To Tip or Not to Tip,
TO Tip or riot to tip. that Is the ques
tlon. the much-vexed question of tipping Is
one around which endless discussion has
always centred, and yet no ono seems
Kble to bring about a rcnl remedy. The
trend Of public opinion Is that this con
stant demand for the giving of gratutl
ties Is an unnecessary and altogether evil
Imposition, and one from which there
ought to be a happy escape. But no en-
cape offers Itself. For conditions are such
that the tipping evil, like the poor, Is
nlways with us, no matter to what par
ticular corner of tho globo we flee. In
foot, fleeing to any corner of the globe
Involves such an extraordinary amount
of tipping that were we to Bit down In
a calm moment and figure tho whole
thing- out, wo should probably be so ap
palled at tho thought of that endless
array of porters, stewards, waiters,
chauffeurs, guides, etc., lying ruthlessly
In Walt for us that never should wo get
anywhere at all.
Tho ono solution which Is most gen
erally offered to tho problem Is that there
should bo a definite establishment of a
living wage, and this wage In each case
Should be quite sufficient to precludo re
sort to tho giving of gratuities. For not
only does the giving of these gratuities
Involve inconvenience, but at the samo
time the recipients feel that there Is a
loss of self-respect In the accepting of
what, after all. Is a sort of charity. Tho
idea that tipping la Just payment for
services rendered Is quite fallacious, In
asmuch as the Btandard In often very
much higher than It should be particu
larly In fashionable hotels, resorts and
ether places.
Tako tho case of the Pullman portcrB,
for Instance. It has been shown that
salaries range from J6.S8 a week for a
sleeping car porter to JS 75 a week for
a porter on an ordinary parlor car. Tho
whole scale of payment has been worked
out to combine with the amount of the
tips that tho porters will receive. Since
tho "powers that be" have figured out
that the sleeping car porters get more
tips than do the others, their salaries
are smaller proportionately.
Not only do tho persons who have to
do the tipping object to the system, but
at the same tlmo the porters themselves
would Infinitely prefer a better arrange
ment. For they declare thatltho present
system Involves a lens of self-respect. In
.precarious, uncertain and altogether der
ogatory to their dignity as workers and
men. "Where there Is a family depending
CHILDREN'S CORNER
Queen Gets Into
FOB several days after her narrow es
cape from drowning In the brook,
Queen was very content to sit and dream
by the warm Are; and she .gave her good
friend Bob no anxiety. But Buch com
fort was not to last long.
She soon forgot her former lesson and
aet out In search of trouble and when
Queen hunted for trouble she always
found It cat and people both can do that,
you know!
"It's all right to sit by tho fire when It
ranla outdoors,' said the Queen to herself,
"but where Is there a cat who wants to
stay there on a warm spring day?"
Of course nobody answered (because
she was careful to auk her question when
no ono could hear), so she lazily stretched
herself and started for the door. "An
other day of that fireside would make a
regular Tabby of me," she said; 'I'm
getting fat as It Is!"
She crept down the front hall and slip
ped out the front door, which happened
to be open for ventilation. "I hope I
won't run Into old Bob," she mused; he'd
ba sure to tell me to be careful of the
brook," which wasn't a very nice remark
for her to make, considering how bravely
tne collie Bob had swam out and rescued
her from her own folly only the week
before)
Across the porch she made her way,
down the path toward the barn she
walked with her most dignified step.
As she neared the barn she scented a
mouse. "One Is near!" she said to her
self, and quick as a flash all her queenly
dignity was forgotten and down the path
she raced; out across the barnyard;
through tho garden and clear Into tho
cornfield. There she caught him; but she
didn't eat him not she! She lived on cream
and aristocratic food! No common mica
for her! She just caught mice, because,
being a cat, she couldn't help It
Her brisk run had warmed her up nnd
made her hungry.
"I don't believe I am getting fat one
bit," she said to herself, "and I think
I might Just as well drink some more
cream any time I want It! I wonder If
I could got soma at the milk house now?"
Hho crept along towards the milk house,

