The lower edges of these plates of whalebone are split into thousands of hairs like bristles, so that the inside roof of a whale's mouth resembles an enormous blacking brush! The object of this curious arrangement is to enable the whale to catch the little shrimps and small sea-blubbers, called "medusa;", on which it feeds.
As for Fanny, her spirits, momentarily damped by the sight of the silver tray, rose with a bound as she surveyed the table. "I say, Toni, what a spread! Shrimps, I declare! Well, I thought you'd have been much too smart nowadays to think of them!" "Nonsense!" Toni's depression vanished, and she laughed gaily. "I always did like shrimps and why shouldn't I have them if I want them?
Conceive the holy joy of the bookstall clerk as she and her bag of shrimps yes, he could have told at once they were shrimps approached and asked for The Morning Post. The day can never be dull to the bookstall clerk. I imagine him assigning in his mind the right paper to each customer.
Have you ever watched those little sailing-vessels which go a-shrimping? They carry a large net a shrimp-trawl, it is called which is drawn over the sandy home of the Shrimp. When the trawl is hauled up it may contain not only Shrimps, but the other dwellers in sandy places. Among these, sad to say, is often a mass of baby Plaice and other flat fish.
The lecturer on deep-sea fish had fulfilled his threat and spoken at great length on a subject which, treated by a master of oratory, would have palled on the audience after ten or fifteen minutes; and at the end of fifteen minutes this speaker had only just got past the haddocks and was feeling his way tentatively through the shrimps.
Boil all together until the rice is cooked. Then add the beans and the peas and cook a little longer. The soup is ready when it is thick. If desired, this chowder can be made with fish broth instead of the stock, and with the addition of shrimps which have been taken from their shells. This dish can be served hot or cold.
"They'll be greatly disappointed, when they see us, then, won't they?" laughed Hal Hastings. "Now, see here," protested Eph, earnestly, "I can stand a good deal. But, if they see us walking around the club, and ask who left the lid off the can of shrimps I'll fight!" Ulwin laughed heartily.
Some of the eel-like fish, two or three shrimps, a new species of dypha, various kinds of crabs, and a large species of Physalis, were caught today. August 25. Caught various kinds of crabs, some minute shells, and a small curious insect, quite new to me, of a bright blue colour; the shrimps appear to be very fond of these insects, seizing them the instant they are put into the glass with them.
"What the dickens are sambals?" said Tom Long. "Well, it's either pickles or curry, whichever you like to call it," continued Bob. "These sambals are so many little saucers on a silver tray, and they are to eat with your curry. One had smashed up cocoa-nut in milk; another chillies; another dried shrimps, chutney, green ginger, no end of things of that kind and jolly good they were!
All its wonderful changes, and the way its body is made, tell us plainly that the Barnacle is actually first cousin to the Crab, Lobster, Shrimp and Prawn! It belongs to the class known as the Crustacea; but, for some reason or other, it has chosen to live its grown-up life fixed to a rock. How does the Shrimp swim? Of what use are Shrimps and Prawns in the sea?
