Book dealers have their troubles as

answer more questions than a railway
station agent or the bright young man
who presides at the window of bureau

(Tex.) News.
a Main street dealer was not sur
prised. therefore, the other day when a
clericallooking stranger walked into
his place of business and began to look
around.
Have you got The Woman in White, ;
by Collins?' he inquired
OF course the dealer had it, and was
only too anxious to make sale.
Have you got All Alone which is
also by Collins2" the quiet stranger
continued.
Sure the dealer had it, and by this
time he became interested.
Il forgot the author. but there is a
book called In the Dark that is said to
be very fine"
BY that time the dealer had all the
books on his counter and was prepar-
ing to wrap them up.
Never mind" said the stranger az

suggest that if you have The Woman
in White All Alone and In the Dark
that you have a good thing. Good day,
sir"
