remember their orders.  I do not know a single establishment in this city
where the waiters take any notice of their customers' arrival, or where
the proprietor comes, toward the end of the meal, to inquire if the

girl and elevator boy.

Numbers of our people live apparently in awe of their servants and the
opinion of the tradespeople.  One middle-aged lady whom I occasionally
take to the theatre, insists when we arrive at her door on my
accompanying her to the elevator, in order that the youth who presides
therein may see that she has an escort, the opinion of this subordinate
apparently being of supreme importance to her.  One of our "gilded
youths" recently told me of a thrilling adventure in which he had
figured.  At the moment he was passing under an awning on his way to a
reception, a gust of wind sent his hat gambolling down the block.  "Think
what a situation," he exclaimed.  "There stood a group of my friends'
footmen watching me.  But I was equal to the situation and entered the
house as if nothing had happened!"  Sir Walter Raleigh sacrificed a cloak
to please a queen.  This youth abandoned a new hat, fearing the laughter
of a half-dozen servants.

One of the reasons why we have become so weak in the presence of our paid
masters is that nowhere is the individual allowed to protest.  The other
night a friend who was with me at a theatre considered the acting
inferior, and expressed his opinion by hissing.  He was promptly ejected
by a policeman.  The man next me was, on the contrary, so pleased with
the piece that he encored every song.  I had paid to see the piece once,
and rebelled at being obliged to see it twice to suit my neighbor.  On
referring the matter to the box-office, the caliph in charge informed me
that the slaves he allowed to enter his establishment (like those who in
other days formed the court of Louis XIV.) were permitted to praise, but
were suppressed

 remember their orders.   I do not know a individual administration in this city 
 where the waiters take any notice of their customer' arrival, or where 
 the proprietor comes, toward the end of the meal, to ask if the 
 dishes have been cooked to their preference.   The sake so cosmopolitan on the 
 Continent or in England is replaced here by the same air of being

 girl and elevator boy. 

 Numbers of our citizenry live apparently in awe of their handmaid and the

 therein may see that she has an escort, the opinion of this subordinate 
 apparently being of sovereign importance to her.   One of our " gild

 figured.   At the moment he was passing under an awning on his way to a

 footmen determine me.   But I was equal to the situation and entered the

 One of the reason why we have become thus weak in the presence of our paid
