Abstract
MR. E. R. LANKESTER, in his letter in NATURE on 21st July, does not mention what is certainly one of the most remarkable known instances of a decided colour in water, I mean the Blue Lake near the road from Frutigen to Kandersteg in Switzerland. It is very small, not a stone's throw across. I think it is fed by springs. Its blue tint is so decided as to give the idea of some colouring stuff mixed with the water—not that it can be really so.
