ANATOMY OF AN OYSTER.
Th Bivalve's Organs Numerous and
Ita Haart Quit Humanlika.
Kverv oyster ham niouili. a heart,
a liver, a stomach, besides many
curiously devised little intestines
and other organs necexsiirv or
gnns, such hk would he hundv to a
living, moving, intelligent creature.
The mouth is at the end of the
shell, near the hinire and adjoining,
the toothed portion of the ov-der'a
pearly covering. This tinv little
apology of a mouth in oval in shape,
and, although hnrdlv viaible to on
unused to making Mich anatomical
examinations, it can he easily dis
covered bv gently pushing a bodkin
or a piece of blunt, smooth wire
along the surface of the locality
mentioned.
When the mouth in at last locat
ed you can thrust your instrument
through between the delicate lip
and a considerable distance toward
the stomach without causing the
oyster the least pain whatever.
From this mouth there is of course
a miniature canal leading to the
stomach. Food pusses from this
canal to the stomach and from the
latter organ into the intestines just
as readily as though the little bi
valve were as large as an elephant
or a rhinoceros.
Remove the shell (this operation
is rather rough on the oyster, but
can be done in a comparatively
painless manner bv an expert), and
you will see the crescent, which lies
just over the so called oyster heart.
This half moon space is the oyster's
pericardium. Within is the true
heart, the pulsations of which can
be readily seen without the aid of a
glass. The heart is verv humanlike,
made of two parts, one of which
receives the blood from the gills
through a network of real blood
vessels; the other portion contracts
and drives the blood out through
the body. The other organs of an
oyster's anatomv are all in their
proper places and perform their
several functions.
Suicide At Suver.
Word reached here Tuesday of
the suicide of Albert J. Paul but '
we have been unable to learn
much of the facts.
It appears from what has come
out that his wife had sued him
for absolute divorce and that his ;
domestic relations may have had
something to do with his rash
act.
