Found A Beautiful Double Pearl While Getting Bait

While hunting tor clam bait at the Kankakee river last week, H. F. Parker, the photographer, found three pearls in one clam. One of them was, a double pearl, or a pearl within a pearl, quite perfect in shape and beautifully colored. It so happened that it was the fhst anniversary of the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Parker and Harry decided to give it to Mrs. Parker for < present.
