These qurtains let the air in, and the ies, should there be any in the room, pass out between the blue beads towards the light, but they do not re-enter. _.u--u -u-uu V: vu III: The Canadian Pacic Railway has a grand total oi. 1,500 miles of double `track.

An oys- ter will not produce a pearl unless it. he irrigated by some foreign 5.111- stance. As soon as it feels this it iprm-ceds to cover it with nzxcre. layer on layer, until after` :1 few years it has made a pearl. When large enough the oysters are taken from their beds and rrarefully opened; a tiny spec`.-: of some foreign substance is intro- duced into their bodies, and they are replaced in the sea. By the end of from three to five years the oyster has coated the foreign substance with nacre and this has become a pearl. All the work on this oyster farm is done by women, who bring the oysters up and down by Giving. At Athens, Georgia, there is 0. giant white oak tree which no one may buy or sell or cut down; nobody owns the land in which this tree stands. The , tree owns itself. It stands on top of one of the hills of the city. nnd is ` said to be between 400 and 500 _V?.l`S : old. Early in the nineteenth century , the owner of the plantation on which i the tree stud often used to sit in the l shade of the huge oak. F`inall:', he ` became so attaclied to the tree that he made a will which deeded the tree to itself. He wrote: For, and in con- I sideration of the great love I bear this tree, and the great desire I have for ` its protection for all time. I convey to it entire poswssion of itself, and all l land on 8 feet of the tree on all sides." `And so the tree came to own itself [and 8 feet of ground surrounding it.
