WHITTLED OF WHITE PINE,
It was Sunday afternoon in April. Busi
nese was dead and the Western Union
boys in the Little Rock office had noth
ing to do but to tell stories. Finally a
discusssion arose as to how far a single
wire circuit could be worked and one of
j£he boys suggested that they test the
natter then and there.
In a moment he had called St. Louis,
summond the chief operator and request
ed to be given a wire to Chicago. When
f • Chicago answered he asked for the chief
opperator aud said he wanted a wire to
Detroit. Then he asked Detroit for a
wire to Cleveland and requested Cleveland
to give him Buffalo.
Before Buffalo responded somebody
along the great wire circuit broke in and
stopped further progress.
“Who’s breaking?” asked the Little
Rock operator.
“A B,” came back the answer.
“Who is ‘A B’?”
“Ashtabula, Ohio. Whois‘Lß’?”
“Little Rock, Ark. How are you?”
“Pretty well, thank you.”
“How’s the weather in Ohio?”
“Delightful. How is it in Arkansas?”
“Hotter than .”
Suddenly somebody broke in and
opened the circuit.
a moment later communication was re
established and the Little R >ck operator
repeated the sentence, “Hotter than
Somebody again “broke.” As soon as
Little Rock “got the wire” the operator
angrilly clicked: “Keep out; who’s
breaking us?”
The answer came: “AB.”
“Whit are you breaking for, Ashta
Lula?”
‘•Because I don’t think you ought to
use such language in the presence of a
.ady.”
What the Little Rock office said next
didn’t go ever the wire at all.
>
But after that episode every Sunday
■"afternoon, whenever business was dull,
one Little Rock operator fought his way
by wire to Ashtabula and had a chat
often cut short by interference—with “A
B.” and when the time for his summer
vacation came a:ong he packed his grip
and took a trip to the noith. When he
came back he told the other boys in the
office- that he had been “visiting friends |
in Ohio.”
The next time he took a vacation t rip
he did not come back alone. To-day he
is Western Union manager at Akron,
Ohio, where he has a beautiful home,
which is dominated by two of the pret
tiest youngsters in the state and is pre
sided ever by the modest operator who
used to sign ‘‘A B.”
The four men got together in Frank
lin “den” late in the evening, leav
ing the women in the parlor, to dis
cuss Belmark’s new house.
Davidson told a story concerning a
bachelor friend —a bald-headed man
who had lasted through fifteen gay sea
sons and then fallen victim to a
blonde debutante.
b On the bridal tour the mature groom
and the girlish bride stopped over one
day at Niagara. They found them
selves on speaking terms with some
people at the hotel. One of the wo
men asked the groom: “Is this your
I daughter’s first visit to the falls?”
I The groom thought it was a good
I joke, but the bride went to her room
and wept all evening, so that the tour ,
■ caiue very near being a failure.
f*- “I don’t believe that story,” said
■ Belmark. “Any woman of the least
I could recognize a newly
married pair at a distance of a mile.”
“She probably knew they were
bride and groom, and merely said that
i to make it pleasant for the girl”’ sug
► gested Talmage. He was unmarried,
but he knew ali about the heariltss
uess of women.
“I know when I was married every
one was on to me,” said Belmark.
“About fifty peoi le followed us down
to the train to b d us good-by, and be
fore we started t ve - ybody on the train
had us spotted. Most of the passen
gers in the ot) er sleepers walked
through our car juat to get a look at
us, and finally we had to close the
1 state-room door, although it was a
fearfullj warm day. The porter grin
ned every time he spoke to us, and
’ when we went into the dining-car I
could hear a dozen people whisper
ing.”
“What foolishness it is, anyway, to
make a 'our immediately after the
marriage,’’ said Franklin. “The man
is nearly always on the point of phys
Seal collapse. He hasn’t recovered
from his bachelor dinner yet—needs
bromo and sleep. Why, it’s soine
r thing terrible. He’s been pitched into
new clothes, new ihoes, new hat—
everything new. His new clothes are
enough to bore him to death, leave
alone getting married. The girl has
been pulled and hauled around too;
kissed and wept on until she is in
a hysterical condition, and then, to fin
L ish it all, ahe is rut ou a train with this
h distracted man and sent away to find
B more excitement.
r ‘‘That’a right,” added Belmark. “and
I i|*s just as you say—they always give
themselves away by having everything
new ”
“Do you know how I fooled ’em
when I made my trip?,’ asked David
san. “1 allowed my wife to carry one
of the valises.’”
“I don’t believe you fooled them at
all,” said Talmage. “Did you hear
about Bert Carroll and how smooth
he tried to be? You know he went to
Washington first, and when he got
there he said to his wife, ‘Now if we
call a carriage and go up to the hotel
with all this stuff every one at the
hotel will know we have just been
married.’ So he sent the baggage to
the hotel by a wagon, and he and his
wife rode on a street car. He knew
that the hotel people wouldn’t expect
a bridal couple to arrive on a street
car. Well, when they got up to the
hotel he took his wife in at the side
door and left her in the ladies’ parlor
and he went in and registered. The
clerk assigned him a room and sent a
boy up to show it to him. It was a
rather small inside room, with a single
bed and two chairs. Carroll caine
back to the office, and he was mad.
He said to the clerk, ‘Look here, my
wife will never be satisfied with that
room.’ The clerk looktd up and said,
‘ls your wife with you?’ ‘Of course, she
is, ’ says Carroll. Then the clerk says,
‘Why didn’t you register for her?‘
Everyone standing around began to
laugh, and in ten minutes the whole
house knew about the bridal couple.”

One feature rather surprising to an
American is that every park is made
for use. There is no fear lest the grass
muy be injured, but in every ground
adapted for them are cricket and foot
ball fields, picnic grounds, croquet
lawns, tenuis courts, bowling greens,
the use of which is permitted for a mere
ly nominal payment. Every park, large
or small, has one or more concerts each
week during the summer, paid for by a
neighborhood subscription. Less need
exists for large parks than in American
cities of tho same size, because the bet
ter class of houses all have ample gar
dens.—George F. Parker in Century.

A good motto this for every good
citizen. Every dollar spent in your
home makes it just that much happier.
A homo without music is not what it
would be if there was a piano or organ
in it. What would be more acceptable
for a Christmas present than one of our
pianos or organs for your wife or
daughter ?
We Honestly Believe
you’ll agree with us that our prices on
pianos are not high but low—lower
than you have been in the habit of
paying. Low in price but high in
quality, is the impression you get when
you come here and look.

home a bit with a new piano or organ
come here and see what we can do
for you.

X I have been in bad health for eight years. Three years ago I took to my A
bed, and our best physician pronounced the disease Neuralgia of the Womb.
He attended me three months, all to no good. I was treated by six different
doctors but got no relief. At last I tried the Wine of Cardui and Black-Draught
treatment, and two bottles of Wine has done me more good than all the other
flB medicines I have ever taken. I had bearing down pains in the lower bowels,

alone knows what I sufferedl Since I have been taking Wine of Cardui I have
hardly any pain, even at the monthly period.
