"If waiters had their way men would not bo permitted Inn restaurant boforo bo-foro tho dinner hour, or at least beforo be-foro lunch," said tho proprietor of a cafe on upper Broadway. "Why? Simply because thoy aro so cross at breakfast. No, It isn't tho question of tips altogether, although I never saw a waiter rcfuso a quarter.
