choose. is what kind OF associates

not wish in any way to reflect
upon the personnel OF other lines
OF activity that are open to wom-

in The character OF the C. & p.
Telephone organization.
The telephone operators pro-
f'ession appeals to women of re-
hnement and culture. as they are
not brought in direct contact with
the public: they work without
worry or excitement amid con-
genial surroundings. and the
work is mentally stimulating.
During the rest periods. which
are allowed every operator at
stated Intervals. the spacious am
ANSN which are
fitted up for relaxation and rec
reation. resemble more than any
thing else l know OF the reception
hall OF a dormitory at some girls
boarding school. And just as Is
the case in attending boarding
school. We sometimes learn more
that sticks to us in after years
from the friends we meet than we
do in the class rooms. this meet
ing Of congenial. refined CO.
workers is one OF the pIeasantest
features of the work.
When you add up all OF the ad-
vantages enjoyed by the teIe-
phone operstor-congeniaI work,
pleasant surroundings, agreeable
associates, rest rooms. lunch
rooms. where meals are served at
less than cost am sure you will
agree with me that il is certainly
well worth your while to come In

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur
faces of the System thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease. giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in the curative powers of Halls
Catarrh Medicine that they OFFER One
Hundred Dollars for any case that It fails
to cure. Send for list of testimonials.
