The difficulties ?he has to con.

upon her, the trial her patience
is continually undergoing, no one
can realize. If the public whom
she serves realized half they

over the wire, abuses and displeasures
heaped upon lier innocent
head by the customer she is
doing her best to serve, because
''Central" is the only one cou
uected with the exchange that
we know, we visit our displeasure
upou the girl who is only
doing her little part the best she
can. Under the most favorable
conditions it must sometimes be
almost unbearable.
Of course there are occasions
when the subscriber feels justified
in being wrathv, but thiuk
ing of it calmly, what good will
it do to yell at ''Central?" If
you have any complaint to make
you can at least make it in a
quiet way. And probably if
everyone tried in these little
ways to lighten the telephone
girl's heavy burden there would
be less cause for complaint ot
any kind. Simple kindness i"
surely not much to give.
