And to tbe vision timidly she

At ber presumption, and quite coldly

"The list of our best people who de

For watering plaoes, sumptuous and

"And am I in UT" asked Miss Abbie

Cuder the above uiolion, n it is en

ford Subscribers to the telephone wlil
be compelled to pay a tax lo do ou.
ness with Port Jervia. The same
spirit which raised tolls on the Lai
ret bridge, which we are compelled
to pay, animates tbe Port Jervis Tel.
ephuue Company in thus forcing us
to pay for the privilege of buying of
trie hunnetis houses in that city.
Milford sc far as she can should help
Port Jervis fence herself in ami let
her severely alone. A poetul curd
costing one cent, if you muht buy
away from home, wlil briug ii c-ua-logue
of any large city store, urn! a
two oeot stamp will send your Order
a total ol three cents, as against a
probable toll of tea cents lo telephone
to Port Jervis. Then Ibe New York
stores will send a package freo of
charge to your home, while from
Purl Jervis you must pay cartage ou
your package. The Van Pike Tele
phone Company haa no option in the
mutter. The Port Jervis Company
controls Ihe connection and ran tor'
the local company lo accept its u no
tation. That is the exact sitoatisn.