That Is the Question
on the amount of tips gained In the doy'J
work, the matter taken on a serious com
plexion, and the porters feel that It is
of necessity up to them to collect as
much an possible In that way. In fact,
they nro compelled so to do, If they arc
to live nnd support a home and family,
Tct at tho samo time they dec'are that
If there were a fixed wage and no tipping
there would be better feeling and Inllnlte

Tho last day of an ocean voyage Is an

unnecessary services that till that mo

Traveling In Kurope Is another matter

Interminable system of tipping Ami yet

tip more or less profusely you're going

And so wo must renrh the Interesting
conclusion that, since the tipping system
Is with us, and Ib likely to be n fixed
feature all over tho world for many nnd
many a year to come, wo had better fol
low the prevailing custom, nnd tip wher
ever wo go. Tor If wo act othciwlsc, wo
may rest assured that tlilngn will not ha

nnd wo will certainly miss nil the atten

to us. Moreover, wo will be making tho
financial burdens of nur less fortunate
fellow creatures, who are largely de
pendent on theso gratuities, so much tho
harder by our neglcctfulness of their
dues.

The Daily Story
Suzette's Solution
It was only a few minutes until train
time and the woman who all tho morn
ing had been wandering restlessly about
tho house, forced her reluctant conscious
ness to the realization of tho fact that
soon very soon Suzette would be here.
Suzettc, after her four years at an East
ern college, was coming home. And what
was she, Helena Crosby, going to say to
the girl? It was In answer to Helena's
own urgent appeal that the girl was com
ing! that and Sanford's letter. Despite
tho warmth of the sweet June day, Helena
shivered. What was sho to say?
Sanford's letter spoke for Itself, in
clear, unmlstnkable terms It begged Su
zettc to give up that long-drcamcd-of
year In Kurope, and cotno back and
marry him. His anxiously awaited pro
motion had arrived; he was at last In a
position to ask the fulfillment of their
boy nnd girl pledge. Helena knew well
enough what the letter contained. Had
sho not proctkally dictated the substance
of It?
And Suette's only answer had been a
noncommittal telegram, "Starting for
home today."
Did sho mean to marry tlobert or dirt
sho not? That wns tho question which
over and over again rose foverlshly to
the sister's mind. Since Suzetto was 16
nnd Hobcrt 22, the two had been engaged
or, rather, thero had been an under
standing between them. Then Huzctlo
had gone to college and Itobcrt had fol
lowed I1I3 regiment to the Philippines.
Hnd the trouble begun, then, wondered
Helena duil, when a triangular chain of
correspondence linked the three? Or was
It not until Sunford hnd come to Helena
first to tnlk nbout the abtent Suzettc,
then to nigue and teaso about hor own
concerns, nnd lastly to discuss that
nover-tlrlrig topic tor conversation to a
man himself? Helena could not tell. But
llghtlj, unthinkingly, they had drifted
nlong until nil unwittingly a sudden
shock laid bare tho truth to lover and sis
ter that n new feeling, stronger, dcepei,
had tnken the plurc of that childish af
fection Sanfonl, manlike, had wanted to admit
tiln ttllth niwl fnnn tlln rnnansillnnf fM.
llut Helena, her heart a fiery turmoil of
, conlllcting emotion, would not listen
Shu
who, although only a je.it and a half
hip older, had been nlwnyn mother, nuise,
everything to the cheilshcd little slater
sho to bo tho one to destroy that sister's
happiness, break forever her faith In
humankind?"
"Impossible!" cried Helena, her gray
eyes dark with anguish. And from that
determination sho could not be shaken,
despite Robert's most Impassioned plead
ings. "I cannot hurt Suzettc," was her un
swerving answer. And nt last Robert,
desperate, had written Suzettc. Since tho
thing must bo met, let It be met at once.
Let them be married at once and return '
to tho Philippines. It was the only j
remedy cither could sec.
And so it wns that Helena Crosby i
could sco nothing fair nor lovely In the
