SUSANNA MORTON.
._..?....._ :-
If there was one thing in all he experi-
ence that Susanna Morton wa& heartily
tired of it was the evident and eontinuoue
purpose of mankind to:permit her to remain
a spinster.
True she had ben one so long it would
seem that she should have beeoine accus-
tomed to it ; but by some fatality women—
that is the majority—of women—never- ac-
cept their lot in this Christian spirit which
has won for them the endearing title of the
gentler sex.
And Susanna, Morton had put up with it
as long as she was going to.
Four leap - years had passed her by, and
each year ehe had submitted, but each year
less gracefully than she had done the year
previously, and there were moments b the
last of the four when she became almost
desperate. Now that a fifth had come her
mind was made up. She would take the
reins of Cupid in her own han s and drive
that harum-scarun little rams in a manner
to suit herself. SJknew her good points,
one of which was at she w s thirty-five
years old or the bouts, an possessed a
poise and balance man who was looking
for a real sensible %vein= as wife could
afford to disregard. In additi n to this she
had—what men seldom disregard -4 com-
fortable fortune.
It Walt this fortune that had been the real
stumbling block in the matrimonial path of
Susanna, and not any lack of 'attractive
qualities in her posseseion, for she was not
homely, nor was she enything but Charm-
ing. The fortune, however, which was hers
from her sixteenth birthday, had developed
in her a fear that men sought for her money
and not for herself, and, never having fallen
in love with any of her courtiers, she did
not find it difficult to resist advances, be-
lieving as she did that men were mercenary,
as a rule, and that some day the one man in
all the world for her would, appear and
claim her as his own.
However, he id net appear, and he con-
tinued not to tipeer, until Susanna had
reached an age, nd a firmness, of character,
to put it mildly, hich would have to be at
least doubled to make her as attractive as
she was at tiven y.
This knowled e had come to her gradual-
ly, but was noni the li as foreeful on that
account, and ehi was etermined wet to let
this leap year pt se wit4iout results Of a last-
'
ing character.
Of the men in ber tri.in there were per-
haps half a doze who were eligible and any
one of whom wo id ha e made a husband

Among the half doz:n was one who found
the greatest fevor i • Susanne's eyes, the
others taking their po Wong' after him in
regular gradation, sncl this one Susanna se-
lected as her victim fo leap year, resolved
to try all others in cas of failure in tbe first
instance.
Truly, Susanna ne s a desperate spin-
ster.
And no less spry. fo in the course of his
first call in the new Year she began her
operations. But it was a dreadful task,
and the evening passed without a 'single
'step taker' forward. The effort had been
made, however, and c urage always comes
with effort.
When he came agai she was so wrought
up over the work befo el her that her eyes
sparkled and her oh eks glowed in rosy
color.1 1 ,
He was ten yeare older than she, and al-
ways assumed that bless -My -80W style

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Culver," she twit-
tered, "I'm suns you only think so. I look
just es I always look."
"Of course, Miss St Fianna, only slightly
more so." He smiled, but there was that
in hie tone which had he ring of insincer-
ity,ielr an least superfi ial and . society sin-
berity, which is very early the same thing,
and *hid' made Susa a na despise the flat-
tery of men that so f r meant to her no

(f he s emed , to have forgotten whether
Susanna looked like a fright or a fairy,
and began tillking about all sorts of things,
as people do who talk for the mere sake of
talking.
At, all events, that's the way it presented
itself to Susanna, and she felt the spirit of
desperation slowly creeping over her. She
took a long breath for encouragement, and
tentatively turned the subject of conversa-
tion upon the most, recent wedding which
had occurred in their eirele.
"What a pair of fools they were and
are," said Mr. Culver, pentimentally, "to
marry on nothing but hie salary, and that
not big enough for two."'
"But they are happy," argued Susanna.
"1 suppoee so," Ma. Culver unwill ugly
admitted; "it takes fools too to be h ppy ;
wise people know too much,"
"Are yott wise?" questioned Sus nna,
nervously, fqr she felt that she was la nch-
ing herself at this point upon an unk own
sea.
"I'm old enough to be," Mr. C iiver
frankly responded, for Mr. Culver' age
was too well known to be denied, an too
great to be hid under a bushel.
"Isn't there something somewhere bout
the old fools being 1 the biggest ?" lau thed
Susanna.
"But I'm not so old as that, yet."
"Ah !" and her eyes twinkled. "18 yours

