The foot Is made into delicious
SOUPS and chowders, and in Japan and
China is dried and salted. Here 1t Is
a most important staple sea food.
The food consists Of marine vege-

the green covered rocks.
The holes are most necessary to
the mollusks. They are like port
holes of a ship. Through them the
long feelers of the mantle are thrust.
Water that has bathed the gills is
thrown out through them, and the
last one is used for discharging waste
matter from the body. These holes
have nothing to do with the age OF
the abalone. 1t is not known how old
they live to be.

On the whole, miraculous re-

rarely returns to its original state.
