Willingness to Oblige THE public has a right to something more than perfunctory service from those who supply its telephone needs. There is something more to a telephone service than mere ly placing at the disposal of the public adequate telephone equipment. Courtesy, willingness to oblige and patience, under trying conditions on the part of telephone employes, promote friendly feeling and are essential to the best kind of tele phone service.

In which case the punishment Is Im prisonment probably for a term of five years. Greatest of All. It Is In her favor that the greatest of all French lawyers. Mnltre Labot'l, has been retained to defend the wir» of the ex-Mtntster of Finance. M. 1 .abort made a world-wide reputation when he defended Captain Dreyfus and won that historic trial for the persecuted French officer. But not only In the world of law has Laborl achieved renown. In the realms of romance he has earned some tioto riett, though the story of his mar riage is now but a memory. That union, starting under a cloud, has had the happiest results. M. I.abori first met his wife ttt England. She was then a famous pianist, known to the world of music as Maggie Okey. Although an Eng lish girl, she was the wife of Vladi mir de Pachmann, also a noted pia nist. and a native of Poland. They were giving a joint recital at tbe Crystal Palace, larndon, and M. La bor!, then a bright and handsome young Frenchman, studying law tn England, was one of the enraptureo audience. Labor! and Maggie Okey there me; for the first time and a mere acquaintance ripened into In tense affection. Soon came the news that the couple had eloped and in due course oe Pachntann obtained a divorce. Almost immediately Maggie Okey became the wife of M. Ixibori. Their union has been o fthe happiest possible character and some of the great suc cess of the French lawyer Is trace able to the influence of his devotea wife. But that Is many years ago. Mnte.

One more Interesting feature of the Caillaux scandal, which has not re ceived much prominence, is the ques tion of where the liberty of the press should begin and end Just over that narrow strip of water—ln England— the limits of It* power are pretty clearly defined nnd the law bits lum. at those who overstep the defined mark, hut In France all 1* In a state of chaos nnd Innumerable cases have proved that It in almost Impossible to procure n conviction for libel tn a newspaper In nearly all cases tbe accused Is triumphantly acquitted. The result Is that a man may be di stilled and abused in the press bui lie never thinks of bringing his ac cuser before the courts Ills remedy lies in the Inevitable duel of which we have so many In France. Indeed It Is the absence of tegai redress which brings about ao many of these affairs d'honneur and lit erally forces tin- French Journalist to become an expert In the use of the foil and the pistol, for he does not know whnt day he may lie called upon to meet some agggrleved compatriot. That most of these duels are less dangerous than a football game ts an other insight into the Gallic tempera ment. It is openly said that the reason M. Calmette's accusations against the ex-Minlster of Finance grew dal y more bitter was, when It was seen that no challenge was forthcoming to forc» M. Caillaux to bring an nettou. If he had at last been goaded into this, the whole question of nls past political career would have come otli '-t sit*'-* done, and documents would have been produced In court., which could not honorably he repro duced in a newspaper. But M Call laux was too shrewd a politician to be thus drawn, and his wife, tenting the publication of further letters whlcn had passed between her and her hus band before their marriage, exasper ater beyond bearing at the dally at tacks, resolved on the mad net whlcn did the very thing she was anxious to avoid. She, woman-Uke, in her thirst for revenge, did not reckon with the fact, that In killing M. Cal mette she killed also the career ol her husband to whom she was un doubtedly devotedly attached He might have lived down the newspaper attacks, but it Is very unlikely, even in such a country as France if he ever lived down the desperate act of ahis misguided wife. A Mother ot Pearl Ikon of "Lord's Last Supper” Awaits Claimant Is Almost Identical to One Presented to the Russian Emperor. London.—A mother of pearl Ikon, of the "Ivord’s Last Supper,” almost identical to that presented to the Em peror of Russia by the Sultan of Tur key as a peace offering on the out break of the late war with Italy, Is in Ixindon awaiting a claimant. It was destined for King George, but because It is not an official gift it cannot be presented to him, aijd, since no one else has a right to accept it, the ikon remains without a master. The history oT the ikon began whan Italy cast covetous eyes on Turkey’s Tripollan possessions. The Sultan in need of friends, determined to turn to his powerful neighbor on the north and in true Oriental fashion decided to accompany his overtures with a gift. He ordered the Kobi, an Ara bian tribe celebrated for its mother of pearl work, to make an ikon of the “Lord's Last Supper” for presen tation to the Russian Emperor. It was no small order, for tile mother of pearl had to be carried a twelve day camel journey into the interior from tbe seashore. Work on Ikon. While the tribe was at work on the Ikon one of its members, who had served in the Hritish army paid a visit to his old home, and when he saw what was being done he insisted that it would be the grossest discour tesy to his royal master if a similar gift was not made for King George. The only difference between the two is that the Russian gift is surmount, ed by the imperial arms oT Russia, while the English image hears the roval arms of Great Britain. When the Russian gift was finish ed the agents of the Sultan paid for it and carried it. away, but tbe Kobi tribesmen did not know how to send the replica to King George. It was finally taken to Sir John Gray Hill, of Liverpool, who maintains a winter home on the Mount of Olives In Jeru salem. Lady Hill paid the tribesmen for their work and brought the Ikon to London. The ikon Is made in the form of a half room with the front elevation surmounted by the royal arms. The figure of the Savious and hiß disci ples about the table are done in full relief in solid mother of pearl. The work Is very complete, even the small est table utensils in mother of pear occupying their ordinary place on the table. The workmanship Is exquisite and the design excellently done. It Is probable that IT no means can be found for delivering the ikon to the king, it will find a resting place in some London museum.
