Once be was brought home or a po
liceman and once 1 bad to go to the
station for him.
Tommy's father died when be una
seven. and my hoy said "Mommy,
you'll bare me ?with you aiways. won't
you And I said : "I wish I might.
Tommy, but you'll prow up to be a
man and bare a wife and children of
your own. Oh. dearie me. I wish yon
cou'd always remain a little boy:" Hut
Tom said he hated girls and would
never bare anything to do with any
of them; he would always stick to bis
dear old mum.
But nature requires that boys and
girls should break away from their
parents and become parents them
w'w Tom stuck to me as long as he
could, but be was a manly boy and
grew into a manly man tie could
nerer content h'mself In tbe little
town where we lived, and when he
came to t>e eighteen years old 1 saw
that be was chafing to get a war. He
wouldn't leare me for a long while,
but finally consented to do so for a few
months. I bid him go ard not come
back so long as it was to his Interest to
stay away
Tom went, bat be didn't come back
He wrote to me from different places,
though, telling me what be was doing
He made one voyage on a liner as dock
steward, hut be didn't like the son flud
gave it up. Then he served one enlist
ment term in the army and was sent
to the Philippines \\ Mie he u :is thore
I was obliged to niove to ntlothor town
I left my new addrvss with the post
master, but 1 new m:in to>k hi* place
soon after that, and t*?e addriss must
bare t*>en lost. At ?.u* rate. I didn't
get any more letters 'r -n my Tommy .
Two year* passed. ,.nd I was get
ting older erery day i lived by my
self and had no on? o comfort me
I didn't tnsw wh.-tb-" my boy was
aiire or doad. If I could know that
be !ired and 1 could gf-t a letter from
even but once a rear*it would
m.ike a very different vron^in of me
1 went back on?"e t.> wNre Totnnit
and I had l!vt<d togethe* and where I
had brought him up I wanted to learn
if be bad t-evu there looking for me
1 fonrd that he had. A n tun her of tho
neu-hl'ors f..id me that be had L?ked
them "here I was I had told oi.ly
ore or two where I was going, but it
was so lous ago that they bad forg >t
ten llevrdes. | had proved acal.i tr\o
or thr?-e times. ITi.-y told me that Tom
was awfully disappointed not to find
me Af:er asking e?"wybody and got
tine no information that would enablo
him to find tne he went awav but di.'

That was the creat disappointment
*of my life To think tVsr he'd b?vn
tryi:.g to find his old mammy hn<:
couldn't: And now that he'd pone
scain Ir.-o ibe great world there was
far less nof>e of his ever finding me or
