MISS SUSAN,
THE STORY OF A WOMAN’S LIFE.
I satin my little parlor otic night, after school,
and the name the children' had given me years
before sounded oddly enough. 1 said it, over
and over in unthinking, or rattier in a preoccu
pied way, until it lost all its meaning, and I be
came a little doubtful in my own personality.
The name did not seem to lit me at nil, and 1
felt quite like a hypocrite lor ever having an
swered to it 1 thought 1 knew myself pretty
well, and fell to wondering whether I had a
right to he so calm and mild and patient, so
long-suffering, so unresisting, so tame as 1 was
iu the school room.
Some teach naturally, some by the grace ot
God; but as for me, 1 thought of great and
strong necessity, rebelled, my will keeping my
self out ot sight mennwhi'e. I ml not sure,
after all, but it was the very best discipline 1
could have bad, but I know X did not think so
at the time. I was then—but it is uo matter
how old I was—not that 1 was ever careful ot
my years, but people measure them so differ
ently. I was lull forty-live in knowledge of
suffering, though my cheek was not wilted as
It is now, aud my eyes then had a kind of slum
bering fire in them that I never liked to en
counter in the glass. It brought me too near
mv own spirit, and of that I was afraid.
But that night, years ago, when I sat in my
parlor alone, the children all gone, aud the
bouse filled with ghostly silence, I was exult
ant, and gave an unchecked rein to myself.—
There wa6 much delight in acting what I felt;
in throwing off the abhorred Miss Susan; who
wore my garment day by day, and reproved me
at every turn, till she became like the horrible
monster that haunted its remorseful maker to
death, I seemed to have dual existence, each
file praying upon the other, and demanding
rights that could never be conceded. Miss
Susan believed in God ; I doubted His mercy;
Miss Susan had faith in humanity ; 1 distrust
ed even my little children ; Miss Susan had a
heart to love and be loved ; I could live alone
unloved and unloving. Yet Miss Susan was
not sentimental, nor was I cold. The fact of
existence was a jov to me. The grass was a
delight to senses, even more than the Mowers,
because Us universality gave rest to both men
tal and physical vision. The mountains brought
peace, the rivers exhilaration, the skies exulta
tion. Books were a perpetual joy; thought
afar ofl a greater. But there was one liue of
thought that haunted me everywhere, aud that
could be thrown off only by strong aud per
sistent effort of the will. Even then it had its
(V "**><***,>
Sri-tUcckh) tFonGtitutionolist.
revutii'e, aud crept into my dream when the
will w;ik asleep.
Wlisit I feared most of all wsst the past.—
There hud been a time when I was not Miss
Susan, hut daughter Susan, and sister Susie;
aud when I was no longer daughter, the moth
erly element entered into the sisterly, and I
Jived my childhood over again in my little
Emily. At lirst I hated the child in my natural,
unreasonable way, because the mother died
that she inii>ht live, and my infinite loss I
thought could never be made gofld by the little
atom that grasped so helplessly at life, and clung
as to the hem of its garment, hut would not be
shaken off.
My father was a strong man with a violent
nature, which tell to my lot,* while Emily was
gentle and reasonable, like the mother. Forced
lo care for her, I was won by her innocent
ways, though my will held out long alter uiy
heart succumbed.
My father bore the shock of the sudden death
as a tower bears the shock of the ocean, out
wardly unmoved, but secretly undermined;
and when he fell I was alone with Hie child, the
innocent cause of my double bereavement.—
Then, and not till then, did I turn to her. The
love of my life was lavished on her, and I had
neither thought nor inclination for any other.
As soon as she had passed the period of baby
hood, and the little feet could run without my
care, T took the first steps toward securing a
livelihood lor us both. The homestead was
mine, together with the father’s scanty savings
lor fifteen or twenty years ; but. I had my own
plans for this sister child of mine, and must
prepare for the future. It. was very hard to de
cide on converting the old time-keeping room,
so full of memories of the flead, into a school
room, but it was the best I could do. The
scholars came in slowly, and I was templed
more than once to lay something else.
