Are You Ready to Talk? 
Mr. Jones wanted to talk with Mr. Thomas and asked his clerk to 
call him by telephone. 
When Mr. Thomas answered, he was told to “wait a minute.” 
A few moments later when Jones got ready to talk, he found

Mr. Thomas answered and Mr. Jones said, “What the deuce is the 
matter with your telephone, Charlie? 
I have called you.” 
To which Mr. Thomas replied, “Oh! it was you that was calling? I

Jones was cured. 
When answering the telephone, it is aggravating to be told to “wait a 
minute,” and yet hundreds of people impose in just that way on 
those they have occasion to call.

CopLEyY THEATRE. 
“The Man Who Stayed at Home,” 
the greatest war play since Gillette’s 
“Secret Service,” is now on its: third 
week at the Copley theatre, Boston, 
and gaining daily in popularity. This 
play, filled to the brim with tense mo- 
ments and. deft humorous touches, 
has taken Boston by storm and is 
breaking all records at the Copley. 
Rapidly transporting its audiences 
from breathless silence to uproarious 
laughter, it is a play which pleases all, 
both old and young, and which at this 
critical time in our nation’s life, is 
vital in its disclosures, dealing as it

German espionage prevalent in Eng-

war and signs, only too numerous, of 
which have been discovered in this 
country, as exemplified by recent dis- 
closures in Congress,

Do you realize what $2,000,000,000 
raised in the Liberty Loan means?

If Washington started counting the 
$2,000,000,000 at the rate of $1 every 
second, at noon, Feb. 20, 1762, two 
days before his 32d birthday, and 
counted 10 hours each day until he 
died, and then every succeeding Pres- 
ident carried on the work during every 
second of his term of office, Wood- 
row Wilson would finish the job at
