Jlmika Tlnit Haiu Helped .Hark Twain.
The Critic says that Mark Twain has
reached tho terrible frankness of maturity
mid famo, anil "tolls talcs liko Illsmarck,
regardless whom ho hits, so long as tho
blow ib deserved." Tho example given Is
this Tiidd uheiid Wilson sentence at tho
beginning of a chapter in his latest book:
"hho was not what you would call refined;
she was not what you would call unrefin
ed. Hio was tho kind of woman who
keeps a parrot."
That Is Indeed an Illuminating Instanco
of the working of Mark's mind. A pri
vate letter from Mr. Clemens to a friend
In New York who Is Interested In statistics
affords aft analogous examplo of candor In
this passage:
"Tho buoks which havo most inllucnccd
