A Dry Land Means Low Tips

Almost dro wning out the murmur-
ing of the thirsty and the groans O
bonifaces, is the wall of the waiter
heard in the land. His palmy days
are over, perhaps never to return.
The Continental ten per cent. tip is
becoming general on Broadway. A
fair percentage of casuals simply don't
tip at all. Prohibition in the eating
houses mea suppression Of what
was not an infant ind ustry in the time
of the Pharaohs, for tips are as old as
humanity.
Some of the 'swellt restaurants are
making what they call a %"couvert"
charge in addition to the amount Of
the bill. The man who pays this has
commonly no notion of paying over
again for the same service. In nearly
all places ten cents or fifteen cents has
been added to the price of portions, a
price already very high. This also
chills the patron and disheartens the
waiting waiter.
But the psychology of the case lies
deeper than this, and like most psy-
chology is not without its ass 'ciation
with physiology. The Martini and the
Manhattan had meaning. The olive
limited peace and good will, the cherry
good cheer. Highballs and hilarity
had hesrtiness about them. The pros
porous citizen with three or four
drinks ABOARD was not interested 10
counting Dickels. And between times,
while engaged in settling the war and
the other affairs OF the universe, he
could slip out a dollar without fairly
knowing it Temperance carries Thrift
with it. Thrift is the wsiling and
waiting walters enemy.
OF course the waiter must live. His
employer must pay him if his TN
ploy er's patrons don't. This Will
still further swell the cost of high liv-
ing, it may be beyond what the traffi,
will eur. lift revives home eating.
the effect will not be a social evil.
The steak that costs 81 at home has
about a 81 restaurant average. Run
it up SIS and a lot of people will begin
to think about the economies of the
kitchen range. That such thought lie
thoroughly wholesome is the veiw oil

HEAVY SNOW IN
WEST FORCING
SALE OF CATTLE
Range Pastures Buried and
Railroads Unable to Supply
Cars to Save
Stock.

George Shall, Verdel. who shipped
two loads of cattle to the stock
yards Friday. said cattle were
being driven to loading stations all
through the northwestern part of
Nebraska and that the various local
railroad agents were working over
time handling rush orders for stock
cars.
"a big percentage of Fridays big
run OF cattle received at Omaha,
came from along the main line of
the Northwestern" said Shall. "and
from stations on the Winner branch.
The situation is mighty bad out in
that section of the country at pres
ent.
THE entire range is practically
buried in snow and lot of Wyom-
ing and Montana stockmen who
rented grass pasture in the sand
hills country three months ago are
making a Decline for the nearest
shipping point. The snow is three
feet deep on the level 80 miles west

be worse farther west. Trainmen
from the main line say that there
already has been considerable loss
of cattle near Valentine and declare
it is impossible to supply the de-
mand for empty stock cars.
"A heavy sleet preceded the biz
card and telegraph service is badly

look like ropes caused by the storm

Dun,s Trade Review.

New York, Nov. 2S.-Duns tomorrow will
say:
"a return to unrestrained productive eff
fort, so much needed to remedy the pre-
vailing shortages Of goods and to halt ris-
ing tendencies, has been further delayed
by continuance of the bituminous coal min
ing controversy, and by other disputes that
still impede the free processes of output
and distribution of commodities. Some
basis. however, apparently exists for the
belief that at least a lull in the country
labor troubles may before long be wit
messed and the psychological effect of the
approach of winter, when voluntary cessa-
tion of work Is less apt to occur than in
other seasons. is to be considered in this
connection.
Given more stable Industrial conditions,
business progress would be measureably
stimulated, there is conspicuous activity in
many directions. Not only has holiday
shopping commenced at an earlier date
than usual in most sections. but the do
nestic buying power is remarkably we'll
sustained despite factors that might not
illogically be expected to curb 1t, and lat
est returns Of export trade have again
demonstrated that various American
products are urgently required abroad and
that the difficulty Of financing do not pre-
vent their purchase.

his mother, sister and younger
brother. Once he has accomplished
this, he said, he would 60 to Mexico

"My fathers death will solidfy

COAL SITUATION
HOLDS BOARDS in
BRITISH HOUSE
Thorough Inquiry Into Cost Of
Production, Output and
Prices to Be Made by
Commons.

London. Nov. 2S.-Debate on the
coal situation is scheduled in the
House of Commons, today, follow
ing the introduction of a motion by
William Brace, a labor member,
calling for the appointment of
committee to inquire into the cost
of production, the output and prices
of coal. The full strength of the
labor party is behind the measure.
The government treats the issue
as matter of confidence and has is
sued urgent instructions to its sup
porters informing them the adoption
of the motion would be equivalent
to vote of censure. 1t is assumed
the government will resign if the
motion is successful.
The motion. which has many sup
porters outside the labor party, is
an outcome of an order issued by
Sir Auckland Geddes, minister of
national service and reconstruction
on November "a that household coal
would be reduced 10 shillings ton
in price.
