pushed over and made to lie ON its

sire is to give efficient and reliable
service. But even a service that
has high average of speed and
accuracy will appear slow to a
man or a woman who is in a hur-
ry. We simply ask that our SUBJ
scribers bear these things in mind
when they use the telephone. We,
are willing for any one to hold a
stop-watch and record the time of
any number of calls. The average,
will show quick service, and it's
the average that counts.
We want every subscriber to re-
ceive efficient service. That is
what we are in business for. If
the service you are receiving does
not appear to you to be efficient,
we want you to report it promptly
to the manager. We will see that
the fault is corrected.

The majority of people who use
the telephone are in hurry. They
want to communicate quickly with
some one and the slightest delay
is likely to cause impotence and
irritation. If a busy man waits a
few seconds for a response from
the operator when he is using the
telephone in haste, these seconds
seem like minutes. If he is told
that the line is busy it is likely to
exasperate him. If telephone
users could see the operators at
work while they are calling, or if
they could see how many others
are to be served at the same time,
as in the case of a bank or in a
store, the seconds that seem so
long would pass unnoticed.

Boring Clam Is Odd.

One of the strangest creatures
known to science is the pholas. or
boring clam. When still very minute
the animal bores into the sandstone
lodges at extreme low water, by
means OF its sharp shell, which is re-
placed by secretion as it is worn
away. 1t penetrates the rock to a
depth of six or eight inches, and hot
lows out its burrow as it increases in
size
Shaped roughly like a top, it could
not leave its rock dwelling even if il
wished to do SO. For food it depends
on the animalcules that float in sea
water, which it seizes by its long
siphon, or tongue. The pholas is in
great demand at the seaside resorts
along the Pacific coast, for its meat
is very tender and makes excellent
soup.-Youth's Companion.
