Rich Pearls Found In MusSels as
Season OPENS


The mussel. Smelling season is on
in the Illinois River. and some rich
finds in the line of pearls are being
made. The Degerlia brothers week
before last found two pearls, one
valued 5000 and the other at $1,000.
Last week, according to reports.
they sold another to jeweler for
$500.
There is strange lure in shell
finding. The mussels, after they
are caught, are cooked in large YES
sells and the meat in each one is
examined to detect any pearl that
may be there. There is always the
possibility of making a rich find,
and the work is the kind that keeps
the nerves on a continuous excited
strain.
Many men and their families
spend the summer on the river at
the work. The men do the fishing
and the women remain on the
shores and attend to the cooking of
the mussels.-St. Louis Times.
