 co Canaan Lodge of Odd Fellows Had Special
 Services,
Christ Church Thronged
 on Sunday Night.
Triple Linkers Attend in a Body and Hear an Able Discourse
 by Rev p. J. Smyth.

Sunday night was one of memory for Canaan Odd Fellows. It was the night when they paid the tribute of respect to those brothers of the order, who, having lived i'll Friendship. Love and Truth, were called by the Sovereign Grand to the highest encampment of Patriarchs militant.
 Their work ended here, clad in the royal purple, they passed to that final degree conferred only by Him who reads the heart and rightly interprets the secret thoughts of man.
 So on this night of hallowed, sacred memories, Canaan lodge assembled as a Lodge of Sorrow. Not because of mem bers passed from it's own immediate ranks for of such there are none. but through respect for those of it's brothers of the order throughout the great wide world, it gathered and marched i'll 8 body to Christ church, where Memorial services were held. Rev. J. P. Smyth preached the sermon.

"These great words of the great Apostle St. Paul most thoroughly meet a great need of the human soul. AS we direct the glance backward upon this or any other commemorative occasion and view the lives and deeds of persons whom we have loved and who have pre- ceeded us into the realms of light, we refuse to believe that the beauty of character manifested by them has be- come non-existant. It cannot be that love and devotion, loyal friendship, steady faithfulness to truth, have come to an end with the physical dissolution of the persons who have exemplifisd them In any such retrospect, our hearts affirm the' great saying of the great Apostle, "For this corruptible must put on interruption, and this mortal must put on immortality" Whatever is here wrought out in union with Christ will continue, and will receive it's crowning perfection, in the amending Beyond.
 Eternal Reyerberations

SUMMER AT THE LAKE, Influx of Cottagers Continues on
 the Increase. Some of the Latest Arrivals and the Incidents of the Week, With a Glance at The Future -.. Possibilities.

Stockholm Cottage, Twin Lakes, June 21-Never have the lakes looked more beautiful than they do to-day. Not a cloud mars the heavens. The sunlight gleams upon the waters of Washanee, in dancing shimmering sheen, reaching far across from the west shore, a dazzling ripple, flashing in si1very radiance, a broad path of light.
 Far away in distance, looms the Ia comic mountain range sharply silhuetted against the western sky, their rugged summits defined by a strong line of de- marcation. Bear mountain, the highest point of land in the nutmeg state. shows like grim sentinel, keeping watch and ward.
 A Picture of Beauty
 AS far to the west as the eye can see, green verdured hills and wide stretches of open land mark the spots, where, hid den from view, nestle country hamlets and scattered farm houses, and just be- fore the shores of the lakes are reached, woodlands again enclose the scene, al most to the waters edge.
 Such is the view get at the close of this summers day between the hanging branches of hemlock, pine and white birch trees, growing up from the waters edge to the broad yeranda, which stretches the entire length of restful Stockholm by the lakeside. The glimpses one here gets through the intervening boughs, I do not believe can be excellsd by any place along the lake shore. Light and shadow comingle in just the right proportion to bring out the picture in all it's beauty contrasts.
 As It Might Have Been
 Sitting here at ease and looking over the beautiful lake at the base of the hill side, one's fancy peoples these waters and grounds with the tribal race from

 Moonlight on the Lake
 Day has gone and the shadows of twilight close down. By and by the moon, riding high in the heavens, sends across the quiet waters its silvery beams, flooding the night with the beauty of its witchery, and added it's charm to this realm of the ideal. Now the lake takes upon itself new beauty; beauty that must be seen to be appreciated. It has all the quite grandeur of a tranquil sum- mer's night, with nature ill repose and 8 subdued peace settling upon scene which thrills the heart and stirs the soul.
