The Telephone Girls Advantage.

That there is something peculiarly
attractive about the telephone girls
voice, might be the more readily ad-
mitted were il not that in new lines
there are often times when it is i'm.
possible To give a satisfactory service,
and those periods are when the temper
Of the patron and the good nature OF
the fair operator are seriously tried.
For instance, when that" gentle voice."
so feelingly portrayed by an Eastern
paper, is transformed into stacatto
protest against persistently emphatic
demands for some impossible connec-
ton, it creates a vague doubt as to
whether it emanates from rosy lips of
some sylph- like creature or the gorgon
throat OF Medusa, capable OF turning
the joyous heart OF the innocent and
unsophisticated patron into stone.
There are, however, perfected lines
such as ours will soon become-whcre
nothing but harmony prevails, and
when the patron takes down his re-
ceiver he is involuntarily prepared for
symphony akin to that heard in our
dreams and described in meter as
" echoes from the golden shore"
Then no vexatious interruption is
made by linemen, and the young
ladies are always in a good humor,
cheerful, and the use OF the telephone
is pleasure which ensures satisfactory
service.
All this is preliminary, however, to
a late announcement that in one of
our large cities, Miss Alice Bermas, a
plain hello girl, was married to
millionaire who had fallen in love with
her voice, over the telephone, who
sought acquaintance with and married
her, lavishing all his wealth upon her
for the privilege of having the Voice at
his table.board instead of the switch.
board, where he could hear that gentle
tone attuned to endearing words in
stead OF those commonplace trade re.
sponses such as Hello" NUMBER"
4" Have they answered." or Lines
busy" Ere this, however, the million.
aire became enraptured with the Voice
and called up many of his friends on
the slightest pretext simply to hear
the tones of the intermediary Voice.
And this is not solitary instance
of such infatustion. Another case is
related OF a Liverpool merchant who
purposely annoyed 40 operator at the
exchange to realize how philosophi.
cally she dealt with the unpleasant
side Of her duties. He would com.
plain without cause and then gloat
over the pleasant nature of her re-.
plies. The more he stormed the more
pacific, gentle and pleasant became
the voice Of Miss Plat, until he found
himself slave to its charms, and the
only release Cor mitigation) of the
pain was by making the maiden Mrs.
Smith. Still other happy termina.
tions of q Irritation by wire are on rec
ord, and speak very highly of the sense
of adaptation the operator is able to
assume to make her service acceptable.
Let it be an admonition to our own
"hello" girls to cultivate the grace of
good temper, and to, at all times, mod.
ulate the voice to accents Of kindness
and sympathy, which are said 10 be
akin to love,

A War on Spitters.

The New York Board Of Health is
making determined crusade against
the splitting nuisance They are hav-
ing the cordial cooperation OF the po-
lice. and the entire force has been
instructed to keep strict watch and
arrest all ylolators II the law. 1t is
expected TO have 1000 patrolmen on
duty, until the evil is abated In aid
OF this movement, the operators OF
ierry-boats have taken stringent meas
ures TO prevent smoking on their
boats, which will, they believe, de-
crease somewhat the desire to expec.
torate. This may be true to a limited
degree, but if they could, by some
means, prescribe chewing, half the
battle would be fought, for nothing
sets the salivary glands a-food more
than deadly nicotine. 1t is proposed
to give operators Of the boat police
powers. to enforce a civil request when
necessary. DR.. Darlington, OF the
Board OF Health, says that the change
in vitality reports will be marked, If
this reform is success, aside from
abatement of an indecent pollution of
air and the surroundings OF everybody
who from necessity or choice mingle
with the busy throng. Nobody can
deny that the senses OF smell and
sight are fearfully outraged by the
great pools OF spittle sometimes seen
on floors and sidewalks OF our towns
and cities and the dreadful nausea that
assails many delicate stomachs at the
sight is positive injury that justifes
extreme laws literally construed and
vigorously enforced, even though the
danger from germ-poison be mini.
mixed in forming judgment.
The method of enforcing the order
is rigid. 1t is to arrest. arraign and
fine. The process is short, and with
out any OF the usual resources for
creating vexatious delay. If the pris-
oner has no money, he goes to the
station-house to reflect upon the enor-
nifty OF his conduct; if he pays, he
goes out as q spotted man, for in.
creased penalty if his identity is
proven for q second offense. The re-
striction of splitting is provided for in
both the sanitary and penal code Of
New York, and there seems to be a
disposition aroused in the big city to
set an example for cleanliness, de-
cency, and for removing q glaring
menace to health, that will be worthy
Of imitation.
