lated to excite feminine admiration.
After the renewal of their friendship,
he was very kind. He never tried to
roast her. on the contrary. he seemed
anxions to shield her from the little
rudeness that fall TO the less experien-
ced operators on a busy wire. In the
idle intervals, too, ne made himself
very agreeable. so that through him,
her working hours were robbed of
much of their tedium.
As the days wore on the tension be-
tween Warwick and Judy did
not relax. on the contrary, the
air about Warwick became more
and more explosive. according
as the manner of the Judy Junction
man became less tolerable. At times
the latter took on an absurdly jocular
air toward Warwick, and when War
wick, irritated beyond endurance, snap
ped back Quincy would advise him
sweetly to take something for his tenn
per-
At last the tension reached a point
where something had To give. To be
openly played with, to be made to feel
cheap before every one on the cir
cult and, most of all, in the eyes of
his friend at Okisko, and that too, by
a green country operator who used a
special brand of nerve food, was too
much to be calmly borne. Manning
promised himself that he would dispose
Of his tormentor once for all on the
next Gazette day. He would roast that

nerve food or no nerve food, and bring
him to his knees bowling for mercy.
The day rolled round, and the news
report was started as before. Man
ning's Morse was as swift as the wind,
and, for a time, as clean and clear as
one could wish to hear. But pretty
soon, seeing that he could not other
wise punish the receiver, he began TO
adulterate it, feeling it must be owned,
a burning sense of shame at the act.
His caricatures of the code were simply
terrific. Still. there was no word from
Judy. He did not come to his knees
worth a copper cent. Yet Quincy must
have been raving. Those who knew
him knew that he loved good Morse, no
matter how swift; knew also that, in
his opinion. man who purpOsely mud
died it deserved to be kicked. So at
the end of Manning's effort. though he
had put down every word in copper
plate. he opened up holly. go. K, Qy!'
he said at a rafting clip. Then he ad-

you are not only the rawest of kids
but you are more varieties of a ID

zone minute" Manning said irritab-
~, attempting to resume the interrupted
chat.
But Judy would not be put off 'It
won't wait" he said briskly. Take
it now and be quick about it,
Still Manning demurred and a sharp
mix-up ensued. After a struggle Judy
had his way and ratified off his mes
sage. Manning was hot. The Judy
''artist" was very fair operator-that
he admitted. But the fellow had an
air of having done heavy work, of be-
ing too big for the place, which i'll be-
came a mere railroad novice. How
ever, Manning saw the Importance of
the message and knew that Judy was
right in forcing it upon him. Had it
all ended there his pride would not
have suffered. But to carry his point
Judy had grounded off Okisko thus
handed proceeding that Manning re-
scented, and in giving his 20. X" he
also ripped out his disgust at Judy's
insistence. Judy waited cody, then he
retorted:
VERY young colts ought to wait to
be weaned before kicking over the
traces"
This from a mere railroad junction
product, in Morse provokingly patron
izing, was too much for Manning, and
from that instant war was declared be-
tween Warwick and Jsdy.
Manning racked his wits trying to
hit upon some way of getting back at
the Judy artist" If he could have
got together any great number of mes
sages at a time for that station he
would have been in clover. Then he
could have roasted" the upstart every
hour and thus made his revenge a con-
tinuous performance. But his only
chances of schorching were the days,
once a week, when the Judy Junction
Gazette received its news report. The
first day this batch of matter was put
before him Manning fairly Rugged

gan calling, III simply skin alive that

Manning's key did not merely trickle

the truth to say that Morse gushed
from his finger tips. And his copy?

watch the luscious loops and curves
issue from his peni When Judy

swing. which he meant as a warning
To the distant receiver. Then gradually
he let himself out until a pace was
reached that Manning considered ter
rife for a cOuntryrhan to copy. The
saunders along the line jingled in a
way to make operators sit up and
listen. 1t was good stuff, too. a trihe
youngish perhaps. but really fun of
promise. On and on battered the
stream of dots and dashes, yet never
a word or sign of a break came from
the other end. Manning grew uneasy.
Ne wondered if it were possible that
the wire had gone down. Are you
there. Iu?' he presently asked.
Jaw. smoke up! Get busy" cried
judy with an indulgent chuckle.
That nettled Manning and on he went
with a will. The Morse poured from
the saunders in a swishing torrent.
Still the receiver made no sign At the
end come an easy 90. x, Qy," and
that was all. 1t made the old timer
down at Wharton think of a mastifr
brushing fly from his ear. But Man
ming deceived himself: he chose to be-
lieve that the GOODNESS of the Judy man
was feigned. He was simply roasted
to death. and put on an air of non
chalance for effect" he told himself.
But that was where Manning's youth
and lack of intuition showed. Certainly
ne could not have known that Tom
Quincy had years before graduated from
the Judy Junction Office and was now
one of the crack receivers in the AssOci-
ated Press at Washington. Nor could
he have guessed that Tom was on a
vacation home and that finding his
father, the regular agent. sick and I'M
fit for duty, had taken hold until the
old man would be we'll again. Still.
after even an occa sional turn with such
a receiver. Manning ought to have real
lied that he was working with no ordi-
nary operator. Z No such verile, rollick-
ing Morse could have come from any
suckling's hand.
Even the little lady at Okisko could
have told him better, but of course she
dared not on the wire. for 10y would
have heard. Besides. would it not have
seemed presumption on her part to

he promptly resented the insult he

With his fingers idly pressing his
key, Manning gazed into space. Ever
since coming to Warwick he had puz-
zled over the subtle appeal in the dots
and dashes that came over his wire
from ONsko. It was not that the oper-
ator there was a wOman-sO much he
gathered from the dainty primness of

biographies there was familiar quail

he had heard that same style of Morse
before, a style less easy and finished
than now perhaps, yet still the same.
All a once It came to him, and a bright
light of recognition shone in his face
Are you Miss Farnum ?" he clicked
out eagerly; the same little FIN who
worked the old Sanford string at
Hampden two years ago?"
Thanks to the unappreciative bach

cheerily.
"And do you not remember me?"

Manning ignored the evident stiff

''Thanks!" came back more gently.
