"John Jones," may be the reply. "Well,
is Charley Brown there?" "Nol lie is
out just now." "When will he be in?"
"Can't say; who shall we say called
him up ?" "Oh, never mind j I'll ring
again if 1 want him." And so the in
struments are hung up, and when
Charley returns, and wants to know if
he has been wanted at the phone, the
only thing to tell him is that he has been
called for, but by what impolite friend,
or enemy or from what number it is im
possible to say. This man who wanted
Charley Hrown manifestly should have
introduced himself directly ho placed
the transmitter to his lips. "This is

Miller'.'" "Yes, hold the phone an i 1
will call him." Or. if Mr. Mill. r h ip
penstobe out. "(livens your number,
please and we will have him tally-on
when he conies back." It must be ad
mitted that this interchange of courtesies
presents a wide contrast to the brusque
and impertinent method too much in
vogue. A gentleman should be a gentle
man at the telephone, as wvll as on the
sidewalk, or at the front door. Moral :
Answer no telephone call until you have
been apprised of the name of the send
er. Here is a good formula to attain
that end :
Man at 'phone "Hello! Hello! Who
is this?"
Voice from the other end of the lint
"How do I know? Look yourself up
and see!"

BEACH LAKE.
May 31st. Nothing unusual at

WHICN THE NOSE BLEEIiS.
When the nose is bleeding never
nold it over a basin or hold the head
down in any way. This only causes
Inrtnor rush of blood to the broken
t'ssties in tho nose. The head should
bo hold up and back, the How being
aught in handkerchiefs or cloths.
One of the most effective and simple
n.eaiis of checking a nosebleed is to
press on the upper lip. Near the
iindersurfaee of the lip runs the ar
tery that supplies the Interior nasal
passages where tho ruptures occur.
If this is pressed, the How of blood Is
mechanically cheeked, thus allowing
the blood around the broken tissues
to congeal and seal up the opening.
If merely pressing with tho finger
does not succeed, place a wad of pa
per under the lip and fold the Hp
over It, holding it down tight. Again,
if this does not succeed and a drug
store is near, get some adreaalin,
saturate a piece of cotton with it and
apply to the Interior of the nose from
where the blood flows.
The Most Important Points of a Good
Dairy Cow's Body.
The dairy type of cattle shows a
wedged shaped body, very full In the
abdominal region and apparently
small In the ribs and chest. This
small appearance In front is part due
to contrast with tho abdomen. Real
ly a good cow for any purpose should
have a reasonable capacity of chest,
for the efficiency of the lungs and
heart Is a matter of tho first Import
ance.
A good dairy cow should stand
lower at the shoulder than at the
hips; the hips are broad, tho tall
sets in square, rather longer and thin
ner than in the beef type. Tho quar
ters and limbs are light, carrying lit
tle flesh. Tho batk outline of the
hind leg is hollow, so that tho ud
der Is visible at both sides of tho
thigh to an observer standing the
side of the cow opposite the hind
quarter. The udder should bo well
developed, placed forward and close
up to the body, with all tho quar
ters of equal size. It should be
elastic in substance, free from lumps
or nodules, not fleshy, and the skin
at tho back should bo reasonably
loose. The teats should be of a
reasonable size, sot equal distances
apart. Tho milk veins under the ab.
domen should bo prominent and Ir
regular in their course. Tho neck Is
light throughout, and the head long
and apparently narrow between tho
eyes. This appearance Is due to
tho muzzle of the dairy cow being so
much broader. The eyo is large and
mild, giving the Impression of quiet
Intelligence with a certain amount
of nervousness, yet without timidity.
The skin Is not unduly thin, but It
has not tho mellow touch of tho
beef type. Tho hair is silky, rather
than furry.
Although the dairy cow has none
of the blocky appearance of the beef
animal, and her appearance should
indicate good, sound health. A del
icate appearance Is always suspicious.

STEENE.
May 31st. One hundred and fifty
thousand pounds of milk is the daily
average delivered at the Prompton
creamery so far this season.
Mr. and Mrs. William Wright and
iamily, of Carbondale, are spending a
few days with the latter's parents, Mr.
and Mrs. John Haley, here.
Mr. and Mrs. Richard Pierce ore spend
ing a week witli friends in Pike county.
If two strangers phouldmcet upon the
street, and one should demand of the
other his name, in some such rude and
curt forinulaas "Who are you I" it goes
without saying that the reply would not
be over courteous. If an utter stranger
should walk up to the door of a private
residence, ring the bell, nnd accost
whoever might answer the summons
with a peremptory demand for the name
of tho owner or occupant of the house,
lie would probably iind himself prompt
ly kicked down the front steps. And
yet samples of this sort of boorishness
come under the observation of all users
of telephones nearly every day of their
lives, and not a few who read these
lines, may be guilty of the same offence
themselves. An alarm at the phone nt
tracts attention, and it is an exception
when the person who takes down the re
ceiver is not called upon to give nn ac
count of himself ns a preliminary to

Who Columbus Was.
In the afternoon in all the schools
a part of tho time was devoted to the
rtudy of the life and deeds of Colum
bus. .in amusing reply was given by one
of uho pupils. A teacher had told the
czsa of the wonderful voyage of Co
lumbus and how he Insisted on con
tinuing the voyage after the other
men were clamoring to return. Then
che asked: "Who was Columbus?"

they had followed her talk.
One little hand went up.
' Tell, Johnny, who was ho?" asked
the teacher.
"Columbus was the cent of the
ocean."
Teaching Girls to Ride Horses.
Almost all the little girls who aro
taueht to ride horses these days are
put on cross saddles. They may or
ma ' not ride astride when they get
bigger, but they all learn that way,
It Is a safer position in the first place
and it gives confidence never acquired
by a youngster In a side saddle. As a
rule the small equestrienne is clad in
bloomers and the briefest of ski.tB,
Often she discards the skirt when the

horse easily ablo to overtake her

for the first few lessons is tho child's
belt buckled to the pommel of her

CLOCK WITH 20 DIAL8.
Toll6 Time All Over the World and
Gives Day and Date.
San Diego, Cal., has a wonderful
clock with twenty dials which tell
simultaneously the time in all parts
of the world, also the days of the
week and the date and month. It
stands twenty-ono feet high and four
of its dials are each four feet in dia
meter. The master clock Is enclosed In
plate glass, says Popular Mechanics,
so that every action can be seen, and
the whole is Illuminated every night
It Is Jewelled with tourmaline, topaz,
agate and jade and took fifteen
months to build. The motive power
Is a 200 pound weight, which winds
Itself automatically. The cost of the
clock was $3,000.
Electricity Round a Corner.
A curious experiment with an elec
tric discharge conducted round a
right-angled corner is described by
Prof. Francis E. Nlpher. The corner
was formed In bending sharply the
conducting wire. A photograph
r.Vre, enclosed in a hard rubber hold
er was placed under tho wire In such
.i wv.y that the discharge would de
scend toward It, then turn at a right
unglo, and pass horizontally above It
It was found that when a negative
d!3charge passed down the wire to the
tnlc the electrical particles kept
s' plight on their way Instead of turn
ing, penetrated tho rubber cover and
affected the enclosed plate. But when
tho discharge was positive no such ef
fect was produced. The current ap
parently turned the right-angled cor
ner without, so to speak, shooting off
nt the bend.
