NONiE..N..! An Answer
By Hugo Davis

Women are mems better halves and they see that their husbands don't forget it,
 Mother Eve was made out Of Adams rib but some scientists say it must have been the jaw bone. No man believes she's anything but tongue,
 Helen left Troy for Paris who wouldn't and women have been going to Paris ever since.
 Women may be divided into three classes. single, married, and experienced
 Every wife considers herself a prize. always surprised, and seek ing consolation.
 she pretends she abhors flattery, but just ignore hattering her and she will 1atten you out with her coldness.
 If a man shoots his wife he gets the chair. If a woman shoots her husband, the jury rises and asks the lady 10 take their seats.

 A bride wears a bridal veil and the groom puts on all the rest of the harness. including binders. Women are called the weaker sex" but at a bargain counter rush they can put the heftiest halfback out of the play. Woman's place is in the home. no matter whose. Most women are excellent managers.

Her idea of driving an automobile is 10 hold out both , hands and let the wheel take care of itself.
 If husband treats his wife coolly she says he is neglecting her. If he brings her box of candy she says. What have you been up to noW?" Oh Woman, Woman, you are a problem which we can neither solve or give up'

WIRE TAPPING

 SAYS COMP ANY
Juneau Telephone Compa- ny Officer Issues State
 ment on Wire Tapping

Persons. whether officers of the law or others, tampering with the service of the Juneau and Douglas Telephone Company. do so with out permission of that company, and are liable to prosecution for a misdemeanor under Territorial statutes. said a statement issued today by Mrs. Anna Webster, President
 Her comments were caused by inquiries received from patrons 1t was stated. following publication of the fact that wire tapping had been resorted to by Federal prohi- bition agents in securing evidence in the Jim Donald case that wal tried in the T. s. District Court here this week.
 Willing To Assist
 The full statement follows.
 "A number of inquiries have been made al the office of the Telephone Company within the past few days regarding the tap qing of telephone wires by the Prohibition officers.
 "In explanation of this We feel it is due our patrons 10 state that the Telephone Company has not given and will not give parmis- sion to the Prohibition Officers. or anyone else. to tap or otherwise interfere with telephone wires.
 We wish to give every assis- tanee to the officers in enforcing all the laws including the prohibit ton law, but no law authorizes Us to permit any of the officers to interfere with the telephone sery- ice of our patrons
 Was Not Sanctioned
 Considerable misunderstanding seems to have developed as a re- suit of a recent case tried in the District Court. and in explanation Of this we wish to state that the wires which were interfered with in this case were in the apartments of the Prohibition Officers them selves; that is to say, they did not interfere with the service of any other patron. Even this was without the sanction of the tele- phone company and it was not authorized, and no such procedure will be authorized by the com pany.
 "The Telephone Company is g public service corporation. Tn, wires and telephones and all ap pliances belong to the company and are rented to subscribers. ant no subscriber has any right to in terfere with the service. nor tt change the service which tn company furnishes, without per mission of the company.
