Big stories como from big lands

dent which is we'll known to have
occurred several years ago, when
the railway from Maras to Shoranore
on the Malabar coast, was first open
ed out for regular traflice, This
time, however, the sceno is laid on
a railway in India.
As train was proceeding at n fair
speed the engine driver noticed q
herd OF elephants advancing towards
him along the line. He Immediately
sounded the whistle, and his assis-
tant put on the brake, la an in-
stant, however, they were in the
herd. The leading elephant, huge
tusker, was apparently only enrage d
by the whistle, and charged the adj
vancing train. There was tremen-
dous concussion, the elephant was
knocked off to one side, mutilated
the train, after q series Of violent
jolts which nearly terew it off the
line, came to q standstill against the
bodies OF two other animals of the
heard. There was not q great deal
OF damage done, but the passengers
we're much frightened, and the en-
gine was considerably battered about
the front. .......
The tusker was despatched by an
English gentleman who was travelling
in the train, and his long tusks secur
cd after which the train proceeded on
its journey, The remainder Of the
herd scampered away and turned
when about q mile off an knoll,
looking in dazed stupid kind Of
way at the train as it moved of.

DREssIsa THE IIAIR.-There are
some points in the dressing Of the
hair which all women should under-
stand. The present universal fash-
ion of covering the forehead with a
fringe of hair or small curls is q
wrong to the majority. They may
twirl and twine over small, delicate,
fair countenances but nobler faces
want a smooth expanse of forehead,
and in the fashionable ''idiot fringe"
we lose all tho upper lights Of the
countenance. Dark compilations, too
always require masses OF hair lying
languidly in grand easy forms or
shining coils black hair is spoiled
by 'frizzing.
In order to bring out the intellec.
tuality Of any face the hair should be
swept back aud raised high. The
face lights as the brow uncovers, but
care must be taken not to draw the
hair too tight aud rigid all that is
necessary il to show that exquisite
line along the roots whero the skin
is soft and fair and the coloring fresh
and tender even in old age. The
covered forehead is OF the earth
earthly all the Delilahs Of every
age and country affect it, and TO
prove its effect you have only to take
any frail pictured beauty and in i'm
agination sweep the forehead clear
and turn up the flowing curls into
smooth, tidy coils, and the woman
look reformed. Children and young
girls may wear unbound hair, but in
woman It looks untidy-and worse
