A novel and ingenious method of capturing wild ducks is described in the Wide World Magazine, by Mr. W. E. Pedley, who witnessed the feat while on a hunting trip in In- dia. In his party was a lithe, ac- tive-looking native lad, who pro- fessed to be able to swim under water into the midat of a flock of wild fowl, and catch the birds in his naked hands. He was given an opportunity to show his skill in a quiet lagoon near the camp. A gentle sunset breeze was blow- ing, says Mr. Pedley, -when we silently forced our punt into the rushes about 20 yards from where a flock of duck -were busily engag- ed in diving for wild celery root*. Immediately the youth began his simple preparations. He put on a stout leather belt with a rawhide thong that passed through holes, and formed a succession of like a cartridge-belt.

Next, he drew from his bundle what looked like a decoy duck cut off at the water-line, or just below it. Turning it over, ho showed us that it was simply the skin of a duck, with beautifully bluffed head and ne-ck, but quite hollow inside. The main frame consisted of a strip of split bamboo, bent into the shape of a long, narrow horseshoe. A little crost-bar was stKiurely ties on with KinrwH about an inch and a half from the heel end of the shoe. The skin was sewn with sinews to the main horseshoo-bhaped frame, but under tho tail it was entirely cut away, so AS to leave an open space. on the water, it looked like a 'badly nuitie decoy, because the head and neck, being atuffed. were unduly heavy, and th bird rodo with its ha<l tapped forward and its tail absurdly cocked up. TIio youth slipped into the water, mul, turning on his back, took the ittle cross-bar between his teeth. HI> then lay floating quietly, tho x>dy of tlie decoy covering his nose, eyes, mouth and chin. The water was clear, and we could easily sec. lim under tho nurfaco. At once we saw \viiy the skin of the docoy was cut away undor the tail. It was to enable him to see out.
