international consequence, is ojtuin

Too many home runs are now said
to have stated the public palate and
sacrificed the rcientific side of base
ball to the business of slujririnK.

When women chat of Autumn clothes a Hat
comes first always. Perhaps they know how a

that come with each season. At any rate, this
is the time to choose the Hats of this Autumn.

"The Line is Busy"
When the telephone operator tells you " the line la
1 .usy," Ih ia fact has beeri made known to her by an elec
trical signal, which in the fraction of a second auto
matically indicates that the line called for is in use. 1
When "busy" reports are repeated on successive
wills for the same number, it is generally due to. an
immoderate use of the called line. The length of a
telephone conversation is obviously beyond the control
of the telephone operator. Have confidence in her
wl in she makes the report, "the line is busy." .
