The Digestion of an Ostrich.
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.
