IIACKETS flourish Iti K(m.hI and
bad limes and, in America, many
flourish and make more money dur-
ing a depression than when times
are good.
One of the g tea tat ruckets In/fills
country Is the •Tip" rackct^lt is
one tliat doi'JK.'go. d' busliyeioi t woly«
months lnf'the year and has on^ its
list of. suc||ern, men and wopren
front all Wtilks of life.
Kronj'-ltle witilthy class you nat-
urally expect tlietu to tip mid some
believe that only the well to-do in-
dtilgke" In witch _ rank absurdity. Such
is not true. Men w. rklujc for a
salary of twenty 'dollars per "Week
feel that they must follow the up
to date habit of tipping.
The tip custom would not he ho
bad If the one to-, whom «il Is paid
had thep rlyUego of keeping it. Only
a few -have the privilege of keeping
the money. In nit 'st cases- the ritoit-^
ey Is turned over to the boas or the
proprietor nf the business.'
A- few fifte, in the aouth. working
in cafes have the prlvllO^o of keep-
tug the tips. The ntfxt time that
generous heart of yours flutters
with a "desire , to hand that little
"peach" ten fir twenty-five cents for
that fiirced smile, just remember it
Is not she-that gets the benefit, but
some half brute that calls himself a
man who gets the money when tho
day'* work Is over.
If the business establishment hap-
pens to be one that permits the girls
to Jtoep the tips. It usually requires
/\ie help to "work for . what they re-
ceive. In hand-outs front the custo-
lncrs. In that case you ,w,ould r- I,
II you knew it. spend your money
with such- "a place of business.
Tips, In Amerli'a, run front- five to"
.twenty-five, hundred dollars per wet It,
depending on the. place and nature
of the business- If the .generous
hand-outs run seytittil hundred dol-
lars per week you may rest assured
that you arc contributing b the bank
account of some man who never
make* any contribution to the cause
of humanity.
If you" stop at a hotel why siiotiiU--
y_ou fed that you are < ibllgated to
hand the bellboy ten or twenty-five
cents every time he perforins a ser-
vice? He may be rendering service
with a smile but It Is nothing more
than what he I* supposed to do arid
Is paid to do.
If you go Into a department store,
i t- a five-and ten, you don't tip .the
clerk. Why should you feel obli-
gated to hand the porter or waitress
twenty-five cent*? it Is just as rea-
son able to. tip- a dry goods cterk. as
thfe waitress or hat check girl.
Of course, If you want to donate,
to a fund that will enable ;W ine man
to buy a private yacht or send his
wife 1o Kurope, while yours stays
a I; home and washes dishes, con-
tinue your generous tips.
Anuiyise "ifc tipping racket and
every time you are tempted to tip,
*ee if It smack* of culture or Intel-
ligence. It doe* not six w too much
of either one. Huppose yojt pay ten
cent* to have your hat, chf<;ke4. then
you pay the Klrl an extra ten cents,
It has coat you twenty cents" to put
your hat. . wfu're It will be safe for
an hour fir tw v
Some day Americans will lie wiiifi
enough *0 st'op the tip racket--!t"t
by any law, but but refusing to make
donations.
