Double Ebb and Flow Tide.

1t IL a rare thing that an interesting
happening entirely escapes the eye of
the press. but last week such an event
was unrecorded. London River, the
river of the empire. enjoyed . double
ebb and flow Of its tide and no one
said a word about 1t, says the Man
chester Guardian. Such a manifesto
ton 10 certainly a curious one and not
always explainable. But before the
Thames was embarked its vagaries in
the seventeenth and eighteenth CEN
turtles were pretty frequent. for IN
1858 1t ebbed and flowed twice in three
hours. and in 1863 three times in four
hours-a sergeant majors allowance
which has never been surpassed. And
some old chronicler has left an &C
count of the quite unprecedented
freakishness of London River one
Winter day In 1871. "a wonder" he
confesses, that, all things considered.

"LADY OF THE BEADS"
HAS FAMOUS COLLECTION
Fantastic Stories Woven About
Strings Held by Mrs. L.
Bracket Bishop.
By the Associated Press.


ATLANTIC CITY. July 1.-Strange
and fantastic stories are woven about
the strings Of beads collected from
distant lands by Mrs. L. Bracket
Bishop. known as The Lady of the
Beads"
Coming here as delegate from a
Florida club to attend the conven-
ton of the General Federation OF
Women's Clubs, Mrs. Bishop dis
played some Of the treasures of her
collection. She will soon renew the
search that has been a lifelong fas-
cination-for beads bartered off the
necks of their wearers, rich in the
stories of alien lands and customs.
"All the strings have stories" said
Mrs. Bishop.
white and blue beads was bought
off the neck of a native African girl.
They were sent her by her lover and
the amending chain that constitutes
the pattern is the African symbol of
amending love.
The one of smoothly woven mon
keys teeth is the work of a very
high type of South American Indian.
The unevenly threaded string of the
same sort of teeth comes from a
lower tribesman.
The garnets were the pride of a
Czechoslovakian household. The tur-
quoise. surrounding the ancient ikon,
were from an aristocratic Russian
family.
The Persian beads. bound with the
blue tassel. bestow safety on their
wearer, for blue guards against
falsehood or deceit, which Allah can
not bear"
Colors speak a language of their
the water; red, the color of fire, Is
for love, white, color Of sunlight, is
wisdom.
