Telegraphing costs money-nearly
5000, 100000 per year, aside from dis
patching and from maintenance
The expense is justified only when
speed is absolutely essential.
The Importance of many messages
is exaggerated. Therefore, telegraph
lines have been unduly burdened,
Millions of messages are handled
over our wires annually. Every mes
sage requires at least two operators to
handle, and many require the addi-
tional services OF a Stenographer and
messenger.
From recent checking fully twenty
per cent of all messages transmitted
percentage of unnecessary words were
found in necessary messages.
If you are one of the employees that
has been sending unnecessary mes
sages, or necessary messages with SUI
perfluous words in them, you can save
your nickel a day by stopping it.
The sender can save more than any
one else by being concise, and using
the mails instead Of telegraph wires.
The sending operator can help by
calling attention to unnecessary words
in messages.
The receiving operator will assist
greatly by answering calls promptly
and having writing materials located
conveniently.
The receiver can save many mes
sages by answering promptly and
avoiding tracers.

Woman Seeking Separation Does Not
Endorse Statement.

Springfield, Mass, July 3.--These
precepts for the guidance of wives and
husbands in cases OF difference over
household economics were laid down
by Judge Charles L. Long in the
separation case brought by Mrs. Edith
Marsh against Henry D. Marsh, assist

1.-THE husband is absolute lord and

He is entitled to his meals at any
hour he wants them.
HE may select such food as he
chooses. If he wants one food and his
wife another, the husbands decision
goes.

More Direct Southern Route From

Limited" from St. Louis to Galveston
and other Texas cities. These trains
now pass through this city. Besides
the saving in the cost Of operation of
trains over the 81 mile cutoff and the
increased business to Joplin, the saw
ing of more than an hour from st.
Louis to Galveston can not be over
estimated, for the reason that COM
petition is keen among the railroads in
the landing of the government con-
tract to carry mail to Texas points. The
Katy always regarded as a fast road TO
Texas, would gain even greater i'm
portance in that respect.
Although the rumor is reputed as
coming from a high official. John J.
Daggy, commercial agent for the Katy
at Joplin, still there IS little cause to
worry.
No information along this line has
been given out by the local Katy Of
fees. Should the plan be contem-
plated it is more than likely that the
Fort Scott Offices would be cognizant
of it.

MCCORMICK A Filler.
Chicago Millionaire Operates Machine
of His Own Design.

Chicago. July S.-H. F. Mccormick,
multi-millionaire, has made q fight
IN an aeroplane which he designed and
had built under his own direction.
Mr. Mccormick did not wish undue
publicity given to his flights, and for
that reason he visited the aviation field
at a time when he would be least likely
to attract attention. On one occa-
sion he drove out to the grounds at
o'clock in the morning. Yesterday he
rose from the ground several times,
making short glides that covered the
length of the field.
The Mccormick machine enbodies an
entirely new idea. The wings or planes
instead Of being crosswise, are length
wise. The idea is to give the machine
longitudinal stability, in other words
TO lessen the DANCER OF taking a header.
