The manner in which a person uses a
telephone makes either good or n
bad impression. and is to great ex-
tent an index to his character. Alb
ruptness and discourtesy over the tele-
phone leaves a sting. 1t is folly to
lose ones temper because one does not
get immediate connection. This is
rarely the fault of the telephone oper-
ators.
The voice will be heard distinctly If
the lips are placed within an inch of
the mouthpice. One should talk natur-
ally. as If the person spoken to were
standing near by.
Another card, recommending a GER
tain kind of incandescent lamp
makes in bold type at its head this
announcement:
a Good Reason.-There are six. may
be a dozen, but one is sufficient.
Yet another ingenious and artistic
leaflet sets forth the merits of cleo
trio cooking utensils and household
appliances. from a waffle iron to cleo
tric curling tongs. Still another is de-
voted to electric fans. All are described
with a minutness of technical knowl-
edge that shows how wen the young
lady knows her business. One pretty
card is devoted to the care of electric
lamps. and here Is one of it's gems:

rub or two with barley dampened
cloth may be all that - needed: then
If you don't get enough light, you re-
quire a new lamp.
There. too, are the companys prin-
ted circulars to its customers, such
as those making rates contracts an
nouncements. These are also prepared
by this most capable and businesslike
girl. The electrical domain Is so broad
and new discoveries and inventions

Prince Pu Lun's Visit
Looked at from Oriental Standpoint as Seen
in Correspondence Of the hatow Gazette

Mr. Wong, who has been with these people
some time, that no apprehension as to the
safety of the princes person need be felt,
as 1T was not their purpose TO drag him
down and trample him under foot.
AS they passed, each one saluted his
Highness with a musical phrase of greet
ing, highly complimentary, we understand,
and slightly reminiscent OF our own sweet
Chinese tongue: Ain TIE Ia VAIN Day"

plished and while not acquainted with our

do not train their feet TO dainty size, as our
fair sex does, but allow them to grow free

walk to clubs CD The highways are built
hard and smooth in order that they may use
their feet to the best advantage. His
Highness notes the peculiar costumes Of
the men, The day is warm yet they wear
black and when night comes, with festivi-
sombre black. These men subordinate
themselves entirely to the women. and
after the fashion of the Japanese, apply
poetical names TO their wives. In front of
our hotel l saw young woman go by. Two
young men spoke admiringly. / asked Mr.
Wong what they said. Isn't she a peach ?"

nearly all that was typical of American
life-its industries, its craftsmanship, its
art, it's commercialism and its women. So
pressing were the invitations his Highness
was fain 10 believe some Interior motive
might undarlie this warm spirit of hospi--
tality, but aside from few itinerant mer-
chants dealing in long black strings, spec
tacles and a street delicacy of fluffy white
globules no one has tried to dispose of any
wares to us, and we ascertain that it is
not unusual for this city to search the
world over for notables to appear in the
local temple, the Propylaeum, where scenes
of strange fanaticism occur. as we were so
fortunate as TO witness on our third day
Unlike our own land, where only the
lords of the family make devotions, in this
country the women conduct all the relig-
ious rites, and for their solemn functions

selves in wonderful fabrics of mysterious
designs and cover their heads with mock
fruits and wings and ribbons. giving the
general appearance of rubbish. We saw
them gather at this temple one afternoon,
trudging there in these fantastic gowns,
as the laws of the city require them, before
going TO the devotions. to parade on the
highways as an inspiration 10 the popuace.
Within the plainly furnished temple they

devotee was rendered absolutely nil. We

ticulating freely, the assembled women be-
came quiet while one of them began TO
utter what was apparently long prayer.

fervor evidently had effect. the women
began TO move about and pick at their
garments nervously. All OF this over, the
