Getting the Money's Worth,
Mra. Lane was young and inexperi
enced, but certain principles of econ
omy had been instilled into ber from
childhood. She knew that since one
could send ten words in a telegram
for 25 cents and any smaller number
cost the same amount, it was an ob
vious waste of money send less
than the ten.
She had also been taught by her
eminently practical husband that in
sending & telegram one should “keep
to the matter in hand.” and avoid all
confusion of words. On the occasion
of Mr. Lane's first absence from home,
he sent a telegram from Chicago, say.
ing, "Are you all right? Answer,
Blank Hotel, Chicago.”
