There Is
Mere Prefit
There is more profit to be made
on business by telephone than
from any other source. What
are you doing to increase your
salesr;by telephone? 14,000 sub-
scribers added to our system dur-
ing 1905, besides thousands of
miles of toll circuit. Hustle for
your share.
The Southwestern Tel. and Tel. Go
Only A Printer.
Only a printer? His finger tips
Give voice again to long-dead lips,
And from a past and hoary age
Recalls the words of seer and sage.
No painter he—
But line by liue he tells the tale
That color gives to canvas pale,
And masters old before us stand
With brush and palette clasped in hand,
So we may see
With patient toil while others sleep
He makes the ages backward creep,
And knights in armor ride and fight
“For God, my lady and the right.”
No player he—
But by the magic of his hands
The curtain rises in all lands,
And actors for a season rage
Their few brief hours upon the stage,
So we may see.
Only a printer? His magic trade
Hath all earth's scenes before us laid,
He moves his hands and to our eye
Come scenes where soldiers fight and die.
A wizard he—
For he but waves his hand, and lo!
The world with knowledge is aglow;
And by the magic of his art
The future’s curtain draws apart,
So we may se.
Only a printer? His magic spell
Preserves earth’s sweetest story well: :
Of how on Calvary’s cruel tree
The Savior died to make men free.
A prophet he—
For by his art he makes the book
Wherein the weary soul may look,
And looking, see the promise blest
Of home and love and endless rest—
Eternity.
