DULUTH, April 26.-The ciry has
taken the offensive in its fight against
the old telephone company with a suit
to compel it to remove its poles and
wires from the streets, its franchise

interfering with its business, as the
city has threatened to remove the wires
and poles unless the company got out.
In order to hurry matters through. the
city has begun q suit involving the same
matters in the state court. and Will
push it along as rapidly as may Oe.

Boys, whenever you 60 to a party

you when you are not doing anything
worthy of such attention; if you
do right you can enjoy that fun just

| let him laugh and rubber all he will
then liken him unto the cowardly cur
who shows his teeth but dare not bite.
If he or anyone else point their
finger at you and you are behaving
yourself tell him or them to laundry
that member of the body before he
exhibits it to the public eye. When
anyone stares at you makes any re-
mark or tells joke and the camera
centers his visual organs upon you,
just calmly tell him to look to his
cranial regions his business and to
himself. If this "busy body in other
peoples matters" asks you questions
through sheer presumption tell him
that you are no echo nor graphaphone
to respond a reply to an automatic
rattlebox. IF you are telling story
and he interrupts or says you might
have done better, say that he must
recOllect that some men in this world
make penny where others make
dollars and if you or any one else are
talking on sensible conversation
and the meddler interrupts you with
q nonsensical exclamation, just tell
him to "bark when you're sicked on, 7"
not to notice the joke or jeer of the
crowd, you disdain them, they be-
lleve you think them unworthy of
your uotice. Do not be afraid of
getting into trouble with such a per-
son. Sensible people will see that
your are right, while the 'sbusy body"
knows he ia wrong. Everyone has
conscience.
