SILK From the sea.

The sea yields many precious things coral,
amber and pearls but it is not generally
known that In certain parts OF the Mediter-
ranean species OF mussel Is found Of which
the shells contain one Of the most beautiful
textile materials known. These shells are
about seven inches long and three inches
broad, and each OF them contains a hank or
byssus of the fibre, Weighing half a drachn,
and at first it presents nothing particular to
the eye, being soiled with the mud and re-
mains OF marine plants, But when washed
and combed the fibres are seen to be extremely
lustrous, glistening In the sunshine In shades
varying from golden yellow to olive brown.
Spun and woven In the ordinary manner,
stockings, gloves, neckties and similar articles
can be manufactured from Them and they are
likewise specially suited Tor making the finest
lace. At present the production OF these
flores hardly exceeds 200 kilogrammes g cwt.

mussels and their finished products were ey-

they appear to have been overlooked.

Some kafir customs and rules Of etiquette
are perpexng- such, for instance, as the one
which forbids, under the penalty Of absolute
social ostracsm, q kaffir lady to pronounce
the name of her husband, or otherwise ndi-
cate him, save BY some such figure as the sun,
or the star, or other similar metaphor. And
though In the new-made bride a few such
slips are, by common consent, forgiven, for
man to commit such a hideous breach of de-
corum as TO breathe the name Of his mother
