LDWOOD CORNER IN OAK WOODS. SHOWING LAKE SHORE TREATMENT. 
LANDSCAPE EFFECT!! 
One of the handsomest of the fine illus- 
trated descriptive books issued by any of 
the modern cemeteries has just been pub- 
lished by Oak Woods Cemetery, Chicago. 
It is not only an art portfolio of beauti- 
ful landscape pictures, but contains much 
interesting information and descriptive data 
about the cemetery grounds, and intelli- 
gent, informative discussion of cemetery 
matters. 
Oak Woods is the nearest cemetery on 
the South Side, within the city limits, and 
by the terms of its charter is protected 
against any manner of encroachment from 
without or violation of its purposes with- 
in. The charter provisions are supple- 
mented by wisely drawn rules, which have 
stood the test of a generation of expe- 
rience in giving the best results in the 
development and maintenance of a metro- 
politan cemetery. 
In the management of Oak Woods every 
provision has been made for the comfort 
and convenience of its patrons, as indicated 
by its various departments, while the 
physical beauty of the grounds is the prod- 
uct of the best thought obtainable, to- 
gether with the expenditure of unlimited 
means and the development of years of 
time. 
Here may be found examples of stately
