II you could only have some inkling
some idea as to the course you
should pursue with reference to some
contingency that looms up in the fu-
ture-dark and forbidding-that you
could better appreciate and enjoy life
Would 1t not be agreeable to know as
to your future prosperity. happiness,

what locality is most auspicious for
you, what sort of investment prom
ises fortunes golden flow; what day
Of the week or month are most lucky
for you; what person Is best suited
for your life oompanion2 In short,
to be able to anticipate coming events
Would you win merit In the eyes Of
those whom you come In contact and

Surely you are. Then II is duty
that you owe yourself to visit the

ALMOST MISSED THEIR TIPS.

rho ssd s,ory Of the eighteen little wait
.,s rbo almost missed their tips at a Fifth

lows:
eighteen extra walters were engaged by
A.. International Geneva Association TO

,,,sd there they found il TO be table

Tho 'phone. and although ii was all the
f.plt Of the l. q. A.. he was promised that
tho men would he paid 90 cents more IN
Ease the party should not leave any tip for
the walters.
All the troubles with cooks are not con-
c.ntrated among the patient housewives or

vsy for such persons to know that the
manager OF large metropolitan eating

MISCELLANEOUS HARpsHIPs.

Under miscellaneous news" the follow
Ing interesting sidelights are thrown upon
how some members of the other half live.
For instance, when you are led to admire
the smart appearance OF the tray squad
remember that walters commencing work
In one hotel are required TO deposit & for
the brass buttons which are sewn on their
dress coats. II they afterward lose one OF
them they are charged 30 cents for 1t. EX-
penSve brass buttons these"
How the mere production OF union card
recalled the past TO head waiter when all
else failed is illustrated in the following
anecdote:
head waiter with a very bad memory,
receiving 81 from a party for distribution
among the walters who served a banquet,
suer distributing the money evenly among
nIs pockets. absolutely forgot all about IT.
nhen the walters reminded him, displaying
he union buttons and mentioning that they
we're all union men, his memory was sud-
eeniy revived and quietly taking the hint
he just as quietly paid up"
Perhaps II We only better understood the
"ias OF the class that carries our con-
.s'mne and medium rare" we would side
'eep certain opportunities to make the
sieat American kick Here is one SEEM
'hs'y good reason for showing such charity
we may be able to muster:
When waiter OF one of New York's
