COURTESY ON TELEPHONE
No Reason Why 1t Should Be Forgot
ten Because One May Be
In a Hurry.

Il thought the telephone was a most
informal instrument" objected one
girl to another who had spoken of tel
ephone etiquette.
Etiquette" said the other, lis SIM
ply courtesy. and naturally one can be
as courteous over the telephone as
anywhere else, but how many of us
are?"
1t certainly is exasperating to be
given wrong number; but to speak
in sharp, angry tone to the person
who answers the phone under such
circumstances is as unjust as it is i'm
polite. Instead of rudely requesting
him to ring off," you should say, 81
beg your pardon" as If you really
meant it.
Many women have an exasperating
way of asking, ''Who is this?" when
someone answers their call whose
voice they do not recognize Always
ask for the person you want to speak
to, and mention who wants her.
In talking to business people be
brief as possible, for their time is
valuable. Girls who have the tele-
phone habit should be made to realize
that it is most embarrassing for en-
plOyees to be called to the phone dur
ing business hours unless the message

SORRY TO HAVE MISSED TRIP
Travellers Regret Is That He Passed
Up Opportunity to Cross the
Sinai Desert.

The difficulties of the Sinai desert
seem to a correspondent to be some
what exaggerated. Ten years ago, he
writes, l visited Jerusalem, Jericho
and the Dead sea on my bicycle, and
on my return journey was tempted to
make the trip from Jaffa to Alexandria
by way of GAIA and the coast. AS the
result of local inquiries land cycling
is not unknown in Palestine, for ! got
the loan of a pump in Jerusalem)
ascertained that the journey would be
only some $50 miles-"six days camel
journey"-and that water would be OBJ
tainable at two places There is no
road" but my experience in Pales-
tine did not make that any disadvan-
tage, for l usually found that camel
than the sort of thing that passes as
a made road in the wilderness of Ju-
dea. Six days by camel would have
meant about four days on cycle, but
as that was the exact time | had in
hand before my boat sailed from Alex
Rndria, came to the conclusion that
there was not enough margin to work
on. To reduce my risks l was pre-
pared to take enough drinking water
and food for the whole journey, no
other equipment being necessary.

made the venture, but that regret is

Vacuum Grooming.

All the houses of the park depart
ment of New York city are now cur
rled and groomed with a vacuum out
tit. 1t carries away all the dust and
dirt and hair that formerly filled the
stable at grooming time. The vacuum
grooming set consists of a high-pres-
sure vacuum fan directly connected
with one-sixth horsepower motor.
The fan revolves in an aluminium case.
to which the vacuum currycomh is
connected by means of long hose.

for he no longer runs the risk of in
fecting his lungs by breathing in the
microbes of disease.

1t says, II am sorry"
It's odd how little sympathy there is
abroad in the world We mean how
little downright frank understanding
that others are really suffering from
things that would not make us suffer;
that others want to do things in which
we see no delight, and don't want to
do things that someone who keeps tab
on the worlds duty says they ought
to do. A man told us the other day
that he had so trained his boy that he
would find few temptations in college.
A lot that man knows about it, doesn't
he? One thing is sure; he will never
hear much of the temptations, for he
couldn't understand. All he could say
would be, MY dear boy, don't see
how you can feel for one moment like
doing these things" And if he can't
understand, he won't be much help to
the boy.
Sometimes when you have felt weak
enough to want a little sympathy, you
haven't gone to the good friend who
was prolific Of advice, have you? Nor
yet to him who looked in pity as on an
abnormal being? But someone who
really cared for you, put his arm
around your shoulder, and-we1 that
was about ALL But it's too bad we
can't remember it oftener.

First "Saratooa chips.w

One of the best ways of cooking
potatoes was accidentally discovered
through the unpunctuality of a train.
When the line from Paris to st. Ger
main was opened, the first train car
r1ed an official party, for whom lunch
was ordered. The meal was fixed
for noon, and shortly before that
hour some potatoes were put on to
fry. A few minutes afterward a mes
sage came that the train would prob
ably be delayed for an hour, so the
potatoes were taken off the fire, but
left in the pan. Then came a second
message. Train just arriving" and
the potatoes were hurried1y put back
to fry again. When the party sat
down to lunch the potatoes were
brought on with a steak. To the de-
light of the guests, each chip was
then fou1d to be blown out like
small, crisp golden balloon. The cook
had unconsciouSy invented pommes
de terre oufflees-London Chronicle.

Have a Good Bed.

In Farm and Fireside contributor,
writing practical article about mat
tresses and other provisions for beds,
makes the following general comment:
I'm furnishing a home the housewife
should give most careful thought to
the beds and their equipment. We
spend at least third of our lives in
bed, and it is worth while to make
that third pleasant and refreshing. The
best mattresses and springs are none
too good when one is storing up
strength for some work. Besides, as is
the case with most household pur-
chases, the best are really the cheap

West Africans Use Soap Freely.

In all parts of West Africa there
are evidences that for centuries be-
fore the native began to import or to
buy European cotton goods from the
European trader who came hither,
they grew their own cotton and wove
on hand looms their own cotton goods.
They also manufactured soap, and
have made free use of it in keeping
both their clothes and bodies clean,
as may be observed by those who
travel through the country. Some
wash their bodies, as a religious cere-
mony, two and three times a day.
This is necessary, as the natives oil
their skins as protection against the
painful effects of the sun. They also
delight in their white, flowing gowns

is very important, and that an en-
ployer is not pleased, to say the least,
when he sees his clerks wasting his
time talking social matters over the
telephone.
Don't impose upon your friends
good nature by telephoning from
house or office without offering to pay
for the call. Above all else, when you
phone "cut it short" 1t is difficult to
realize that pleasure can be had from
gossiping into hole in the wall but it
is temptation to many. Say what
you have to say and get through with
1t. Don't keep the wire occupied with
aimless chatter when, perhaps, it is
urgently needed for an important mes
sage.
