4 SOLEMN MYSTERY.
Mark Twain Declared lt Cast Gloos>
 Over His Whole Life.


 Once upon a time Mark Twain was interviewed. After various questions the interviewer came to the question of relatives. and from then on. ac, cording to Twain's own version of things. the conversation ran thus:
 ''Who is this picture on the wall? Isn't that a brother of yoursT
 "Oh, yes, yes! Now that you remind me of it that was a brother of mine. That's William-Bill. we called him. Poor old Bill"
 "Why, is he dead, then?"
 "Ah, well. suppose so. We never could tell There was great mystery about it."
 "That was very. very sad. He disap- peared. thenY'
 Well, yes, in a general sort of way. We buried him."
 Buried him. Buried him without knowing whether he was dead or not?' "0h. no; not that! He was dead enough"
 Well. confess that I can't under. stand this. If you buried him and you knew he was dead"-
 "No, no. We only thought he was" "Oh, see. He came to life again." q bet he didn't"
 "Well, I never heard anything like this. Somebody was dead: somebody was buried. Now. where was the mys- tery:"
 That's just it, That's it exactly! You see, we were twins. defunct and [, and we got mixed in the bathtub when we were only two weeks old. and one of us was drowned, but we didn't know which Some think it was Bill; some think it was me"
 Well. that was remarkable. Wha. do you think?'
 "Goodness knows! I would give whole worlds to know This solemn. this awful mystery has cast gloom over my whole life. But will tell you a secret now which have never re- vealed to any creature beforeS One of us had peculiar mark. a large mole on the back of his left hand. That was me. Tint child wae t'ie one that waa drowned So you see they made au awful blunder was drowned. bri they went and buried the wrong child.

 And behold the flame of the third torch, which has already be. hun to destroy our family relations our Standard of art and morals. The relations between woman and man IS accepted as prosaic part nership of the sexes. Art has be- come realistic degeneracy. Polit ical and reliei ous disturbances have shaken the spiritual found- ation of all nations. Only small spots here and there have remained untouched by those three destruc- tive flames. The anti-national war in Europe, the class war in America and the race war i'll Asia have strangled progress for half a century, 1 see a hero of literature and art rising rom the ranks of the Latins and purging the world of the tedious stnff of the obvlous. It is the light of symbolism that shall outshine the light Of com mercialism. In place of polygsmy and nonogamy Of today there will come poetroamy-a relation of the sexes based fundamentally upon poetic conceptions of life.
 And 1 see the nations growing wiser, and reslizing that the allur- ing woman of their destinias is, after all nothing but an illusion. There will be a time when the world will have no use for armies, bypoeritical religions and desener- ate art. Life is evolution. and evolution is development from the simple to the more complicated forms Of the mind and body. l see the passing show of the world drama in its present form, now it fades like the glow ot evening upon the mountains. One motion of the hand of commercialism and a new history begins. o

Tolstoy's Pro-
 phetic Vision
This startling interview with Count Leo Tolstoy was presented to the
 Car in the Autumn of 1910.

