RESTAURANTS FREE LIST.
sam Frnncisco-In Washington
You Get Fruit.

The restaurants of every city have
their own peculiarities in respect TO
the dishes which they furnish q GUS
toner free. regardless of what is or
dered Some are known for their gem
crosby and others for their stinginess.
Every restaurant has its so-calied free
list, and this varies IN the different
cities according to the cost at which
extras may be given. In San Fran
cisco it is the custom to offer a
diner a plate OF shrimps, although his
order may call for no heavier meal
than coffee and toast. In New York
potatoes are on the free list, and
sometimes a plate Of bread. Restaur-
ant patrons at Washington receive
extras in the way of fruit, according
to its season, but in Boston the diner
pays more completely for everything
he eats than is exacted in any other
city in the country. The apples which
are free in Washington restaurant
he must pay for here, says the Boston
Advertiser; the plate of bread which
is unchanged in New York is placed
ON his bill for five cents, and his poLa-
toes, which are the only exception to
the general rule, are gratis only with
good sized orders.
Boston restaurant men explain the
existing situation in the fact that they
purchase the best quality Of goods to
be found, and that the free list IN
other cities always consists Of food
that cost the restaurant proprietor
practically nothing. The Boston man
pays for all that he gets, but the
fact that dyspepsia is less prevalent
here than in other cities should make
the restaurant diner happy with his