Quiet was irksome to me, my ambition al
ways oiit-ran both opportunity and strength.—
I had no patience with the serv’ce of those who
only stand and wait; so I worried aud fretted,
and was not always motherly to my poor Emily
I am afraid ; for how could I I*e edm and per
petually gentle with nerves strung to the point
of vibration? So innocently her eyes rebuked
me sometimes. 1 remember it all now. and see
where I lost my influence over her Often life
was very dull lo isle, and only for hope 1
should have eared very little at night whether
1 woke in Ibis world or the next, lint hope
brought, dreams to me, as she does to all who
trust in her, and the picture of my darling’s
In! lire was brought out in genuine 'l’il.ian color
ing on its black back-ground.
Time, that, wails for no man, is not a whit
more polite to woman ; aijd while I thought,
myself slill young, my child slipped out of
childish frocks and ways, hid her dolls, and read
romances, grew inattentive in school, and tried
my patience beyond its limit ot endurance. |
am at raid I was harder with her than any mother
would have been. I was si upid, I acknowledge,
hut how could I believe that this child cared
for any one but me V I saw it at last, and
put forth rny strong will, which was met by a
stronger.
I had marked ,David Tracy when lie first
came to Die place ; and thinking of it. calmly I
was not surprised I hat Emily should lie pleased
and llal.t.ered by his allcnfions ; slill 1 did not
believe that she loved him. He was a young
physician, young, though thirteen years her
senior, who lent loreed his way against every
obstacle, aud. s‘i ntol What every physician
failed lo do, I In* entire practice of live country
towns. 1 admin d fin' man’s persistency, and
his power lo compel circumstances,yet. I knew
enough of human nature lo lie sure that by
would never make my child happy. And I did
not like Ins way. If lie loved my sister, why
not come in a manly wav, instead of iultiieue
ing her by stealth and out of my sight ? I was
angry, and did not scruple lo reproach Emily
for task ol confidence in me. I suppose 1 took
the best means in I lie world to wean her tr<Tm
me and attaeli her to him ; at least 1 succeeded
admirably in doing both.
All her schoolmates envied her, ami that was
all in his laVor. Mias Susan was an old maid,
and naturally opposed young people because
she was sati.-.fied with her condition, and un
willing 11 in I they should lie happier than she.
Perhaps lie did not say just this, but lie meant
it, which is the same thing, and between ihc
two there came to be a tacit understanding,
and 1 was a third person.
If J could have proved him dishonest, or un
truthful, or in any way an immoral man, 1
could have had some advantage, bill, he stood
before the imumly a gentleman without re
proach, fair and honorable in all his dealings,
generous upon occasion, ami reasonable al
ways. I have a horror of reasonable men.—
They are pever surprised, never at a loss, can
never be corrected or reasoned with, because
they do all the reasoning themselves and were
correct and right from the beginning, and
ttu i e is nothing more to be said.
i could have lived with the doctor if, by any
possibility, love had gout* before and opened a
way ; and if we were never happy, we should
never have been utterly miserable ; bill I knew
it. must, be otherwise with Emily. She w.,s
never satisfied with love. Tier nature craved
if in a mo. hid way. Hut although it was the
very essence oilier being, the oil that fed l.lie
lamp of her life, she never sought if, nor even
from me. Well, in a little lime she and (lie
doctor were engaged. Site was only seven
teen, and I hoped to keep her awhile now that
that. I could not send her away to wiser teach
ers, hut the strong will clashed with mine
again and triumphed. A few limes the two
were together in public, she shrinking front
observation Willi all the delicate sensitiveness
of her nature; lie indifferently attentive at
times, again wholly absorbed in himself.
