somewhat early hour, as he had to
catch the next train to town. He was
shown into sitting-room where very
pretty woman in soft morning wrapper
was lying on the sofa reading the paper.
She rose as he came in, and he thought
OF the lady's maid whose description
would "fit almost any one"

calmly. @Are you sure it is mine?"

The ingenuity exercised in devising
cipher codes is astonishing to veteran
travellers. These little volumes are now
published in convenient form to be car
ried in travellers pocket and contain a
list of five or six hundred English words

phony than on any other consideration,
arranged alphabetically and each with
its meaning in plain language set oppo-
site to it. The number of words,
phrases and sentences which a single
cipher word may mean when flashed
under the ocean is astounding. Fo,
instance: In Lows new pocket code
the word @scamper' means Telegraph
in cipher as soon as you receive the
copy of the pocket cable code which
send you for that purpose" The word
@enarched" means, Check book has
been lost or stolen; please stop pay
ments on any checks bearing the num-
Der of my check book" When tele-
graphic euphony is alluded to an expert
will readily understand that the object
desired in cipher words is collection
of letters, the Geographic symbols for
which are most readily ineligible to
the ear of the cable operator, the tele-
graph sounds, for instance, for IN" and
"e" are so nearly alike, it is said, that
certain unions Of those letters have
been avoided as far as possible. The
system on which code may be ar
ranged is we'll shown in this series Of
three definitions: Liberties" means
Gin reply to your" "Libertine," which
means Sin reply to your letter." Lib
erty," which means sin reply to your
telegram. "-Ne,o YorE World.
