stairs Not to luncheon. He gave up
that meal some years ago. In fact. he
came very near adopting a diet OF one
meal a day. But his doctor stepped In
and forbade 1t. Under the doctors orders
he drinks several glasses of milk during
the afternoon.
He takes no systematic exercise. He
has his own theory on that subject. 1t is
his belief that one exercise Is as good as
another-that it is not necessary to put
certain muscles through a course daily.
In fact. conversation. in his Judgment, is
as good as any other exercise for pre-
serving the health and he speaks from
experience when he tells his friends that
few weeks on the lecture platform are
as good as a course at gymnasium.
If the day is fine, Mr. Clemens spends
it out of doors. Usually he sits in long
couch-chair of wicker. well cushioned. on
the sunny veranda. smoking his pipe. He
may correct the manuscript of the MORN
ing's dictation If he is in the mood; but
as likely as not he does not even do that.
He reads and entertains his friends, and
sometimes goes calling. At Z in the
evening he has his substantial meal, and
at 0 he is very likely to be in his room
But he does not go to sleep very early
He merely rests and reads. Sometimes
his light is burning till past midnight. 1t
is his habit of resting which, his physician
thinks, keeps him in such fine condition,
physically and mentally.

something of his daily habits OF life his
step was heard on the stair. He crossed
the hall with the tread of man of forty
and gave my hand a grip as 1 was intro
duced to him. He was really remark
able sight in his white flannel suit with
that fine halo of snowy hair standing out
from his head. There is no such head OF
hair in the world. 1t is not long. but it
is thick and bushy and comfortable, and
1t looks in certain lights like a halo. 1t
was in that peculiar light that the pho
tographer caught him siIhouetted against
a window. 1t was Miss Lyon who called
attention to the exquisite lighting of his
profile and that beautiful shock of hair
as he sat between the windows. 1t made

direct light. 1t Is at all times a very
kindly expression, but never so kindly as
when there are children about. for. like all
philosophers, Mr.. Clemens delights in the
simple honesty of child nature, and chill
dren all delight in him.
a great deal Mr.. Clemens said to me
about his philosophy of responsibility.
and great deal of his quaint and anus
ing conversation about his experiences and
his work remains with me. but all that
must be recorded only in my memory. He
allowed the photographer to picture him
as he liked-very patiently. although he
says being photographed has come to be
very like work. And so we left him to
his philosophy and his friends and to that
autobiography which is now amusing as
much as it interests all the reading world

MARK TWAIN, THE BEST B
December 80, 1907

@HAT kindliest and bestowed of
all the worlds philosophers.
Samuel L. Clemens - Mark
Twain'-was living last sum
mer at Tuxedo Park, forty
miles from New York city, working on his
autobiography. 1 saw him there when by
appointment 1 took a photographer with
me to make some portraits of him. he
must not be interviewed-that was one
condition of the visit. He would be glad
to see me and talk with me-but not for
publication. So with this understanding
i took the morning train from New York,
and shortly after noon was whisked in an
auto bus to very high place in Tuxedo
Park where Mr.. Clemens had his tenn
porary abode. He is building a home in
Connecticut which should be completed
next spring, but at that time he was
housed in a very beautiful dwelling on
top of a high hill, and so thoroughly de-
tached that no sound from the outer
world reaches it. Flooded with sunshine,
1t stands on a level with the treetops all
about-an ideal place for literary work.
Not that ordinary noises would disturb
the current of Mr. Clemens mind. His
power of concentration is remarkable.
and Miss Lyon, his secretary, tells me
that he writes on wholly unconscious of
the presence of any one in his room. In
fact. one can take paper almost from
beneath his elbow without disturbing him.
His workroSm was ideal-a roomy apart
ment on the second floor with walls
brightly and daintily papered. and with
windows open on three sides to the sun
shine. And his desk? Mr.. Clemens does
not sit at desk when he works Whether
debating to his stenographer or writing
oNith a pen. he usually lies in bed. In
faft, Nhe does not rise till noon, and his
wvSEfs all completed by that time 1t
hegiks sometimes at very early hour.
II hel awakeHs early, he sometimes reads,
or pften takes his pen and writes. His
rssaing is largely history and biography.
At s o'clock his breakfast is brought to
him. 1t rs the continental breakfast
cup of coffee and roll. 1 wish the enc
msas~of coffee and tobacco could see Mr.
Clemens. A calmer, more self-contained
man does not live. If he has nerves he
tdoes not show them. And he has been
coffee drinker all his life, and persistent
Smoker.
After his coffee and roll. Mr. Clemens is
. last two years that he has been debating
II have heard some speculation as to its
Possible effect on his style. 1t came from
f8c1oe who have never talked with Mr..
Clemens. If they could note the deliber-
ateress Of his ordinary speech and ex-
Quisite care with which he rounds every
sentence in conversation. they would
understand that Mr.. Clemens can dictate
as easily as he can write. His very busy
brain is full TO overlooking OF ideas. Yet
they do not burst forth in a flood of
words. His utterance has a deliberate
ness which seems studied. Yet it is just
the same at one time as at another. and
remember 1t twenty years ago as it is
today.
At noon he dresses and comes down

you have turned the theater-pardon my
rudeness in saying it-into bewitching

into dazzling views of light and bright
ness and color, into everything of accept

money to see.
But we didn't mind that. dear ones. We
were tremendously Interested We forgot
all about the play--the play was not the
thing. 1t was only recalled to us al
hero's pistol shot as it outwitted the
villain.
Then we suddenly remembered that we

oh, / presume it is awfully rude of us
to suggest such a thing. But don't styles
change? My married friends. whose
clerks spend a good fraction of their time
in writing checks to pay their wifely ac-
counts, tell me they do. Then, If this is
true, won't you, dear society queen, turn
the next change of fashion from our
grievance into one of sweet joy and
gratitude?
