TO FIX TELEPHONE RATES.

Salisbury Especially At meet
ing of the Salisbury City Council the
controversy between the City Coun-
Gil and the Bell Telephone Company
was thoroughly thrashed out. Under
the new city charter the Council has
the power to compel any public-serv-
Ice corporation to limit its rates, and
the City Attorney has been ordered
to draw up such an ordinance.
Representatives Of the telephone
company were present at the Council
meeting to present their side of the
case, and stated that the new scale
of prices affected only the system yet
to be installed, and that the tele-
phones now in use would be served
for the prices of their original con-
tracts. It Is sintimated that the new
ordinance VIII require the telephone
company to charge not more than
SIS year for residence telephones
and not more than $25 for business
telephones.

HIS EVENING CLOTHES.

whenever I get into evening
dress said a man whose clothes
now at him pretty snugiy, Il am re-
minded of story read once about
French lady who lived in Paris.
This lady had a lovely figure.
whose beauty she sought to enhance
by tight lacing. When she was go
ing out at night she used to lace be-
fore dinner because If she waited un-
til after, why then she couldn't get
herself down to where she wanted
to. So she used to lace and then
eat sparingly, as she was compelled
to, and one night when she had got
herself down particularly fine she
was going to make her dinner on a
dozen raw oysters, which she thought
would be nourishing and satisfying
and at the same time easy to eat
and not bulky: and as she laced she
looked longingly forward to those oy-
sters waiting for her, for she was
hungry as forty cats.
"But do you know that, hungry as
she was, when she came to the oy-
sters she couldn't eat them all? She
couldn't. For she knew that if she
did something would have to give
way. She managed to eat eight Of
them all right and she ate the ninth,
the tenth and the eleventh, but those
last three she ate with a growing
consciousness that she was perilous.
ly close to the limit, and when she
had eaten the eleventh she knew
that she must stop; and so she was
compelled to turn from that last oy-
ster and leave 1t on the plate UNI

PEELED to make for the sake OF what
she conceives to be a perfect waist.

Wild thoughts of burglars and

the only living being in the house

the bell and ring; but, just as she was
moving, the figure turned. He ad-
vanced swiftly towards her, and,

bravely and ask him what he wanted.
she could not; her tongue seemed to
cleave to the roof of her mouth.
