Richard Corker once said that he did
not object to fights within an organ
Izntlon, as they aroused interest. That
view Is entirely comfortable for the
man w’ho can be both manager and re
feree.
There Is natural objection to taking
chances on plnelng the government In
a position where it may have to cut
flown salaries to avoid running at a
loss
A scientist estimates that It will
cost $10,000,000 to communicate with
Mars This makes cable rntes compar-
atively low.
There Is a great deal of talk in
Washington Just now regarding the
tariff and Imost none regarding tariff
reform.
At times Castro must feel as worried
as the .‘mall boy on the wrong side
of the fence while a bast ball game
Is going on.
The largest typewriter concern in
the world offers you the best type-;

It was while Irving was rehearsing
"Broket that he told a story of Ten-
■yson that has both pathetic and hu-
morous significance In the earlier
days when The Cup" was In pr<*p»p
atlon. he had been to see Tennuyson
In the Isle of Wight to discuss hli
Ideas for its presentation After din-
ner the dessert and wine were set
out upon a separate table and whan
they were seated the poet asked Irv-
ing if he would like a glass of port.
"Yes. I like a glass of port." replied
the actor.
Upon which Tennyson, taking him
at his word, poured him out a glass
of port and. all unconsciously, fin-
ished the remainder of the bottle him-
self.
Next morning the actor had to leave
and had therefore taken leave of hla
host overnight. Hut he had scarcely
awakened when he saw Lord Tennyt
son sitting at the foot of his bed.
“How are you this morning?” he
Inquired, anxiously.
"Very well, indeed,” was the gueet’e
reply.
“Are you’" came the response, with
Just a tinge of doubt In the tones
of the voice. "You drank a lot of port
last night."
That was Tennyson's way of r*
pentlng after a bottle of port!

The House of Lords.
The higher nobility or peerage of
England contains five ranks: Dukv,
marquis, earl, viscount and baron. Ali
persons holding these titles are mc*a
bers of the upper house of parliament,
where they sit as lords temporal. The
archbishops and bishops of the Es-
tablished church are termed lords
spiritual. They are not peers of the
realm, but have seats in the upper
house.

the maximum of efficiency in hear-
ing or speaking.
Many of them get the lines and
instruments into trouble where-
upon the company, to protect its
service, is obliged to remove them.
Rubber earpiece attachments do
’ "t augment the sounds received.
c*..u often make it impossible to
hang the telephone properly upon
the switchhook. Essentially the
same result can be obtained by
closing one ear with the palm of
the hand. Transmitters can be
kept clean by wiping them.
Telephone instruments, are nec-

In the interest of good service,

The Standard Visible Writer
Our confidence in you is born of our
satisfactory dealings with thousands.
So we oiler the Oliver Typewriter
for a small cash payment and trust
you for all the rest.
This is not a preachment on saving.
It's a plain straightforward, business-
getting proposition. It broadens the
market for Oliver Typewriters by in-
teresting' those who have never thought
of buying a machine. It sends Olivers,
by the hundreds, into homes as well as
offices.
It opens up new money making op-
portunies to ambitious people every-
where.
And we are just as glad to sell a
machine for 17 cents a day as to have
tiie cash with the order.
If you want to know more about the
Oliver—ask the users.
There are a quarter of a million of
them- each and every one an Oliver
enthusiast.
