BOOKS NOT IN DEMAND.
English University Students Evidently
Are Net Literary.

At the English universities the IL
braries are SO little used that they
have become famous as places OF
unbroken solitude. One yarn told TO
illustrate this is to the effect that an
elderly fellow of Caius college, Cam
bridge, got tired of life and deter
mined to put himself quietly and IN
ostentatiously out OF the way, so that
the world in general and Caius col
lege in particular should know him
no more. Being man with a great
love still for his college, he made up
his mind that no scandal should be
caused by his sudden departure. So
he debated in his mind on the ways
and means. His decision was an in
spiration. He bought decent length
of rope and hanged himself in the
college library. But his hopes were
doomed to disappointment. He was
discovered a year and half later.

the quality is exceedingly poor, being
wholly unfit for milling purposes.
