Was a Literary Curiosity

From The Atlanta Constitution.
Some time ago a gentleman OF
literary tastes, who subscribes for
all the best magazines, read poem
in h,s favorite periodical-read and
re-read it, but failed to grasp it's
meaning. He was persuaded, how.
ever, that it had a meaning of its
own; or it would not have appeared
in periodical enj Dying a reputatio n
as a judge of good literature. He,
therefore, submitted it to a critic
who made u specially of that kind of
work, but the latter returned it with
the Endorsement:
You're too much for me this
time! I sat up with it three nighte,
but I'm not in good health, and CAM
lose any more sleep over it
This was discouraging, but, still
convinced that there must be some
thing in it, he wrote a friendly letter
to the editor, and asked him to
eblige numerous readers by explain
ing the poem.
Several weeks elapsed before he
received the following letter from
the editor-in-chief:
"My Dear Sir: I was interested
to read your letter. Although the
poem appeared in our publication. 1
must admit that I do not quite
catch the authors meaning. have
looked up his address, however,
which I cheerfully furnish you. Per
haps he can throw some light on the
subject. I can't! Yours truly" etc.
He. took the editors advice and
tackled the author, who, being IN
able to explain the thing himself,
replied evasively: The things Of
God are foolishness to the world"
The literary gentleman is keeping
the poem by him as one of the curl
osities of literature.
