head almost as unceasngly as when the sun shines or the fog wraps round. Men and men wearily walking, sometimes because they have nowhere to go, sometimes because their work keeps them late at night and sends them forth early in the morning, sometimes because they are returning from that long quest in search of labor the story of which is written in their dejected countenances and their Respondent, bent shoulders; but the stream drives and the trans roll by till one o'clock in the morning, and while some in East London sleep, many wake
 But we are bound for some of the lodging houses in of the very worst streets in that densey populated quarter; streets that have the unsavory reputation of being the scene of some of Jack the Ripper's murders; streets that have been the plague spot of the police, the puzzle of phanthropsts. the death of the city missionaries We turn away from the main thoroughfare down of the dark side alleys, and then by the open doors and the lights we can see that we have come to the land of the doss houses, as they are called where a cheap bed can be had for few pence. Night seems hardly to have begun, though it is late The downstair rooms are still full of men and women whose occupation seems to be one constant passing in and out of the dirty kitchen to shufie across the street through the open doors of the saloon, and here you find the secret of London's degradation. There among that wretched crowd herded in these lodging houses, men and women who have known days far different from their present surroundings. lneSG even have been ministers of religion. Some of these have known good homes and re- fined surroundings, but the gaping doors of the drink shop could tell the story of their ruin. And as you breathe the loaded atmosphere of those horrible dens you ask yourself why it Is impos- sble to rouse these people to sense of their wretched environment, why cannot they be up- lifted and reclaimed? The dull eyes, the heavy faces the indifference, the stupor. is your answer -narcotized by drink. It is strange that such quarter of city should be infinitely more re- pulsive than the so-called Chinese street, where, it is true you men smoking opium, pale ema- ciated; but that vice seems nothing in the clean though bare surroundings of the oriental in comparison with the horrible squaor of the English doss house.
 We stand for moment at the corner of the street. The clock is striking hafpast twelve, and we watch the closing hour of the saloon. law has been enacted in England which makes drunkenness a crime and and women can be arrested for this without it's being neces- sary as formerly, that they should be dsorderly as well; but when the customers of the drink shops are turned upon the streets at closing time it does not seem though the of the law had reached the offenders, for girls and men, young and old men, stagger blindly out into

lives, passing from the swinging door of one drink shop to another, till all that is left upon the face is a besotted leer and 1t seems as though the spark of divinity which is in every one had surely been extingushed men of the worst criminal type, low, brutalized, terrible. And we say to ourselves, we turn these pages. When shall we realize that to deal scientifically with such abject misery this We must not alone deny to these the freedom of the drink shop, but we should, for the good of humanity, count them as irresponsible unatics and keep them safely segregated for the rest of their lives
 But there is another side of East London even more heartrending, for walk those bleak streets in the cold March wind we meet again and again the honest seeking work and find ing Never probably, was labor shorter than at present. On all hands families are on the verge of starvation and men driven to despera- ton, who walk all day and return wearied and with the same terrible sentence on their lips No job for me-" crying for bread, not because they would not work or could not, but just because the bread winner find no employment,
 And yet there are gleams of brightness in this life in East London which help and cheer us and make us realize that possibly by and by we shall solve the great problem of sorrow by under standing how it is the crucible of God in which he produce that which is ikest to himself in human souls We walk onward through those dark and dirty streets and by and by we come to a lodging house for No lower or more degraded place be found. Yet we enter there is a woman sitting near the fire drinking cup of tea, surrounded by a group whose history is written only too plainly upon their faces, and as We enter recognized and they tell how this poor soul has been nigh to the verge of death She is expecting to go down into the great Gethsemane of suffering which shall bring her perhaps another load of sorrow which. were it not for the circumstances ought to be a wo- mans greatest joy.

LONDON WATERS HAT"

Few who have to New York from the other side to live and to make money have come into their in quite the fashion the matre dhotel of of the big uptown hotels. Four years ago he waiter in the restaurant of a London hotel earning at most $20 week, tips included. Now he is in charge of the whole res taurant service at of the busiest New York hotels and his income this year, including gratui- ties. should be at least S10000 and that he has been ;n New York only few months,
 There is nobody who is better qualified to make comparisons between restaurant conditions in Ion- don and here than this matre d'hotel and the wealthy but little travelled citizen of this country who does not know Europe may well be surprised to be told that the lavish tips he bestows upon his waiter in the expensive restaurant in London ben eft that person little than would moderate gratuity. What the waiter gets in the average big change does not go into his pocket Instead it is put in the hat
 The reason for the hat is that it is believed to insure uniformity of good service. It is the rule of the big London restaurant that every tip in the dining room shall go to the hat and at the end of the week the contents divided.
 "Waiters in London paid in wages only $1,25 week" said the maitre dhotel When a man first enters the service of a restaurant he gets only one-half of one part of the drawings from the hat, that he will receive altogether during a busy from $9 to $13 week After six months he will be entitled to a full part of a draw ing and will get on the average about S15 week
 Head walters in London, which correspond to captains here, get S5 week wages and about SIS a week cut of the hat. Here a captain will get from $75 to $100 month in wages while his tips will bring that amount up to $l5O to $250"
