OUR PEARLING INDUSTRY.

10 Wonderful orowth and lts Effect
Upon Our Musssl esds.
In our midwestern states the pearl
ing industry Il carried on to Y
greater extent than It II abroad. Its
product amounts to many millions Of
dollars annually and includes al jew
els worth while and the making Of
pearl buttons, which 10 an industry In
itself. The business of pearl button
making had it, beginning In the high
tariR imposed on imported buttons BY
the law Of 1890.
On account Of tho abundance Of suit
able mu1sels In the Mississippi river
the 6rst factory for the manufacture
Of pearl buttons from mussel shells
was erected ct Muscatine, H., and the
industry has grown to such an extent
that Il now employs nearly $4,000 per-
sons, who turn out approximately &c.,
100000 gross of buttons. To produce
this amount there were used owe 75,-
600 tons Of mussel shells.
The button business has attained
large proportions, doing approximate
~ $1O,O0O,O0O worth each year. Al
though the mussel fishery Is compare
lively new, probably not o than
twenty years old, continued fishing has
had a pronounced influence on the pro-
ductivity of the mussel beds and bids
fair to lead to serious consequences.
The principal species of mussel used
for button making Is generally known
as the "niggerhead." They have the
general shape of the common round
clam and are characterized by a very
thick and heavy shell. They have
black or dark brown outside skins and
glistening white interiors, this being
uniform through the thickness of the
shell. Other species are highly priced,
but rare, and some are Of little value
because OF the thinness and brittleness
Of the shells. Charles A. Sidman In

ABUSING THE EYES.


4eadlNo While Rocking % : Mighty
harmfui Habit.
A well known oculist declares that
women injurs their eyes, sometimes
seriously, BY swinging back and forth
IN 4 rocking chair while reading. This
practice u especially Injurious when
one - reading by an artificial light or
BY daylight when the sway Of the
rocker makes shadows come and 60 on

think o0eis book u held, there q bound
to % ! little unsteadlness 81 tbe page
g ~ cae1r goese forward and back,
md ths 9y1s must adjust themselves
rapidly to tho changing focus.
Every one knows the danger Of read
ing In q fast moving railroad train, but
reading In 4 fast moving rocking chair
Is quite a bad. Women who use q low
rocker for sewing seldom sway back
and forth much when an important bit
Of work Is In hand. The chair stops,
and interest Is concentrated on the
problem Of stitching or hemming, but
many q woman will read and rock,
rock and read, through q whole We
ming and perhaps every time her chair
comes forward the shadow of the lamp
shade fringe is cast across the page OF
her book, this In addition to the con-
tinual change Of focus made necessary
for 1nnU s,rfPor4nu ovoS
A rocking chair is not really restful,
and most women rock from nervous
habit; the more nervous they are the
faster they rock. Man really rests
and relaxes when he sits down In q
deep, rockerless armchair. Who ever
saw q man rocking violently and smok-
ing q cigar at the same time? The
woman who sit perfectly still with
folded hands while she rests and spend
an hour reading without rocking or
swinging one foot with knees crossed
will benefit In erves and In eyes from
the resting or the reading. She who
rocks and reads will certainly feel eye
strain from the practice sooner or later.

How 70 Walk.

There Is no virtue In q dawdling
saunter. The slow and languid drag
cling Of one foot after the other which
some people call walking would tire
an athlete. 1t utterly exhausts a weak
person, and that Is the reason why
many delicate persons think they can
not walk. To derive any benefit from
the exercise 1t Is necessary to walk
with Q light, elastic step which swings
the weight Of the body 50 easily from
one leg to the other that its weight is
not felt and which produces q healthy
glow, showing that the sluggish blood
Is stirred to action In the most remote
vofna
