Color Troubles of Whittier.

1t Is we'll known that the poet Whit
tier was color blind and unable to dis
tlnguish red from green. He once
bought for himself a necbtie which he
supposed to be of a modest and suit
able olive tint and wore it once He
never wore 1t again, for his friends
soon made him aware that it offended
against the traditional quietness of
costume enjoined alike by the habits
of the Friends and by his own taste.
The tie was Of flaming scarlet.
On another occasion, when he found
a little girl in distress on account Of
a new gown, made over from her elder
sisters, which was not becoming TO
her coloring and complexion, he tried
to console her.
IL wouldn't mind what a rude boy
says about it, Mary" he said kindly.
Thee looks very we'll indeed in it,
like an Dread. Mary, dressed all in
green"
Unfortunately, Mary was not dressed
in green. She was red-haired, and her
dress was red. That was the trouble.

Many Americans are astonished be-
cause they see grave discomfort in the
midst of unprecedented prosperity.
They can not understand the unrest of
many citizens, native born and natural
Ized alike, when the times are better
than ever before It Is nothing strange
Human ambition feeds on success. The
farther from actual want. men and
women get the more they desire. Com
fort Is conservative, but 1t is not an
opiate. If it were the world would
stagnate when it was best able to un-
dertake and carry out great enter
prises There is never enough prosper
ity to go around, in the important sense
of Approximate equality.

One Of the Philadelphia papers has
given considerable space to correspond
ence upon the problem of domestic
economy and the cost of living. Writ
ers whose resources vary widely have
given their experience and offered their
advice. One woman whose husband
gives her five thousand dollars a year
for her family of four is unable to get
along comfortably on that sum. She
wants a sample bill of fare for a week.
and also Information as to where she
can "get hat for less than fifteen dol
lars" Another woman with family
of three has less than five hundred dol
lars a year, yet she says they "have
the best of everything and plenty Of
IT." She does her own washing. IRON
ing. cooking. dressmaking and mending
has a garden and keeps hens. One of
these women ought to study domestic
science. The other might easily get a
chance to teach it.

Holding up railroad trains has be
come so common that it attracts no
more attention than the killing of a
few people on a trolley car, but the
exploit of a lone bandit in holding up
a train near Glasgow, Mo-, is a little
more interesting In this case single
robber, masked and with a pistol in
each hand, compelled a sleeping car
conductor, a porter and tiagman to
go before him and wake up all the pas
sengers in sleeper, and as fast as he
came to them demanded and received
their money. He then left the train
and there was the usual fruitlesS effort
to follow and arrest him. He got only
small amount because the door OF
the other sleeper was locked This is
the climax of what has always been
an astonishing thing, which is the abb
ject and unnecessary cowardice dis
played by both train hands and trav-
elers on such occasions. That women
will scream and that nine out of ten
men will cover and tremble Is to be
expected. The wonder Is that with
100 men on a train never is one found
of sufficient nerve and daring to put
train robber out of business. This is
remarkable because it is something
that could be easily done. 1t would
not be necessary to face the bandit and
begin duel with him. Any man with
n nj tn c of
could conceal himself in some dark
nook in the train and blow the banLit's
brains out as he passed, without ever
being seen. The facilities for such
strategy on a railroad train are in
Vulnerable. The way most men reason
about it is: This man will certainly
shoot me if give him any provOcation.
My life is worth more to me and my
family than my money. It would even
be cheaper to give up my money than
to receive a serious wound. 1t is the
business of the railroad company to
protect me and l am not going to do
its police work at the risk Of my life
No one will blame man for reasoning
in this way, but the wonder is that
there Is not occasionally some plucky
individual who will risk his life to kill
a villain and protect a trainful of pas
sengers. This is wonderful because
every newspaper contains an account
Of some feat of heroic daring in other
walks of life. In the last year hun
dreds of people have risked their lives
to save others from drowning or from
burning to death. Even women rush
into burning buildings to save a pet
dog or parrot. Mr. Carnegie has estab-
lished a mill to turn out medals, di-
plomas and pensions for heroes and
the applicants are innumerable. When
will it happen that a Carnegie medal
was given to man who rushed at
railroad bandit with pistols in his
hand and choked him to death in the
presence Of the passengers? 1t may
be that not many men on a railroad
train have pistols with them, but if
that is so they ought to carry them
when they take long railroad journeys
in this country.

Harper's Weekly publishes a story
to the effect that in the reading-room
