Since telegrams(电报) are paid by the number of words, that is to say that every word costs money. So people always try to use as few words as possible. Little words like “a”, “an” and “the” disappear.

So a news reporter who wanted to know how old a famous film star named Cary Grant was sent her a telegram, saying, “How old Cary Grant?”
Unfortunately, although the little words have gone, nobody knows where they have gone. So the reporter received a reply from Cary Grant which read “Old Cary Grant fine. How you?”
But perhaps the shortest telegram in the English language was from an Irish writer called Wilde. He was living in Paris then and sent a telegram to his publisher in Britain to see what the readers thought of his new book . The message said “ ?”. The publisher sent back a telegram, saying “! ”
