Oysters and Indigestion.

An interesting experiment was
made not long since by physician
to determine the relative effect OF
whisky and beer upon the digestion
Of food in the human stomach.
AS oysters are regarded as self-di-
gested food, two fine specimens were
chosen, one being placed in a glass
full of beer, and the other in a sim
liar vessel about half full of whisky.
The oysters were allowed to remain
in their respective receptacles all
night.
When examined in the morning by
the physician it was found that the
bivalve which had been in the beer
had dissolved with the exception Of
the tough and indigestibls heart,
while the oyster that had spent the
night in the whisky had shrunk to
half its natural size, and was almost
as tough as sole leather, no dissolu-
ton whatever having taken place.

For pair Of black pearls to match

dunn size is the correct one.
