THE ELEPHANT Decentralization
cradle interest attaches to question which
has just been put by Sheffield worker in
ivory. He desires to know whether elephants
shed their tusks, as, If not, upward of one
thousand two hundred aud eighty of these
magnificent beasts must have been killed To
supply bis manafactory alone with the ivory
used last year. The answer to his query is,
unfortunately, that before the tusks can be
obtained an elephant must be slaughtered,
and herein is found a subject for very serious
reflection. Numerous still in Ceylon, though
by no means as plentiful as they were few
years ago, and without doubt existing ALSO in
large numbers in certain parts of Africa, The
elephant Is, however, rapidly disappearing
AS beast of burden be is unriyaled Ia
strength, endurance and intelligence, and the
services he renders in times of war as well az
peace, would alone more than reward great
effort on his behalf Quite apart from the
fact that, when he goes the supply Of ivory
ceases too, there is also the grave considera.
ton of his loss as means of locomotion and
transport. 1t is we'll known that he does moi
breed in captivity, and it is, therefore, only
in wild state that the species can be pre-
served. The destruction of more than twelve
hundred of his kind for one knife making
firm implies a huge and serious waste.

MISCELLANY.

Power OF THE PLre HAT.-The plug
hat Is virtually sort of social guarantee for
the preservation of peace and order. He who
puts one on has given hostage to the COM
munity for his good behavior. The wearer of
n plug bat must move with certain sedate-
ness and propriety. He cannot run, or jump,
or romp, or get INTO a fight except at the
peril of his bead gear. All the hidden infiu
ences of the beaver tend toward responsibility.
lie who wears one is obliged to keep the rest
of his body ia decent trim, that there may be
no incongruity between head and body. He
is apt to become thoughtful through the ne
cessity of watching the sky whenever he goes
out. The chances are that he will buy an
umbrella, which is another guarantee for good
behavior, and the care of hat and umbrella
perpetual and exacting as 1t must ever be-
adds to the sweetness of bis character. The
man who wears plug hat naturally takes to
the society of woman, with all its elevating
tendencies. He cannot go hunting or fishing
without abandoning his beloved hat, but in
the moderate enjoyment of croquet and lawn
tennis he may sport his beaver with impunity.
In other words, the constant use of plug hat
makes a man composed in manner, quiet
gentlemanly in conduct, and the champion Of
the ladies'. The inevitable result is prosper
ity, marriage aad church membership. 49,
