0'NEILL'S BULLETIN.

If a total stranger came up to you on
the street and held out to you a nice
new crisp $40 bill that had never been
folded and said to you, II will give you
this for five 81 bills,' you would i'm
mediately say, no, because you would
think 1t was a counterfeit. Now here
I come along and offer you practically
the same proposition, except that mine
is a house instead of a $40 bill. The
house will be sold for great deal less
than it is worth, and 1t is in a part OF
the town where the values are increas-
ing rapidly; up near Vine street. If I
had started business yesterday and in
tended to get out OF business as soon
as sell this house, you might hesitate
before you bought it on my recon-
mendation; but don't you see that 1t
would be radically wrong for me to
make any statement of this sort unless
Il were so? I happen to be in the real
estate business to stay, and If make
statements that will not bear investiga-
tion. people will not be apt to believe
me the next time say thing. This
house Is for three families.
Open every night except Monday.

THE ORIGIN OF PEARLS.
British Scientist Is of the Opinion
That They Are Created by the
Actions of Worm.

For many years the world has be-
lieved that pearls are the result of
mechanical injury to the shellfish in
whose shells they are found. The the
DRY has been that a grain of sand. or
something irritating like it, gets into
the shell and that the mollusc throws
off secretion to cover it, which finally
becomes the pearl.
The world has accepted this eXplana-
ton, and practically all the text books
describe the formation of the pearl in
that way. Yet everybody who handles
pearls knows that there is no grain of
sand or any similar body in them.
Now Prof. II. l.. jameson, of the
Geological society, of London, asserts
that the theory is all wrong. He says
that both his studies and his expert
ments prove that the pearl is formed,
not because of an injury from inor-
ganic substances, but because of irri-
tation caused by worm.
This worm, according to Prof. Jane
son, is not a sea worm. but a para
site of the elder duck. When the ducks
swim in the sea, the eggs of the para
site are deposited in the ocean and sink
to the bottom. There many of them
drift with other food into the currents
that flow over the pearl mussel and
pearl oyster beds and SO they get into
the shells.
Here they are Matched out. The
young of the parasites then surround
themselves with a curious, transpar-
ent, almost invisible sac, and other
parasites are born in turn. They crawl
around the sea bottom till they finally
enter the pearl shells and bore them
selves into the mantle, which is the
skin between the she'll and the body
of the shellfish.
In this place the parasites discharge
small lime kernels. which irritate the
mantle of the shellfish until it, too, he
gins to discharge a similar lime forma-
ton.
Sometimes the parasite escapes be-
fore the lime wall has been built com.
pletely around it. Then the pear
forms itself around the little kernels
discharged by it. Sometimes the worm
is imprisoned and dies, and Jameson
says that he has been able to find Tx
remains of such worms in pearls.

near by ones door the swift-going,
cheap means of transportation to get
to town, is not so deadly monotonus
as once it was. 'H;tching up" bad
roads, tired horses, all the old-t.me
hindrances have been done away with,
and boys and girls can get out often
and see something of city folk and city
ways.
Likewise the city dweller is not inn
prisoned so closely as before. A five
cent fare, and he and his chicks can
fly out into the blessed country, escape
from smoke and dust and ceowding
neighbors TO green fields and wide
spaces. The townsman begins to real
ize that the trolley is something more
than ''transportat ion." He begins to
look upon it as a luxury, his own car
riage-or automobile-wh will take
him almost anywhere he may desire to
go. He goes through pleasant country
ways, and when he comes o town he

sees among the trees comfortable and
beautiful homes. Indeed, trolleying is
refreshing.
For a long ride the uncushioned
seats would get pretty tiresome, and
the upholstered trolley has already
come into use. In Michigan the line
running from Jackson to Detroit has
large upholstered cars, with many Of
the toilet conveniences common to
steam cars. From Muncie, Ind. TO In

There is now being constructed in
Brussels a new aerial machine the plan
of which is considerably more amb;-

evolved in the empire of the air. up
to the present. The inventor, NJ. Wiz

makes his home in Belgium, is aiming
to solve the problem of aerial auto
mobilism'-th is, to create a type
of automobile that will remain sus-
pended in the air at height of two or
three meters, in such way as to be
able to benefit in speed by the diminu-
ton in the resistance 10 the movement.
The reasoning is that resistance is less

A TRICK WITH WATER.

even after the weight of the glass has
been added to that of the water. Rub
the edge of a glass with grease and
then pour in water until it will not
hold another drop. Next bore hole
in the middle of sheet of cardboard
and, after you have drawn piece of
Irvine through the hole, knot it at one
end, and then carefully close with wax
that portion of the hole which the knot
does not fill.
Finally, lay the cardboard on the
glass and press it down around the
edge. The glass can now be raised in
the air by the piece of Irvine, and, if
suspended from hook, can be made to
swing to and fro like pendu.um.-De-
