mere was a good samaritan on . train from Newport to Bangor the other day, and the Fairfield (Me.) Journal thus tells of his journey: "When he got on the car double seat there was occupied by tired woman and four hot, tired, dirty, squabbling children. Did the newcomer, after a short remark about the nuisance of children travel ing, put his feet on the seat in front and bury himself in newspaper? Not he. As soon as he saw the party he folded up his paper, put it away, tucked his baggage in the smallest possible capaci- ty and cntieed the tired and dirty bits of humanity over to lis side of the car, getting some one just ahead of him to give up seat, so as to accommodate all four of them.

 ington Woman.
 The man who says that women have not originality not only speaks un- truth, but deceives himself, says the Washington Post. Every one has had occasion to go through room in the dark on moro or less frequent nightly occasions, when locking the back door had been forgotten or tue pitcher of ice water omitted from the nightly prepara- tions for slumber, and every one knows how each individual piece of furniture in each dark room tTaversed, including the pianos sharp corners and the rock ing-chair's twin projections is colhded with. And all these hard knocks arc sustained by tho stretch of bone from the knee to the ankle that is commonly called the ''sbin," and ii particularly sensitive because it has no layer of muscle, merely coat of sensitive skin to protect it. When open doors are run against the nose suffers. Now, there is a young Mrs. D., whose blue-eved baby is a year and 8 half old, and not infrequontly does Mrs. D. have to get up of a night, go downstairs to the refrigerator, and get milk for baby. She does not say how often or how seriously she was hurt be- fore her genius suggested tho brilliant plan which sho now has for avoiding these petty nocturnal injuries, but she really is proud of her plan for getting unscathcd through room in the dark, and has imparted it to her lady neigh bors. It is too clever an idea to be lost, and its great merit is in it's simplicity. The scheme is merely to walk backward. In the dark one can see as well going backward as forward, of course. The lower limbs are, when going backward, well protected from slight raps by the more or less liberal pad of muscle at the calf, and heels arc less sensitive than the toes. And if ono is to run into a door the blow can be better borne on the back of the head than on the face. Mrs. D $ genius,

SOME SAFE. STORIES.
Amusing Incidents Connected with the
 Safe Makers Business.


 A Boston safe-maker recently gave to ] Courier reporter a few amusing incl lents connected with his business. Locks, of course, will sometimes get put of order, and when a business man gan not lock his safe, or, worse yet, can not unlock 1t, he loses no time in send ing to headquarters for help.
 Not long ago we received hurried message from one of our customers, whose safe door had suddenly refused so shut far enoxgh to allow the bolts to be thrown. 4 workman hastened to the establishment, and glancing about the entrance to the safe, noticed a cent rest ing on one of the bottom 1anges. He picked it up, and the door shut and locked without any further trouble. The bill for the workman's time was probably large enough to prevent repe- tition of the occurrence.
 In another case of the same sort but ton from lady's dress was found by the expert in one of the lower bolt holes.
 Some years ago we delivered new set of vault doors for Q bank about two hundred miles away. Just aS the bank was ready to 90 into its new quarters we had telegram to send man at once. The bolts of the outer door would not throw far enough to lock it.
 Our man started off forthwith, and this is W hat ne found: The bank officers had fitted board flooring into the vesti- bule of the vault, but had omitted to bore holes in it to allow for the throw of the bolts. An auger and ten minutes work set cvery' thing right, but they made that piece Of board rather cXpen- sive luxury.
 Our morning mail brought letter from 2 man three hundred miles from Boston. His safe could lot De opened, and he was in Q distressing plight. Would we send an expert at once?
 Our man picked up his kit, took the next train, and arrived at the custom CTS office the next morning. The safe proved to be an old-fashioncd one, with large kcy-locil.
 There" said the owner, ''there is the safe. The lock has been working harder and harder for weeks, and now l am locked out must have some of my documents immediately. Never mind the damage, but break into 1t in short order"
 The expert tried the key, but it re- fused to work. Then he took Q small wire and picked out half 9 thimbleful of dirt and lint. Ec tried it again, and better-worl1ing lock was never seen.
 "How much is your bill?' asked the customer.
 Forty dollars"
 All right That is perfectly satis- factory, on one condition. Does any one in the place know your business here?"
 ''No one"
 "Very good. Get out by the next train and keep mum. I'd rather pay hundred dollars than have any of my friends know that I sent to Boston for a man to pick the dirt out of my key"

A WIDOWS SoLICITUDE.
Au Excellent Story Told by Barnum, the
 Great Show-Man.

