Omaha daily bee., 1915-04-04


couldn't set as good manicure as she
gives in Omaha. AZ the risk Of giving
tho young woman a free ad this Is re-
corded.
Inquiry was made by the diffident inter
viewer regarding rirts Did they bother
much7
Why how should I know" inquired
Daisy. with that sidelong glance which
probably comes from the blood OF her
mother, which was from the vivacious
French nation
And then she became serious and de-
clared that the flirts are something NJ a
pest. but that III a girl knows how. she
can get rid of them" And Daisy knows
how. She says the remedy is Just TO
laugh at them. This is a much better
method than the Grass crude method OF
calling a policeman or summening big
brother or heavy-toed father 70 deal with
the undesirable. It always works.
Attitude Of Public.
Deprecatlng tho attitude Of the public
toward manlcurists or what she believes
the public attitude TO be toward the
members OF her profession, the young
woman warmly declared that IL is every
bit as respectable and eminently proper
and correct and en- regle and a la mode
for girl TO make her living polishing
up the nails OF men az beating their
typewriters or keeping their books.
Il don't know why they should look on
maniourists like they do. she said.
oh. but they don't" the interviewer
protested
They don't look on them like they
do?" inquired Miss widener, with Inno-
cent eyes
That L. floundered the interviewer,
they don't look on them like you think
they do
But how do you know how think
they do look on them7"
This young person should not have been
manicuTist. She should have been a
iawyer-a corporation lawyer
The question having. been straightened
out she vehemently declared that It IL
quite as respectable to be a rnanlcurlst
as TO be a Typewriter operator and that,
perhaps. It is quite possible. manicurists
do more to help men along in the world
than certain typewriter operators. ex-
smples OF whose skill. or rather lack OF
skill, she has seen.
This ought to settle this malicious gos-
clip.
~ Tip for Manicure Lady.
The next subject taken up was tips.
Who are the best tippers7 Unheaitatingly
came the answer. The middle-class
men"
I've manicured some awfully rich fell
lows" said she. "and they'd wait for a
nickel change and take Il and put II down
IN a deep purse and tie string around
IL and stow II away in the bottom OF their
inside pockets. It's the truth. But the
middle-class fellow Is generally free with
his money
But l don't blame them ~ they're not.
IL young fellow spends 50 cents for a
manicure you don't expect he'll tip you
besides that. IT'S good enough that he Il

and I'm perfectly satisfied
You can generally give 'em the once
