AN OYSTERS AGE.
How an Old Timer Reckors Its Years lby
Its s.Bones."

aus 'ISONeS." F -
Scientists say that during eight
months of the year the oyster lies
In sort of dormant state, during
which time it can be eaten without
Ill effects, but that from April 80 to
Sept. l it should not be served i'm
any form. The writer was talking
with an old oysterman on Long Is
land not long ago, and he asked this
question:
why should we not cat oysters
in summers"'
BE you one of them cranksg"
inquired the oysterman.
The visitor answered that he was
not aware that he was any different
from other people and that he was
simply'seeking information.
LET me tell you something, said
the old man. "Oysters are good
the whole year round, and that story
about the months with an r in
them is all nonsense. It's a good
thing, though, that most people do
not eat them in hot weather, he
cause that's when the young ones
are Matched. If everybody ate them
while they'r growing, the supply
would soon give out"
"What is the age of an oyster?"
do you mean how long will an
oyster livea"
eyes"
eff you let him alone and nothing
else disturbs him he'll live to be
100 or So"
"What!'
Its fact, " said the oysterman,
taking puff at his pipe. "You can
tell an oysters age by his bones"
"Bones!" exclaimed the visitor.
II never heard of an oyster having
bones"
THAT shows you're not up on
natural history, % remarked the old
man.
You say an oyster has bones,
How many, for instanceg'
1.-Two, sir, and they have joints
something like your elbow, but they
are on his body instead of in it,
The visitor saw the point and adj
mltted he was caught. Then he ask
ed the fisherman how he told tn,
age of am oyster.
by the lines ON his Shells" h,
answered. You see, an oyster i.
like a tree, and every year there i,
a new ridge added"
'"Bat does hiS body continue t,
grow4'
Reckon it does, sir, but not s,
rapidly as his she'll"
but how rs it possible for hi,
body to grow when there is only :
certain space within the shell9 TIL,
shell certainly cannot expand, fol
lit is fixed"
"That's where you're wrong
young fellew," declared the oyster
man. Beth shells and bones cal
expand, SIR, specially when they'r,
IN or on live, healthy bodies. Why
even bones taken from dead animal,
are like india rubber"
! The visitor looked cautiousl,
about him and then glanced suspi
lcioElsly at the old oysterman, whc
had resumed smoking.
~You'don't believe it, do you?'
sad he "Weal, when you go bacl
to Brooklyn take a billiard ball
one that's made out of an elephant,
tnsk, 1aind-and drop it ON a mar
ide slab from a height of 20 feet
and If Mt doesn't make mark larger
than the spot it occupies when i
just stands by itself I'll give you
bushei OF oysters. Good day, sir

ON CHANGE
What Was Done yesterday on Wall
Street

Street
NEW YORK, May M-Today's rally in
the stock market was attributable to the
decision OF the supreme court in the inter-
state commerce case. The market had de-
rived strength last week on rumors regard
Ing this decision. but It sold of again this
morning before the decision was announced
on account of doubt beng thrown upon the
reliability of last weeks information. In
all the early dealings the hand of the pro-
fessional trader was plainly evident. The
morning was given over to depression on
account Of the report that the maximum
freight rate case would not be decided by
the supreme court until fall the decision
In the interstate commerce case being also
In doubt. 1t Is an illustration Of the incon-
sistency and professional traders working
for short turn in the market that in the
upward movement that resulted upon the
decision of the interstate commerce case
the postponement Of the Nebraska case
was offered as a bull argument on the
ground that the lower courts Injunction
stands and will stand until the decision Of
the court In October. 1t is also pointed out
that the special session of the Nebraska Leg
islature to correct the law which was in
contemplation in the event Of it's validity
being denied win now be avoided. The
gold shipments announced for tomorrow,
amounting to 81, 400, ,0OO also had q depress-
ing influence in the early trading, as the
amount exceeded considerably what had
been anticipated. There was also news of
further shipments in contemplation for
later In the week. The sensitiveness was
shown by the exchange market to be the
offer of bills against the gold, offset to
some extent. Quite an unwonted degree
OF buoyancy and animation was impaired
to the market by the supreme courts in
terstate commerce decision. This is re-
garded as the most important decision in
Its effect on railroad values since the trans
missouri decision. Part of the strength
impaired to railroad stocks is due to the
belief that it will serve to hasten the en-
actment Of law by congress to authorize
pooling. with the required approval of the
Interstate commerce commission Of any
such agreement to make 1t binding. The
early heavies had carried down pretty
much the whole market. The closing was
strong and buoyant and generally at the
top prices. The bond market ruled moder-
ately active with tendency towards
higher prices. which became quite marked
IN the closing dealings among a few spec
ulative issues. The gains generally did
not exceed fractional limits, of which the
Atchison adjustment fours were conspic-
uous for gain Of 1 per cent. The sales
were $S430O0. Governments were dull. but
showed decided strength in the late deal
ings.