'
 Great Show-Man.
 1T saw strange sight once going to show the strength of woman's grief for her dead husband" said Mir. Bar mum in one of his afternoon chats to a Chicago Tribune reporter.
 "The man had been an invalid so long that he was helpless. He lived in the mountains of Vermont. His wife went with him everywhere, an1, as the att mosphere in that region was always moist, the wife insisted that her invalid husband should never go out without his top coat and pair of buck mitts on his hands. No matter where those people were seen the man was attired for cold weather.
 He died. I attended the funeral. A lady who was present called my atten tion to something under the shirt-front of the corpse. A closer investigation showed that the object was the top coat which tho poor fellow had worn so much in his lifetime. The lady asked the widow why she had put the coat there and her reply was that he hadn't gone anywhere without it for years and she couldn't think of his not having it. The caskct was placed in a receiving vault When it arrived there it was agaln opened for last look. The widow was seen to finger about the body for several minutes, engaged in some thing, no one could see what. Then the casEet was closed and placed in the re- ceptacle. Aswe were being driven home the widow remarked to her lady friend to whom she had spoken about the coat: I feel better now, for l got his mitts in the coffin before it was closed: He had worn them so much that couldn't think of his being without them.'
 "The poor woman was so sincere about all this that it was some years be- fore I could get my consent to think that the sad situation had humorous DhaSe"

 Mothers who sometimes feel disposed to murmur at the restrictions involved in the care of little children may learn a lesson from this pathetic incident. narrated in the Home Magazine:
 I was tired of washing dishes; I was tired of drudgery. I had always been so, and I was dissatisfied. never sat down a moment to read that Jamie didn't want a cake, or a bit of paper to scribble on, or bit of soap to make bubbles. ''I'd rather be in prison," I said one day, than have my life leased out so," as Jamie knocked my elbow when I was writing to a friend.
 But moment came when l had one plate less to wash, one chair less to set away by the wall in the dining-roOm; when Jamie's little crib was put away into the garret, and it has never come down since. had been unusually fret ful and discontented with him that damp May morning that he took the croup.

There is no little boy worrying me to open his jack-knife and there are no shavingS on the floor. The magazines are not soiled with look ing at the pictures, but stand prim and neat on the readingtable, just as leave them.
 ''Your carpet never looks dirty" say weary, worn mothers to me.
 But my life is as weary as theirs weary with sitting in my parlor at twi- light, weary with watching for the little arms that used to twine around my neck, for the curls that brushed against my cheek, for the young laugh that rang out with mine as we watched the hissing coal fire or made rabbits with the shad- ows on the wall, waiting merrily to- gether for papa's coming home. I have the wealth and ease I once longed for, but at what price? And when I see other mothers with grown-up sons driving to town to church, and my halr silvered over with gray, 1 think what might have been had 1 murmured less at the proVi- dence of God.

ORIGIN OF BEN HUR.

How General Wallace Came to Write His
 Now Famous Novel
 Talking with an intimate friend of says writer in the New York Star, learned the true inspiration of his fam ous novel, Ben Hur." "Wallace was on an Eastern-bound train," said my in- formant, land while going through the drawing-room car he passed the open door of compartment in which sat Colonel Robert c. Ingersoll. Come in,' said the latter. I'm lonely in here, and want some one to chat with Wallace en- tered, and seated himself. All right, Colonel he said, what shall we chat about?' Lots of things, replied Inger- soil. Is there future hfe?' Looking out of the window dreamingly, as the express sped on, he answered his own query. Tdon't know-do you? Is there God? I don't know-do you? Was Christ the son of God? I don't know do you?' He paused and looked keenly at Wallace. The General was little embarrassed by tho abruptness of the great infdefS interrogatorieS. He re- piled: Really, IngersOll, I have never given much thought or study to the questions you propound. I had a Christian training, and I have always tacitly accepted them 'Indeed?' said Colonel Ingersoll, Why, man, you sur prise me! They are vital issues. have studied the subject thoroughly. Every man ought to. Now, take my advice and look into the matter. You'll find you'll agree with me- I went away from this interview both embarrassed and mortified said the General, that I did not feel competent to discuss so inn portant a matter with so learned a thinker. I made up my mind that l would never place myself again in so embarrassing a situation. l took down my books, and read every authority 1 could lay my hands on. After years study, so far from agreeing with the great agnostic in his expressed opinions, wrote Ben Hur.' That is my reply to himr"

Health and Exercise.

The fact that wrong is in many cases a mere expression of excess in what was right finds numerous illustrations. Most vices. indeed, can on this ground claim a highly respectable ancestry. The value of eXertion, again, in it's various forms (whother associated with work or play) has doubtless ever been. as it still is, discounted by the samo inherent risk. Thus it is thas we find even so great boon as physical cxer- else becomes in many minds, and not unreasonably, the subject of conflicting doubts. It has been overdone; tho re- creative mean has been passed and tho resulting exhaustion can find TO solace but in rest.
