To Lovers Of Sca-Rathing.

The lovers OF sea-bathing viii learn with much
interest the result OF series OF observations on
the temperature OF the sea which were CON-
pieted some time since by the Scottish Meteoro-
logical Society. The observations were made
every day during period OF four years and nine
months, and the result was to confirm the
impression that the changes OF atmos-
pher1c temperature influence the sea but
slowly. The variations 10 the warmth of
the sea water occur within q range one
third less than that Of the air: and the
mean temperature OF the sea is found to be
warmer than that OF the atmosphere In seven
months out OF the twelve. The summer warmth
penetrates the sea very gradually, and is more
gradually given on. January is the coolest
month, but the sea water Is coolest In March;
July Is the hottest month. but the sea water
atta1ns Its maximum warmth toward the end OF
August. From that time the sea becomes
warmer than the air, and coois so much slower
IMAM the weather that In November the average
Warmtn OF the water Is six degrees, and In
November seven degrees. higher than that OF
the atmosphere. The balance Is reached at the
emo OF March, and then for the next i've months
the air is warmer than the water.
TheSe figures, which result from Careful op-
Servat1onS made at Peterhead, justify the Gus
tom Of extending sea bathing late into the
autumn. Sea bathing should. IN fact, begin
late and may safely end late. 1t Is more dan.
Rerous In the warm days OF early summer than
In the chilly days even OF the late autumn. The
sea Is as warm at the end Of october as it Is In
the second week Of June. and the period be-
tween these two dates Is the healthy bathing
season for those who are strong enough to be-
gin early and leave OF late.-LOadoa Ne,cs.

Editor Stdr:-I see In THE STAR OF June 18th

winch 1t Is stated that the lamented ex-senator
ana MS son, the present able Senator, being In
tne senate at the same time was the only occur
renee Of the kind In this country. / think there
Is little mistake In that. It Is the Only occur
renee OF father and son being Senators from the
same state atthe same time, but not of father
and son being Senators at the same time. Some
thing over quarter Of century ago have
olten seen In the Senate Hon. Henry Dodge,
senator from Wisconsin, and Augustus c.

grand lady In the fairest century OF medieval
dress. l say nothing about the form Of the
costume, that is governed by fashion; but the
material was trreproachable. The dress was
pure white from top to toe, and consisted of a
rich White velvet pattern applied upon white
satin, shaped somewhat like long coat with
just few Inches OF white dress shown beneath
It; the headcoverlng was also white, round
which ran one violet streak that with c0nSum-
mate art relieved the monotony OF 50 bridal an

the prize OF taste to an ivory white satin, over
which hung berthe OF white bugies ana "a, an .
harmony OF the ivory satin with the heavy
sheen OF these bugles was admirable enough,

derance OF black beads and jet.
