N1 hau htMh4S Hhuu6ul tuat some
how Mark Twain would escape th
common fate Of mortals and would liy'
on The earth forever
Doubtless the wish was father to til,
thought.
Of course, we know that in memory
in marvellous mental achievements lef
behind and in the hearts of millions
who loved him, Mark win always live
but we wanted the man whom W.
could see to continue to move amonf
us. II seems the master joke Of fats
that Mark Twain should take the ii
lusiye form Of a disembodied spirit.
1T is hard to imagine death taking
one SO keenly alive said James Whit
comb Riley IN placing his flower or
the bier Of his friend.
Mark Twain was not an old man, al
though the record which marks Tho
flight Of years asserts that he had pass
ed his seventy-fourth mile post. He
was really one OF the youngest men
in the world. Every fiber Of his In
tellect was intensely active and all the
chords Of a great heart were respons-
i've to the slightest touch In his soul
was the buoyancy Of youth, exhuber-
ant with life. Reverses of fortune and
the most poignant personal sorrows
could not embitter his heart or check
the currents Of his eyer-actiye mind.
The career of Samuel i. Clemens
from the time he was deck hand on
Mississippi river steamer, till he
reached his commanding place as a
man Of letters Of the highest rank in
both Europe and America Is known as
is the career Of but few other men, and
it is a remarkable story IN itself He
possessed genius Of the highest order
and added to the element which Is com
monty designated by that term. he had
in a remarkable degree the genius
which is described an infinite capac
ity for taking pains the genius for
labor. He was a worker all his life
up till almost the last hour when phys.
ical strength failed him, and the
amount Of his literary labors was
prodigious.
1t has been questioned whether any
man can become millionaire by hon
est labor, but Mark Twain furnishes
indisputahle proof that such thing ISL
possible. It has not been many years
since his fortune was completely
wrecked by the failure Of a publishing|
house in which he was interested, All
though not legally responsible for theI
debts Of the concern, he assumed ey-
cry dollar Of the indebtedness, and
paid 1t off, coming his brain into dol.
lars almost as fast as the stock-gam
bier filches fortune from the public
by Wall street manipulations He PAID
the debts and died d rich man, and
every dollar he made was an honest
dollar

him to compose his famous opera,
'Tannhauser,"
lie said that while he was at the
piano singing, Pops. whose place was
generally at his masters feet, would
sometimes spring on the table ano
howl piteously, and then the musician
would say to him, "What, it does not
suit you?" and theI, shaking the
dogs paw, he would say quoting
Puck, "Well, l will do thy bidding
gently"
II Wagner stayed too long at his
work, Pops would remind him that it
was time for a walk. He writes 10
one of his letters, 81 am done up, and
must yet into The open air. Pops
mont leave me alone any longer"
At the time when almost all tue
musical world had turned against
him, he would sometimes, In mis-
walks with the coz, dec'aim aloud
against his foes. Then the dog would
rush back wards and forwards, bark
ing and swapping as II helping his
master to defeat his enemies.
When Wagner returned home from
az excursion to some other city, Pep,
would always receive u present as
we'll as-the other III mbers Of I'll e
family.
"Pep' received me j1yfully," he
writes to a friend, after Que of these
excursions. "But then have bought
him beautiful collar, with his name
engraved on it,"
When the time cine for the lit e
life to be ended, Wagner scarcely left
the dying dogs side. he even nut
of two days an important journey ,

INDIANAPOLIS SPEEDWAY


Indianapolis, May 2O,-A large
force of men has been busy the
past three weeks, putting the Motor
Speedway in shape for the Memorial
Day races. A splendid racing pro-
gram is promised and no expense
will be spared by the management
to make the track as near perfect
as possible.
All the famous drivers will be
there and several records are due
to be smashed. Oldfeld, Strang,
Knipper, Chevrolet, Burman and
several others are coming to battle
for supremacy. 1t will be remember
ed that Barney" won the gold
trimmed Overland at the Speedway
races last fall.
Louis Strang leaped into fame
for the mastery way in which
he piloted the Marion Racer in
last years Brighton Beach twenty
four hour endurance meet. When
he took the car for the last twelve
hours run, careless driving and
accidents had put it ninety miles
behind the leaders. Strang drove
with such skill and judgment that
when the long grind was over, the
little Marion had reached 5th place.
In speaking of coming events
at the Speedway, Carl G. Fisher,
president of the association said:
g 1t certainly would have been hard
work getting the track in shape
this spring if it hadn't been for the
of viii H. Brown of the
Overland Automobile Company and
his efficient corps of road testers.
After we had spent several
thousand dollars in repairing the
two-and-a-half mile track, we
thought our work was done. Such
was not the case, however.
"The thin coating of cement on
he bricks began to break up and
proved a menace to tires. 1t was
lecided to drag heavy weights
,ver the track and shave off the
harp edges. The drags were made
fifteen in all
"The question arose how to get
hese scrapers hauled over the track.
talked the matter over with Mr..
Brown and lie Immediately offered
ne the use of fifteen testers and
airs. 1t was only a little while
efore the job was completed The
tlee test cars jerked the huge
rags over the track as though they
lev were tin cans.

The return of not weather makes
the care Of the refrigerator a matter
of serious Importance. During the
summer the cold storage room anc
refrigerator should be cleaned al
least once a week; better twice
Perhaps the choice of refrigerator
has much to do with the satisfac-
ton of having perfectly sweet .food
during hot weather.
A refrigerator is an absolute
necessity in every home and tc
purchase one without some thought
as to its build and requirements
will Be found a very expensive
proceeding. In the first place dc
not buy a cheap one, and in the
second place do not buy a small one
Both will be found to use a
large amount of ice, which will
melt and run off, and the box be
nothing but a dark, unventilated
piece of furniture. A new refri-
gerator should stand for twenty
four hours after the ice chamber
is filled before any article of food
is put into it.
1t is also important that there
be little if any wood in the interior
of the refrigerator. If it were not
for the question of cost there is no
doubt that, taken all in all, a tiled,
or enameled refrl-
gerator would be best. Such sur
faces are smooth, easily kept clean
and do not absorb odors. A refrl-
gerator should always be well
ventilated, and so arranged that
the cold air from the ice chamber
should circulate freely in the food
chambers. In choosing a refrlgera-
tor, one having two separate com
partments for storing food and a
generous one for ice should be
decided upon, so that with the ice
in the center, the meat sorted on
one side will not faint the butter,
