limited telephone call, for the brook
can be frozen up by the cold. but even
though you throw 40 degree below
zero tone into your voice, 1t doesn't
even chill the conversational powers of
a woman at the other end of a wire
that she pays for by the year. She's
got to get even with the telephone

one of her nearest and dearest friends.
The woman with the telephone habit

hint, the only thing that would make
anv impression on her understanding
would be a stone Ratchet Apparently,
she takes a malicious joy in calling you
ups at the psychological moment when
you are dropping off to sleep for an
afternoon nap, or when you are just
sitting down to dinner.
It doesn't make any difference to her,
bless you, that your soup is getting
cold, and the family waiting for you,
or that you are being torn away from
your guests; for woman who is in
ficted with 'telephonitis'' is oblivious
of other peoples rights and caIlous to
their sufferings. All that she wants to
do is just to talk. though she never
has anything to say; but telephone
affects her as glass of whiskey does
confirmed drunkard. She simply
can't pass it by.
If the telephone is a vice with older
women, it spells simply decentralization
for girls; and if had young daugh-

I would give the baby a loaded pistol

The Decline of GaIIantry.
1t is to the telephone that we may
we'll attribute the decline in gallantry,
among modern young men, for it is the
common habit of young women to pes
ter young men to death by calling
them up over the phone.
IF you could hear the way that
young ladies call up men over the
phone and just simply beg and plead
with them to come to see them, and IL
you could hear the mushy stuff that
these girls talk over the phone to
young men, it would make you sick. ="

she asked: What makes them do it?
I don't believe they would say those
things to men If they were face to
face with them. What makes them
talk Stiffness over the wire when so
many people can hear it?"
I couldn't answer her, but I knew
that she spoke the truth, for I have
known more than one young man who
lost his job because he spent too much
time to answer telephone calls from
girls.

w HEN we reflect on the modern

and how much better off we
are than our forebears. we always be-
gin the list Of our blessings with the
telephone.
''Only think of poor, dear. great
grandmama,' we say. with pity in our
voices, "she never had a telephone.
And then. as the sharp ring of a bell
interrupts our rhapsody. we exclaim,
''Drat that telephoneI" and a passing
thought crosses our mind that If
grandmama didn't have a telephone,
neither did she acquire nervous pros
tration having to answer one
Of course we couldn't do without the
telephone now. 1t is as much neces-
sity as food and drink, as house and
clothes; but If ever there was a good
thing that leaned GO evils side. a con-
venient inconvenience, a mixed bless

Oh. I know all that you can say

Much has been said in derision Of

that they fight differently and think

ON GUARD on THE RIO eRANDE.

From st. Louis (Mo.) Globe-Democrat
Enough mystery is back OF that
movement of troops 10 the Rio Grande
to make it decidedly interesting
as remote from each other as New
York and San Francisco, and Fort
Smelling, in Minnesota, and Fort Nc
Pherson, in Georgia
The Washington explanation of this
mobilization sounds like q, tale for the
marines. Other reports. however. from
the same center may give some light
on the real reason for the mobiliza-
ton. One of these is that Dlaz, who
is 80 years of age, is in poor health,
and there is a fear that if he should
die or abdicate risings would take
place all over Mexico, against which
his successor could make no Roadway.
Another is that the situation in Chi
huahua and other rebellious localities
is worse than the Mexican authorities
pretend, or than our government real
lied a week ago when it said that
no more troops would be sent to Texas
Still another report is that the Brit
ish ambassador at Washington has
asked the state department what our
intentions are as regards possible in
tervention, saying that if we should
fail to step in to protect the property
of foreigners, England might be com
PEELED to act in defence of her own
citizens.
Possibly the last named s.tory ac-
counts for the sudden change in atti-
tude by our authorities. If tne object
was merely to train the offit ers and
soldiers in the drilling and m. newer
ing large bodies of troops it would
seem that there are points mere CEN
trail than Texas at which the mobiliza-
ton could take place.

THE TRooP MOVEMENT.

Texas is on the map with 10000 reg
ulars, of all arms, to be distributed
along the Mexican border with head
quarters at San Antonio Mobilization
is merely for the purpose Of testing
the efficiency of the army, it is said.
Now our Socialist friends will get, busy
and make old welkin ring with their
shrill warhoops. President Taft will
be accused OF sending troops to the
Mexican border to overaWe the pa
triots who are insuring against the
government of Diaz and Wall street

Helen was picturing the disappoint-

had even spent carfare in the hopes
OF selling her something. She could

IF you could use any of those

haven't sold anything today and I must
sell something. If only to get carfare.
Do you think you could use this $3.50
one of that design I have left"
After few moments hesitation
Helen said she would take ii and went
into her bedroom for her pocketb0ok-
When she came back the man had laid
the collar out and was feeling over the
others.
Now, isn't there anything else you'd

wouldn't care for any doilies?"
no, 4 lAA11k AON-
And you couldn't use another one

No, that will be all"
He restrapped the black case. felt
for his cane, thanked her, and the boy
led him out to the hall
It was not until several moments
later that Helen realized what she had
done She had bought the collar be-
cause she had wanted to help this
blind man And yet she had allowed
him TO sell it with little or no profit,
taking advantage of his desperate need
for carfare!
