I have the following formula which I'd like to typeset in LaTeX.  

       \mu s_j
\delta
       s_i s_j

Does anyone have a solution which will align the indices both horizontally 
and vertically?  (N.B. The solution given in the LaTeX manual
$\delta{}^\mu_{s_i}{}^{s_j}_{s_j}$ does not work as the second column is 
lifted by the descending j's.  Replacing {} by \mathstrut works on some 
systems, but not on others).  Many thanks in advance ...
