The OutIaWed Prunes,

There is no doubt" remarked a
head waiter the other day, that peo-
pie have great hesitancy about ask
ing for prunes in a restaurant. And
yet there are hundreds of people who
would rather eat dish of prunes any
day than strawberries out Of season.
But there have been so many jokes
about the prunes at the boarding
house and about them being cheap
that people seem to think if they
asked for them it will put a plebian
mark on them. Invariably when a
man orders prunes he will tell the
waiter in an apologize tone-and
even then he will say it so low that
no one but the waiter can hear him.
Just watch the next man you see eat
ing dish of prunes in a first-class
restaurant and see if he doesn't keep
glancing around furtively like a man
afraid of being caught stealing some
thing"
