Dixon. "You're not going to let q
little thing like that worry YOU"
Besides which," pursued Sparks,
"Eggie has got a true, manly heart,
and it amt right to trifie with it."
"It was my nose she was trifing
WITH" said Dawley. "Don't you mind
him, Miss Dixon; he's merely trying
to be humorous, and this is about as
near as ne ever comes to it. He
thinks he's doing pretty well, though,
and he really is-for him."
He felt disguised with the whole
thing, and he was still more disgust
cd when Sparks went around with a
handkerchief in his hand, begging the
other fellows to wipe an imaginary
black spot off his nose. This request
was always granted, and for time
it was quite the usual thing for the
men to pull out pocket mirrors and
handkerchiefs and rub their own
noses when Dawley approached them.
Still, nobody could have guessed how
the proceedings exasperated the
young man from his manner, and the
Joke naturally died at last.
If at first he decided that Miss
Dixon's action was somewhat indeli-
cate he changed his mind about it
afterward. 1t might have been in
anybody else, but she was too en-
tirely a child of nature, tempered
with Chicago, that it seemed on con-
sideration almost proper. A day sell
dom passed that he did not go up
to her desk to talk to her, and he
found himself very much amused by
her artless chatter. He felt that he
was unbending. He occasionally
hurled Babylonic bricks at her and
was not in the least offended when
she told him that his language was
'fierce" and desired him to come
down to where she could reach him
without standing on tiptoe and rip
ping the seams in her sleeves. He
told johnson, the one man in the
house with whom he was on intimate
terms, that 1.-The little girl was SIM

"Great Scott, mol" exclaimed Daw-
ley. "Oh, of course, I jolly her once
in awhile, but she knows how to take
that guess she does"
When Dawley began to think it over
he was not so sure whether Miss Dixon
knew how to take him. He had occa-
sionally made protestations of an
ardent and consuming passion. He
had called her Emmeline forsome time
when they were alone, but she had
laughed at him and he had supposed
that she had understood perfectly well
that he was not in earnest. He was,
in the main, right-minded young
man, and, recalling the fable of the
boy and the frogs, he reflected that
what was sport to him might be death
to her. He decided that he would keep
himself steadily to the lace depart
ment and away from Miss Dixon's
desk. He did so for about week and,
then, yielding to a feeling of curiosity,
he went over and found her chatting
in very animated fashion with Sparks
and showing no sign of mental an
guish.
He felt irritated, and vaguely I'M
easy, and when he heard her join her
musical laugh to Sparks raucous bray
a moment later his irritation turned to
something like rage. For another
week he avoided her, and during that
time his uneasiness became more de-
fined. He lost his appetite to great
extent, which he could hardly account
for. At the end of the week he con-
cluded that as the young woman was
evidently in no danger of misplacing
her affections he might as well go back
and talk to her. He went.
She was not busy and as he APP
preached she looked up at him with
the old bright smile and familiar nod.

The Te1ephonOgraph.

This is a combination of the phono-
graph with the telephone, intended
to record telephone message on a
wax cylinder at the receiving end of
the telephone line. The record is
made by a stylus actuated by the I'M
dulations produced by the sound
waves. From the impressed cylin-
der the message can be retrans-
formed into spoken words by the or
binary method of a photograph. The
usefulness of the instrument depends
upon the fact that by its means a
message can be sent when the in
tended recipient is absent. Upon his
return the latter can set the phono-
graphic apparatus going and listen
to the message at his leisure
