LARGEST OYSTER SHELL IN
THE WORLD.

Those Of our citizens who are
interested in wonderful curiosi-
ties from the briny deep, should
look in one Of the show windows
of Pfister Bros. and see the re-
markable oyster shell on exhihi-
ton there, owned by Mr.. G. p.
Moss, president of the New Ibe-
ria Tabasco Pepper Company Of
this City. The monster shell is
said to be centuries old and its
dimensions being thirty and one
half inches long by twenty and
one-half inches wide. 1t was
taken from the bed Of the South
China Sea, bordering the Island
of Busuanga, the oyster she'll was
fished by a native of the PhiIli-
pine Islands The sight of such
a wonder of the sea, created
much excitement amongst the
natives. especially that such a
catch was capable of furnishing
a feast to their tribe. However,
it came to pass that United
States Government official fell in
possession of the huge shell, and
when the st. Louis Worlds Fair
f1ourished, among the Philippine
Island exhibits. the world s larg-
est oyster she'll found it's way
Coming from one Of Uncle Sam s
possessions, naturally made the
curiosity more interesting.
After its exhibit at tho st.
Louis Worlds Fair, this rare
mammoth oyster shell accidentlly
fell into the hands Of a st. Louis
merchant, who suddenly died,
recently. the merchant s son
thereby becoming it's owner. Mr..
G. L. Moss on his numerous visits
to st. Louis, had on several occa-
sions spoke to the merchant as to
his being anxious to possess such
wonderful oyster shell-how-
ever. this was as far as the con-
veration OH these lines ever went.
On recent trip of Mr.. C. p. Moss
to st. Louis, he learning Of his
friend S sudden death, called to
express his regrets to the surviv-
ing son. 1t was on this occasion
that Mr. Moss expressed himself
DESTROYS to purchase the freak
oyster shell. Aware of the friend
ship that had existed between his
father and Mr.. Moss. the mer.
chant s son accepted the fancy
sum offered him. yet. an accept
ance with the stipulation that Mr..
Moss would never dispose Of the
rare shell.

WHEN OUT OF SORTS START

No Matter What Aids You, bod
sons LIVER Tone is Usually a
Bib Help in Getting Well.
Avoid Calomel.
Nine time out Of ten, when you
are II or out of sorts, your liver
is out of order and getting it Ill
order again will make you fee
better. When your liver is slug
gish and tropid and you are con-
stipated and bilious, it is impos
sible to feel we'll.
There was q time when great
number of people took calomel
when so troubled. But this is
not true today. 1t has become
widely known that calomel often
has bad aftereffects and is even
dangerous to many. The use OF
Dodson s Liver Tone instead OF
calomel has spread wonderfully
because it has proved so bene-
fetal in so many households.
