On the west coast of India is foune 2 species of oyster, Placuna placen- ta, whose shell consists of a pair Of roughly circular plates about six Inches in diameter, thin and white. At present these oysters are collected for the pearls which they often con
 tain. although few are fit for the use of the jeweler. Cut in the early days of English rule in India the shells were employed for window-panes- Cut into little squares, they produced a very pretty effect admitting light like frosted glass. When the Bombay ca thedral was built. at the beginning o! the eighteenth century, its windows were paned with these oyster shells

always been proud as peacock OF
