Figure 2V is a plan ofl the sainewith parts ot theA 'body` oil they toy brokenV away.

M is a pitinan attached at one end tothe .I lower bill K insuitable manner, the said bill being pivoted to the headof the duck substantiallyas shown,-A vThe pitman at its Y other end-takes around a portion N of the rollingsupport arranged eccentrically` to the axis of rotationl thereof of the'idruin and Wheels. Y
21 f l 1,412,015 n cally balanced over theaxis of the wheels,
the string or cord serving to hold the said body free of the surface drawn over in pulling the toy forward. Y
When the cord isv pulled the rolling support, which is preferably fairly heavy, being in fact the heaviest part of the toy,'is rolled in the direction indicated by the dart in Figure 4. That isto say, the inertia of the support together with the windingV of the string or cord upon asmaller circumference than that of the wheels causes the said support to roll towardthe hand pulling the string. The cord or string is thus wound upon the drum E `with the result that the duclrapproaches the bait which enters the bill. In one full rotation, see Figures 4:
and 5, the length of the string or cord wound Y on the drum is much less than the distance traveled by they wheels. Otherwise considered, in a' study ofFigure 3 it will be seen that the baitwhas been moved, in pulling the string, a much less distance than the distance traveled by the duck so that the'latter overtakes the bait.
Of course the relative sizes of the wheels B kand the drum is not important, being mere choice, but these determine the distance the duck must travel before it reaches the bait.
The whole purpose is that in drawing the duck somelittle distance, the bait7 on the string or cord is gradually reached and apparently swallowed. As the said bait is met bythe eye H inside the bill, abruptly ended, whilethe pull on the wheels is stopped while the body due to momentum tilts forward, Figure 3, dotted lines,givine1 the duck the quite realistic appearance of swallowing the' bait. By properly shaping the wheels B the duck, if desired, may be made to have a characteristic manner.
As the duck moves the lower bill K isy y made to open and'shu't due to the connecltion of the pitman therewith and with the ation.
1 claim:
1. A toy comprising a rolling support including a winding-drum, a body representing a living ,organism mounted uponand carried by the support, a flexible member attached at one end to the drum arranged when pulled at its other end to wind upon the said drum and extending from the same through and out of the mouth of the represented organism, and a` bait attached to said member caused to be drawn into said mouth in the wrapping of the cord upon said drum. Y i 2. A toy comprising a body representative of a living organism, a rolling supporttherefor journaled therein including a windingdrum, a cord attached at one end to the drumV and extending to, through and outside theV ,Y

a bait carried on said cord at a point dis` tantv from the said end outside the body, 'the `structure being organized whereby invpulling the cord the drum will take up said cord atA its bait end and cause the body to approach the bait at a rate of speed of travel greater than that of the travel of the cord'and finally overtake and receive the bait into it.'
