In this age when everyone is pushing on in a grand mad rush each moment is precious and the business man cannot afford to let one escape that has not profited him something...The Independent Telephone makes engagements, answers questions, does your traveling, it save time - and time is money, facilitates business, saves postage, lengthens the day, evens your temper. |
