There was something so purely Amere ican in the humor of Mark Twain, that his work soon made for him aplace in na tive literature. As a representative of American life and character his name extended even beyond the confines of the continent of Europe, into all lands and among all peoples. In Paris one cannot purchase a Bible at the book stall but one may find Roughing It at every cor mer. In Rome, The Innocents Abroad is one of the staples in the book marts. In Hongkong you will find Mark Twain. Everywhere they read him.
