FIGHT OF DUCK AND. OYSTER
BlvaIve Conquered by CIinging to the
Fowls Bill Until the Bird Was
Drowned.

Not long ago there occurred lively
contest in Maryland waters between
duck and an oyster. The oyster
was victorious, but 1t was fatal VIC
tory, for when the bivalve had killed
the duck there appeared a man who
killed the oyster and ate them both.
The combat between the duck and
the oyster was of the rough and tum-
BILE kind. The duck was large and
full grown. 1t was of the diving spe-
cies frequently seen in those waters.
Now when the oyster feeds 1t opens
its shell SO wide that the full oyster
itself is plainly visible. The sight of
such morsel was too great a tempta-
ton for the duck. He made head
long plunge, inserting his bill between
the oysters open shell.
Like flash the shell closed on the
ducks beak. Then came a struggle
for life. The OYSTER which was quite
large one, was dragged from it's bed,
with three smaller bivalves clinging
to 1t, the cluster being heavy enough
to keep the ducks head under water.
In this way the bird drowned. It's
buoyancy was sufficient to float it
with the oysters. and thus 1t drifted
near the dock; where Il was captured.
When taken from the water the oys-
ter was clinging to the birds beak
with such force that considerable diff
hculty was had in breaking its hold.

FROM THE TRoPIcs-

In Central America many natives are
gathering the seeds Of this plant, Cedron
Seed, a rare medicine that has valuable
curative powers. But few drug stores
carry this seed, owing to the high cost
OF the article.
This country is large consumer of
this costly seed because it enters into
the famous catarrh remedy, Peruna,
sold the world over.

HOW BETHLEHEM WAS NAMED
Pretty Story of the Origin Of the
Pennsylvania City, Now In
dustrial Center.

1t was not uniting that Bethlehem
the center of missionary enterprise
and social service should have the
name of the birthplace of the Christ.
But the name was given 1t under
doubly fitting auspices. In December.
1741, Count Zinzendorf, the friend and
protector of the Moravians in Saxony,
came to visit them. The original log
dwelling sheltered both the people
and the cattle. It was in this house
that they were sitting on Christmas
eve. Suddenly Count Zinzendorf
arose and led the way past the parti-
ton to the part where the cattle were
stabbed, and there around the hangers
they sang Chrhtmas songs. After that
they could think of no name quite SO
fitting as Bethlehem.
But in spite of church institutions
bethlehem 10 no longer a religious
community. It is industrial. With the
coming Of industry have come condi-
lions of which David Nitschmann,
founder of Bethlehem, never dreamed.
II wasn't an example of the old
brotherhood when, in 1909, five men
were discharged because they had
signed a petition to the management
of the Bethlehem Steel corporation
asking for the elimination of Sunday
work. 1t wasn't an example Of broth
erhood when in 1910 another man was
discharged for avoiding Sunday work,
and then three more because they
served on a committee that protested
against this mans discharge.-John A.
s1tch, in The Survey.

New Electric Lines.

The following is clipped from Tole-
do, O., dispatch:
At present the Michigan United rail
way owns and operates 2l5 miles OF
electric and So miles of steam roads.
Within the present year the company
will begin the construction OF import
ant extensions and the identification OF
its steam roads which. when complet-
ed, will give the company total of 500
miles of electric railway main line,
with Chicago as its western terminal
and Toledo and Detroit as its eastern
terminals. The contemplated improve
ment Of, the greatest Importance to
Toledo will be the construction OF the
proposed extension from jackson to
Adrain, from which place it will oper-
ate into this city over the Toledo q
Western.
In other wards, there will be real
electric trunk line railway from Toledo
to jackson, with direct connections in
the latter city for Detroit and many
other important cities in central and
southern Michigan and for Chicago.
This virtually will make the Toledo q
Western q part of one of the greatest
interurban systems in the United States.
The Michigan United also will build
an extension from Kalamazoo to Grand

to Saginaw, 80 miles, and from Owosso

The effort made by the Michigan
Brewery Association and the saloon in
terests of this state to have it believed
that recent decision of the supreme
court dlsturbs in any way the manu-
facture or sale of cider in Michigan is
fully disposed of in an official commu.
nication from Attorney General Kuhn.
In letter dated January 10, 1926 to
the prosecuting attorney of Branch
county, the attorney general said:
THE word cider as used in the local
option law does not include the infer
mented product and does not include
cider vinegar. The decision of the case
of People VS.. Eberle does not change
the rule that sweet or unfermented
cider and cider vinegar may lawfully
be manufactured and sold in these
counties where the local option law has
been adopted"
(Signed) FRANZ G. KUHN,
Attorney General.
Whether county is wet" or dry"
does not matter in the least so far as
the sale of cider is concerned Cider
that could not be sold in dry county
could not be sold in wet county ex-
cept in saloons or by some one pos
sessed OF the proper licenses and the
authority to sell intoxicating liquors.
Attorney General Kuhn's official letter
as to the law in the case and the SUI
preme courts decision disposes of the
cider discussion 80 far as its relation to
local option is concerned.
