On an atorago of twice a month tlio store will bo eiitored by a raw looking countryman or n wasted resident of the city , who slides up to the nearest clerk , and , after hesitat ing a few moments , asks him in a stage whisper whether he has any "French books. " The cluik , if ho is a new man , generally answers him it the allirinativo , and conducts him to tlio French school books , and kavea linn to wrestle with the awful mys tericsof Olendoifa method ; but pres otitly ( bo customer returns , and tell the chrk that that is not the kind In wanted. Ho indicates that ho kind lie wants " 11 iH WCTUJIKH IN TUEM.1 The clerk , by a surgical operation tbou understands that the country man is looking for forbidden literary fruit. Inquiries for books of thi class have become BO numerous as t bo annoying. Last week a clerk one of the book stoics determined t "fix" the next man. He according ! took a damaged copy of the revise version , and , doing il up very care fully in a piece of manilla paper , sealed the package with rod sealing- - wax nnd dropped it behind a row of books. Ho had not long to want. In . a day or two a "hog man" from Iowa , with the odor of a packing house about his clothes came into the stare , and after s craning his boots on n black-walnut book-case of the Enstlako pattern , ho approached the wily conspirator , wont through the usual formula , and wound . up with an inquiry for "Fanny Hill. " ' 'I ho clerk replied by a vigorous slmkb of the head , but something encour aged tlio grander , nnd ho inquired again. This time the clerk also shook his head , but not quite so vigorously , and the excited "hogman , across whose mind visions of the book and its pictures floated , insinuated , pro ; tested , and bogged the clerk to give it to him. That individual at last by degrees admitted that he had a copy , but tlmt it not for sale The excited purchaser pulled out his roll and offered 820. llio clerk said the price was only $5 , but that ho would not sell the book , as ho thought that the purchaser would at once in ; form the government and thus get the ( inn into trouble. At last the clerk , with a mysterious uir , led him into the basement and produced the book. IJut before taking the man'u ' money ho made him sweiir ou n Webster's unabridged that ho would not open the pnckngo until out of town. This lie fathfully proiniued to do , and , passing ovoi the 5 , ho bolted out f the place with bis pri/.e UI.UT01IKI ) TIOUTJ'Y IN IMS HANI ) . Knowing that ho would open it on the lirst opportunity , an oflico boy waa cent to follow him. He did so and soon returned , Tlio hid said that the customer entered the noiiru.it station and eat in1 the window for some time , now and then taking furtive glanceH at the corner of the puckngu , which pooped tanlali/inuly out of lu's ulster pocket , whistling to hinuelf all the time like a strungo lad ift u dark lane. Ilia imagination worked upon his cu- rionity at lant , and ho seated himself behind the stove in the rear of the room. After looking cautiously about for BOIIIU time ho carefully took out the puckago and eyed with great eagerness the sealing wax which kept from him the object of his curiosity. At last , however , ho began pooling off the paper covering , stopping now and uuain to HUO if ho was watchod. After a long while ho euccocded in tearing oil' the entire wrapper. With limiting heart and glistening nye ho opened tlio volume and lookrd in. The by paj that the expression uhiuli came over the face of the countryman w n u ntudy for u painter. He ant for sumo win- ut05 looking ut the volume , nighod a nigh or two , then opened the ntove door and consigned the gospels to the name fate as wna usually meted out in the past to lioccaccio. The clerk poultotod to $ fi , minun the cost price of the testament , and in looking for another damaged copy. tlfi MAM 'o t for htuifr trio rnont direct , aloft line connecting the RM t Motropoll * . 0111 AC10 , ami the " . * < nFR.f , N'oRfii-E.miRi , 1 1 n ml SOLTll-nsTiiiiN Linus , ulilili tflrmlii.ito there , tth KANHM CUT , r.HAVuswoRnr , Atcnifion , lli.i'rrs unil OMAUA , the UOMMIBCIIL ( ram w hlch rullntc EVERY LINE OF RCAD i\tt > cnctrotei the Continent ( rora tb Mkruilt h cr to tlio P cine Slot * ) .
