The Idiot

Chapter 11

BY JOHN KENDRICK BANGS

Mr. Bonaparte of Corsica.

Mr. Bangs is probably the generator of more hearty, healthful, purely good-humored laughs than any other half-dozen men of our country to-day.--_Interior_, Chicago.

The Idiot.

"The Idiot," continues to be as amusing and as triumphantly bright in the volume called after his name as in "Coffee and Repartee."--_Evangelist_, N. Y.

The Water Ghost, and Others.

The funny side of the ghost genre is brought out with originality, and, considering the morbidity that surrounds the subject, it is a wholesome thing to offer the public a series of tales letting in the sunlight of laughter.--_Hartford Courant_.

Three Weeks in Politics.

The funny story is most graphically told, and he who can read this narrative of a campaigner"s trials without laughing must be a stoic indeed.--_Philadelphia Bulletin_.

Coffee and Repartee.

Is delightfully free from conventionality; is breezy, witty, and possessed of an originality both genial and refreshing.--_Sat.u.r.day Evening Gazette_, Boston.