clear, wnrm sunshine, tho rustling bird
filled trees When would Suzettc come? ,
And what would bo tho end? This was
all her tired brain could carry. ,
There was a crisp footfall In the street,
a sharp tinkle of tho bell. Then the
sound of Suzette's volco In a low Inter
change of words; a retreating, heavier
footstep. Tho next moment tho girl had
sprung Into tho room. Her arms closed
about Helena.
"Why, you darling'" she ciled. "Why
Helena, dear," an her quick eye noted
tho sIeiih of suffering l in the elder's
fnen Helena tried to smile.
"It Is nothing, sweetheart," she an
swered. "Only a touch of headache,"
falling back on woman's never-falling
excuse. "Oh, Suzette; how glad I am
to bcp you!"
"Tell me what It nil means?" hIip de
manded practically. "Why Is Robert in
such a hurry all nt once? He seems to
have existed without mo hitherto fairly
well," with an amused little laugh. "Why,
then, this midden eagerness?"
"His promotlon-hls return to the
Philippines." stammeied Helene. It was
going to be even harder than she had
fancied If to give up Robert to an in
visible, Intangible little sister had been
difficult enough, the renouncing of him to
this radiant, splendid young creature
He "Ho thinks best." she faltered "Ho
thinks I will go with him to tho Philip
pines," put in Suzette, keenly. "I!"
There w.ib incredulous protest In every
line of the pretty face. Helena flushed.
"Why, surely, dear, as his wife "
she began But Suzette Interrupted.
"Not I'" sho declared decisively, "No
heathen lands for me! It' absurd!"
"Absurd," echoed Helena. "But Su
zette, dear If you love him. Surely you
love him?" she Insisted strenuously. Su
zette's chin tilted resentfully.
"Do 17" she said. "Not enough for
that, anyway. After all, I haven't seen
Robert In ages and we wore only babies
when when we were ao foolish," her own
wlld-roBe tint deepening. "He la un
reasonable. How do I know whether I
love him?"
urn you no: nroKe in Helena, pas-1
sionntciy. -ur course you do; you nl
wajfl have, dearest. And ho loves you,"
bravely.
"Um does he?" was the dubious ra
sponse. "Well perhaps. But I listen,
Helena," her voice sharpening suddenly;
you you remember Mr. Williams? I've
written about him "
"Yes," answered Helens, surprised. The
little face waa hidden now on her
shoulder.
"Well-well " came a muffled sound,
"he has always known of my engagement
to Robert so, when I told him that I was
coming home he he wouldn't let me come
alone. Ho Is older than I, a good deal,"
went on the voice; "he ho cares for mo
very dearly, though. He wants to take
me abroad, to let me study "
A sudden blind resentment surged
through Helena.
"But-but Robert," she urged vehe
mently "Ho cares for you, too; you
know he does. He has not so much to
offer " nn unreasoning loyalty to the
absent soldier sweeping her along, "he
he " Btammerlng as she remembered,
A warm little arm crept about her rieck.
"But you will help me," begged the
olce. "you you will tell him "
"Tell him what," uttered Helena,
sharply. There was fear, almost terror
In the cry.
Suzette sat upright.
"That that I am married," said Su
zette distinctly. '"Frederick would not
take the risk of losing me. And and so
we were married In Denver. He brought
me here. He Is coming back In an hour,
You you are not angry?" wistfully,
"Married!" gasped Helena. For a mo
ment she remained quite still, seeking to
absorb, to realize, the wonderful fact,
"You married!"
"Yes," said Suzette, meekly.
"And and you are happy?" her first
thought as ever for Suzette.
"Yes," said Suzette, a sparkle of laugh
ter breaking forth.
"And and Robert?''
"Robert I leave to you," said Suzstte.
"You must explain "
But Helena, comprehending at last,
sprang toward the telephone. A the
watched, the girl's face changed, a tie
and wholly sweet expression crept across
the mobile features, revealing unsuspect
ed depths.
"And did you two think that I coUM
not understand?" she breathed, a tendtr
renunciation shadowing tho blue aye.
"Old you think I could not gutss the
truth,. Oh slater, my dearest slater? I
leave Robert to you "
