REAL ORIGIN or THE PEARL
Live In Oysters Sheil-Poetic
Fancy Shattered.
(By DIR. HUGH M SMITH. in the Ma
finnal Gaarrar hic MagaZi nAl

(By DIR. HUGH M. SMITH. in the Ma
tional Geographic Magazine.)
For many centuries. even until COM
paratively@ recent times, 1t was the
common belief that pearls were drops
OF dew that gained entrance into the
shell Of an oyster. and were there
transformed into lustrous gems. Arab
and Indian divers still believe that at
certain seasons oysters come to the
surface and suck in the rain-drops
that later become pearls. Science.
however, has rudely shattered this
poetic fancy, and discovered the real
origin to be worm.
We know that almost any foreign
body-a grain of sand. bit Of mud
or shell. a piece of ragweed or small
animal-may by its irritation cause
the mollusk to cover 1t with nacre
and make 1t the nucleus of pearl;
but the largest part of the annual
pearl crop of the world Is due to para
sites that normally pass a part OF
their life-cycle within the shell OF the
pearl-oyster.

eat the trigger-fshes. In the rays the
worms attain full development. and
produce larvae that are cast into the

more.

manians, Georgians and Servians.
The domestic government OF the
monasteries was regulated in 1046 by
Constantine Mcnomachos, with the
aid of the patriarch OF Constantinople
BY the imperial document which he
issued women are forbidden on the
peninsula, prohibition 80 strictly OBJ
served that even the Turkish aga. or
official who resides at Karyaes. may
not take his harem with him. To
such an extent is this prohibition
carried that even the females of AMI
mails are not permitted on the PENN
sula. On occasions when women are
forced to land there in storms they
are at once placed In huts and sent
away at the first opportunity.
The Paleologi emperors at Con-
stantinople and the Slav princes OF

Amid the political disasters of the
Greeks during the fourteenth century
Mount Athos appears as a kind OF
holy land, place where the Hellenic
spirit was cherished when 1t was
threatened elsewhere, and even today
it is one of the most sacred pilgrimage
sites of the entire Greek church and
the feasts of the principal monaste-
ries are always celebrated with great
pomp.
The fall Of Constantinople in 1853
brought no modification of the condi-
tons on the holy mountain. The
monks, who stubbornly opposed all at
tempts at reconciliation with the
church of Rome, submitted at once to
the domination of the Osmanli and.
with rare exceptions, have never been
interfered with by the Turkish au-
thorities.
|. AS a general rule the monks hold
their property in common. They are
divided into two classes, the 'idiorhyth-
mic" and the "cenobitic." The latter
lives are of great monastic rigor,
their chief occupation day and night
being solemn public prayer. The 9TH
ers enjoy a little more freedom and
practice minor industries in aid of
the common support.

other chapter, unless it. may be as
sumed that the bottle was built around
it. The chain is long enough to per-
NIT the stopper being taken entirely
out of the neck of the flask and of
course the ring presents no obstacle
either to the filing or emptying of
the receptacle. This may be a little
thing. but 1t is big enough to save
many people the price of new wa
ter bottle, which is what the loss of
the old stopper means.
