The Pearl Hunters Superstition.
The pearl hunters Of Borneo and the
adjacent iIlandsl have Il peculiar SUI
perstition. When they open shells in
search Of pearls they take every ninth
find. whether it be large or small, and
put II into a bottle, which is kept
corked with a dead mans finger The
pearls in the vial are known as seed
pearls or breeding pearls and the
native Borneose firmly believes that
they will reproduce their kind. For
every pearl put into the vial two
grains Of rice are thrown in for the
pearls to feed upon" Some whites
IN Borneo believe as firmly in the SUI
'perstition as the natives do. and all
most every hut along the coast has its
dead finger bottle, with from nine
to fifty seed pearls and twice that
number Of rice grains carefully and
evenly slowed away among them.
That no results follow does not dim
the superstition.

Bad Desks Cause Spinal Troubles

The public school system of the
country is responsible for a very
large portion of spinal curvature and
other diseases, according to DIR.
William Bemus of jamestown, n Y.
AT the convention of the Erie rail-
road surgeons in Chicago he stated
that more than 81 per cen of the
children past the age of fourteen are
affected with some form of spinal
trouble.
One of the most prolific causes of
this disease, he declared is the bad
desk accommodations in the public
schools. The average school desk, he
said Is an instrument of torture
rather than a device for the comfort
of the children, as it compels their
sitting in a most uncomfortable posi-
ton, a position which produces a
"lazy' breathing habit and poor
oxygenation, resulting in spinal
trouble. DIR. Bemus, who was elected
president of the Association of Erie
Railroad Surgeons urged a movement
toward providing better seat accom-
modations in the schools.
DIR. Bemus also denounced high
heeled shoes as the cause of an i'm
ens amount of suffering among
girls, including the often nreeog-
nized disease of "fat foot"
