Vile pass on to Number Ten 3 this is a book of exaggeration. In it will be found a description of the Mess Hall Biscuit. His Home at Tampa and numerous other subjects of not very much importance. It is neatly bound with leather binding, but the paper used is of a very common kind. These expressions occur very many times on the pages, 'L If I was only to home on the farm, I am a table finisher by trade, buta machinist by occupation. We will now pass 011 to Number Eleven 3 this is a good one, but it has not been known to very many, as it seems to be of a very quiet form, and so far it has not been read by many people. There are some funny things, but not so many, as the author of it is a Chalker and not a writer. You will find on the worn pages such expressions as this, Mamma, can I go up-town ? Yes, my darling little baby boy, you may go, but do not stay more than ten minutes or I will have to come after you. O, go on 3 no, stop. VVe now pass on and see a very handsomely bound book-Number Twelve. This book is not an old book, and vet it is not unstained with finger prints. It is liked by all the boys, as it contains some very striking cartoons of different members of the college. On one of the soiled pages you will find a cartoon of a large number of brownies playing base ball and football, the faculty playing tennis, and last, but not least, a bunch of web-footed Normals paddling around in a puddle of water in the Prexyis back yard. He has very good taste, and is also a born artist, since he has drawn a picture of Heimberger comparing his head with a zero, since it is very round. VVe now pass to the unlucky Number Thirteen, a very sacred book this is. This book is known as Bridges Baby Stories for Little Boys. It is bound in black paper with gold bordering the edges, and has some very good cheap paper wrapped in it. It is liked by all the small boys OJ, and seems to be quite a favorite among the faculty. It is in very good ccndition, as it has been handled with care. I noticed particularly on one of the worn raw-edged sheets how he advises babies to go to heaven. He says: Never use tobacco, never drink intoxicating drinks, never swear and try not to do anything, justiso you do not do your friends, and your enemies especially, and you will be in the same condition I am in. CI feel sorry for the babies IJ XVe now pass to Volume Number Fourteen, Maud, the :FTIllS?!.l' This name got its origin from the Greek word Sphynxf' It is very hard to study, henceforth very few understand it. We have managed to make out one thing in it after so long a search, this was the morning when it fell down the stairs. O, pshawf' We now pass to Volume Number Fifteen. This is a very handsomely bound book with silver colored edges, and contains 501116 of the finest paper that has ever been put into books. It is known as Miss Peek's Advice on Etiquette. In it you will find some rules as, Never keep quiet. Talk all the time. U Never neglect to use all your lung power 1 it was given you to use. Never listen to other persons or you may forget what you Want to say yourself. We may depend upon these maxims, since the book itself is highly esteemed on account of its scholar- ship and intrinsic value. 45

We now pass to Volume Number Five. It is handsomely bound in leather, and decorated with a very bright and fiowery bordering around the edges, thrown very loosely about. It is not shelf worn, but it has had some very hard use, and the leaves are tinted with finger prints and stains. It is a very useful book, but too deep and very hard to study, and it has caused many to have weak eyes. It has such a large name that they could not put it on the cover, and henceforth had to waste some of the pages. Wie read on the cover, Maximus Itlarcellas Taylor Hutchinson Coreus Confusius - -.U Do Christians eat pork ? We now pass to Volume Number Six 3 this is on the order of a child's book. It is very handsomely deco- rated With violets and pansies. This is a very popular book, and it has in it some very useful advice to Young folks. This book is not shelf worn, nor is it a new book, but has been handled with care,'l and did not spring up until this year. On the cover you will find this inscription, Little Talks for ' llfznzg ' Folks. We now pass to Volume Number Seven. This is not an old book, although it seems so, since it has been handled with care. Judging from appearance one would think it very poor reading. since its cover has a very dull appearance and the paper in it matches well. It has this sentence on the first page and the first line, Don't judge a man by his clothes, 11111 no mascot. It is liked by all because it is entitled Fuller's Dreamy Land. And it is so much like a dream that one almost dreams when reading it, because it is on one line of thought. On the last page you will see these words, I don't care if I never wake up. Kill it, Babe. We now pass to Volume Number Eightg this book has a very bright red bordering, and it is very carefully written and treats of a very good subject, but not so deep as some others in the collection. Of course all books have their sayings, and in this one you may find some few such as this, Hump out, nigger, or I'll burn you with a chunk tof hamj. It is entitled, too, My First Love. Of course, I have not seen her yet, but I am quite sure if she is not like him she will have to 't hump out and find another fellow. We now pass to Volume Number Nine, this is very stylishly bound in different colors. It is an ideal pub- lication for the college youth, and is quite a favorite among the boys. It takes up very much useful time reading it. You will find in this book some very counnon expressions treating entirely of base ball, football and other games. The author of this book was not very careful with his English, and we find some very huge blunders on every page, such as Have you saw ? I have saw. He is an unhonest man, He's hot stuff. It is known 'in the collection as Ollie Kinnison, the Linguist. If you are not acquainted with reading mixed-up English you will have to have a guide to translate it for you. He often says, Mats the whatter ? You can lick me if I try. I will break your fist with my face. 44
