NJ W. E. Madison Station, Miss Ladies', did you
ever think what grand reception room this page
of THE CONSTITUTION is? We enter at mo 81 on
one side of THE CONSTITUTION building. The en-
trance, like that of Mammoth Cave, is small, but
after entering, you find the walls of this grand re-
ception room extend from the Atlantic to the
Pacific from the Great Lakes to the orange groves
of Florida. from the White mountains to the Rio
Grande The lovely presiding genius of this vast
room is our queen las well King of the Woman's
Kingdom, "Aunt Susie" / sympathized with Mrs.
Cleveland last fall in her excursion west and SOUTH
How tired she must have grown shaking hands
with so many people and Milling for so long at a
time that it would seem that her smile would be-
come set and her face, either sleeping or waking
would be one continued smile But that was for
three weeks only. How much greater strain is on
Aunt Susie, Her receptions are from January LIST to
December 81. 1t is true she occasionally calls in
Uncle Will to help her receive but as a rule she
docs the honors' by herself often think of her
at these receptions; dressed, not lady of fashion,
with the neck of her robe decoated and the sleeves
ditto but in neat black dress, with soft lace about
the throat caught together by pin, i'll which can
be seen the genial features of her '1iege lord"
seated in her easy chair, with her writing table on
her right, the waste basket her left ready for
callers First always comes the poets; some from
our southland, some from the far west some from
beyond the seas. Then come prose writer's, such as
Jenny June, Marion Hariand, Louise Alcotte and
others with their good advice and sparkling
thoughts, and Aunt Susie often has chat with
them before they pass on. AS they go the good
housekeepers come with random thoughts. These
thoughts, though short at random often hit the
mark. Then comes long train OF wives and
mothers; some sad some gay some worried some
contental opening their hearts to the dear editress
and getting good advice in return for their conf
dences AT this hour of the reception there arises
an odor as if the culinary department not afar
off We are reminded OF SOUP meats breads, pud-
dings, preserves, Wines coffee, etc. and tCll if not
now to eat, how to make. AS this necessarily busy
crowd by up steps the young ladies talk to
dear Aunt Susie and express themselves about all
the minor details that go to make home pretty
Our queen receives them sweetly and graciously ad-
vising them properly, knowing that when they call
again, after few years, that they will talk of cur
tains, carpets and salads, though now they speak
only of crochet lace, sachet and flowers Scattered
here and there among this crowd, are sad faced
girls and women on whose brows is written 'home-
less" With what confidence they approach Aunt
Susie for they know if help lie had through her
it will be given. After while they pass on with
lighter hearts, for their address is with the eii-
tress' and then comes hope after months of Ell
deayor and waiting, that they will be no longer
homeless. AS there comes a demand for ANYTHING
God seems to provide for that demand. As these
homeless o>es pass by, there comes few charming
benevolent women who say to our hostess: I'm our
homes vacant CHAIRS sympathetic natures
ask for some one to come and live with us that they
may do us good and that we may do them good
Thus both parties are helped. DR.. Talmage was
asked what the greatest word in his voca blary
and he answered "helpfulncss." If this lie true
with the great divine, surely it is with Aunt SUSIE,
for on the walls Of this grand room of hers hang
cCnspicuou=ly the mo.tOes "Ielpfulness, Sym
pathy' and Love" Then before us walks a self
reliant woman, whose every air proclams be r
teacher. It is good to hear her talk She feels in
DEPENDENT She is strong in her belief that "she
can paddle her own canoe" The arms sometimes
grow weary V tn oars, the voice hoarse but sum
mor vacation cheerful cl at with Aunt Susie and
she is again re0dy 10 battle with the world. Thus
the mighty thrOng goes by. 1t is over at last. Our
gentle hostess has grown eIry, but like many
brave iier, ''she dies game" There Is smile on
her lips TO the last None OF that vast multitude a.e
permitted to that she is tired, tired 50 it is
repeated week after week. For this work of love
may dear hostess whom we delight to call
AUNT SUSIE receive her ''rccOmpcnse Of reward"
here and hereafter.
