WHEN YOUTH WAS GLORIOUS
Many There Are Living Who Could
Have Directed Mark Twain In His
Search for Material.

The adventures of Sam" Clemens
and his comrades would fill several
books of the size of "Tom Sawyer"
Many of them are of course forgot
ten now, but those still remembered
show that Mark Twain had plenty Of
real material, writes Albert BigelOw
Paine in st. Nicholas. 1t was not
easy to get money in those days, and
the boys were often without it. Once
"Huck" Blankenship had the skin of
coon he had captured, and offered
to sell it to raise capital. At Selm's
store on Wild Cat corner the COON
skin would bring ten cents. But this
was not enough. The boys thought
of a plan to make it bring more.
Selm's back window was open, and
the place where he kept his pelts was
pretty handy. Huck went around to
the front door and sold the skin for
ten cents to Selms, who tossed it
back on the pile. Then Huck came
back, and, after waiting reasonable
time, crawled in the open window,
got the coonskin and sold it to Selms
again. The boys did this several
times that afternoon, and the capital
of the band grew. But at last John
Pierce, Salm's clerk, said: 'Iook
here, Mr.. Selms, there's something
wrong about this. That boy has been
selling us coonskins all the after
noon" Selms went back to his pile
of pelts. There were several sheep
skins, but only one coonskin-the
one he had that moment bought.
Selms himself, in after years, used 20
tell this story as a great joke.
