necessary for the tele.jnone com

against thie applicaiioii of white
or flesh-colored dust to nasal
extremities.
Dispatches from Flushing, L.

girls at the telephone exchange
of that place have been forbidden
to powder their hoses, brought
the following remarks on the
order from the local telephone
officials:
“Our girls eyidently know how
to do both' the powdering and
operation of the switchboards
well. We have received no com

orders against our girls applying
perfumed dust, to eliminate the
shine.’*

a $1000-a-year clerk, who, after
being in the service six yeiar^,
inanaged to buy ^ $4500 house
and put money in the bank, at
the same time providing for his
wife and family.
Decoy letters, cont^iriin-'
mpked bills, were posted at the

he testified. Then. Sittler was,
arrested. The money, accordin
to the inspector, was found in

had bought the house at 5114
