But those Owning telephones are apt to listen not only to their own but to their; neighbors' calls. 1f the An- dersons are called there is a number of clicks all along the line. Now, it happened that Enoch Daw- son, living in a region supplied by the Farmers‘ Telephone company, took up the receiver and called one of his two best girls. Edna Perkins. whose signal was a short. a long and a short ring. It happened that all at the Perkins farm were out milking or attending to some other farm duty. but Sarah Short, the other of Enoch’s best girls, heard the ring and went to the telephone. “Is that you.

Goodby.” Thére was a click, and Enoch was left talking to nothing; at least nobody answered him.

W hen the conversation ceased Edna hung up the receiver. but later called Enoch. “Well. who is it?" he asked. “I’m Sallie. What you goin' to do Sunday" afternoon. Enoch? Can’t you come round about 4 o‘clock and stay to supper?" “1 {lén’t think 1 can. I’ve got an en- gagement." “B’m! Well. you may as well un- derstand now as any time that If you want to keep company with Edna and me both at the same time you can‘t do it. You’ve got to stick to one or the other of us. You can accept my invitation for Sunday or let it alone. whichever jbu choose, but if you take Edna Perkins to drive on that day you needn’t trouble yourself to come to see me any more." There was a click. and once more Enoch was left to talk to nobody. But he heard a succession of giggles all along the line and a succession of clicks as a number of women. both young and elderly.. hung up their re ceivers. The ears of the eavesdroppers were much sharper than Enoch‘s, and they knew that each of the rivals had said that if he didn’t give her up the other would have nothing more to do with him. The next Sunday afternoon the road between the Perkinses and the Shorts was lined with persons who had learn- ed either from eavesdropping or from one another that Enoch Dawson would be forced to decide between two girls to whom he had been paying marked attention. Enoch's farm was, connect. ed by this road with the main road. At the junction were many persons watching to see which way he would turn on reaching the main road, Wheth- er he would turn to Edna’s or Sarah’s home. At 3 o’clock he was seen com- ing in his spiel; and span buggy. He noticed those waiting. but it did not occur to him that they were interested in his movements. When he reached the main road he pulled'up and looked first in one direction, then in the op. posite. ‘ -â€"-74 0... ._ L2.- rkuuvv “Get up.” he said at last, turning his horse’s head toward the Perkins farm.
