All our fond old beliefs are dis appe-aring 01ne after tho other. Nero was, it no.w appears, a rather (.8 tinlable llonllrli han other'.)Nviso ; llichaird the Thirl had ta great noinber of good points in his char noetI, and m(Nv we ire informed Ilit the (ligestion of tile ostrich"is by no Illealls what peo)lO iniagined. '.1hie bird is g-umerally considered capable of onjoyling, life heartily oi .dUt of tenpenny nails and iopper bol t s. In fact he is fi4pposed to poSes: tle lmppy faculty of assimi hlting any fsuibstance, whether lird or Boft, withont tho troubld''of 1:JdiCa1tivon. 'Whlotler this theory holds true or not in regard to metals and stones, it now appears to e aIt completo delusion in respect to the biLd's digestion of .limsy trilles. His interior economy may be capable, perhliaps, of ,cqnverting doorknockers into food, but it is altogether no-efl'ectivo With lf<' and lin.e linen. This novel fact in iiltil history is Pstablishod by Sco1'respowdelt of Iend and Water, who, about eight )Ionths ago, brought home anl ostrich from Buenos Ayres. The interesting pet was duly establllishod in a garden, where eic had the run of evelythiing, including the green crops and Wall *anils. Forhaps these supplies fell hiort for ia time, or the bird pay have wished to vary his dict. At al evenits, le -began to conunit depredations on whatovo giarmnent were placed out to dry on washing days in the garden. .Tho cook's Siundaiy cap was the first article ising1)~ ; afterward other artick6s vanished, the final thoft being thlat of threco lace ciollars. .Soon after p)artaking of this light meal, that feathered gournet began to show signis (of ind(isp)ositionl, and, in spite of the best mnedical advice, ho gradpally wvasted away, until' d,athi rieve id himi from1 further suffering. On a post mortem being hecld, it was discovered thamt the lae collars, couplledl with two baike' potatoes, had proved too much for ihe bird's digestive power. -His ' eath wvas thus dule--like .many human mfise fortunes-to the lovo of dainty dress. In a primitive stato of society, such1 as ostriches are ac enstomied to, strings of beads gen erally fulfill the purposes of lace collars, and1( beads are dige,sti.iAo oi.oughi-by ostriches. Hoyv, A.lleen, was tihe poor bird to have -known t.hat the means which serve civilized bolles for' tihe enslavemeint of ,men ar1o niot equally innoonous ? Foar. the future, wvhen it is said .of gny man~i that "ho has the A.igestio.n of an ostrich," it will be nccqssary to undI(erstand that tihe imile only holds good in regard to substaintiail arilsof doay.
