Mark Twain has in his time caused as
many people 10 laugh as perhaps any
other man, but at the age OF %, over
taken By financial bankruptcy, though by
no fault OF his own, he finds himself IN
the midst OF an experience that Is any
thing but a joke. 1t IL an experience
which appeals to his sense Of honor
great deal more than 10 that OF humor.
To meet this new exigency in his busi-
ness affairs the famous humorat mas
lust set forth on lecture tour around
the world, crossing the Pacific FIRST on
his way TO Australia. His idea Of honor
appears to be that it Is not something 10
be exactly measured by mere legal hon
esty. and that honor is not always salts
fed when the technical requirements OF
the law have been met.
The law. says Mr. Clemens, recognizes
no mortgage on a mans BRAIN and a
merchant who has given up all he has

the broken concern-he proposes 10 pay
the other creditors 80 per cent. OF their
claims. This he will ask them 20 accept

that he, too, is gaining something from

that is somewhat of a surprise 10 him.
II is much TO have been one OF the
most Irresistible humorists Of ones time;
