Ho Is a son to lie proud of, and she a
handsome old Kul with much self-reliance
After weeks of auanReminl and discus
sion sho was to visit a daughter In another
state, making the trip alone, 'llu son had
protested against the venture as moro
than -he "hould undertake, but his solici
tude met with rather a c-feill reception
"Don't mat me as thought I wero a

HOW TO miS A RESTAURANT.
From the Atlanta Constitution.
Tibbs stated that ho went Into a res
turnnt on Decatur street 8aturtla night,
where Thctras Is a clerk, and called for
u. ten-cent lunch. Tho beef did not suit
him, ami ho asked that the older bo re
filled. When tho Rood beof was biought
Thomas took tho ten-cent check and hand
cxl him ono for 15 cents. Tibbs declined
pa) lug thu extra live cents and tore up
tho lVcenl chock This angered Thomas,
and pasted Tibbs over tho left 130 with his
llbt Thomas stated to tho court that ho
gavo Tlbbrf no bone, but the meat had
somo grlstlo on It. Tho fresh order called
for an extra llvo cents, and that was why
ho cJiang-I the ticket He did not stilko
Tibbs until that gentleman hod cursed
him
Other guests In the icstaurant who wero
prevent at tho tlmo told the same story
as related by Tibbs, and stated that
Thomas struck him with little or no prov
ocation. Then this Is tho way tho recorder
summed It all up.
"Look here, Mr. Thomas, you can't run
a restaurant that way. You must run It
to feed folks and not whip them. I will
dismiss tho case against Mr. Tibbs and
will line Mr. Thomas JJ and costs."
