QUEER HABITS OF OYSTERS.
They Cannot Live Unless Rsciinina
on the Left Side.

why does an oyster sleep and live
on Its left sidey' asked man OF New
Orleans Times Democrat writer. We'll,
suppose we will have to put the ques-
tion to nature, and nature has her own
way OF answering questions. | have
been fooling around In the oyster wa
ters of Louisiana and Mississippi
good many years, and | am In po-
sition to say that the oyster always re-
mains on its left side BY this mean
that this is the natural position OF the
oyster. | may remark paranthetically
that this is one of the difficulties oys-
ter culturists have to deal with, for In
rebedding oysters and punching them
an oyster is occasionally thrown upon
his right side and wedged so that he
cant turn over. He simply dwindles
away and dies by degrees Put upon
his right side and forced to remain
upon his right side, the oyster cannot
live.
"0f course there is an explanation
OF this pecuiarity. The rtght-hand
part VI the os bttE suell is the lop uhi
movable part. II the oyster Is put In
its natural position--that Is, on its left
side-it requires only small amount
OF physical energy TO open and raise
the right-hand section of the shell
when the oyster wants to feed. Re-
verse the position and put the oyster
on the right hand side, and We find
an extremely difficult problem, from
the oysters standpoint. In order to
open the shell for feeding processes it
is necessary for the oyster to raise not
only the weight of the left-hand section
of the shell, but its own weight
I'VE can readily understand the diff
Guilty and even the lmposslbilty of this
task II we know anything at all about
the architecture of the oyster shell and
the nature and constitution of the oys-
ter. So If we reverse the natural posi-
tion of the oyster, put him on his right
side and wedge him In so he cant turn
over, we simply smother and starve
him to death OF course | am Just
theorizing about this thing. There may
be some other explanation OF the left
handed life of the oyster, but from my
experience | am inclined to think the
explanation given reasonable one.

COURAGE

Who fails to strike when mans assailed,
For fear Of selfish pain or loss.
Who weakly covers when right is nailed
Upon the proud worlds heavy cross !;
Who fails TO speak the splendid word
Of bold defiance to lie
Whose voice for truth is family heard
When party passions mount on high
Who dares no struggling cause espouse,
And loves no paths by martyrs trod !;
Whose timorous soul no call can rouse
To dare TO stand alone with God
That man is coward, and no deeds
or valor done ON fields of strife
Can prove his courage. Battle needs
Are naught beside tested life.
Who dalleys with temptations lure,
Nor hurls his tempter to the ground; !;
Who champions not the weak, the poor,
Whom power and strength with cords
have bound
Who bows obsequious to the strong,
And crushes what he knows is weak;
Who crouches meath opinions lash,
Nor dares his own true thought pro-
claim;
Who never with an impulse rash
Ran on before his time-is tame,
Is coward, and no work uprears
Which lasts. Gods edict on high
Says courage shall outlast the years,
But every coward soul shall die.
