HE WAS NOT A BOOK MAN.

A few evenings since young lady friend of
ours, who lives in the Garden District, was
visited by g. ntlemau whom the gossips of
the neighborhood said was very much in love
with her. During the visit the conversation
urned on books, and incidentally she re-
marked that the evening before she had been
reading very strange and interesting work,
which, however, had caused her nights sleep
to be troubled by very unpleasant dreams.
In tone of tender solicitude he inquired
the name of the work and she replied, "The
Inferno" Apparently not exactly understand
ing what she said, he asked again and was
answered, Dante" .Ohr' said he, 'that
must be new work, l never heard of it.
strange name for book, Dante, is it pot?"
OF course there was q suppressed litter from
the young lady. and he, seeing it, remarked
apologetically, "You know never was much
of a book man."
1t is said now that the young gentleman
considers his case almost hopeless, and is
wandering about among our circulating
libraries, asking for copy of the new novel
Dante.
