We may say, in general, that the curve of these beaches represents a balance between the consumption and supply of the pebbles which they grind up. The supply of pebbles brought along the shore by the waves is in many cases greatly added to by a curious action of seaweeds.
"When Olaf went out, he had to push his boat ever so far, and now the water is almost up to the line of seaweeds and shells." "I wonder what makes the water go in and out?" questioned Dodo, half to herself. "I don't exactly know," said Rap; "but I think it is because the earth goes round every day, making the water tip from one side to the other and then back again."
She had nothing warm and human at all, now that brave protecting tenderness was gone from her. No one came to the little cabin in the ravine where Moya sat and moaned, and stretched her arms all day for the dear brown head she had last seen stained with the salt water and matted with the seaweeds.
There is also a good, though small museum, containing specimens of beautiful corals, shells, seaweeds, and fossils; all the ancient native weapons, such as bows, arrows, swords, and spears now, alas! no longer procurable sling-stones, and stones used in games, back-scratchers, hair-ornaments made of sharks' teeth, tortoise-shell cups and spoons, calabashes and bowls.
He looks quite capable of wading out here after me if I don't. She picked her steps carefully back with her precious specimens. The stranger eyed her severely as she stepped on the rocks. "I should think you would have more sense than to risk your life in that fashion for a handful of seaweeds," he said. "I haven't the faintest idea what you mean," said Miss Rangely.

Eric looked at him reproachfully. "What's the fun of that, Monty? you let it drop on purpose." "O never mind; I'll get Wildney another.
And it would be well, in getting an aquarium, to have the tank and the seaweeds sent a few days in advance of the stock, so that on the arrival of the creatures they may be at once transferred to their new abode. There are no American books upon the subject, and, in the present want of them, the two whose names are given above are the best that can be obtained. Mr.

And now I must plant it again with seaweeds, and coralline, and anemones, and I will make it the prettiest little rock-garden on all the shore."
Running up to the top of one of the hills, and letting her eyes range over sky and sea, she would drink in the scents that were waking to life after the burning heat of the day: salt water, warmed sand and seaweeds, ti-scrub, sour-grass, and the sturdy berry-bushes, high as her knee, through which she had ploughed her way.
