EDITOR TELLS SUBSCRIBERS
ABOUT HIS PHONE SERVICE

There is nothing more exasperating
than to attempt to talk over a bum"
telephone. We say attempt" advised
ly, for the reason that the instrument
called a telephone in this office is
about as near a useless a piece of ap-
pliance as one could find in the travels
of a lifetime. People who have bust
ness with the postoffice or The Herald
office are informed that we have
made every effort to have an instru-
ment installed that would be of some
service at least, but without success.
Patience is said to be a Cody virtue
and the person who can stand for the
phone in this office without taking an
axe to it is sanity indeed. The in
strument is neither useful nor orna-
mental, but seems to be a thing of ex-
asperation forever
We still have hopes of receiving a
better instrument in the sweet bye
and bye.-Nevada State Herald.
