To my mind Soptombor nnd October nro tho most delightful months of tho yoar nt tho ocean.

Llko a Department Store. It would bo highly unpootlcnl to describe tho ocean as a great dish pan and tho western horizon as a de partment store nut ns tho winds play up gontly from tho Bouthwcst, tho nlr at evening Ih soft nnd bnlmy, there Is n hazo over tho sea and tho forests, tho Const rango mountains are lost In tho dlBtanco, and tho sky U a great department ntoro of colors, whoro the most delicate tinted fab rics of aerial toxturo aro hung out for display, and the assortment Ib constantly varying. Tho ami changes from yel'ow gold to doopest, darkost crimson aB It nonrs the Jumplng-oft placo, nnd you can Imagine n ballet of angels In pink tights nud gossa mer wings singing n hallelujah chor us In tho dull rod glow, whoro it plunges out of Bight, as though tho myriad-color children of the great mother of lights hatod to let her go out of their sight, nnd still moro hatod to lot go thoiuselvos. Tho Hrnutltvs of tho Afterglow, Darkness Mettles nbout you on tho solids, tho waters lap and murmur with a saddor music, tho oarth Is sub merged In unheard minor strains, but overhead all Is Joyous color. Tho sky Is nzuro purple, changing In to heliotrope nnd lavondor to tho north. To tho wot It Is lighted with pnlo saffron and smoky topaz tints, ending In a grand salmon-pink au rora where the sun wont down. It Is an hour after that ovont, and still tho wost is nn atmospheric sea of colors. Thero Is a groat arch ovor the western sky, of rich and yet dell- j oiuo wiu coior. roaouing inr towaru Alaska and deopenlng toward tho north. A headland shoots out be tween mo and tho ocean to tho north west, nud behind this rises the solid wall of gorgeous color work, tho hills outline with a sharp Bkylluo of dark green, Jagged tops of the firs and spruces. The harbor beacons nro burning, launches with colored lights aro flitting back and forth across the boy to bring belated travelers from tho south beach, whllo tho lighthouse on Capo Foulweathor Is sending: It atcady Bllvory j-ayB far aoVoss tho ocean to chcor tho wnve-toBBcd mar iners.

Thoro Is n peculiar charm about a driftwood flro on tho bench, aB each pleco of fuel cast up by tho waves could toll n tale of travel, and has n history tinged with ndventuro. Horo In n bit of clrculnr board, that was doubtless part of tho pilot's wheel on Bomo Ill-fated craft. Human hands hnvo sent It spinning on Its way, directing a cargo of precious freight bound for tho ports of com merce, nnd perhaps wrecked on Bomo wild and InhoBpltnblo shore, not oven grnced with a spneo In the nowspaporB. In tho henps of drift wood, half burled in tho sands, aro Bomo old bcor kegs, thnt I am add ing ono by ono to mnko a bonflro for mysolf nnd tho dog In this dry coun ty of Lincoln, whonco It Is hoped tho soul of tho mnn it 1b named after has not so completely fled no tho spirit of John Barleycorn has left thoso iron-bound, onkon shells that aro crackling to keep us warm. Tho dog Is looking noxiously toward tho vil lage, whoro tho family hns gone for new supplies of grub, nnd I am gaz ing Borrowfully Into tho nnclont re coptaclos, crumbling into coals and nshes, trying to recall the morry hcoiios onnctod by tho old-tlmors who will recall tho memories of tho old browory on Ynqulnn bny. Undor tho now rcglmo John Barleycorn holds his sway as bottled goods shipped in from Salem, which have displaced tho homo product. Cactus on the Beach. My rovorloB on tho bench aro Inter rupted by n Portland maiden lady of GO odd Biimmors who has wandered down to our cnmptlre, and I hnvo porsundod hor to boar me nnd tho dog company. This cactus on tho wnsto of single bleesodnoss hns a natural acerbity and tnrtnoss of tem per that reminds me of tho wild crab apple that grow back East when I was 41 boy. They were not bad eat ing when they had survived n few sharp frosts, but from the way this lady roasts pooplo right and left, no unkindly frosts of matrimony or bo clal ambitions disappointed have mellowed her tomperauieut, nnd she has accumulated roal eetate whllo she has retained her virtues nnd hor tomper, nnd she soenis to be unwil ling to pnrt with either until tho right man comes along. I will bet n oooklo that, wlih all her ctrcumspeo-j tlon. If ovor she does nurry It will be to some man who will squander her patrimony, nnd turn her out of i doors whon it is gono, bu t sho will bo wolcomo to a sent on the log by tho driftwood fire. Hor tnlf3 nro all of financial troubles with her agont. Heart troubles she has never had sho Is too ropollaut, and by nature too much like the prickly poar of tho dosert. The latter is moro charming, for nt certain seasons it has beau tiful blossoms. In ono respect this aged maiden bears out Stevoason'a reclpo for a woman to bo a good con versationalist Bho must bo "well sunned, ripened, and, perhaps a llt tlo toughened." As to tho latter, 1 do not know. My folks have re turned. My dog has been growing too familiar, as it did not tako him long to discover that sho haB a dog of hor own, a whlto spitz poodle, that, by somo strnngo mlschnnco, does not accompany hor this evon ing. Wicnl of tho Pacific. Thero Is something wlord nbout thus sitting by a flro of driftwood on tho Bhores of tho Pacific a great ocean whoso waters aro frnught with unknown destinies to our country. Shall expnnsion Into Its unknown depths bring us wnr or peaco, weal or woo? Havo wo, too, reached tho limit of our untional growth, and shall wo go down as havo tho em pires of old, nnd drop llko a rlponed fruit into tho oblivion that awaltB outlived usefulness? Shall got-rlch- qulck corporations nnd tho four hun dred swamp our national spirit with tho corrosion of Idleness, and shall our ship of state hnvo her hull coated with barnacles until sho drags a help less hulk through tho seas of dishon est dollars and wo bo overrun HkJ Imperial but degonerato Rome by tho Huns nnd Vandals of tho Orient, tho Mnlays and Tartars of Japan and China? The. old man with tho scytho alono can toll, and tho question Is too sorious for seasldo cogitation. T leavo It to Toddy and tho telegraph editor.
