HEAD HUNTERS GETTING BUSY
Natives of Solomon Island Take Ad- vantage of War to Gather
 Tropics.

At first sigpt there does not seem 59 9e aa.-Se 3 SI- SSerI - connection between, the was iE Europe and head hunting in the Solomon islands. Nevertheless, the one arises from the other.
 Previous to the outbreak of the war, according to Vancouver Worlds Sydney (N. s. W9 correspondent, Brit ish, and occasionally German war ships parolled the islands and en- deavored to keep down eannibalism among the natives, who are largely of Papuan or Malaysian stock. How ever, the requirements for the tra%- port of troops led to the recall of the British Warships-and the happy head hunter has been free to follow his own devious courses.
 In one raid made by mountain trible upon q small village near the coast no less than 2G heads were se- cured. No punishment followed be- cause the whites were unable to or gauiZe in time. As q consequence the raids are growing more dangerous, and although as vet, no Europeans have been attacked, planters have con stantly to keep on their guard.

Imitation Pearls.

Clever imitation perls have been made by filling thin glass bulbs with a solution of fish scale nacre. Another method is to coat the inside of the glass bulbs with a 10 per cent gelatin solution which is allowed to become only partially dry before small amount of sodium phosphate is added then the drying process is continued slowly. The limitations look much like genuine pearls but they can be detect ed by noting the place where the bulbs have been sealed.

were lost as we ran into a cloud, when

would have required an hour more,
and the passage would have been
rough, as heavy sea was running.

after their arrival. When storms have
not prevented their migration, fifty

he had reported our arrival at the
