Refer to the number while yon dial... espe

IN 1667, ROBERT HOOKE, AN ECCENTRIC ENGLISH
MAN, INVENTED SOMETHING HE CALLED “CUPID’S
TELEGRAPH." It was a primitive device consisting of two
tin cups connected by a taut string and was meant to be a new
way a young man and his sweetheart could exchange “sweet
nothings.” Mr. Hooke’s contemporaries were horrified and
said he was “possessed by the devil." Time, and other inven
tive geniuses who followed him, have vastly improved Mr.
Hooke’s original idea. Today those “two tin cups and a string"
have become millions of telephones and thousands of miles of
telephone wire linking the whole world into a great speedy,
efficient, and convenient communications systeml
