Right spot.

A former hello" girl OF the Washington
Telephone exchange recently related one OF
her experiences on the wire, which she said
mad made a deep impression on her mind,
and has since caused her to do consider
able thinking. Here is the story as she
told IL:
"A man who worked in a downtown store
was In the nabit of calling up a woman
friend OF his several times day. He had
just the sweetest voice | had ever heard
and his conversation was simply angelic,
His voice had a ring that was both capti-
waiting and musical, and l must confess !
fen I'm love with that voice, His charming
tone and suavity led me to believe that he
must be the handsomest man in this part
OF the country, and l was almost dying to

Yes" answered Mrs. Smith. "and they re
living at 500 South Forty-ninth street and
our number is 5O7 South Forty-seventh

On going 10 Philadelphia the Smiths had
placed their daughters in boarding school
few days after Mrs. Smith had met Mrs.
Jones the Smith girls announced:
We'll. it's funny. but Ethel Jones, the
girl who lived on the same floor with us in
New York, started in at our school this
morning"
The Smiths stayed in Philadelphia nearly
two years, then moved back to New York.

searching, on the very date when the
missing mans presence was most desired
owing to a business deal, the friend stepped
into a booth TO call up business acquain-
lance in a town a hundred miles distant
He had just started TO talk when the wire
became crossed with another, and instead
Of hearing the voice of the man he had
called up. he suddenly found himself listen
ing to that of the missing friend.
Hello! Hello" It said impatiently. I'm
in Scranton Is this"
This is your friend Brown" shouted the
man, whose conversation had been inter
rupted, quickly conquering his astonish-
ment. "and I want to know what on earth
made you disappear a month ago and where
you've been?"
Of course, the man who had been missing
up TO that moment was also duly aston
ished at the coincidence brought about by
accident. But, to make matters brief, he
then and there went into consultation with
his friend concerning the latters important
business deal, and the next day he returned
to the bosom OF his family and was for
given for his protracted spreey.
Told teh Same story.
A firm Of publishers ordered from we'll
known writer on things out-of-doors true
story that he had known for many years
without using, Of how a German, despond-
ent because he had spent for drink theS
that his employer had sent him out
to change, wandered to pier with the in
tention Of committing suicide Ae he sat
around waiting for the crowd gathered
about a yacht to disperse, so no one would
be at rand TO interfere with his plan,
man mounted a box TO auction on the
yacht. The German, as he thought Of that
stolen s. and his disgrace, mechanically
nodded his head from time to time as some
men in deep thought will do. and at last
the auctioneer called out: sold to the
gentleman seated over yOnder."
At that moment in rushed a we'll dressed
man Jand excitedly inquired whether or not
the yacht had yet been sold He was told
that the German had purchased IL. Rush
ing " TO the latter, he said; I'm give
YOU q 600 cash above the price you paid
for it," The German, still thinking hard
about the disgrace, nodded mechanically,
and the next moment 5000 in bills was
stuffed into the hands.

versatlon his ugllness disappeared and -

where Smith became manager of a bust
ness entirely different in character from
that of which he was the responsible head
in the Quaker city. The family home was
established in an apartment house near by
Columbia university. that the girls might
be sent through the various schools and
still be at home.
They had been in the Horace Mann
school but a few weeks when they came
home one afternoon bubbling with excite
ment
What do you think?" they exclaimed
ETHEL Jones started in at Horace Mann
this morning. Her father has come here
to be manager of a business that is to
start in opposition to fathers. And guess
where they live? On the other side of our
street. just two doors below u.s."
Both Smith and Jones are still at the
head of the rival concerns, their homes
have not been shifted, and one of the
Smith girls and the Jones girl are now
in the same class at college.
And a peculiar thing about all this coin
cidence is that though they have tried to
meet each other numerous times, and made
appointments to do so, something has al
ways interviewed to keep Smith and Jones
from making each others personal ac-
pualnldnce. 1el lhey feel tnat they are
not exactly unacquainted, and doubtless
with good reason.
Followed 70 New York.
A few months after Smith had moved
back to New York a man who had been
under him in Philadelphia moved to the
metropolis where he took with Smith a
position somewhat similar in character 70
the one he had held in Philadelphia. On
the day that the van company started
to transfer this mans household belong
ings to the freight depot. several squares
away, the manager of the company, who
was experimenting the work, said casually.
by the way, we're also shipping to New
York today the household goods OF a family
on the street next to yours and the number
Of the house they're leaving is asp. while
yours is 4s1O."
Two days later the man was looking
along l25th street, In New York for the
sign OF van company. Locating one, he
went In and asked the man at the desk

Which he did, in ink, and then handed
back the money to the waiter, who soon
brought the change.
Two months later the Spaniard was in
New Orleans. He walked into a cigar
store to buy pocketful OF his favorite
brand of cigars, handed the clerk a so
bill and received among the change a SO
bill. He was carelessly folding It when
his eyes caught some writing across the
center of the bill. His curiosity aroused,
he took a close look-that writing was his
own name! The God of chance had put
into his hands the very so bill on which
he had written his name in a Boston cafe
eight weeks before.
The Spaniard is not only a man of wealth
but also of leisure, and he determined to
discover, II possible the wanderings of the
bill from the time he inscribed 1t to the
day he received It in New Orleans. He
went to an infinite amount of trouble, set
all sorts of machinery TO work and spent
not little money, but after it was all
over he felt that he had been amply re-
warded. For, while he was unable to fol-
low the bill step by step, he did learn be-
yond the peradventure OF a doubt that a

the name on the bill because of fits being

it had slipped his mind. The Spaniards
