never worked with him, and did not
know him, but she returned her own
without asking a single question, much
to the regular operators surprise.
The next day the operator managed
to get around to the way wire again.
He kept this up for awhile, and finally
began showing up late in the mornings
in order to be put on "relief" duty. He
succeeded in month. Then he asked
to be assigned to this circuit among
Others He had always worked none
but the heaviest wires in the office, and
the other operators jolled him a good
deal about becoming a railroad plug"
A ranker charge than this cannot be
imagined by telegrapher. But this
one did not say word. He continued
to spend as much time on the local wire
as he possibly could. The next thing
the boys heard he had gone to get mar
ried.
After the honeymoon his wife re-
sumed her duties in the small Office,
and he returned to the city. He ap-
piled at once for the way wire regular
ly. The officials did not want to give
it to him because he was too high
priced man. But he declared he
would work that wire or none at all,
and the officials finally agreed. For
some time he remained on the wire
with his wife at the other end She
finally gave up her country post, how
ever, and went to the city, too; and
when she left the wire he returned to
the heavy circuit he had abandoned
To the operators themselves court
ing by telegraph appears to be the
most natural thing in the world. 1t is
expected sooner or later by the men,
and looked forward to by the women.
So it isn't strange that couple thrown

how widely distanced they may he,

Prof Morse probably little dreamed
what matrimonial stepping stone he
was hewing out when he bent his ener.

distinction of being one of the greatest
match-makers in the universe. And he
would deserve the reputation, too.-N.
