.MARvELs OF AN OsTRICH's STOMACH
The post-mortem examination of one of
the flock of Ostriches owned by Barnum
& Bailey which was on exhibition at the
Central Park menAgerie, revealed a sur
prising condition of it's interior The
small boy is supposed to carry around in
cles, but the stomach of the huge bird
contained an even more varied assortment.
The digestive capabilities of an ostrich
are even greater than those of a Harlem
goat, and it is less particular as to what
1t swallows.
The ostrich, which was dissected by a
taxidermist, G. Rowley, few days ago,
had in it's stomach the following articles
One wooden clothespin; two pieces OF
glass, the bottoms of beer bottles: a
mouth harmOnica, five iuches long and
two inches wide; a metal skate key; the
ferrule of an umbrella, with piece of the
stick in it, about four inches long; a
brass door key, five inches long; wom-
ans black horn comb; Il woman's silk
handkerchief; two pieces of coal, about
an inch thick, and three stones about al
inch thick, with some cabbage, grass
lettuce, celery, common dirt, and few
minor pieces of vegetables.
The ostrich did not die from the effects
of the junk shop in it's stomach, but from
tuberculosis. The bird will be mounted
in the museum, and perhaps the collec-
tion may be framed neAr by, not to point
out the evil effects of indiscriminate eat
ing, but to show the use to which an
ostrich's stomach may be put.
Il have never had days sickness in
my life," said a middle aged man the 9th
er day.
"What O comfort it would be-" sighs
some poor Invalid, ito be in his place for
year or two" Yet half of the invalids
we see might be just as healthy as he, if
they would only take proper care OF them
selves, eat proper food-and digest it.
It's SO strange that such simple things
are overlooked by those who want health
Food makes health.
1t makes strength-and strength wards
off sickness. The man who had never
been sick was strong because he always
digested his food, and you could become
the same by helping your stomach tC
work as we'll as his.
1t will make you strong and healthy by
making the food you eat make you fat.
