ORIGIN OF CANAKD.''-A Fren chmar
once sent to newspaper statement Of an
experiment which he had lately made proving
the wonderful voracity Of ducks. He had q
flock, he said, of twenty of these fowls. One
day he killed one of them, and cutting it into
very small pieces, fed it, feathers and all, to
the nineteen, who ate it all up in very few
moments. He then kill ed another, and cut
ting it into small pieces, fed it to the other
eighteen and it was quickly devoured. He
then killed another and fed it to the seven
teen remaining ducks, and still another,
which he fed to the sixteen; and SO continued
until finally there was but one duck left, which
duck had, of course, eaten the other nineteen.
Hence the term q" canard," French for duck +,
is frequently applied to Munchausenish
stories.
