THE CASSoWARY.
IA Peculiar Bird That Fishes With It's
 Feathers.

Feathers.
 Habits of the cormorant and of the fish hawk are generally known. Their methods of taking fish are very much like those of birds of prey. But the cassowary fishes according to a meth cd of lts own. A well known naturalist witnessed its operations on s river in the island of New Britain.
 He saw a cassowary come down to the waters edge and stand for some minutes apparently watching the wa ter carefully. It then stepped into the river where 1t was about three feet deep and, partially sQuatting down, spread it's wings out submerging them, the feathers being spread and ruffled.
 The bird remained motonless and kept its eyes closed as if in sleep. It remained in this position for quarter of an hour, when, suddenly closing its wings and strengthening its feathers, 1t stepped out on the bank. Here it shook itself several times, whereupon a quan- tity of small fishes fell out of its wings and from amid it's feathers. These the bird immediately picked up and swal- lowed.
 The fishes had evidently mistaken the feathers for a kind of weed that grows in the water along the banks of the rivers in this island and which much resembles the feathers of the cassowary. The smaller fishes hide in these weeds to avoid the larger ones that prey on them.-EIchange
