AN ARTISTIC SOUVENIR.

MT and Mrs Warren H. Lamson are re- membering their friends with an attrac. tive and artistic folder which conveys the compliments of the season and a brief sketch of the members of this well known firm of home builders. The first page bears speaking likenesses in half tone of Mir and Mrs Lamsop, the second and third pages are devoted to the sketch and the last page shows photographs of two new and handsome Lamson dwell lings recently erected on Myrtle avenue. It is doubtful if the distribution of these beautiful souvenirs will spread more widely than is now known the fame and reputation of these successful architects and builders, but they will accomplish one mission, to give public recognition of Mrs Lamson's share in work that has done much to beautify the city and to provide comfortable homes for people of moderate means.-[The Daily Union.
 Note One of these souvenirs will be mailed to every reader of THE BEE whose address and the word souvenir is written on postal card and sent to W. H. Lamsop, 765 North avenue, Bridge port.

FAIRFIELD.
AT ST PAUL s.

The rector said morning prayer, last Sunday as usual and read the pastoral letter from the House of Bishops. It is considered perhaps the most weighty ut terance which has ever been made to the clergy and laity of the church by their right reverend Father in God. ID one sense it is an honor to the American church, and vindication of her posltion among the churches, and societies of christendom. This strong, learned and and thoroughly apostolical pastoral is unaccompanied by illumination or anathema. Both inside the church and outside the church the pastoral of 1894 will clear the air ard sharpen the outlines of the church's position and her
 belief.
 About 100 new books have been added
 to the library of St Paul's Sunday school,
 A number of the old books have beer
