The Conservatives suffered hard

to its 500 employees that It was In
favor OF the reciprocity pact and
wished the men on It's payroll to

army of workmen to understand that
IL is strongly opposed to reciprocity.

THE LIFE OF : CLAM.
CLANS, the new wards of the gov
eminent, lead a rather uneventful life
after they once settle down to Ire
real business of their lives on the bot
toms of rivers and lakes: but before
this time they pass through a most
precarious and dangerous period Of
youth Before anything of practical
value could be done for the pearl bU-
ton industry. the scientists had to work
out the life history of every kind o.
clam whose shell is of value in the fac
tory. In this case the scientists made
use of everything already known about
the life of fresh-water clans. but very
many important questions they had 20
solve by original observations and ex-
periments.

The infinitely small young. thousands
of which hatch in one parent shell,

as everybody knows. there is always
room for more clans on the bottom.
But for some inscrutable reason nature
has ordained that every young clam
must become parasitic on some FISH

| completely enclosed. And in this pc
culiar cradle the clam papoose must
! be carried about for one or several
months. Nobody knows why this is
necessary for the life of the clam; all
we know is that nature has ordained
that no clam shall live unless it first
becomes the papoose of some fish.
WHEN THE CRADLE Is EMITTED.
After a period varying from about
one month to four months, according
to the season and the kind of clam,
the papoose carrier opens and the lit
tie clam drops out 1t has not grown
much, but it has obeyed the law, and
can now live and settle on the bot
tom like other clans; and, if no &C
cident befalls it, it's shell in the course
of years will be thick enough for the
pearl factory and sharp enough to spill
boys toe.
These and many other things the
scientific doctors have discovered about
the clam. They have also learned that
it is useless to forbid clam fishing at
any time of the year, because one or
more kinds of clans are breeding prac-
tically every month of the year.
WILL VACINATE FISH WITH CLANS.
The doctors fairly well understand
the case now, and are ready to pre-
scribe. In suitable ponds and aquaria
they have infected at one time as
many as $4,000 fish with millions of
young clans. Such experiments have
been carried on in Wisconsin, in Iowa,
in Missouri and other states. In the
near future hundreds of thousands OF
fish will be vaccinated, so to speak,
with clam germs. and will then be-
turned loose to replenish the exhausted
clam beds and to plant new ones.
The fish will not like II. Having
never done anything since the time of
creation but loaf and tantalize the des-
cendents of Sir Izaac Walton, the out
look for them is rather dreary. Who
would have thought that a part of the
white mans burden would be shifted
to the fish in the streams? But the
pearl men are smiling now, and the
languishing industry will surely recov-
er, and, maybe, larger pearl buttons
will soon be the fashion.
