tends over two hemispheres and half
a century of activity, tells this story

phone AID TO mArRlmoNx.
Girl with One In Her Home Always
Popular with YOUNG Men.

Popular with Young Men.
IL is needless to say that the tcle-
phone is great institution, says the
Utica Press. II has long been an alb
solute essential in every place of bust
ness. Just now there is a great in
crease in the number of phones in pri-
vate houses. 1t is possible to talk
with pretty much every bodyn at his or
her home. The companies are evil
IDENTIFY endeavOring to BOOM that
branch Of their business, becauseAthey
are advertising extensively. The
other day St. Louis paper had big
display ad at the top of which was a
picture of an attractive young lady
telephoning and represented as say
ing: 'Is that you, Harry?" The text
beneath it includes this statement:
1T is well-known fact that the girl
who has telephone is the girl who
has the most friends and consequently
has the best time"
This appeal to the young people is
adroit and doubtless will serve to
make the st. Louis exchange bigger
and buster. The parents who have
manageable daughters will do well
to consider this ingenious continuance
and modern aid TO matrlmOny. 1t is
something of bother for a young
man TO call or even to write a note
asking the young lady TO go to the the
alter, go for a walk or drive or ride
to the park. but If he can transmit the
message by telephone it is an easy
way of making an appointment
Many delicious message is tele
phoned these days and there is reason
to believe the statement made by the
St Louis company. II applies, of
course, with equal force in every
American city. The young ladies for
whom: life of single blessedness has
no charms are not exactly buying a
lottery when they hire a phone. They
can get much pleasure and comfort
out of it as they go along, for it is
constant contributor to convenience
1t is worth the price, with the enhanc.
ed matrimonial possibility thrown in
as an extra inducement.

DECISION HANDED DOWN
IN MUNICIPAL COURT
DENIES CLAIM OF G0ETz-
LER & SON FOR SI39.

The case of Goetzler & Son, contract
ors, against the city, in which the plain
tiff firm sued for $l39 alleged to be due
them for work done at the new public
library building last year was decided
in favor of the city last Friday in the
municipal court. The decision by which
the suit of the plaintiff firm was denied
was based on the fact that, although the
council committee had favorably report
ed the bill presented, the council had
never allowed the claim. Judge Cratic
represented the plaintiffs, while l.. j.
Nash appeared for the city. The claim
is for gas fitting at the library and both
Goetzler q Son and Knickelbein x
Dummer allegc that they are entitled to
pay for the work The conflict of claims
turns on the question as to what the dis
tinction is between plumbing and gas
fitting. Knickelbein q Dummer will
probably sue for the claim. While the
city is willing to satisfy the claim, it
has been unable to determine which Of
the claimants is entitled to the money.
Goetzler q Son Will probably take an
appeal.
Later-It is now probable that the city will
pay the claim of Goetzler Il Son, notwith-
standing the fact that the court denied the
suit of the claimant