The following is an interview with Count Leo Tolstoy by his gre at-niece. Countess Nastasia Tols- toy, in the autumn of 1910, the orig inal copy having been presented by her to his majesty. the Czar: This is a revelation of events of a'universal character which must shortly come to pass. Their spirit ual outlines are now before my eyes. 1 l see floating upon the surface of the sea of human fate the huge sil- houtte of 8 nude woman. She Is with her beauty, her polse, her smi- i le. her iewels-a suDer-Xenus. Nat ions rush madly after her, each Of them eager to attract her especially. But She, like an eternal courtesan, flirts with all. In her hair orname- mt Of diamonds and rubies is engr- aved her name 'Commercialism' :.
 Is alluring and bewitching as she seems, much destruction and agony follows in her wake. Her breath, reeking ot sordid transactions, her greed are so much poison to the nations who tall victims to her cha rms.
 And, behold, she has three gi- gantic arms with three torches of universal corruption in her hand. The first torch represents the flame of war, that the beautiful couttesan 1 carries from city to city and coun- try. Patriotism answers with flash es of honost flame, but the end is the roar of guns and musketry.
 The second torch bears the fla mes of bigotry and hypocrisy. It lights the lamps only in temples and on the alters of sacred institut- ions. It carries the seed of falsity and fanatism. It kindles the minds that are still ia cradles and follows them to their graves.
 "The third yorch is that of the law, that dangerous foundation of all unauthentic traditions, which first does its fatal work in the family, then sweeps through the larger worlds Of literature, art and statesmanship.
 ''The great conAagration will start about 1912, set by the torch of the first arm in the countries of southeastern Europe. It will de- velope into a destructive calamity in 1913. In that year see all Europe in flame and bleeding. l hear the lamentations of huge bat tlehelds.

Air Brakes for Aeroplanes.

A highly ingenious device is about
to be embodied in new British aero
plane now nearing completion. A diff
ficuIt problem, which has always con-
fronted the aeroplane designers. has
been that of enabling machines to
land at re, onably slow speed and
vet fly as fas 8 possible. The neces-
sity of this provision may be gagged
from the fact that the modern aero
nlane, with its full load, weighs the
better part of ton, and that the
usual flying speeds range from sixty
tn eighty miles an hour. Accordingly
Mr.. A. v. Roe. the well-known de-
signer. has adopted the expedient OF
providing his latest biplane with what
he termed "air brakes" These con-
sist of flaps hinged to the rear of the
planes, capable of being turned at
right angles to the direction of fight,
With the object of enabling the pilot
to reduce his speed materially pre-.
paratory to sighting.

large rosette of them set against the

The pretty. airy, pure-white hat,
which looks something like a white
orchid in millinery, and something
like glorified sunbonnet, is made OF

NUNS. There is a draping of white
maline over the top, fastened with two
small rosettes of black velvet, one at
each side. The hat is shaped with
fine wire supports, the back portion
filled In with foundation Of wire net
covered with broad bows of ribbon.
Maline in black with hair lace braid
make up the wonderful little piece Of
millinery art worn. by the girl with a
fan. There is a small, round hat OF
shirred maline and hair lace over a
wire frame Ruff1es of maline with
thread wire inclosed in hens, aDpar-
emily, provide what passes for brim,
but is in reality misty halo about the
face.
These hats follow no set style. They
are not freakish. They are beautiful
efforts on the part of some artist who
is able to take the frivolous materials
at hand and interpret the gaiety OF
youth and midsummer with them.

ings. For June weddings, any one
of the three hats pictured here would
be happy choice for the bridesmaid.
AS beautiful and buoyant as butter
flies, these hats are designed for the
ephemeral summertime; two of them,
at least, in an ephemeral style.
However brief their little lives,
beauty and originality are theirs.
Originality SO striking, in fact, that
these hats are unique, but of char
acter not likely to be repeated. Hats
similar to the largest one of the three
we are likely to have always with us,
but the othef, two, we have not seen
their like before, and others, drawn
from the realm of fancy and poetry,
will replace them in the next summer
time.
The large hat of point despril net
and lace is really wide brim made
of lace ruffle, mounted on a cap
made OF the net. This cap, edged
with q band OF black velvet, sets down
on the head. The scant ruff1e of fine
lace is supported by short wires and
gathered at the inner edge over
wire. The rufTle is set on the cap at a
picturesque angle. There is wreath

She gripped the fiat stone against

broken blade of an Indian knife that
lay on the floor. until her fingers
found hold, and ended it up against
the chimney. A narrow black opening
was exposed. stared down with lack
luster eyes, startled, but unable to
realize the purpose Driven by fear
she wasted no time in either explana-
ton or urging. Doubtless my face told
Its own story, and made her desperate.

dragged me about, until my feet dam
