These cases grew out of the war

This piece Of pumpkin pie, made
from squash, is just one-quarter
smaller than the 10-cent piece l, used
to buy two years ago." remarked one
of the western representative as he
surveyed the little three-cornered
slab. "Considering the fact that the
restaurant man gets his rent, his heat
and light free, I do not think he
ought to sting us so hard. He charges

the other day and had steak. When
he received his bill he did little

seQuently the cards are very hard to
get nowadays, and if a guest insists
upon having one before he orders
the waiter snatches it and buries 1t
under the table cloth before the next

from grabbing all the tips they can
