Confesses to Part in the
Winslow Bank Robbery
Chareed with shooting his pal to
death, George Slouth is in the hands
of the Kansas City police, wnom n
startled by the admission that he took
part in the blowing up of the safe in
the tamous wtnstow Dank rorjoery.
He may be the one who escaped the

Indigestion and Biliousness.
You should not eat food of any
kind when bilious, but take a lull
dose of Chamberlain's Tablets and
drink plenty of water. That will
cleanse the stomach, move the bowels
and soon restore the system to a
healthy condition. By the following
morning you can eat sparingly of dry
crusts ot Dread, vegetaoies ana ce
reals, but should eat no meat until
the next day. Mrs. Win. J. Tillman,
Paris, III., says, "1 have found Cham,
berlain's Tablets splendid for indi
gestion, headache and bilious attacks."

The Telephone Central
is Only a Co-Operator
With Our Subscribers
Good telephone service is the result of co
operation. Every person who makes a telephone call is
an operator, as is every one who answers a call.
Co-operation between the party calling, the tele
phone operator and the party called results in
better service.
The person who has consulted the directory,
who speaks clearly and slowly in calling, and
acknowledges the operator's repetition of the
number, has co-operated toward better tele-
phone service. t
Please Do Not Say "Hello"
The person who answers his telephone
promptly when called, who gives his name or
, that of his business without the unnecessary
"Hello", helps the service greatly.
The telephone operator has no control of
these things. She co operates with the sub
scribers by answering calls promptly, pleas
antly, and calling the desired party without
delay.
Co-operation between the subscriber and
the operator makes for better telephone service.
