a certain young man whom we shall
call Smith, was employed at an Office
on the National Line. In the course
OF business, he ascertained that the
person having charge of station in
small town some seventy miles dis
tant, was alyoung lady, and that her
name was Sarah. Forthwith in an in.
terval of eisure flashed over tho wires
this message:
"My name is Smith--how old arc
you? ?"
TO which the answer was promptly
returned:
"My name is Sarah-Nonc Of your
business !"
The next one ran thus:
81 am not married-What are Won
worth ?"
10 which the words came back
"Worth million"
AS a climax the youth replied:
evil! you marry me ?"
The answer was "yes"-and in four
months they were married.
