''The summer girl is too villain

The speaker was Mayor Bacharach
of Atlantic City. With smile he
continued:
"The summer girl, as a matter of
fact, is as reserved and cultured as
the winter girl. Why, then, these
silly yarns about herp
"Only the other day an Atlantic
avenue book seller told me with a
chuckle that summer girl had come
into his shop to buy Virgil's Acne
i'd He asked her what on earth she
wanted with such a heavy book as
that She answered that it began
with the words, ARMS and the man.
and so she thought it ought to be
awfully thrilling"

CATERPILLAR CRUSADE IN CAN.
ADA.

Archbishop Bruchesi will enlist
the members of the Catholic church
of the province in crusade against
the tent caterpillar. Owing to the
prevalence ct wet weather this year
there are on unusually large number
of these pests in the fruit trees
throughout the province.
The archbishop is greatly interest
ed IN fruit culture, and when his at
tention was drawn to the presence of
the caterpillars he issued instruc-
tons to the clergy to have their par
ishioners take immediate steps to de-
stroy nests. Attention to the matter
now will mean the saving of the
fruit crop.-Montreal Correspon-

Man Has Never Been Able to Learn
All the Reasons for the Currents
Of the Ocean.

The townsman whose acquaint-
ance with the silvery sea is usually
confined to that made during his
summer holidays finds the question
of the tides most puzzling. He knows
that the tides rise and fall twice in
twenty-four hours, and that they are
affected by the moon, and there his
knowledge ends.
AS a matter Of face, tides vary
considerably. Round about our own
coasts are-t to be found some of the
most terrible and dangerous tidal
races and currents In the world; they
are due to the presence Of 30 much
narrow, broken land.
Out In the open ocean the speed of
the waves is amazing, but nearer
land tides travel far more slowly.
Down south the attraction of the
moon raises an enormous wave that
courses round the world from Cape
Horn to the Cape Of Good Hope, un-
broken by intervening land.
Of the west coast of Scotland
there is whirlpool known as the
"Caldron Of the Spotted Seas"
where the tide races at the speed Of
a mountain torrent. On the River
Amazon, again, the tide forms
moving wall Of water thirty feet
high, and reaching from bank to
bank as 1t PUSHES inland from the
ocean.

wIFE's MONEY PAID ALlMoNY
Californian Is Ordered by Court to
Rsstorv $4,000 Taken From
Estste Of Mothsr-In-Law.

San Francisco, Cal.-George +.
Gray, the quarry man, must pay
$1,000 into the estate Of his deceased
motherin-law, Mrs. Mile II. Webster.
by ruling OF Judge Thomas r. Ora
ham Of the superior court this morn
ing.
This amount represents sums ad-
vanced by.Gray for the support OF his
divorced wife and his children while
he was acting as executor Of the es-
tate of Mrs. Webster. BY the same
ruling Judge Graham denied a motion
to discharge Gray as executor OF the
Webster estate.
Gray was divorced by Mrs. NJ. r.
Gray in 1906 and ordered to. pay $3.50
alimony. The payments were made
regularly until the fire, when the
stone man appeared in court, saying
that he was unable to continue paying
the $3.50 and asking that the amount
be reduced. This petition was grant
ed.
Then, by an agreement said to have
been entered into with the attorneys
of his wife and his children. he made
monthly advances to his wife out Of
the estate Of his mother-in-law. These
advances have been made regularly
since 1906. Now Mrs. Gray has es-
tablished the fact that her husband,
instead of paying her alimony, has
merely been advancing money which
was due from the estate OF her moth
er.
The motion TO have Gray discharged
as executor OF the estate of his
mother-in-aw was made by Mrs. Gray
on behalf Of herself and her children,
Henry w. Gray and Mrs. Mildred f.
Wimberly.
