ALBANY WEEKLY HERALD: SATURDAY JULY 16, 189a.
A Queer Purlflr Co««t Lake.
One of the natural curiosities In
Klildtot oountyts Lone lake, which
lies in a butte oj* mound in the Sim
coo foothill* six tnilee northwest of
this city. ILe butte look* a* though
the top had caved in, a* the tree*
. axe lying dead all over the bottom
and year* ago, were growing whore
the lake now liek. This lake cannot
be seen until one reaches the summit
of the butte, aa it is circular in font)
and surrounded by a wall or bank of
earth which is covered with trees.
The bank itself is more than 100 feet
high.
The early settlers tell of cutting
bay on the ground which this body
of water now covers a good many
years ago. There is no doubt the wa
ter* are steadily rising. Tree* have
been oovOred, have fallen, and now
lie slowly decaying beneath the wn
ter*. It is fairly possible that tbe
lake will one day fill the entire car
ity in the butte and overflow the
banks. A few years ago the lake
was stocked with carp, and its wu
ter* are fairly alive with them now

During the Franco-German war.
when many Fronoh prisoners were
, at Raatatt, the Countess Zonpetin
WU "like a real mother to them."
, Every morning, says Chaplain Guars,
she came with cartloads of linen,
clothing, medicine and other stores,
and as she divided them among tbe
men she had a kind word for each.
One day, after distributing all she
had brought, she stopped before a
subaltern just deprived of a limb.
"Ah, my poor friend," said she
“there is nothing left for you. ”
"Madame," replied the soldier, “a
smile from you will content me.”
Here was French gallantry, crop

It begins! “Mr. Thompson presents hlr

to request that he will keep his doggs
from trespassing on his grounds,”
“Mr. Simpson presents his compli
ments to Mr. Thompson, and bogs to
suggest that In future he should not
Spell ‘dogs' with two geos."
"Mr., Thompson’s respects to Mr.
Simpson, nnd will foel obliged if ho will
add the letter ‘e’ to tho Inst word in the
note jnst received, so as to represent
Mr, Simpson and lady."
“Mr. Bimpson returns Mr. Thompson's

tains bring only equaled by its vulgar

You must have absolute confidence in
the source from which your table sup
plies come.
There is no reason why you should
not know exactly what you are buying
and there is just as little reason why
you should not be suited to perfection.
“Charity covers a multitude of sins”
and so do some grocery bills.
There is such a thing as paying for
the best of everything and not getting
the best of anything. We believe that
principle should come before profit
and we carry that theory into practice.
Do you' happen to want anything in
line of Fanoy and Family Groceries.
We carry a full and complete assort
ment of all varieties of Canned Goods,
Coffee and Teas of the best, Fostelle’s
Elegant Flout, Pure Spices, and Ex
