A writer in tho World'a Work says that in the corn belt tele phone system are found almost every where. For cheapness fifteen or twen ty subscribers nro put on tho nam circuit This arrangement prevents privacy, but open and honest folk do not need privacy. They need commu nication, and that the common tele phone insures. Whatever one snys over the tele phone all can hear who feel disposed, and tho recognized custom Is free from tho stigma of eavesdropping. A long distance meeting is a genial thing. Tho telephone bell rings. Tho visitor from tho East takes down tho receiver, and in accordance with the custom of the country, docs not scruple to listen. This 1b the sort of homely and good natured conversation which he hears: , First Fcmalo Voice Is that you, Sarah? Second Female Voice Yes, it's me. First Femnlo Voice Have you got your dishes washed? Second Female Voice No. We're Just through breakfast. First Female Voice What did you have for breakfast? Second Female Voice Fried mush, and eggs, and pork, and say, what did you have? First Female Voice Oh, wo had Oraham gems. Wc'ro going to havo roasting cars for dinner. Third Femalo Voice (breaking in) Bo nro. we.

Who Is go lug to imvo tho elder for dinner? Fourth Fcmalo Voice Ho has prom ised to come to our house. Second Female Volco Well, I must go do my dishes. Third Fcmalo Voice So must I. Good-byl Voices in Chorus Good-byl (One by one the receivers click luto place, and tho wire hums emptily.) UNCLE SAM 18 EXACT. Contractor Held to Strict Letter of Ilia Agreement. "No, sir," said n man In tho Phila delphia Telegraph, "you can't do busi ness with Uncle Sam in a spirit of a contract; you simply must obey Its lotter. If you put in specifications amounting to 'steen dollars and 21 cents and then bill it goods under tho contract nnd the total amounts to the same 'steen dollars aiid 10 cents, you've got to tako it back find mako up the other 2 cents, or you don't do business. "Let mo glvo you an instance of Undo Samuel's character for exact ness. Wo wore awarded a contract for 1,000 feet of copper wiro for League Island. Wo sent tho order to tho man ufacturers and they turned In tho stuff. Iu a few days wo got a letter from tho Island authorities that that wlro was only 085 feet long. "Wo answered that wo knew it, that the copper Ingot did not yield any moro nnd tiiat we charged them only for 085 feet. Would that do? Not a bit of It "They sent us word that if that wire was not brought up to 1,000 feet the lot would bo rejected. Then wo had to get a permit to send a man down to join on enough to mako the demand good and ho went down and did the work. "In n few days wo wero notified that tho piece ho put on made tho wholo length 1,004 feet. Wo wroto back that we didn't caro for tho four feet and Uncle Sam could have It, "Next morning comes an order to cut off that four feet or tho wholo bunch would bo rejected. Then wo had to got another permit for our man to go down and lop It off, which he did. "Woa it all plain sailing then? I should say not. When he threw tho offending excess upon tho ground tho guard Bald: "'Pick that up; that's against tho rules.' "Ho picked it up nnd was about to toss it into the river, when ho -was stopped in a mandatory way: " 'nere, you do that and you'll get yourself into troublol' "So, thinking he'd find a resting placo outsldo of tho government re serves, our employe walked to tho gate, where ho found a sentlnol. " 'What havo you got thero?' " 'A pleco of wire. "You can't carry it out without a permit.' "'AH right I don't want to,' and cast It down. " 'You pick that up,' Bald tho senti nel. 'You can't throw things around hero. " But I don't want tho blame thing.' " 'Go Imck and got a permit!' "And ho really had to do it to got that four feet of wire outside of Undo Sam's fence. Now, wouldn't that moke you tired?" History I'roveil It. Friends of Cuesur warned him that trouble wuh due. "Uowaro of thut fellow Brutus," Uiey told him. 'nut why?" asked Cuesar. "I can not think ho would hurt me. IIo has a good reputation." "We know," replied tho friends, "but ho is an awful cut-up." Subsequent events proved tho truth of their assertion.
