OF ali the beautiful, beWitching
spots with which the face Of our
broad blessed earth, there Is none TO
bear comparison with this. or
all scenery in Natures domain,
there is none which goes so deep
ly to the heart ofman, none which
one so fully enjoys and appre.
eiates as that of 3 cozy, crystal
lake, with cunning little islands
coyly distributed throughout its
surface, all snugly nestled away
| in the shadow Of mountains which
look over and watch over it so
carefully and tenderly, and just
such q place is
LAKE GEORGE.
Lake of Como, in Italy, is per-
haps the most celebrated lake in
the world, and by many thought
to be the most beautiful, but
Bulwer's work Of the Lady of
Lyons have made the fame of it
what it is, and old travellers who
have roamed the wide world over
time and again, say that for real
beauty and attractiveness Lake
George is without q rival.
Through the whole course
of the lake the scenery
is continually changing; the
islands and towering mountains
on all hands giving a continually
varied feature to the scene, and
the water Of the lake is so clear
and transparent that you can see
to the depth Of thirty feet at al
most any place. Nowhere does
music sound so sweetly as here,
when it floats away on the surface
of the clear blue waters to find
resting place as it were, in the
bosom ofthe dreamy, sleepy noun
tains which encircle the lake OF
every hand, and it Is one of the
chief pastimes here to get VI
moonlight excursions and, pad
, ding about among the little Is
lands and under the brow Of tn
towering mountains, to wake tn
, echoes and lull Nature TO sleep, al
) it were, with song and melody
PLEASURE TRAVEL
is increasing here every season
: and the influx Of the present yea
!, has known no equal. The com
} pany represents the wealth, beaut
q and fashion from all over th
world, both North and South
= East and West, and q vast con
4 course of people being thu
= brought together you will at ono
;, see that the times must be lively
Being In q quiet sort of a place
, we don't get anything new in th
( sensational line every day, but las
1 week we had
/. LITTLF EPISODE,
which is worth repeating. Well,
: came to pass, about q week ag,
~ that q young couple, about tw
weeks in the bonds of wedlock, an
now on a honey moon excursio
ie took rooms at the Fort Villa
+ Henry Hotel, as so many of H.
mems annointed have done befoI
them. After they had been in the
" room about an hour, and havir
,e had their trunks taken up, we
le unpacking them when their atte
ton was arrested by a sound ST.
kingly human and strangely infa
- - tile, following the source when
+ the music now proceeded, in bou
Is teous tones they opened the low
IT beaureau drawer and there found
ns q baby, chubby, fat, rosy, and
;. boy, weighing full twenty pount
80 nicely encased in blankets, a
opening its two little eyes a
as toothless mouth very wide, at v
rs king up in 80 strange situate
he or course Mrs. -, newly mi

- teresting' little waiffrom its pris
Ill box, and kindly took the best
~ care Of It, and, though q little eal
of for such business, had, at last
counts, consented to "father"
)" strange Emusic box"
END OF FART FIRST.
- The last occupants Of the roo
- before them were two very stea
'e' young men, who never dra
Nv champaign, and never stayed {
late o'nights; Of course it col
not be theirs. Now it's impos
cy BILE to recOlleCt who brings
of baby with them, since nj
ay couple out Of every ten who ha
80 been in the matrimonial businC
q twelve month are supposed to
p possessed of at least one little |
he mentionable, and as for that m
of Eter a good many babies might
left behind, and never be miss
