Business Transacted
Quickly at Small Cost

The Long Distance Bell 7 telephone
isplaying an important part in the evolution
Of modem business methods. The progress
i've business man avoids the delays Of letter
writing. and the unnecessary expenditure Of
money and time in travel, by transacting
business over the Long Distance Bell Tele-
phone. Sitting at his desk in his Office he
can consummate business deal in distant
city with as much ease and satisfaction as
he could by being personally present. The
message is given and the reply heard imme-
diately. There is no delay after the party
in the other city is on the line. and the sat
isfaction Of personal talk is feature which
no other agency of communication affords.
The rates for Long Distance Bell
telephone messages are most reasonable. Sew
eraI hundred words can be spoken in three
minutes, and the time saving is an element
which appeals to the business man. Letters
and kilograms require time, and in these
mediums there can be no further thought
than that which is actually written. In a
Long Distance Bell Telephone message
questions are answered Immediately. Amy
new phase Of matter which may arise can
be thrashed out on the spot. The number
Of words it is possible to speak over the
Telephone in three minutes, if sent in tele-
grams. would greatly exceed in cost the rate
for three-minute Long Distance Telephone
message. The Long Distance lines of the
Bell System are so extensive that almost
every important point can be reached by
Telephone.
