Is the Telephone An ANGEL In the House?

8 the telephone a blessing or a
~ curse, and If so, why?" is one of
the questions of the hour.
"A curse" replies one woman
promptly, and gives her reasons. She
sat down at ten o'clock the other
morning, she says, to write an article
that must be ready for the printers
devil at 100. She was alone in her
workroom for expeditions sake, and
yet not alone for the telephone was
with her, an instrument that can be-
come as nagging as the voice of con-
science. And it SO became. for this
is what happened:
A connection by marriage called up
the woman to talk about the frailities
of the formers husband and discussed
these for fifteen minutes by the clock.

yards of, silk were required to make
a kimono.
The chairman of a Red Cross Com
mittee telephoned a request that the
woman take tickets for a card party
and an unknown telephoned demand
for a reference for a late cook.
At five minutes to twelve the woman
took the receiver of the telephone off
it's hook and mildly but firmly placed
it upon the desk, and by that heroic
means was enabled to beet her en-
gagement with the devil at the ap-
pointed hour.
To the question, is the telephone a
blessing or a curse, she answers with
out hesitation. But when she wishes
a physician summoned in the middle
of the night hers is another story.

keep single promise and instead
revoked every reform that had been
introduced during the days when the
revolution assumed dangerous pro-
portions. At the outset of the present
European War and for a long time
afterward Lvoff risked his liberty,
property and even his life, by his &C
tivity as one of the organizers of the
work of the Zemstros Unions-local
committees formed by the loyal peo-
pie of Russia in many provinces to
do the necessary war work that the
Central Government at Petrograd
failed to do. These Unions were
backed by the Duma and with money
obtained from the Government and, in
many cases, from loyal provinces they

: rs Years
Ago Today

(From the social column of the Mis-
soula Gazette of Saturday, February 20,
1892. No Sunday paper was printed by
the Gazette.)
The week has been less lively than
the two Immediately preceding it, but
its brilliancy has been saved by the
K of p. ball, which took place last
evening. 1t was. as might have been cX-
pected, a splendid and notable event
calling out many people who are not
enthusiastic dancers and holding them
spell bound the slaves Of pleasure, un-
til the last strains OF Races beautiful
music had died away and the janitor
came around to put out the lights.
The supper was a surprise even to
those who expected much and was
easily the most varied which has been
served to any public affair this season.
There We're oysters in two styles, three
kinds Of salad, four kinds of meat and
ice cream and delicious fruits.
In Il desultory discussion which took
place recently over the everlasting
question of the cost of moving in So
ciety, two gentlemen well qualified to
do so, made some calculations of this
seasons expenses which may prove in
teresting to readers of this column. The
estimates are for the expenditures up
to Lent of an imaginary bachelor, who
thoroughly in the swim. has taken in
everything and let nothing go by him;
but they do not include anything which
may not be properly included in the
cost of socialiZing. The social club
dances, ten in number up to Lent, with
an initiation fee and hack fare, make
an item of $40, with $3.50 added for the
pink domino party. Suppers after the
club dances are so infrequent that the
item may be omitted. Ten other dances,
more or less. with tickets at 50, supper
and hack at 81 more. make $40, in
which may be included cost of tram
sportation for two or three dances at
the Fort. Hack fare and two seats at
the theater Is times gives another
item of $3.50. Surprising the bachelor
not to have owned a rig of his own,
the social items of his livery bills have
been too much mixed up with business
and other items to be intelligently
separated, but he may be accredited
with having socialized on wheels or
runners to the extent of $50 worth.
This would give him n sleigh ride Il
week while the snow lasted and one
or two extras and would be none TOO
large an estimate. For the skating rink,
cravats and gloves for full dress,

HIGH SCHOOL FIVE
TO HELENA-TODAY
Coach Garrison With Seven
Men to Tournament.

Coach Garrison and the members of
the Missoula county High school bas-
ketball team leave this morning for
Helena, where they will play in. the
district basketball tournament which
begins tomorrow night. The Missoula
team will meet Butte tomorrow night
in the first game of the tournament,
and will have to put up a hard battle
as defeat will probably eliminate
them from the state tournament at
Bozeman in March.
Coach Garrison will be accompanied
by the following players: Herman
Schlossberg, Burdette Lanning, Dwight
Carver, William Courtney, George
Crouch, Charley Joy and Babe Marion.
The first five will compose the regular
lineup, while Joy and Marion are TAX
en- along as substitutes.
While the tournament does not be-
gin until tomorrow night. Principal
Ketcham and Coach Garrison decided
to send the team over today, so that
the boys will get u chance to rest up
for the first game. The Missoula team
has been allotted from $3.50 to 4
o'clock tomorrow afternoon for prac-
tice in the Helena gymnasium.

and other incidentals, $50 more may be
added. and the items will be found to
foot up to $166. These expenditures
cover a period of about twenty weeks
and arc doubtless greatly in excess of
the actual expenses of any one man in
the city, for the reason that they are
figured on the basis of Il constancy and
devotion to society which no man, not

the reason that the cost of dress suit,
the only additional clothing needed by

stand, the average man will admit the
truth of the proposition made in this

that the cost of socializing is less
than any other known form of mental
distraction and relaxation from the
cares Of life. Indeed, with the ex-
penditufc of something less than $40 Il

Helena, Feb. Cot may have been
very likely 1t was--an oversight on
tho part of Chairman Thomas Kehoe
of the ways and means committee that
he introduced the report OF his com.
mittee this afternoon instead Of to.
morrow morning as promised and
thereby prevented a minority report on
the tax bill. AS it was. Representative
Higgins managed to put up quite lit
tie fight against the measure which
will be renewed tomorrow when the
bill comes before the house. His mo-
ton to reject the report Of the COM
mittce was lost by an aye and nay
vote. Missoula countys representative
had prepared a minority report to be
submitted with the majority report
from the ways and means committee.
Having been assured. however, that the
report would not be made until to-
morrow morning, only one report came
before the house for consideration.

The report of the committee is SUBJ
stantially as given in Monday morn
ings Muscular and provides for a
three quarters Of one per cent tax on
all corporations on their net incomes
over 100000. THE bill does not equal
lie taxes" said Representative Hig-
gins. 1T is purely a revenue bill and
does not in any way provide the ad-
justment asked for. think the meas
urc which I introduced would come
closer to solving the problem and I
wanted to get this question before the
house in a minority report"
