Phone Profanity.

| A Chicago telephone girl ha
made startling announcement
She says women are more prone Il
profanity than men. When tht
bell goes ting a-ling-ling and there
is mad skurry to unlock the re
ceiver and gently murmer hello
into its nubean depths only to dis.
cover that it is the butcher boy
wanting to talk to the second as
sistant in the kitchen, or when after
seeming hours of waiting, connec-
ton is made with a brewery instead
OF the desired friends private apart
ments, then it is that women show
themselves to be sisters of that very
noted queen of England who has
had pOsthumous fictional honors
thrust upon her in recent years and
whose ''damns" are world famous.
In Chicago the hello girls are be-
ginning to assert their rights. They
positively refuse to have their
auriculas orifices tickled by any re-
ference to the deity or a future state
of punishment. The Chicago hello
girls believe that the telephone call
may be reversed without a too
direct reference to famous winter
resort. But as to the preponderance
OF evidence against the fair sex;
Men aren't half so bad-.even society
dandies and they have a reputa-
ton for profanity among us girls
too. But they're the politest of
gentlemen compared with these
malrons and debutantes." 1t is re-
grettable that such conclusion
should have been reached. We like
to think of womankind as using
only the choicest specimens of Anglo
Saxon linguistic purity. Yet the
matter is not so shocking as would
appear on first thought. The man
or woman who could refrain from
picturesque language when the
ordinary telephone buzzes and burrs
in the midst of an important con-
versation, who patiently stands and
rings for fifteen minutes only to be
told finally that the telephone was
removed the day before, who is the
victim of crossed wires and crazy
quilt conversations, who stuff ers the
filings and jibes of the ordinary
telephone experience any man or
woman we say who goes through
these experiences without some
time or other losing his or her
temper is too good for this earth.
That man or that woman should be
polishing harps for the celestial
orchestra.
