August is rapidly approaching its end,
and yet the lake has its multitude OF.
visitors, and many are arriving every
week to remain the balance of the sea-
son. There is little complaint from the
hotels that they have not done as we'll
as in some years, but this one will COM.
pare favorably with most of them. A
great many of the people who come here
get cottages if they can, as they seem
to prefer to keep house to board. There
has not been much going on during the
past week. The regular Tuesday even

attendance as ever. On Friday evening
the 6remen's ball and the benefit hop
for Miss ii. Marie Jenkins at the Leip
were largely attended, as was also the
band concert on Saturday evening.

Ihe red red moon cast a Shimmering sheen
Far out on the placid water,
And the sparkling wavelets waved in time
To the song of the boatman's daughter.
This airy maid sang a song of joy
! AS her boat sped ont on the lake,
While the waters gurgled and laughed in
4. glee
AS they danced in the white boats wake.
Away she sailed, far far from the land,
: Perhaps three miles or four,
When her sweet, sweet face it quiyered and
blanched
AS she hungrily gazed at the shore.
DO fear of the storm sent the chill to her
heart
Not a maid more brave could you find:
But there on rock, by tine side of the dock,
Was her chewing gum left behind.