"Standing with reluctaut feet,
Where the silly seasons meet?"
Mr. Culver assumed a more serioue air
and there was a smile on his face when he
replied; there was rather a shadow f re-
gret :
"Yes, Miss Susanna," he said, "1 db not
stand reluctant, for I think if I had been
more of a fool in one regard I would have
been less of a, foolin another. That is to
say, a man is a fool to waste his life selfish-
ly as I have done."
This was the auspicious moment dueanna
had been seeking. She would now. lead
right up to the matter and find a lietener to
her proposal. ,
"Why don't you marry, Mr. Culver ?"
she asked, with directness. "You are not
too wise to consider the question, I hope."
"Certainly not, Miss Susanna, he
smiled. "I've been considering it for 20
years."
"Then you ought to -stop considering it
and pop it." Susanna laughed and Mr.
Culver a so.
"I h rdly think I'll ever do that," he

Surely no, finer opening could be presented
to a young Isvnarian in her mood than this,
and Sueann gave herself a shake and took
another lon hreath. The time had come,
and she wa not the woman to lose so glori-
ous an opp rtunity.
, -"Mr. Cu, ver,” she began, in a firm voice
and with gr, at earnestness. "I have for a
long time b en thinking you ought to marry
and I hav even one so far as to select
just such a roman al I think would suit
you. I hav had two or three consultations
with her, a d she ia willing that I should
preeent the )atter to , you, becausel I know ,
you so well, and you will understa,n it bet-
ter from me than if She should p mut it
herself.".
When she was abo t to proceed further
with her ren arks, Mr. Culver showpd signs
of real anxie y and ar se to his feet.
"Miss S sauna," e exclaimed, "don't
say another vord. R ally, I cannot listen
to 't."
. But I mt et say it o you," she insisted,
because', as i seemed o her, that was the
proper way ti condue a successful court-
ship, and no that he had begun it ehe
most deoidedlly wished it to be successful.
"I tell yoi I won't hear it. This is en-
tirely unexp ctecl, and I am sure nothing in
my conducbl has ever warranted you in
broaching thiL subject to me."
Mr. Culverll'was very evidently in -earnest,
and Susanna , lmost chuckled to herself, for
this was the ery way young women acted
under the cir umstances in which Mr. Cul-
ver was place . All it needed now was a
little more c axing, and -Susanna nerved
herself for the final pop.
"Perhaps You have not thought so," she
said in her softest voice, " but to me there
has ever been desire to say to you what Iw ll
am nosayiig. Mr Culver—John," and
Susenna aame very cies° to. him, notwith-

The Louisville Commerciel prints a story
at the expense of a gentleman of that city,
not sparing his name, which is here omitted.
This gentleman, wishing to take bis fam-
ily into the country for the summer,looked
at a small farm with a view of renting it.
Everything was very much to his mind,
and the negotiation was nearly completed,
when the question of hiring also the farm-
er's cow came up. She was an excellent
cow, the fernier said, and even after feeding
her calf wonld give five quarts of milk a
day.
"Five quarts a day !" said the city man;
"that is more than our whole family can
use."
Then, noticingthe calf following its mo-
ther about the pasture, he added :
"1 tell you whet, I will hire the small
now. I think she's justabout our size."

" What's this ?" he said. William wa
dumfoUnded. "Pack up your things an
go," said the manager.
do poor William went to the office, dte
the money which was owing to him, an
then went upstairs and put on his Sunda
clothes.' Coming down, he , went te se
"Good-bye" to some of the other servants,
and there he happened to run across th
manager, who did not recognize him in hi

ager.
"Yes, sir," said William.

The Child As Father To he an.
The general law hi that the young of any
animal tenba to reproduce thefeatures if its
ancestors., It is nearer the primitive $ ock,
al it were, and repeats in its, brief hi tory
the evolution of its race. The young fro be-
gins life as a fish, because the frog rac has
been derived from the fishes. ; Then ii be-
comes a newt or eft, because the next stage
in frog evolution was through the new type.
Finally the newt Stage loses its tail, and we
get the frog as die lastand highest term in
the biographical history. So it is to a great-
er, or more frequently to a leis degree, with
all other animals. In the paling of many
quadrapeds, which have no variation in col-
our at all when they are full grown, we find
stripes, arid this fact would indicate a de-
scent from ancestors of striped appearance.
So also we may fled a onetoed animal, like
the horse, occasionally born with three toes,
This is a reversion or " throw -back" to the
three -toed ancestor of the horse, an ancestor

lighter colo, than his sire ;xhibjts, tat
fact, alone might not demons ratel that the
black race has descended from a lighter col-

some interesting consideratioas, having for
their object the settlement of the question
whether negro blackness w4seriginal or ac-
quired. But, as I have sa d, let us first be
