"She Has Outlived Her Fsef^?h??ss.,, HY MRS. J, CltAPL X. Not long f?nee, a good looking man in mid . die life came "to oi?r door, aski'Dg for '<l ihe ? minister." When hifbrmed that h? was ont" of town, he seemeddisappolnted arid anxious. On.being questioned aa to businessj-he replied: "Ihave lost my -mother, and this place vised to bc her home, aud as my father lies here, we have come to lay her beside him." - . . Our heart rose tn sympathy, and we siitf, ^"You have mei with a gteat loss ?". " Well-yes," replied the strong man, with, hesitancy, " a mother is-a great loss'in gen eral ; but nur .mother had outlived her use fulness. She was in her second childhood, and her mind wax grown as weak as her body, sio^rimt-fhe was no comfort to herself, and was a burden to everybody. There were -.even of m sorts and daughters; and, as we could not find any ono who would board her, we agreed to keep her among us a year about : but I have had more than my share of her; for she was too feeble to be moved when my time was out, and that was more than three months before her dc.-itb. But th.-rii alie was a ?rood mother in h-r day, and toiled very hard [w bring us up." Without looking at thc face o? the heart less" man, we directed him to the housc.of a neighboring pastor, and returned to our nur sery.' We gazsd on the merry little faces, which smiled or grew sad in imitation of oar?, those little ones to whose ear no word in our language j? half so sweet as " mother," and we wondered if that day could overcome when they would say of us, " She has outlived ber usefulness-she i* no comfort to herself, anti a burden to everybody else,"'-and we hoped that l/?forc buch a day would dawn we mi>;ht Be taken* to our rest. God forbid that *e should outlive thc love of our children.! Hither let us die while our heat ts are a part ol .their own, that our grave may be watered with their tears, nr.d our lo.-e linked with jtln-ir hopes of Heaven. When the bell tolled for tho mother's buri?!, we went lo the sanctuary to pay our only token of respect to ihe ?ged stranger; for we felt that we could give her memory a J rear, even though her own children had none tu shed. I She was a good mother in h?-- day and wiled hard to bring us all up-she was no comfort to herself, and a burden to everybody elseJ'' These cruel, heartless words rung in .>ur ears as we saw the coffin borre up the aisle. The bell tolled long and loud, until its iron tongue had chronicled the ye ra of the toil-worn mother. Une-two-three-four -five. How clearly and al:, ost merrily each ?troke told'of her once peaceful slumber in her mother's bosom, and of her seat at night fall on her weat y father's knees. Six-seven -eight-nine-ten-rani: ?jut the talc of her -pot ts upon thc greensward, in the meadow, tin) beside . the brook. Eleven-twelve thirteen-rpurleeii-.spoke more gravely of "-chool days and little household joys and cares. Sixteen-seventeen-eighteen-s. .to ed out tho enraptured visions ol' maidenhood and" the dream of carly love. Nfnvlea'n brought before us thc happy bride. Twenty spoke ot the young mother, whose heart was loll to bursting with thc new. strong love which God had awakened in her heart. And then stroke alter stroke told of her early wo manhood-ot the loves, and e ares, and hopes, .and fears., aud toils through which she pass?d during iluso, long years, till fifty rang out harsh and loud. From that to sixty, etch stroke told of the warm-hearted mother and grandmother, living ovc again her own sor-' rows in those of her children and children's children. ' ' Every family of all tho group wanted grandmother then, and tho onjy strife was .who should secure the prize; but, hark, the bell tolls cm j Si venty-seventy-or.?-l wo -three-four. She begins to grow feeble, requires some care, is not always .perfectly pa???nt or satisfied ; she goes from one child's house to another; so that no one place seems like home. She murmurs in plaintive tones, and after all her toil and weariness, iris hnrd "she cannot be allowed a home to die in ; that she must be saut rather, than invited from house to house. Eighty-eighty-one--! wo thies-four. Ah, she ia now a second child -now, "she has outlived her usefulness, she has now ceased to bc a comfort tp herself or anybody j" that is, shebas ceased to bc profita ble to her earth craving and money grasping children. ' Now sounds out, reverberating through our lovely forest, and echoing ' back from our " hilt-of the dead,1' eighty-nine 1 There ?he lies now in the coffin, cold and still-she makes no trouble now, demands no love, no soft words, no tender little offices. A look of patient endurar.ee, we faucied, also an ex pression of grief for unrequited love, sat on her marble features. Her children were there, clad in weeds of woe, and a's in irony we remembered the strong man's words, " She was.a good mother in her day." . Wb'< n tho boll ceased tolling, the strange minister rose to lhe*pulpit. Hts form was very erect, and his voice strong,. but his-hair Was silvery white. He read several passage.,-! of scripture expressive of God's compassloi to feeble man, and ^specially of hjs tender ness when gray hairs arc on him and ht?' strerrgth failetb. He then mnde" some touch ing remark* on human frailty, and .our de pendence on'God, urging all present to .make their peace with their Master while in hea'ti, that they might claim his promises whin hearEaud health failed them. "Theil!" le said, u the eternal God ?hall be thy refuge, and beneath thee shall be the everlastirg' arms." Leaning ovor tho desk, and gaziig intently on thc coffined form before bim-, ie then said reverently ; "From a little chile!, have honored thc aged ; but never till,gray hairs covered my own hoad, did I know trily how tnuch love and sympathy this class have a right to demand of their fellow creature. Now I feel iu" u Our mother," he added most tenderly,li who now lies in death before us, was a stranger to me, as are.all of thoo,. ber ?esceudants. All I know of her is what her son h?3 told me to day-that she vas brought td this town from afar. Bixtyrrine years ago, a happy bride-that here she aas passed roost of ber life, toiling, as only moth ers ever have strength to toil, until sho aad reared a targe family of sons and daughters -tbatshe left her home hero, clad in tho weeds of widowhood, to dwell among her children} nnd that till healtS' tlnd"strength left ber. Oed forbid that em?met should accuse any of you of ingratitude or murmur ing on account of the care she" has been to you of late. "When you go back? to your hoares, be careful of your, exam pie before your own children ; for the fruit of your own doing you will surely reap from, them when you.ypur se'ves totter on thc brink of the grave., I entreat you as a friend, as one who ha3 him-> self entered the evening of life, 'that you may never say in the presence of yourfami lies nor of "heaven ? M Our moth? bad Out lived her usefulness-she was aburden<o us." Never, nnver; a mother cannot live so long ns that ! No ; when she*can no longer lubor for her children, nor yet care for herself, she can fall like a precious .weight on their bo soms, and call forth by ?er helplessness, all the noble/.generous feelings of their natures." Adieu, then, poor toil-worn mother; there are no more days of pain for thee. Undying vigor and everlasting usefnlness are part of the inheritance of the redeemed. .
