No. 2787 Equity. In the Circuit Court
for Garrett County.
The object of this suit is to procure
a decree vinculo matrimonii, divorce
ing the plaintiff from the defendant.
The Bill states that the plaintiff was
married to the defendant in Allegany
County, Maryland, and that they re-
sided together as man and wife, in
Garrett County, Maryland, until the
27th day of December, 1923.
The Bill further states that the con-
duct of the plaintiff toward the defen-
dant has been kind, affectionate and
above reproach, and that the said de-
PENDANT, without just cause or reason,
abandoned and deserted the plaintiff,
and that such abandonment has con-
tinued uninterruptedly for at least
three years, and that the separation of
the parties is beyond any reasonable
expectation of reconciliation.
That while said defendant has trav-
elled about from place to place since
such abandonment, the plaintiff is in
formed, ard believes that at this time
she is llNI. anu IeSlulllS III tllc SIdIS
of PennsJ lvania.
That no children were born to the
said plaintiff and defendant as a re-
suit of said marriage.
The Bill then prays for divorce
vinculo matrimonii, and for such other
and further relief as the nature of his
case may require, and also for the or
der of publication.
1t is thereupon, this 29th day of
October, 1927, ordered by the Circuit
Court of Garrett County, in Equity,
that the plaintiff, by causing copy
of this order to be inserted in some
newspaper published in said county,
once in each of four successive weeks
before the 10th day of December,
1927, give notice to the said absent de-
PENDANT of the object and substance
of this Bill, warming her to appear in
this Court in person or by Solicitor on
or before the 26th day of December,
next, to show cause, if any she had,
why a decree ought not to be passed
as prayed.
And it is further ordered that in
lieu of such publication a copy of this
order may be served personally upon
the said defendant, Tabitha Runners,
on or before the 18th day of Novem-
Der, 1927, in accordance with Section
142 of Article 16 of the Code of Pub
lie General Laws of the State of Mar

EXTRA WRONG FONTS
By Scoop.
Instead of a Letter,

A gentleman in Nebraska or some
place sends fifteen subscriptions of
his home paper to fifteen of his close
friends and relatives, and says it is
cheaper than writing letters and be-
sides no time is required and more
news is conveyed than ,his letters
would contain.
That isn't a bad idea according to
Scoops way of thinking. This sheet
carries all the news of the county

according to recent news item, caus-

plenty tough" the man told his dinner
companion. "Why don't you pick it
up and eat it like sandwich? ?" was
the suggestion of his companion. The
man acted on the suggestion and with
the first bite choked. He died on the
way to hospital. The question is
whether the mans family could sue
the hotel or restaurant keeper for
serving piece of steak so tough that
it caused choking. A decision in favor
of the family in this case would GER
tainly eliminate a lot of trouble at

THE STARRY SKIES IN JUNE


Lexell's comet. which in 1910 was
1,400, 900 miles away. The comet is
nearest on June 81. but distance is
but little greater for a couple of days
before or after.
Although there is much of inter-
est about the comet, it is unfortu-
nate that we must record that it is
not expected to become bright enough
to be seen with the naked eye. When
brightest, from June 26 to June 28.
it will be Of magnitude 6.5, which is
just below the limit of naked-eye
vision. but within the reach of opera
glasses. Its path during most of the
month is shown on Figure /. The
numbers indicate the day of the month
when it is in the position marked,
and it moves more rapidly as the
month progresses. When near the
earth at the end of the month it moves
very rapidly. After June 26 it moves
very rapidly southward and will soon
be lost to view. OF course, it is best
to wait until the comet isNhigh in the
sky before looking for it. A comet
appears as a small, cloudy spot and
not at all like q star in most cases.
AS may be seen, it is just north of
the bright star Vega at A in Lyra
June 22 and near "Jobs Coffin" in
Delphinus at B, June 26. At the first
of the month it is of magnitude 10
and telescope of considerable power
is necessary to see it. 1t reaches the
eighth magnitude June IS. 1t may be
that the comet will bring us some
meteors at the close of the month";
The earliest observation of the comet
was made on February 25.
A comet discovered by DR.. Stearns
of Van Week Observatory, Middle
town, Conn, March 10. is too faint
to be of interest to the layman. 1t
may be noted, however, that on June
it is very close, indeed. to the bright
star Arcturus, at c, Figure /. The
comet is then Of the tenth magnitude.
