OrIdIN OF osrp1Na mn EIEpuANT About

ORIGIN OF ''SEEING THE ELEpIIANT.--About thirty years ago, at one of the theatcrs, a pageant was in rehearsal, in which it was necessary Q have an elephant. No elephant was to be had. The "wild beast" were all travelling, and the property man, manager and 'stago director almost had fits when they thought Of it. Days passed in the hopeless task of trying to secure one, but at last ln- genuity triumphed, and the elephant was made to order of wood skins, paint and var- nish. Thus far tho matter was very well, but as yet they found no means to make the com bination travel. Here, again, the manager, stage director and property man struck outs and two "broths" wore duely installed as legs. Ned Cox, one of the true genuine sb'hoys,' held the responsible position of fore legs, and for several nights played that heavy part to the entire satisfaction Of the managers and the delight of tic audience. The part however was a very tedious one, as the elephant was obliged to be on the stage for about an hour, and Ned was rather too fond of the bottle to remain without 'swetting his whistle, so he set his wits to work to find way to Garry wee drop with him. The eyes of the elephant being made of two porter bottles, with sthe neck in, Ned conceived the brilliant idea of filling them with good stuff This he fully carriedout, and elated with success, he willingly undertook to r play lore legs again.
 Night came on, the theatcr was densely crowded, the music was played in the sweetest strains, tho curtain arose and the play began Ned and the sshind legs' marched upon tho stage. The elephant was greeted with round after round of applause; the decoration and trapping were gorgeous, Theelephant and the prince upon his back were loudly cheerea. The play proceeded-The elephant was marched round and round upon the stage
 The fore legs got dry, withdrew one of the corks and treated the hind legs, and then drank the health of the audiencoin bumper of genuine, elephant-eye whskey, a brand, till then, unknown. The concluding march was to be made-thc signal was given, and the fore legs went staggering to the front of the stage The conductor pulled the elephants ear to the right--the fore legs staggered to the I'left. The foot-lig ghts obstructed the way, and he raised his foot and stepped into the or chestra Down went the fore legs on the leaders, fiddle over of course, turned the elephant sending the prince and the hind legs into the middle of the pit The managers stood horror-struck--th princes and hind legs lay confounded, the boxes in convulsion, the actors choking with laughter, and poor Ned, casting one look, a strange blending of drunkenness, grief and laughter at the scene. fed hastily out of the theater, closely followed by the leader with the wreck of his fiddle, performing various cut and thrust motions ill the air. The curtain dropped on ascene behind the scenes No more pageant-no more fore legs-eycry body held their sides. Music. actors, pit, boxes and gallery rushed from the theater, shrieking between every breath ''Haye you seen the elephant ?''.

THELApIEs' MAN.--By his air and gait, the ultra-fashionable style of his clothing, the killing curl of his moustache, the 'look and die' expressions of his smpering face, his stream of small talk, and sundry other signs and tokens ofa plethora ofyanity and lack of soul and brain, you may distinguish at q rlanee Uno individual who plumes himself 8
 .ladesman." His beilStln his own irrespon- sbility is written all over him And to say the truth your ladies men have some grounds for their self -conceit It is indubitabe that girls do some times fall in love, or who suppose they love, fellows who look as if they had walked out of tailor's fashion plates--ereature that by the aid of the '.make up" of human popin- jays, have been converted into superb exam ples of what art can affect in the way of giving man an unmanly appearance. The woman who marries one of these huttcrers is to be pitied ; for if she has any glimering of common sense and heart under her bodice, she will soon discover that her dainty husband has no more of mans spirit in him than an autom- atic figure on q Savoyard'ss hand organ. But woman worth true mans love is never caught by such a specimen of ornamental hollow-ware A sensible woman is, in fact, terror to 'sladies men," for they arc aware that her penetrating eye looks through them, and sounds the depth of their emptiness.
 She knows the man indeed from the trumpery counterfeit and has no touch of the mackerel propensity to jump at fiashy bait, in her wholesome composition. The ladies man should be permitted to live and die bachelor.
 His vocation is to dangle after the sex, to talk soft nonsense, to carry shawls and fans, to as tonish boarding school misses, to kindle love flames as evanescept and harmless as the tizz of Q squib. If, however, he must needs be- come a Benedict let him be yoked with some vain and silly firt, his natural counterpart. l So shall the law of fitness not be outraged.

TIE PRESENCE OF Cop The habitual con viction of the presence of God is the sovereign remedy in temptations; it Supports, it con- soles, 1t cams us.
 We must not be surprised that we are tempted. We are placed here to be proved by temptations Everything is temptahonsto us. Crosses irritate our pride, and prosperity flat ters it our life is continual warfare, but Jesus Christ combats with us. We must let temptations, like tempest, beat upon our heads and still move on; like traveller sur prised on the way by storm, who wraps his cloak about him, and goes on his journey, in spite of all the opposing clements.
 In certain sense, there is little to do in doing the will of God. Still it is true that it is doing great work, because itmust be with out any reserve. This spirit enters the secret Holdings of our hearts, and even the most up right affections and the most necessary at tachments, must be regulated by his will {; but it is not the multitude of hard duties, it is not restraint and contention, that advance us in our christian course. On the contrary it is the yielding of our will, without restriction and without choice, to tread cheerfully every day in the path in which Providence leads us, to seek nothing, to see our duty in the present moment, to trust all else without reserve to the will and power of God. Let us pray to ouI Heavenly Father that cur will may be swal- lowed up in His Fenelon.

DORSEY SELF RAKE.

This valuable patent having been bought by
the Syracuse Self Raker Co.." and several
valuable improvements added to it by years of
experiment, is now known as the SYRACUSE
SELF RAKER,'' and after an experience of
three harvests in experimenting ourselves in
all kinds OF grain from the shortest oats and
barley to the tallest rye, and on the toughest
ground and steepest side hill, we have found
the "Syracuse Self Raker" infallible in work
as well as the most simple and convenient of
any Rake in existence. There are several Self
Raking machines in the market, which without
any legal right to use the Dorsey, embrace its
leading principles with slight variations in con-
regulating the size OF the bundle and adapting
it to all conditions of grain, heavy and light,
making it necessary in almost every case to
either double or divide bundles, which is both
expensive and troublesome
