FOLKS IN THAT TOWN

Says an eastern woman in talking
about New York City are greatly given
to what the English call side" The
expression means putting on extras
which are not a part of things but
are done for impressive purposes. For
instance, one caterer in New York
makes a specially of sending the most
beautiful and luscious tropical fruit
conceivable in lovely ornamental bowls
to the house of people who are en-
tertaining. He does it on a pure gam
bic. The hostess does not expect the
fruit to be eaten. 1t would be quite
like cutting a rose out of an attrac-
tive canvas, SO perfect is the picture
made' by the collection of fruit. If
however, some very grasping guest
should nibble one of the choice hot
house grapes the caterer wins. The
price of that one nibble is exactly one
dollar. And the story goes that the
business is profitable. It recalls the
best line Marie Cahill ever said, in des-
scribing some fabulously rich friends.
you know. they were so rich-I
scarcely know how to tell you how
rich they Were-but they were the sort
of people who had fruit in the house
when no one was sick,''
