a dinner party may give very large

any one of the guests. These walters
must live. The question is: How do they
do it?
One hears these tales in out of the way

men who would reform the world meet TO
be frank with one another There rs one
waiter who is said to be able to bite

he is serving an ice, and that without at

waters Another is said to be an adept

to be found on the floor. 1t may be hard
to believe such things. but how about pc
lieving that a man can live on wages
of $50 a year and no tips? If 1t We're not
for the influence Of the tipping system
men employed by such catereres would
be paid living wage, the persons VINO
give the dinners would pay for it. and
there would be no opportunity for clever

forty dinners a year. and for these forty

have carefully nurtured and encouraged
it's growth for what there is in 1t for them
1t is cold blooded proposition founded
on a dollar and cents basis. The late
George Pullman is accused. whether just
ly or unjustly, of having said: when
the people are fools enough to pay the
sleeping car porters, why should We pay
them, too?' That Is the theory upon
which the employers have proceeded. and
that is why the tipping system has de-
veloped into its modern compleXity.
That 1t is not the fault of the walters,
taking them as representing the largest
class Of tip takers. Is proved by the fact
that nearly every waiter in large city
hotel or restaurant Will quit his job in
stantly to take place in a club where
living wages are paid and there is no tip
ping. Walters who make $40 a week, net,
under the tipping system will gladly take
a place in a club at $50. The same thing
may be said of bellboys. porters and
other servants of that class.
Unfortunately, not everybody can be-
long to club. The vast majority of the
American travelling public must depend
upon public inns for food and lodging.
The minority of club men is so small
that 1t hardly counts at all.
But 1t Is universally admitted that the
service in a good club is better than that
of the best hotels. The servants are more
polite, more prompt and more punctilious
They get no tips. They are paid living
