One of the most curious of the many
remarkable forms of marine life is a
species of mollusk called tie razor-shell,
which can eXcavate holes in solid
rocks. This creature has no English
name; it's Latin name is pholas. 1t is
found in widely separated regions O:
the earth, but is most plentiful on the
coast of the Mediterranean, where
limestone abounds. 1t is frequently
met with on the coast of Italy, where
whole limestone beaches are honey
combed with it's holes. 1t is still dis
puted point among naturalists as to
how this boring is effected. Some
think that the mollusk secretes some
acid which solftens the limestone, but
others think that the holes are bored by
the simple mechanical process of grind
ing. The preponderance of opinion ap.
pears to lie with the latter view al
present, yet it is said that no one hal
yet been able to catch the holas al
work.-St. Louis Republic.
