before
the bath you have to fee the old Won
an who gives you your bathing suit.
II you neglect her the next time you
come she will give you a suit that
does.,"l fit you or is full Of holes.
When you go out on the terrasse for
a black coffee, which costs 10 cents,
you fee the waiter. When you get into
your gondola you fee the old man who
draws 1t close to the steps with hook
ed stick and offers you his withered
old arm to lean on. When you get out
of your gondola at the hotel you fee
another old man with a hooked stick
and a withered arm. And then at din
ner, if you haven't just feed the wait
er he will be cross, and up in your room
afterward If the femme de chambre
has not recently had a tip she will re-
fuse to answer the bell.-San francisco
Argonaut.

Mrs. sutro Posed as st. Cecilia.

From the New York Evening Journal.
Mrs. Theodore Sutro, the beautiful New
York woman, has posed for a remarkable
ture OF st. Cecilia, patron saint Of music.
The reproduction was made by a cele-
brated Fifth avenue photographer and as
a faithful copy of the great painting it is
credited by connoisseurs with being truly
remarkable.
The original OF the Rubens canvas,
which now hangs in the old Museum OF
Berlin, was the first wife of the genius.
Mrs. Sutro's facial esemblanc to the
original of the painting is a striking re-
semblance.
st. .Cecilia is shown at a harpsichord. A
high light streams on her hair and her
uplifted, ecstatic face. In the flood Of light
are four angels, flmy and almost intang-
ible.
This picture is oddly appropriate, per-
haps iE tina st. Cecilia is the patron saint
of music End Mrs. Sutro has given many
years to the promotion of musical inter
ests in America. She is the founder and
organizer of the National Federation of
Musical clubs.
Moreover, Mr.. and Mrs. Theodore sutro
are known as the happiest husband and
wife in New York. Their romance has
never known any waning. Her husbands
hair is white now, but it was only a few
months ago at a reception that Mrs. SUI
tro rendered her guests unique souvenirs
in the form of a book of Mr.. Sutro's let
tiers and poems addressed to the woman
who had not only won his love, but held
1t steadfastly in this age when poor little
Cupid is treated generally with a cyTlicfs1n
that drives him out of many homes.

Miss Pennington, adding, with a

to the engine he placed the starting

valve of the vaporizer, and with one
turn of the crank had the engine going.
Several engine-wise men on the dock
could not restrain their approval.
They passed a b%oathouse on the east
side OF the lake. In front of the boat

stood a a very much bent over and

He would stop occasionally, wipe his

saw the girl passenger.

With a rush the little t%wenty-footer
made for the dock as il it were sure
to run it down, when, swinging the
wheel hard to port and reversing the
propeller, Billy Wiggin brought the
Emerald to a standstill off the end OF
the smaller pier at Renwick. 1t was a
beautifully made landing, and the girl
In the blue yachting suit felt her heart

her hands in admiration. BILLY, made
a lying leap with the painter as the
boat ran alongside, and his companion
aft soon had the stern made fast.

when his eye caught that OF the girl

out his hand.

a dynamo. Warner had already a lead
OF nearly a quarter mile, and for the
first ten minutes the Emerald did not
appear to gain an inch. The girl who
the bow of the Emerald wavered from
side to side, instead of pointing straight
for their bearing. She touched Billy
on the arm, and looking up from the
engine he took in the situation.
Jack" he asked, ST hope you won't
be offended, but would you mind let
ting Miss Pennington take the wheel?"
Sure, I'll take no offence. 1 thought
l was not making a particularly good
job of it" Calamity retiring, he gave
the girl the helm. The effect was
lily back and forth as before, the boat
now kept it's nose to the bearing by
long and gradual curves, and slowly
gained upon the other.
A glance at the boat ahead brought
BILLY" from his reverie, as she seemed
to be still far away. He turned to his
engine and advanced the igniter little
by little, until further movement made
it run slower. Taking a speed indica-
tor from his pocket he found that the
engine was making ESQ revolutions per
minute, and he turned to watch the
boat ahead. Yes, they were gaining
gradually, and Warner had evidently
not become aWarde OF their following
him..
The crowd at Glenwood and the cot
tagers along the lake were now taking
an added interest in the race, as they
recognized h boats. So far as could
be seen Warner was sure to win. al
though the Emerald was slowly gain
ing, but Billy" had another card up
his sleeve, and lifting one of the seats
he turned a valve. The engine at
once gained in revolutions, and
much for Warmers boat, and the En-
erald passed him fifty feet from the
dock, amid the cheers of the onlook-
ers. Warner vas the first to ccngrat-
ulate them, n a number Of "Billy's,'
