FISH AND THEIR FOOD.
Queer Ways by Which Some of tho
ToothIess Species Get a Meal.


Toothlsss Species Get Meal.
The curious ways in which fishes
eat form quite study. Some fishes
have teeth and some have none at all.
In some the teeth are found upon the
tongue. in some in the throat and in
some in thes stomach. Some draw in
their food by suction; the sturgeon is
one of this class. The jellyfish abb
serbs its food by wrapping it's body
around the prey it covets. The star
fish fastens itself to its victim. turns
its stomach wrong side out and en-
CULTS its dinner without the formal
ity of swallowing it through mouth
first.
SO there are all sorts of methods for
those regularly toothless. and the
fishes which have teeth show almost
as great diversity in the number,
style and arrangement of them. The
ray. or skate has mouth set trans
versely across its head the jaws work
ing with a rolling motion like two
hands set back to back In the Jaws
are three rows of fiat teeth. set like
mosaic pavement and between these
rolling jaws the fish crushes oysters
and other mollnSks like so many nuts"
The carp's teeth are set back in the
