much thought to women; | had been
satisfied with my old mothers love,
and for the last ten years with the
love of a child. They were enough for
my thoughts to turn to during my voy-
ages. and they formed, as it might be,
star which shone brightly for me
during the darkest night and through
the fiercest storm. But now that
came home, and, without forewarning
or thought of it, found in the place OF
the child woman, with all womans

was in an honest way.
Jack ashore, in the person of Amos
Beecroft, was home-bird, believe me.
1t was one of my great pleasures when
returned home from a voyage to
walk from the docks to the little house
of shells in Brixton, and to peep
through the window at my mother,
bustling about, making preparation
for me, or, all the preparation being
made. and there being nothing else for
to do. to see her sitting in her chair,
pretending to work, while all the while

her a surprise, Therefore, if, as l
turned the corner of the street, | saw
her standing at the little cottage door,
or by the little garden gate, with her
hand to her eyes looking out for me,
I would dodge about, and wait till she
was inside. When all was safe, would
walk gently to the house, and would
look up above the little low window to
see that there wasn't shell missing in
"Beecroft, Mariner" and would creep
to the window and peep through. Then
| would softly turn the handle Of the
door, and cry out in my heartiest tone,
"Yo. heave, hop as was my fathers
custom before me when he returned

eyes, too, that made them dim, would
fondle and pat her shoulder to soothe
and calm the good old soul.
When 1 was man full grown, hav-
ing passed through thirty changes of
the seasons, l came home-from India
this time-and, peeping through the
window of our cottage, / saw that my
mother was not alone. A little girl
was with her, seven or eight years
old maybe, and my mother was talk
ing to her, pointing with her finger,
and nodding her head gently, after the
fashion of elderly women when they
are interested in what they are say
ing. The child sat, open-eyed and
still, listening to the old woman's Cos
sip. 1 doubted not that it was Of me

"Dearie," said Mrs. Loveydovey,

just read an account Of a man who

"Oh petulantly) don't be so stupid!
1t was interesting because she--er-

And he closed the eye again.
"Deariew calculated Mrs. Lovely

to mean Colorado, because there is
found more in the way Of recreation
and pleasure than in any other locality.
1t would fill much space to name the
many places which possess attractions,

Denver & Rio Grande railway will be

extra hardships of going after bear,

abound, can satisfy his ambition to the
fullest extent. Those who prefer less
laborious amusement for the summer,
as a visit. at the springs, resorts, etc.,
can be equally well pleased at the
numerous places of the kind. For
those who wish to unite business with
pleasure. is open the opportunity Of
prospecting or investing in Colorado
mines. and in this direction no place
promises such f1attering returns. The
mining interests, while having already
Welded enormous wealth, are only in

as frequently as the practical miner.
The latter looks only for the particu-

while the former tests everything he
finds and often discovers the mineral
