Tbl* beautiful little town, she bright, •at point In New York south of Tren- j ton.

In among the tree* on the bank* of tbe Delaware are ne*tled the attractive borne* of the There are beautiful grassy lawn* and flower garden*, apple and pear or chards surrounding them. All the people seem to love flowers, those "smiles of Ood’s goodness,” and the numerous gardens filled with endless varieties are one of tbe most notice able features.

Burlington, the oldest town In New Jersey. Is only two and one-half miles distant. Burlington county, of which It Is the county seat, Is the richest county in agriculture In Ihe United States. The soil has been brought to such a high state of cultivation that It commands a price ranging from live hundred to one thousand dollars per acre. Somp of the towns are built so close ly together you can scarcely tel! where one ends or another begins. The next town to Edgewater Park Is Bennly. which was formerly known as Dunce’s Ferry, and the greatest sturgeon fish ery In the worldi The largest national cemetery in New Jersey is near Bever ly, and also the largest soldier’s mon ument. There are row-boats, sailboats, steamboats and private yaehts on the Delaware, and I suppose almost every one knows how famous the river is for Its shad. Nearby Is the old home of Rev. T. DeWltt Talmage and through the farm passes the road over which Washing ton and bis men marched previous to the battle of Trenton.
