The Tipper's Trials. .
| the New York Globe

From the New York Globe.
The Globe has lately printed some very
interesting articles about tips to walters.
Our conclusion drawn both from these
letters and from ton, is that the
present system is fairly satisfactory to
the professional spender, the expert in
life, and the brave man. The brave man
does not mind the walters proud looks.
The professional spenders vanity leads
him to give tips that any waiter would
deem large. The expert in life knows
how to impose himself and his standards.
IF you don't like my tip his manner
seems to say, II can forgive your mex
perience.
But to the timid soul, whom years can
not make expert. and whose vanity is
powerless to make him spender, the
present system is trial The timid soul.
who I'm restaurants and hotels is not far
below the average man, would be glad
to give what would be about right"-if
he only knew its figure. He would well
come, as a ministering angel, quick
eyed, low-voiced. unobtrusive functionary
able to approach discreetly. survey him
and his meal consider the length of his
stay at table, and. unheard save by him
alone. tell him what his tip ought 10
be. 1t is the uncertainty and the lack
of recognized standards that abash the
timid diner. infect his oysters, poison
his spaghetti, and give flavor of cork
to his wine.
