DEAR GENE—
I've got to glom on to a Job
with a great future In lt, that's

"What's 'Fat' Chance doing
now?"
"I don't know whether he's
president or treasurer of the firm
he's with. Last week he was
manager and the week before he
was just tbe office boy. You see,
he rises so quickly."
I wish I was a quick riser!
Dut Yeast Is not my middle

rise ln an elevator they have to

THE TAOOMA TIMES.
taurant business. There waa
millions ln feeding the hungry,
pop-eyed populace. Alao ha ad
vised me to start at the bottom,
because then I would have lees
distance to fall.
And he gave me a note to the
foreman of a one-arm Joint,
which Is delicatessen for a dairy
lunch. The bosa of the Urabe
terla didn't need a telescope to
size me up, I guess.
"You will have charge of the
pies and pastries department,"
he said. "All you've got to do
Is to dust tbe chocolate custards
and chaae tha dyspepsia germs
off the bread pudding. You don't
have to be a waiter. When a
customer grabs a piece of des
sert give him a punch on the
meal ticket."
The clock struck a dozen, aud
the noon rush of hungry grub
hustlers swarmed In. First, each
one snatched a tray, a paper nap
kin and a handful of burglar's
tools. Then they went foraging
for corned beef hash, chicken
livers, fried frog's necks, pickled
eel's knees and other delicacies.
The last place where they helped
themselves, was my dessert coun
ter.
Everything on the counter was
five cents a copy, except pie a la
mode. They had the crust t«i
charge a dime for that. I got a
t-ore wrist punching skylights
into meal tickets. A woman cus
tomer asked me if I had orange
glace melange, and I told her no.
The chicken pox was the worst
I ever had.
A nervous customer tried to
pick up a cup of jelly. It got a
sudden chill and shook itself all
over the vest. Then hs jelled—l
mean yelled—and a cloud of
powdered sugar from the cream
puffs blew Into my face. It
blinded me and I passed a plate
of pie a la mode into a fellow's
whiskers instead of Into his mitt.
