OYSTER Livers.

The liver of the oyster-if he will forgive a
reference to such delicate matter-is his
most important feature. So say the learned
men. The liver mass is very dark in color
and can be easily seen with the naked eye.
The size and Importance of this tissue, says
Professor Rice, is what makes the oyster 50
grateful to delicate stomachs. A diet Of raws
will cure dyspepsia, he says, and be lays it to
the liver. Speaking of iivers, it is curious
fact that although intended by nature to lead
a sedentary life the oyster thrives upon e1er-
cise If he becomes attached to the hull OF a
vessel or the shell of some movable animal,
like lobster, for instance, he will be bigger
and healthier oyster in consequence. But he
can do a great deal of "settin' still' and yet
not suffer from enlargement OF the liver