It was pitiful to see her eyes follow him,
those beautiful eyes so full of the heart’s long
ing. If lie had told liis love as most do, I think
she would never have loved him ; but the little
lie gave stimulated the desire tor more, and a
tinge of mystery completed the illusion. So
they were married and I lost her. Perhaps you
Who have more than one friend think it a little
thing ; besides, some gain byjuarriage. It is
ill no use to tell you liovv f Imved her, because
they who have loved know there is no power
in language to describe the depths of the heart,
and they Who have not would not under
stand.
At first she eaiue to see me every week, walk
ing! wo miles, because the doctor was necessa
rily away with the carriage. But, unaccus
tomed to such long walks, she was obliged to
discontinue them, and I went when 1 could to
see her.
I have had my dream for Emilv, never for
myself. lie home was so he a happy one, all
that is expressed in Ihc word home. I never
asked wealth or position for her, because. I
knew there would he nothing satisfying to her
in either. But Hod orders our ways.
In less than live years three children blessed
her hungry heart with unthinking love, and
wore away her life by their constant demand
for the care that she only could give. And
this she did give without, atiut, never thinking
of her own life so long as she was paid in full
in her own love coin. I watched her with an
old maid’s jealous eyes, and knew that this
was not all that made her pale and nervous,
and unnaturally bright ‘-'eyed. I knew that with
only a young and ineflicient country girl for
help, there was something for her to do in the
matter of supplying the physical wants only of
these healthy, restless, turbulent immortals. I
am endowed with a kind of violent discretion,
which, while it slops my tongue, has no power
over my eyes, and my presence was anything
but agreeable to the doctor ; slill I could not
keep away. Perhaps it was not my duty to
work like a poorly paid seamstress every
moment out of school hours to help clothe
mv little nephew and nieces, but bow could I
help it V
'l'hcre was no compassion in Hie doctor’s
face when his eye rested on lire delicate girl
mother, who hourly bent over the cradle and
sewed and sang sweet minor times lo Hie wide
awake baby who clung to its mother all day
long, and invariably chose the most restful
hours of Hie night for colic aud teething
spasms. It was to -him simply woman’s duty,
her destiny which she could not .well escape,
and for which she needed no pity. I over
heard one day his complaint of elder sisters
who invariably whined over young mothers
witli much pretended sympathy. There was
more in his tone than written words can ex
press. 1 know what she never dared think—
that she was less than a hired servant in her
own house. The man who was generous
aiming men, was worse than thoughless in
his own family. Her woman’s rights which
she would have demanded for the sake of her
own sell-respect were never granted. She was
afraid of him, with that fear which should have
made him reverence her.
lie would never appreciate she pitiful econ
omies she practised that herself and children
should be comfortably clothed with as little
aid as possible from him. Iler wedding out.tit
served for a time, aud when that was gone
there was no habit of asking on her part, and
none of giving on his to fall back upon ; and
there she was wounded to the Quick. Onee
only did I heard the lion in his den witli “I
wisli you had had one extravagant wife, Doctor
Ferry,” and the lion unmoved replied, “Then
I should never have had another.” And this
man who would give ten dollars to aoy friend
or enemy in need, aud in every good cause in
church and society, never seemed to feel that
|6he who was always in need and wholly de
pendent had any claim on him.;

How well 1 learned to read tier in a lew
months! It was something new to economize
so for children, and so pleasant.' 1 know the
thought of asking him for a mere pittance cost
her many a tearful night; and I know too well
that when she had counted the cost of every
uccdlul article she always asked him for a little
less than would suffice, aud blushed for very
shame that she should he so very cowardly, aud
he whom she would gladly honor so mean.—
Besides, she lived in constant fear of my dis
covering this, aud thought her little artifices
blinded me.
One day I asked her to go with me to the
town, ten miles distant, hoping that change of
air and seeue might bring a little of the old
color to her cheeks, and restore the lost appe
tite. The young country girl, finding the place
a hard one, had left, aud au old nurse must lie
procured to stay with the babes, and Saturday
was my only leisure day.
