expounding his position ON the labor
question. He claimed that when the
miners did wrong they were wrong.

right. He placed the coal operators

i The Searchli6ht
Farming for Pearls.

The United States bureau OF nsneries
has come to the decision to start breed
ing pearl mussels by artificial means
in the valley of the Cumberland river.
This industry has been found In the
orient and in certain parts of Europe to
be a highly profitable one In facts
there exists no reason why the sue
cessful pearl farmer need in the least
envy the farmer of ginseng or even the
chicken farmer.
1t has been found that the pearl-bear-
ing mussel responds to proper en-
Encouragement with profit-bringing
alacrity. Fresh water pearls are pro-
duced in a variety of mussels by the
action of certain small parasitic worms.
These worms bore through the shell
and set up an irritation in the flesh OF
the mussel. which, to protect itself, So.
cretes an excess of Forthcoming ma
terial and encasss its tormentor within
a gem.
Therefore, to grow pearls one only
needs the mussel, the fitting mussel bed
and a supply of these little parasitic
worms. The mussels are encouraged by
their proper home surroundings and
the parasites to grow the gems, anu all
the pearl farmer further has to do il
to lean back in an easy chair and cut
coupons and cash checks.
To start such a life, it is only neces-
sary to send to the government for
mussel eggs, and for a number of mus
sells infected with the pearl-starting
parasite.

of luxurious abandon.
In Vienna the people have outlived

ideals of hedonism. Pleasure stalks

volume stands as casebook on the sub
1ect Of feeble mindedness More than
800 children Of this class are represented
in these records, whose ultimate purpose
is to determine. If may be, the causes
Of feeble miindedness and to point to the
most obvious and generally menacing OF
its consequences. Thoroughly scientific
in aim and method, the findings of this
investigation are, nevertheless, within
easy reach OF the interested general
reader. An immense fund Of many sided
information bearing upon this subject Is
made concrete, in SO far az this is pos
sible, by charts, photographs. statistical
summaries and other graphic means OF
demonstration. The author defines feeble
mindedness, discussing its causes and
describing the part 1t plays in crime. al
coholism, prostitution and pauperism.
Much space is given to the method of OBJ
tanning and using the data upon which
the conclusions of this investigation are
based, SO that the book serves as an ex-
position of method in addition to its high
value as a source Of authoritative and
