As one who was brought up conserva- tively and almost prudishly,” said a woman, “you may imagine my sensa- tions upon finding myself some years ago one of a houseful of visitors which included Miss Susan B. Anthony. Dhad before that never so much as seen Miss Anthony; I only knew of her theories from hearsay, and a very one- sided hearsay at that, and I had been taughtto look upon her as represe nt- ing allwthat was radical and obnoxious inwomankind, but I hadn’t been under the same roof very long before I com- pileteLy. lost my heart to her. She was-such a dear old thing, with snub/akindly way with her, and she seemed to love all of us, young and old, whether we agreed with her‘ or not. fibbve all. I could not but be impressed hmher sincerity.» I had always sup- wscd‘ before that there was a lot of pose among the women suifragists, but there was no discounting Miss An- many . We were all ‘my dear’ to her, and she had a way of putting her hand on dressed plainly, but with a certain uharacten- At public meetings , and private 1ecep'tions In her honor she wore a black silk brocade made with a full, plain Ski1t and plain, tight-fitting Moe that buttoned st1a10'ht down the 1‘ront.

It was the. inevitable accompaniment of every costuinez.s.he wouldn’t have been Miss Anthony; without it. She told us many goodstcries in the course of that visit, most of. which have probably found their way into print since then, but there was no story I enjoyed so much as that illustrating why the average woman couldn’t ‘speakup in meeting.’ The trouble lies with the woman her~ selfhsaid Miss Anthony. ‘If she want- ed to “speak up,” she could do it well enough. As it is, when sne mounts a platform she snuggles her chin well down in her collar and draws her chest Lnahd drops her voice, and then won- ders how it is she can’t be heard. If that same woman were to see her small boy playing in the street and wanted him to come into the house, do you think she would snuggle her chin down in. her collar and draw in her chest and drop her voice like that? Not a bit of it. She would take a good long breath and throw her head back and lift her chest and cry at the top of .her lungs, “John, come in here!” and John would hear he1 and come, and so would any audience heal her if she were to dothe same thing on the plathrm. Other women righ—ters whom I had seen and heard might be guilty of us- ing ‘cause’ simply as a theatre invwhich to exploit their own personalities, but not she. She was honest to the core. To hear her, both in public and pri- sate, was to believe her, not to say to love her. Miss Anthony was very fond of young people, and she showed this in a. way that won us at once. She delighted in talking to us-nthere were several young girls in the house—and, what was even more flattering, she seemed to find pleasure in having us talk to her. Much of her conversation consisted ii) what she called. ‘reminiscing,’ but though it was all about the very public He she had led, there was none Of it, mshe toldit, that was not interesting _v1ronment To-day I don’t believe in woman’s suffrage any more than I did then, but it would take a great deal to shake my faith in its chief apostle, Miss An- thony.” . .
