I SPORTSMAN and TELEPHONE EVERY TIME a man wants to get away from all connection with the busy world, the telephone is an important helper. The local service is useful in arranging his affair.3 at home, and the Long Distance service of the Bell System helps him to decide where to go and what to take. By means of his Bell telephone he can find out whether the fish are biting or the birds arc flying, and whether guides or horses can be secured. After he has been out a while if he wants to get word from the city, the nearest Bell telephone is a friend in need. Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co. Every Be Telephone is he Centre of the System.

Ia It really getting ad Decent man a (it muet throw When they pause to contemplate Sadly the affair of state? Men who go for fame or luck, Stirring with a rake the muck. And who apeak, not In a hush. Tell ua things to make us blush; They opine from what they see Without climbing In a tree That the graft on every aide Is the limit, open wide.
