profits. The business is therefore mysterious.
 Peariing is game of hazard for high stakes The pearler must risk capital and human life. He must brave the sea and SC prepared to fight for his rights with savage men, and he must pay the taxes and divide the prof. its with the shrewd traders from Cey- lon and Singapore. Sometimes, says the Far Eastern Review. fortune smiles. Three years ago a single pearl was marketed in the Celebes for 3s,eo0 pesos Such finds rarely come to pub lie notice. Shrewd traders are always on hand to snatch them away from the ignorant and fearful divers, and the jewel Is first exposed for sale in London ar Paris or q Dutch port
 The Moros have three ways of get- ting the pearl shells out of the sea. One is by actual diving, one by dreag- ing, and a third by q three-pronged catcher let down by a rattan rope. This last method can be used only when the sea is absolutely calm, be- cause the least ripple will prevent the fishermen from seeing the shell at the bottom of the sea. When the first method is employed, the diver always says his prayers before he goes down. In the days when the shells were plen- tifuI the diver went down to a depth of from eight to twelve fatfems. but now there are men who even go as deep as twenty fathoms.
 In the former times the divers were supposed to give the biggest pearls to the Sultan, but when the natives came to learn the value of money, they secretly sold them to the traders. As a consequence, when 1t came to the knowledge of the sultan that one of his subjects had suddenly become rich, he concluded that a pearl must have been sold, else how did he obtain all these fine things in so short a space of time. A messenger would be sent out at once to fine the man large sum of money.
 Special laws have now been made bs the Phillipine Commission covering the pearling industry.The sultan and his followers have no longer any legal right to collect fines and penalties, but the custom has obtained for so long that the ignorant people still fear the power of the Sultan. and have not yet gained sufficient confidence in the American government to accept its guarantee of protection.

In one case copy right Is this secured for pictures which inc owner will utilize in magazines sold over the country; but generally the dummy journals are made up or matter offered for sale to editors.
 Though outsiders never see these and other publications of their class, they are none the less interested in them For the British Museum authorities catalogue and bind them all. Even dummy paper produced once year is bound by itself.
