Mark Twain's Story About His Ab
sentminded Brother.
One bitter December night Orion
Twain > s pother) sat up reading
until 3 o’clock in the morning and then,
without looking at a clock, sallied forth
to c-ail on a young lady. He hammered
aa( j hammered at the door; couldn’t
get any response; didn’t understand it.
Anybody else would have regarded
that as an indication of some kind or
other and would have drawn infer
ences and gone- home, but Orion iliun t
draw inferences. He merely hammered |
and hammered, and finally the father
of the girl appeared at the door in a
dressing gown, He had a candle in
his hand, and the dressing gown was
all the clothing he had on. except an
expression of welcome, which was so
thick and so large that it extended all
clown Ills front to his Instep and nearly
obliterated the dressing gown. But
Orion didn’t notice that this was an
unpleasant expression, lie merely
walked in. The old gentleman took
him into the parlor, set the candle on
a table and stood, Orion made the
usual remarks about the weather and
sat down—sat down and talked and
talked and went or» talking, that old
man looking at him vindictively and
wafting for his chance, waiting treach¬
erously and malignantly for his chance.
Orion had not asked for the young
lady. It was not customary. It was
understood that a young fellow came
to see the girl of the house, not the
founder of it. At last Orion got up
and made some remark to the effect
itiat probably the young lady was
busy and he would go now and call
again. That was the old man’s chance,
and he said with fervency, “Why, good
land, aren’t yon going to stop to break¬
fast?’ — Mark Twain’s Autobiography
in North American Review.
The Temperance of Miss Willard.
I met Walt Whitman once in Ger¬
mantown at a home famous for its
hospitality and the notables who loved
to go there and know he was urged to
leave out of the next edition certain
poems. But “No” was the only answer.
It was art and must never be disturb¬
ed. Miss Willard was also a guest,
and Walt was rude to her; said he
hated a crusading temperance fanatic,
especially a woman. She was perfectly
unruffled, and he left the room, but
before long lie returned and apologized
in the sweetest way. Upstairs Frances
said to me, “What a grand old man to
be willing to own he was sorry for his
remarks!” — Kate Sanborn In New
England Magazine.
Hi3 Idea of Happiness.
At the Players’ club in New York
some years ago a number of actors
were arguing about the meanmg of
the word “happiness.” Iu the midst of
the argument Henry E. Dixey appear¬
ed, and one of the contestants said:
“Dixey, what is your idea of happi¬
ness?”
Mr. Dixey smiled thoughtfully. Then
he replied: “My idea of true happiness
is to lie on a couch before a bright fire,
smoking a large Havana cigar given
me by an admirer, while I listen to a
woman who worships me reading
aloud flattering press notices about my
acting.”
Hope in the Lord, but exert yourself.
—Russian Proverb.
