A TEREDO-PRooF PILE.

As Sound After Nine Years as When
First Driven.
The board of harbor commission
of San Francisco believes that it
has at last found pile that will
withstand the ravages of the vo-
:,a.ei iee rs .soi1-cti1. All oidinary fir pie
driven in April, 1894, and the teredo-
proof pile driven in October, 1885,
were both taken up in April, 1895.
The common pile was so badly dam
aged by the inroads Of the teredo
after having been down but two
years that, when laid on the wharf,
it broke in two with it's own weight.
The teredo-proof pile, which had
been driven for nine years and six
months, was found to be nearly or
quite as sound as when it was first
driven. It's form of construction is
simple In the center is piece Of
timber six inches square, about
which are secured strips or boards
secured alternately at right angles
to each other until the proper thick
ness of diameter for the pile has
been reached. In building the pile
the center core is first smeared with
a preservative compound made of
either asphaltum coal tar or some
similar substance that prevents the
decay of wood. The strips are then
nailed on opposite sides of the core,
being first coated with the preserva-
tive compound. The outer surface
of the completed pile is protected by
an exterior coating or layer of the
preservative compound San Fran

PLANT MIMIORY.
Philippine Island Bean Seeds Re-
semble Beach Pebbles.

Philippine Island Bean Seeds Re-
semble Beach Pebbles.
An interesting case of mimicry in
plants is described in the Botanical
Gazette, that of the seeds of the
Philippine Island bean" from the
coast near Manila, which so closely
resemble the quartz pebbles among
which they fall, in shape, size, color,
luster, hardness and qualification,
as to be indistinguishable from them
except by very close examination.
The size and shape of the beans are
both very variable, ranging from
four to nine-tenths of an inch in
length; some perfectly resemble
well-rounded beach pebbles, while
Others mimic pebbles which have
been broken across. Their color
varies from moderately dark to light
drab, some giving faint greenish
tinge; others resemble pebbles of
chalcedony or Of crystallized quartz
Nearly all the specimens show a
series of approximately parallel
darker lines passing round, very
suggestive of qualification. All are
quite hard, cut only with difficulty
with knife, and give clinking
sound when shaken together in the
hand. They are not affected by
soaking in sea water.

his serene old age amid the evidences
of their grateful affection.
