MISS cUsHMAN AND MR.. FORREST.
MISS CUsHMAN g HUMILITY.


In spite Of all her triumphs, at times, all
through Miss Cushman's life, she seemed to dis
trust herself. 1t was perhaps a secret of the
continuous strength she showed, that she was
never quite satisfied, and always anxious to ex-
coed what might reasonably be expected Of her.
She always regretted the want Of early syste-
matte training, and priced the opportunity of
seeing great actors. Of Rachel she wrote: 81
used to look on in perfect rapture of wonder
and admiration at her unapproachable art; and
often, as left the theater, and compared my
own acting with hers, despair took possession
of me, and mad impulse to end life and effort
together"

LIFE.

And SO il is, this life Of ours,
rms mystery of mysteries;
one moment spent among the flowers.
Inc next upon the raging seas.
\ tangled skein; all woyenu
of little fibers with the years;
VI pleasures drained from Folly's cup
81 satisfaction and of tears.
In Youths sweet hour, fun, tenderly.
Old Time takes up the silken thread.
And winds the skein that is TO be.
life God made, and one God fed.
And when perplexities creep in
To cause the mind to grow distressed,
To cause the heart to ache with sin,
And blur the future Hope has blessed.
Times fingers tremble, and the thread
That weayes the tissue of the mind
Is strained; and with the heart-strings,
Led astray by every passing wind
And doubts are nurtured into fear:
And sunny thoughts are checked
with shade
Until, with greatest force, appear
The mysteries that God has made.
The future curtained from our view,
The present with its problems deep;
The past. all knotted thro' and thro'
With purposes we could not keep.
And we become perpleXed, and seek
And grope-and seek-and never find
And thus the life that once was weak
Grows hard NJ heart, aud strong of
mind.
And yet, sometime, perchance, afar-
A Father in his loving reign
viii loose the mysteries that mar,
And ravel out the ''tangled skein.''
