And listens to voices from everywhere
She hears all the gossip. she hears all the
news,
She knows who is happy and who has
the blues,
She knows all our sorrows. she knows
all our Joys,
She knows every girl VINO is chasing
the boys;
She knows Of our troubles, she knows OF
our strife.
She knows every man who is mean to
his WIFE
She knows every time we are out with
the boys.
She hears the excuses each fellow en-
ploys.
She knows every woman who has dark
past.
She knows every man who's inclined to
be fast,
In fact there's a secret meath each saucy
curl.
OF that quiet demure looking telephone
girl.
II the telephone girl would tell all she
knows.
It would turn half our friends into Bit
terest foes,
She would SOW small wind that would
soon be a gale,
Enguf us In trouble and land us in Jail,
She could let go story (Which gaining
In force)
Would cause half our wives to sue for
divorce.
She could get all the churches mixed up
IN fight
And turn all our days into sorrowing
night
In fact she could keep the whole town
in n stew,
II she'd tell n tenth part of the things
that she knew.
Now doesn't II make your head awhirl.
When you think what you owe TO the

BIRTH RATE IN EUROPE.

(From the New York TribuneD
The birth rate Is more than twice
as large in Russia as II Is in Franco,
In Normandy. where the birth rate Is
lowest, the births at times fall as low
as Is to the 1000 inhabitants In a
year. But in Russia there are many
districts. as in Orenburg, where tho
births are as high as go to the 1000
in year. Notwithstanding the enor-
nous emigration from Europe In tho
18th century, its population now Is
nearly double that 1t was at tho be-
ginning Of the century. That part Of
Great Britain occupied by England Is
now the most densely peopled region
in Europe. The crowding of so many
millions together is at last having the
effect of diminishing tho birth rate.
statistics show that 1t has declined
one-fourth in the last IS wears. II
this goes on the English birth rate
will soon be as small as that Of
France. In some parts of Germany as
in Berlin, the birth rate is on the de.
cline.
