Will you please stand as far back from the telephone as. possible, oil the left, and shout, ‘Hallo’?” The busy man' did so, and when he went hack to the telephone the voice said: “Thank you. Now please do the same to the right of the instrument.” The busy man did so, and was so keen about doing it loud enough that he roused tne man in the next office, who knocked on the wall, and wanted to know what was wrong. Then, when the busy man went back to the telephone, the alleged P. and T. voice a't the other end said suavely: ‘Now stand on your head and say it.” Then there was a silence and a void, and the knew that the practical joker is not quite extinct, though it is the year 1929.
