The complaints OF excessive tipping
in New York ought to have one good effect.
They ought TO make it plain to the persons
who dine much at hotels and restaurants
that they need not give 80 much.
Unluckily they are not the chief offenders
in this nrtter The casual visitors to these
places, those who dine there once or twice
week. are more to blame. They spoil
the walters by giving them tips far in eA-
cess Of what they deserve.
There is one good reason why tip given
in restaurant should be larger to-day
than it was ten years ago. The TIP Is now
more than it was then the walters wage,
on which he is expected 10 live. What he
gets in n months salary from the restaurant
would not keep him week
The average pay OF walters in the good
New York restaurants is said to he 80 a
month. With this pay two or three walters
together have to pay the omnibus or boy
who removes the dishes from their table
and helps them serve the meals.
Within the past decade the cost OF living
in New York has materially increased,
Rents in the quarters of the town that
walters are forced to live in have greatly
advanced, and az in the present economic
arrangement the pay of these men falls
on the customers and not on the proprietor
who hires them it is Just that they should
get more than they did.
In the opinion OF many men who should
be competent to Judge they get too much
in the way of tips, The rule of 10 per cent,
for instance, is not followed by one per
son out of twenty,
A dinner costing $50 at Sherry's will
result as a rule in a larger tip than s. for
the waiter He is more likely to get s.
or s.. If the man giving the dinner comes
from the West he will probably give the
waiter $40.
The visitors from out OF town, especially
from the West, have done more than any
other class to spoil walters and make them
expect large fees One hotel much pat
ronized by millionaires from n Western
city has become almost impossible to
New Workers. on account Of the demeanor
of the walters toward those customers
who do not give them as much as they
expect.
The per cent. rule does not always carry
in a small check. The sum Of 10 cents
is too small for any waiter in Sherry's
Delmonicos or the Martin when he has
served a 81 cheok. He will expect IS or
20 cents, and in the ma jority Of cases he
will get it.
For check amounting to 81, 10 cents
is too much in any but the most expensive
pla"es--.0 or Is cents is ample.
For dinner costing $50 any waiter in a
81. The probability is that he would get
more from a person who was only an CO.

or, more properly speaking. church cos

But. with delicate perception of the
propriety and fitness Of things, the fashion,
able woman no longer appears at churcn
in fussy or consIiCuouS costume, but
in one of such simple make and material
as not to attract attention or to throw
into uncomfortable relief the poorer and
palmer clothing OF the less fort una'e.
In remarkable contrast to the plain
gowns and dark colors seen in the CON
gregat ions Of the other fashionable churches
of the city was the briant glow OF color
at the Christ ian Science Church on Ninety
sixth street, where the great auditorium
bloomed like garden in June. with smiling
faces, flower laden hats and bright colOrcd
costumes.
AS the great audience moved to and fro
a wave of delicate Colors swept through
the church as when breeze passes over
summer garden, or a field strewn with wild
flowers, Pink shading into lavender, blue
melting into green, mauve and red and
pearl and brown and gray were there.

gregation who nigh, he saddened by the

there were only smiling peaceful happy
faces to be seen, whether set off byan elab-
crate gown or plain one a flower laden
turban or a faded sailor hat,
For many years the clergy of all the great
cities in the United States have regretted
and deplored the tendency To ovcrdreSS
in the feminine members of their corgrega-
lions, knowing full we'll hat the woman
who is attired in all the agonics of her Sun
day best is In no condition Of mind or body
to profit by serious sermons and spiritual
truths.
The new and elaborate gown (Drobahlv
too tight in the belt, the new gloves uhat
pinch the dainty patent leather ONfords
with high heels that make standing or
kneeing an agony are all very lovely to
look at, but all clergyincn know that they
put religious influence at discount. for
the matron or maid who can rustic into
church in a gown which she knows il the
despair and envy Of every feminine be-
holder. and then settle her mind and
thoughts on sermon or prayer, is but little
below the angels.
To the serious minded individual the dis
play of feminine finery at church has al
ways been distasteful. and the good sense
which has prompted the fashionable women
of New York to lay aside frills and furbc-
lows and put on simple garb to attend
religious services is greatly commended
by them.
The innovation. which was decidedly
noticeable on Easter Sunday this year in
New York, probably has not yet reached
Des Moines When it becomes known in
