King Edward disburses a good deal
OF money in tips every year. Each
visit to one Of his subjects costs him
from $1,000 TO $4,000. At shooting
parties the gamebeaters get SIS each
and the g-amekeepers $25 or $50 each.
When he goes abroad he does still
better. On the occasion Of his recent
visit to the kaiser he gave away near.
ly $4,000 in this way. When the car
visited England he left behind a check
for $4,000 to be distributed among
servants who attended him.
