Why, the idea! Did she want me to dress like @ little frump of @ country girl? It seems she did. Poor mother! Dear mother! 1) | wonder how she kept her patience @t all, But she kept it. I remember | that distinctly, too, It was that winter that.I went thru | the morbid period, Like our child- hood's measles and whooping cough, | women children. I wonder why?) Certainly it came to me. True to type | 1 cried by the hour over fancied | slights from my schoolmates, and brooded days at time becaune | Father or Mother “didn't under-| stand” I questioned everything in the earth beneath and the heavens | above; and in my dark despair over an averted glance from my most intimate friend, I meditated on) whether life was, or was not, worth the living, with a preponderance to- ward the latter. Being plunged tnto a state of set- |tled gloom, I then became acutely anxious as to my soul's salvation, | and ology that caught my roving eye's attention, until in one short month I had become, in despairing rotation, an inctplent agnostic, athe- | ist, panthelst and morflst. Mean- | while I read Ibsen, and wisely din- cussed the new school of domestic relationships, Mother—dear mother!—looke@ on aghast. She feared, I think, for my life; certainly for my sanity and morals, It was Father this time who came | to the rescue He pooh-poohed Mother's fears; said it was indi- gestion that alled mo, or that I was srowing too fast; or perhaps I didn't | get enough sleep, or needed, maybe, & good tonic. He took me out of! school, and made it a point to a-| company me on long walks He! talked with me—not to me—about | the birds and the trees and the sun- | sets, and then about the deeper! things of life, until, before I realized it, 1 was sane and sensible once moro, | serene and happy in the simple faith of my childhood, with all the tema) and ologies @ mere bad dream in the | dim past. 1 was seventeen, if I remember | rightly, when I became worried, not | over my havenly esate now, but my earthly one I must have a career, of cours, No namby-pamby every- day living of dishes and dusting and meals and bables for me. It was all very well, of course, for some peo- | Pin Such things bed to ba But for me— I could write, of course; but 1 was not sure but that 1 preferred the stage At the same time there was within me a deep stirring as of a call to go out and enlighten the | world, expecially that portion of it in darkest Africa or deadliest India I would be a missionary. |_ Before I was eighteen, however, | I had abondoned all this, Father put | his foot down hard on the missionary | Project, and Mother put hers down jon the stage idea I didn’t mind so ioe. tho, as I remember, for on |further study and consideration, I |found that flowers and applause were jnot all of an actor's life, and that Africa and India were not entirely destrable as a place of residence for ed young woman alone.
