They believe that the rust scare has
come too late to be of serious pro-

FOREIGN RESORTS.
MODEST DINING IN SOHO.
A Curious Underworld Hobnobs
in Its Restaurants.

Squeezed between the hustle of oxford
street and the whirl OF Shaftesbury ave-
nue., Soho smiles benignly on prospective
diners, like some over-fed well-contented
host 1t draws the unwary among
humanity by the sheer force Of its gar
lc-scented streets, and near little cartes
du Jour-those elegant, though misleading
documents, through which We plod with
the aid OF a smattering of French and
heated Swiss waiter.
The cheapness OF a Soho dinner is some
thing whereat to marvel-until the dinner
is a thing OF accomplishment. Not five
minutes walk from Piccadilly Circus lit
tie streets run side by side, or in crisis
cross fashion, literally plastered with
restaurants. They are all owned by
foreigners, these haunts of the would-be
Bohemian. They are all run by foreign
ers-for the benefit, you must understand.
Of the Englishman, his wife, sister, or
fance. The couple obviously fance are
beloved I'm Soho. The manager welcomes
them with an extra half-inch OF smile
and a loud "B'jour, madame!'-this re-
mark drawing bushes from the lady In
question. The walters rush to their
tables In anticipation OF favors to come.
And, besides, such a couple will overlook
any little defects in the menu. in a man.
ner that is positively gratifying to Mon
sieur lie Proprietor. Other customers, as
he will admit with a shrug, are not so
complaisant when the lamb turns out
mutton and the ices are watery. But in
Soho, what would you have?
