PEARLS AND PEARL SHELLS.
Treasures That Arc Taken from the
Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf.

Treasures That Arc Taken from the
Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf.
Pearl shells arc valuable, and fine
specimens are hard to obtain. They
are found in the TreamOtee. Gambler
and Trihual groups of islands. The
choicest come from Macassar; these
are the white-edged shells, worth $500
a ton, and from these the finest pearl
buttons are manufactured.
The most celebrated pearl fisheries
lie near the coast of Ceylon, the Persian
gulf, and in the waters of Java and
Sumatra. The Australian coast in the
neighborhood of Shanks bay and at
RoebuclI bay furnishes some very large
shells, some of them weighing from
two or three pounds each. The fisheries
of Baja, Gulf Of California, are very
rich, France controlling the gems pro-
cured there. The meat of the pearl
oyster is readily bought by the China
men. who dry the leathery little BIZ
valves or seal them up in cans and
ship them to their countrymen in San
Francisco. The pearl shells readily
sell upon the spot at from S1.5O TO five
dollars per pound.
Pearls and tears have for ages been
associated, and the magic virtues of the
pearl were held in high esteem in early
times. as they are to-day with the East
Indians.
1t is said that Queen Margaret Tudor,
consort of James ". of Scotland. pre-
vious TO the battle of Flodden Field,
had many presentiments of the disas-
trous issue of that conflict, owing TO a
dream she had three nights in success
sion that jewels and sparkling coro-
nets were suddenly turned into pearls
which the superstitious believed were
a sign OF coming widowhood and OF
tears.
Pearls are of various colors. and in
India the red pearls were highly priced
by the Buddhists. who used them in
adoIning their temples. Pearls are
formed to protect the shellfish. They
are due to a secretion of shelly sub
stance around some irritating particle,
and their cohiposition is the same as
that of mother-of-pearl.-capt. il. ID.
Smith, in ST. Nicholas.

Nine persons out of ten, il asked TO
give what they consider the cause Of
wrinkles, would probably reply that IL
is worry and care. This, however, is
by no means always the case, for, as a
matter of fact. many Of them come
from laughing. There is, after all, an
art in laughter, and to know how 10
laugh is really quite as important as to
know when to do so. If you laugh with
the sides of the face the skin will work
loose In time, and wrinkles viii form
in exact accordance with the kind OF
laugh you indulge in. The man who
always wears n smirlS will have series
of semi-circular wrinkles covering his
checks. A gambler who is accus-
tomedto suppress his feelings generally
has deep line running from ench side
of his nose to the upper corner of his
mouth. which in time extends to the
chin. forming the shape of n half-moon
A cadaverous person is usually marked
with two wrinkles. one on the jaw and
the other under the eye. meeting al
right angles at the cheek bones. The
students wrinkles form on the brow
while those of the schemer come round
his eyes and resemble the spokes Of q
wheel.-N. Y. Ledger.
