Beautiful weather is vet a characteristic
of the time And with the present phan-
tas1nagoria presented by the dying vege-
taton, the season is rendered doubly at
trsctive Not in town alone, but more
particularly in the wood and along the
margin of the lake and water courses, is
the scenery attractive. To get the invig-
Grating oxygen of the air to permeate
ones lungs and enjoy the beautiful scene
from nature, one should rise early and
walk into the suburbs. Cross Lavinia
causeway just after the sun has risen and
is casting his sheen in long drawn out
rays over the lower and upper lakes; and
here you have a view both toward and
from the sun. Toward it your ewes are
dazzled by the resplendent rays that COW
er the whole ofthe lower lake with gold
en sheen; while from it the trees and
shrubbery are silhOuetted in the waters
of the upper lake, and make a scene fitted
to adorn the canvas of any painter But
1t is useless to talk to some of our people
about the beauty of the early morning
1t may be all beautiful but the bed is
more attractive to them. Well, we will
let them have their way Some take
their bliss in action, somein ease. Those
find it pleasure and contentment these. -
The trees have now begun to shed their
leaves, which have become yellow with |

season have begun to hustle with their
work They put it off until now, and
they see it must now be done
