TRAVELLING WITHOUT TIPS.

German Hotel Keeper Puts His The
DRY Into Practice.
Herr Grauer, a wealthy German no
tel proprietor, has carried out an ex-
pertinent with amusing results on the
tipping custom, says the London Mail.
He had theory that all hotel en-
ployes should be paid a living wage,
and that tipping should be abolished in
hotels.
So he started, accompanied by his
wife and daughter (the Lausanne corre-
spondent writes) on three weeks tour
of the chief German and Swiss hotels,
determined not to spend sou on tips,
In order to test his opinions.
One weeks experience Of the conse-
daughter, who returned home disap-
pointed and indignant with Herr Grau-
err for the discomfort and insults to
which he had led them.
Mysterious hieroglyphics and secret
signs-known only to hotel employees
announced the arrival of the Grauers-
1.-THE non-tlppers"-at the various re-
sorts they visited. The result was al
ways the same-nobody seemed to want
them.
At the stations they were told tina.
the particular hotel where they wished
to stay was full; the hotel omnibus
was merely waiting for a few old eli
ents to depart" When they insisted on
entering the omnibus there was nobody
to carry their luggage, and railway
porters had to be employed and paid.
Arriving at the hotel, their heavy bag
gage was tremendously thrown on
the ground and the boxes were dam.

d'hote the Grauers were always served
with the last portion. The concierge
did not know" Of any interesting
trips in the neighborhood, and was gen.
orally busy" when they descended to
the hall. Complaints to the manager
were futile.
Herr Grauer, who persevered with
his three weeks tour to Its unpleasant
end, sums up his experiences as in
Guiding the following:
Lost three trains; luggage unable to
be found.
Had four pairs Of boots, two being
new, ruined; "cause unknown"
Two suits Of clothes. one dress, three

HOW MEXICAN DISHES ARE MADE
Chile Pepper and Garlic Enter Large
ly Into Old Spanish Recipes.

Chile Pepper and Garlic Enter Large
ly Into Old Spanish Recipes.
In the preparation Of nearly all
Mexican or Spanish dishes the chief
ingredient is the indispensable chile
pepper, says the Denver Times. This
pepper can be obtained at nearly all
large grocery stores. However, there
is a chile powder preparation which is
almost as good as the pepper, much
less difficult to use and not SO expen-
sive. The peppers are dried when
bought. Before they can be used they
must be boiled in water for ten min
utes. The skin and seeds then may
be easily removed, for only the inside
pulp is used. Mexicans flavor their
sauces and meats with a garlic, but
all onion may be substituted when
there is an objection to the garlic
flavor. Here are some Of the most
noted Mexican dishes, with genuine
recipes for their preparation:
Prepare any fish suitable for baking
in the usual manner and stuff it with
|
small amount Of garlic. When the fish
is nearly cooked, pour over 1t sauce
made Of two cups Of chopped ripe to-
matoes, a tablespoonful of butter, salt
to taste, and the pulp Of two chile
peppers.
Melt tablespoonful of butter in a
chatting dish. When we'll heated add a
tablespoonful of Mexican pepper pulp,
half tablespoonful of mustard and
little salt To this add a half pound
Of cheese cut in small pieces. When
the cheese Is melted stir In slowly
three or four tablespoonfuls of milk,
and then add one beaten egg. The
mixture should be stirred constantly
while cooking. When sufficiently
thickened, serve on small squares of
| toasted bread.
Heat little olive oil in a frying
pan or chatting dish. Chop fine the
meat of two or three tomatoes and a
green pepper and season with a half
spoonful of salt and the pulp Of one
chile pepper. Place this in the frying
pan or chatng dish and add two beat
en- eggs; fry until the eggs are solid
and serve while hot.
Two pounds Of raw beef chopped
fine, one small onion or Glove or garlic
chopped fine, two tomatoes strained
tablespoonful Of chile powder or chile
pepper pulp. Fry the meat, tomatoes
and chopped onion or garlic with two
tablespoonfuls of suet until cooked
through. Then place In a stew ket
tie with about a quart Of water and
boil one half hour To this may be
added pint of Mexican beans which
have been soaked over night and boil.
