ED1soN's MARRIAGE.-The story of

matte telegraph system, he perfected
u contrivance for producing perfora.
tions in paper by means ola KEY board.
Am ng the young women whom he
employed to manipulate these ma
chimes, with a view to testing their ca
pacitv for speed, was a rather demure
young person who attended to her
work and never raised her eyes to the
ncipient genius. One day Edison
stood observing her as she drove down
one key after another with her plump
fingers ur til, growing nervous under
his prolonged stare, she dropped her
hands idly in her lap and looked up
heIplessly into his face. A genial
smile, such AS irreverent paragraphists
have referred to as the Elison grin.
overspread Edison face, and he pres
emily inquired rather abruptly:
What do you think Of me, little
girl? Do you like me? Don be in
any hurry abolt telling me. 1t does
not matter much, unless you would
like 10 marry me.
The Young woman was disposed to
laugh, but Edison went on:
oh, | mean it. Don't be in rush,
though. Think it over; talk to your
mother about it, and let me know soon
AS convenient-Tuesday, say. How
will Tuesday suit you, next week
Tuesday. mean?'
They were married shortly altar.
