In the Shadow of Pixies Peak
EOn my round about trip to the
Panama Canal as the special CORE
spoudent of the Times / tind myself
on the first stop at that famous resort
city of the west, which, in the Ian
guage of Helen Hunt Jackson, lies
east OF the mountains and west OF the
SUM-" l refer to Colorado Springs;
and the description giveu 10 those few
words by that we'll known authoress
IS very fitting. At least, 1t seemed so
to me as we, at early dawn, journeyed
along southwark from Denver, past
Palmer Lake. through the foothills
of the Rockies and arrived at this city
of delightful climate inst as the sun
began to peep above the limitless
plains on the east, causing beams of
golden light to play among the ma

which, piercing the azure sky seemed
as If they would bring an end to any
further travel westward. .s.a'' b.. -
Colorado Springs, nesting almost
within the evening shadows OF Pixies
Peak, is made up Of the homes Of men
ofwealth and. Of promlnencesin state

city has population Of about $4,000

Surrounding Colorado Springs are
to be found inuumerable scenes Of
natural gran1r. No othsr area OF
like dimensions in any land affords as

what Was q Yeomans

The following quotation from Bishop
Latimer's First Sermon Preached Be
fore King Edward VI" March 8, 1540,
is good illustration of the meaning
of the word yeoman and shows the
primitive manners and customs Of
those times:
my father was yeoman and had
no lands of his own, only he had a
farm of e. or CA by year at the utter
most, and hereupon he titled SO much
as kept half dozen men. He had
walk for 100 sheep, and my mother
MIXED thirty kline. He was able and
did find the king harness, with him
self and his horse, while he came to
the place that he should receive the
kings wages. / can remember that !
buckled his harness when we went
unto Blackheath field. He kept me to
school or else | had not been able to
have preached before the kings mai
esty now. He married my sisters with
f5, or 20 mobiles apiece, SO that he
brought them up in godllness and fear
| of God. He kept hospitality for his
poor neighbors, and some aims he gave
to the poor. And all this he did OF the
said farm, where he that now hath 1t
payeth f16 by year or more and is not
able to do anything for his prince, for
himself nor for his children, or give a
cup of drink to the poor. Notes and
Queries.

Nature Study.

The first necessity in nature study is
to become acquainted with some local.
ity, say with farm. 1t does not mat
ter how small, how commonplace, how
near the city-the nearer the better,
provided there are trees, water, fences
and some seclusion. If your own cab
in can be in the middle of such spot,
that is ideal, for there is no make be-
lieve when you buy field or piece
Of woods and settle down there to stay.
Nature respects you. You have taken
her into your confidence. She will take
you into hers, and in the course of a
few seasons, if you will limit the size
of your garden, you will begin to dis
cover what a multitude of interesting
things come with the place that were
not mentioned in the deed. Owning a
farm, of course, is not necessary.
Sometimes l am quite convinced that
for pure and lasting joy in nature one
should not possess an acre. once you
have looked upon land of your own,
once you have trodden upon earth
that belongs to you, all your Sundays
will be spent looking and walking
there. The man in the Scriptures who
bought a field and lost his interest In
other pleasant things had real case
