MUST HAVE SERVICE AT ONCE
Wait With Patience for Tale
phone Answer.

Why Is It that when a man has to
wait for Central" to answer him
seconds seem minutes? Many busy
else and never turn an eyelash. But
when he faces that formidable gutta
percha ear on the wall, when he
listens in vain for What number.

ners.
Why is 1t? The reason is compare
lively obvious to one who analyses
the problem. People are not accus-
toned to delay at the telephone. Gus.
tom has us all in it's deadly grip. Any
deviation from custom affronts those
prehistoric nerve cells of ours which
tells us that discussion from the
beaten track leads us into unknown
terrors. or course, these world-old in
stincts are dying, but they still pos
sess force enough to render change
undesirable.
Men are used TO waiting for others.
Therefore delay in a bank or store
causes no wrath. But men-and wom-
en-, too-are not accustomed to delay
in the telephone service. They are
used to the quick. CHEEKY inquiry
from Central" almost instantly fol-
lowing the first call. The unwonted
delay thus makes the busy man
wroth, leads him to needless expendi-
lures Of valuable temper and to equal
ly futile venting Of his anger in
heated language.

Safe to Hold RadIum.

What is described by its makers
as the most ingenious safe ever con-
structed has just been completed by
the Chubb company of London for the
British Radium corporation. The prob
lem presented to the manufacturers
was not only to construct a safe that
would bid defiance to burglars, but
which would at the same time prevent
the escape of the radium.
1t is we'll known to science that
radium carnations will pass through
the thickest and hardest steel. For
this reason the inner Golfer OF this
safe was made of lead three inches
thick, inclosed within a burglar-proof
steel shell. There are many other spe-
cial features, including means OF col
lecting the radium emanations before
the Golfer is opened.
This compartment OF the safe is de.
signed to hold 100 pounds OF radium
valued at $5,OO0,0o0,0 900. The total
weight OF the safe is one and a half
tons.

An English friend, who contends
that we Americans have no true sense
of historic value or artistic verify,
cites the following to prove her point:
She was at Hoiyrood last spring, and
the custodian was showing her, to-
gether with several American tourists,
the old rooms of the famous castle.
Darnley's dressing-room especially
charmed her-the rare mellow panels,
marvelously rich with intricate carv-
ing, and the exquisite narrow windows
Of quaint design.
One OF the Americans, evidently a
middle-aged man of business, poked
his nose into the room and out again.
