HE MADE NO SIGN.
Ha Got His Revenge on the Man Who
Had Offended Him.
There is no hardened wretch of a poker
sharp on earth who can carry in his coun
tenance an expression of absent-minded
guiltlessness while his brain is hatching out
devilish plots more successfully than the
average hotel waiter, writes Morris Waite
in the Detroit Free Press. J ust as I was
sitting down to breakfast in one of the
popular hotels of Chicago a day or two ago,
a man next to me asked the aristocratic
looking waiter for a glass of milk. “Yes.
sir, iu ore moment,” taid the waiter, as he
banded me the bill of fare aud inclined his
ear toward me.
I asked for some grapes. He brought
them and waited my order for break
fast.
“Bring me that milk, please.” said my
neighbor.
“Right away, sir,” answered the waiter.
“Well, I want it; and I want it now.”
I smiled inwardly then, for I knew what
the result of that imperative demand
would b?.
The waiter got the milk without a word
or the least change of countenance. Then
he took our orders.
When he brought the food mine was all
right. He placed butter, sugar, cream, salt
and pepper within my reach and then stood
behind the other man’s chair.
“I ordered coffee, not tea," said the guest.
“I bag your pardon, sir; I’ll change it,”
answered the waiter in an apologetic tone,
aud he hastened toward the kitchen with
the tea. He wi.s gone for some time, and
as the mnn had no fork he continued read
ing his newspaper until tba waiter reap
jiearal. “Fork, please,” he then said with
a shade of annoyance.
The waiter hand and him the fork and then
had an errand which took him across tha
room for a moment.
My neighbor examined the dishes,
dropped both hands to the table and
stretched his neck around to get the waiter’s
attention, which ho finally did.
“I ordered baked potatoes, not fried; and
you’ve forgotten the breakfast bacon.”
't he only expression in the waiter’s face as
he started off to correct these errors was
one of deep regret. He was gone longer
than was ab-olutely necessary and my
neighbor seemed to tuink so too. He stuck
his fork into the sicak and withdrew it
again; he Broke a roll in two and then laid
it down because ho hid no bu.ter; ho
reached a sugar howl, put two lumps into
his coffee and then looked in vain for a
cream jug. He waited iu gloomy silence
until tho waiter returned; then he asked
wearily for the cream nnd butter.
Considerable time had elapsed since his
breakfast was first brought out. 1 had got
well along with mine and was enjoying it,
but lie couldn’t seem to enjoy his. I judged
that his steak and coffee in i cooled some
what, fur he tasted of one ami sippped the
other, ate n part of his roll and then laid
down his knife and fort.
The waiter, ready to execute tho slightest
order, leaned forward aid asked in a soft
voice if he would like some nice wheat
cakes.
The man made no answer. He got up
from t o table, picked up his pa|ier aud left
the room greatly dejected.
The waiter quietly gathered together the
dishes without oven glancing toward the
departing guest, and the closest scrutiny
failed to discover a gleam of tho eye or a
softening of tho lints around the mouth to
indicate the satisfaction which he felt at
having deliberately spoiled the man’s break
fast in return for the insult ho had received
in being asked to bring that milk “now.”
