BOY HAD NOT UNDERSTOOD.
Pretty Phrase That Was Most Woe

That the effect of a choice and ap-
propriate phrase is sometimes lost

During the mans Illness the wires
were disconnected which attached the

A messenger boy came to the house
one morning and began pulling at
the bell. There was no response.

ERRORS OVER THE PHONE
Some Are Amusing, Others Humorous
One Of the Latter.

II some enterprising gentleman
should set 70 work to write a treatise
entitled Errors Over the Telephone"
he could find sufiiciency of them in
any single community, says the Bos.
ton Herald. Some of these are rath.
er annoying; some cause considerable
irritation, as any person who resorts
to the phone frequently can testify
and some. again, are SO funny in their
results as to take away the annoyance
caused by the laundering.
One of the latter happened one
evening last week. The hour had ar.
rived when two men, professional as,
sociates and occupying the same
room in prominent building. decided
that they should dine. To avoid hav.
Ing to wait for their meal when they
reached the establishment they intend
ed to patronize, they decided to order
1t over the telephone.
A couple Of fine steaks. with the
usual trimmings. were agreed upon
and the order therefor was made in
due form. Soon afterward with good
apletites they entered their res
taurant. Everything was ready, and
the courteous waiter escorted them to
their table. The steaks were already
there - two fine. large raw sirloin
steaks.

men. What do you mean by setting

Beg pardon. sir" said William. the
walter; that's what you ordered over
the phone.
Both of the patrons understood al
once. They had ordered rare steaks
and the order as the chop house peo
pie got It from the telephone was raw
steaks. The mistake was not so Sc
rious as to put either OF the gentle
men in a bad humor. The walter was

Sheer white goods, In fact. any fine
wash goods when new, owe much Of
their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau
ty. Home laundering would be equal
ly satisfactory If proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and
you will be pleasantly surprised at the
improved appearance Of your work.

Laundry work at home would be

Starch were used. In order TO get the
desired stiffness. It is usually neces-
sary TO use so much starch that the
beauty and fncncss of the fabric is
hidden behind paste OF varying
thickness. which not only destroys the
appearance, but also Affects the wear

BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch. as it can be applied
much more ;hinly because of its great

that earnings are likely to continue on a scale to maintain dividends. The sus- pension of work on the railroads affects only the ability of the companies to earn more money on an enlarged volume of traffic. Present facilities are over taxed and are inadequate to take care of the business continuously offered. Inability to get the capital necessary to keep the railroads abreast of the country is to the embarrassment of the people vastly more than 1t is to the railroads.
 With increased facilities tho people could get quicker and better service and do Q great deal more business. Attacks on corporation credit is reacting on the community at large. It Is proving a boomerang and Is hurting those respon- sble for the attack as well as the rail- roads. 1t Is proving to be like a man trying to paralyze his legs as pre- lminary to effective pedestrianism.

ing is very greatly exaggerated. but this position Is incorrect. The investment is actually in evidence, and is steadily ab- sorbing the floating supply or desirable stocks From all over the country orders are pouring In to buy shares, these orders ranging from little lots of 3 and shares up into the thousands. The notion that this buying is all in odd lots is mistake
 The impulse to take advantage of tho bargains now offered extends from the thrifty poorer and middle classes to tho very rich. The temptation to get into standard railroad stocks on basis of 8 and per cent Is proving irresistible.
 Everybody realizes that the railroads are doing all the business they can handle and that the outlook Is for continua- ton of heavy tonnage movement TO- gardless of any business depression that is likely to be seen.

tions. The wiser course was taken and business men throughout the length and breadth of the land owe to the news papers a debt of gratitude. Without the active cooperation of the press the ef- forts of all the Morsans and the Rocke- fellers and the Cortelyous would have been futile.
 Canned interviews bolstering up cour- age are quite the thing. The colums of the newspapers are full of them. They are welcome and do their share in put ting nerve into the backbone.
 Buying and selling of shares on mar gins is again being indulged in with moderation. For a week or more com- mission houses turned down business of this kind except where they had to take care of customers of long standing who insisted on being allowed to stay in the game. The plungers were barred out. however, and given no show whatever for indulging in their favorite propen- sity.

 The part played by the newspapers in restoring confidence is only dinly under stood. They have been acting in con- cert with the banking and business ln- terests In minimizing the bad features of a dangerous situation and in contributing to good feeling in every way possible. They have had enough news material to have kept the community and the entire country ablaze with excitement and fear. The great mass of this went into the waste basket instead of into type. To a very considerable extent this course of action was dictated by motives of self preservation, but tho work accom- plished was none the less effective ana commendable. It would have been with in the power of the newspapers to have literally wrecked the entire business com munity by simply printing the news. but such a course would have been suicidal and would have reacted on the publica-

it's own in the west. This, too, may be destined for absorption by the trust.
 It can get along very well without the Colorado company. but inasmuch as the latter is largely owned by John D. Rockefeller, sufficient pressure may be brought to bear to bring about its pur- chase. Standard OH influence is very strong in the Steel trust. Only two or three years ago junk pile up at Troy, N. Y., owned by the Rockefellers was taken over by the trust at cost of A. 600. 900 to S5,o00000 and thrown into tho scrap heap. It was called mill and was of no more value to the buyer than a section of the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. The money paid for 1t might as well have been taken out of the street and burned up. Anything paid for the Colorado Fuel and Iron by the Steel trust would be equally as wasteful.