The early part of the day. was spent with an
old friend, who, shocked at Emily’s changed
face and manner, spared no pains to make her
comfortable and to rouse her from her unnatu
ral, quiet mood. Afterward we weut shopping
for au hour or so, and 1 busied about the pie.-
cuts with which 1 designed'to surprise her, and
for the sake of which I had denied myself many
a comfort for weeks past, forgot how weary she
must be, till turning to look after her, I was
startled by the strange expression ot her face.'
Begging her pardon for any neglect, I was both
surprised and grieved to see her hurst into
tears, and, distressed at the thought of a scene
in so public a place, hurried her away to the
station, and took an earlier train home than i
had intended.
Before reaching Hie house 1 decided to spend
the night with her, aud reasoned myself out ot
a nervous dread of encountering the doctor. I
had a new fear added to those of mental malady
I dared not think of. The doctor was absent
through the night, and I watched under plea ol
taking care of the baby while she slept, if tear
ful dreams and sudden awaking, and frightened
cries ending in sobs lie called sleep. In the
gray light of Hie Sabbath morning I heard the
sound of horses’feet, and hurried to the door
that my poor child might not he disturbed in
her own quiet hour of rest; but instead of the
doctor, whom 1 dreaded to see, two officers
with a search warrant, confronted me “I’m
souy to say it, ma’am,” said the first speaker,
“but after you and the other lady left the store
on street, yesterday, several pieces of silk
were missed.” “And,” added I,he other, “the
younger lady acted very queer. We don’t like
to search the house, but it can’t be helped, you
see ”
But they found nothing? You are wrong.
Fastened within the folds of Emily’s dress was
part of a roll of flannel, so soft and comfortable
for tender baby limbs ; in the dress pocket three
pairs of little shoes and three of woolen stock
ings. That was all, and the silk must be search
ed for elsewhere; but there was sufficient
evidence that these little things were not paid
for.
Begging the officers to suppress my sister’s
name in any report they might make, 1 searched
every drawer with the aid of the doctor's private
keys, and happily corne upon his purse, which
I pressed upon them, ignorant of its contents,
but wildly wisldug its loss might leave him a
beggar.
Emily shrieked onee when (lie officers entered
Hie room, as if conscious of all ; Iml. when I
returned she stared at the wall and motioned
no* away.
And this was the end of my dream. It was
for this that 1 had lived thirty-eight years. If
the spirit ol Ihc patriarch’s wife could then
have whispered to me, Curse Hod and die ! f
should not I ave rebuked her with, “Shall we
receive good from the hand of Hod aud not
evil ?”
Il I had told you at first that when I sat in
my little parlor alone, ti e scholars all gone and
the school-room ghostly iu silence, aud stop
ping there had told you of one John Tracy
who loved me in my girlhood and who came
hack on that eventful night to rove his life
long; devotion, yon would have quarreled with
me for sending him away after years of hope
and wailing.
Hut now you have heard the story of
Emily’s brief tale, will you not let me go my
ways in peace, even unto the end o
pointed days ? I know what love may be-, but
it is not f>>r me ; I have outlived it. My impe
rious will has, T humbly trust, bowed l-» u.y
Maker’s ul, last, and I have found peace.
But the old feeling is not dead yet ; and I
look forward to a distant, golden day, when my
Emily’s little ones, now two thousand miles
way, will leave father and stepmother to see
Aunt Susan once more, and 1 have learned to
wait.

W3T A YOUNG LADY RETURNING TO IIEIt
country home, after a sojourn of a few months in the
City, was hardly recognized by her friends. In place of a
coarse, rustic. Hushed face, she Itad a soft ruby complexion
of almost marble smoothness, and instead of twenty-three
she really appeared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to
the cause of so great a change, she plainly told them that
she used the CIRCASSIAN BALM, and considered it an
invalu hie acquisition to any Lady’s toilet. By its use
any Lady or Gentleman can improve their personal ap
pearance an hundred fold. It is simple iu its combina
tion,as Nature herself is simple, yet unsurpassed iu its
efficacy in drawing impurities from, also healing, cleans
