A Telephone Relieves
the Monotony of
Household Drudgery
Housework is really much
easier in homes with tele
phones. With a telephone,
the housewife can quickly
reach neighbors or stores—
can chat with friends and
exchange recipes or have
those pleasant ‘'telephone
visits” which dispel the
gloomy effects of monoto
nous housework.
Besides, a telephone has
hundreds of other uses that
bring pleasure to the whole
family—that save time—
that make money and bring
aid in emergencies. See that
your household is healthy,
happy and protected with a
telephone. Order one in
stalled—today.
