touch of a woman's hand, and the stamp
or his feet or a blow from that same
gentle trunk is as powerful as that from
a steam-hammer. The Government
uses them chiefly in the public works
department, where they are employed
in moving huge blocks of stone, where
It would be expensive and, in fact, i'm.
possible to use steam-engines. They
have been known to drag up huge
blocks of stone, shove them into posi-
ton, and then sway slowly backward,
and, If the stone was not perfectly right
ly placed, give it push, either to the
right or to the left, until it was.
A public works department man once
told me that he was experimenting the
unloading of lot of steel tubing. at
which elephants were engaged. The
tubing had been oiled to prevent rust,
and when the elephant took the first
piece up in his trunk it slipped on ac-
count of the oil. He took it up again
with the same result, and finally he
seemed to understand it. and, pushing
it with his foot to where there was some
sand, he rolled il over and over until the
sand stuck to it and prevented it Slip
ping, when he took it Nup and triumph
antly carried it.
Stories of the sagacity of the elephant
might be told ad infnitunl. 1t is no
doubt shame to shoot them except
when they are "rogues." When they
are that, it resolves itself into ques-
ton of q You kill the elephant, or the
elephant will kill you."-C Cincinnati

Hints AbOut Studying Languages.

Suppose the language to be acquired
is German. A faithful translation i'm
German of some English or American
novel should be selected. With this and
the original open before him, with a
dictionary and grammar for reference,
the student is prepared for work A
vivid story, in Which there is much ac-
ton and conversation, is hest suited to
the purpose. One should then proceed.
as best he can, To read the German.
Of course, at the start he will have to.
refer to the English original for the
meaning of every word; and he will
have much difficulty. Until he be.
comes familiar with the commonest
words and the construction of SEN
fences he will have to use the diction-
airy great deal, as he will at first not
be able to tell which word in the original
corresponds to any particular word in
the translation. But after very short
time this difficulty will cease to be con-
siderable, and with the English open
before him he will proceed rapidly, and
many of the words he meets on one
page he will meet again on the next,
and the chances are that after reading
attentively page or two he will have
learned the meanings of q
number of words; and this
merely by repeated contact without
special effort; for he need not dwell on
each sentence till he has committed all
the words to memory, but only know,
for the time, their meaning and read far
Their. In this way he will be able to go
over so much ground that, without the
fatiguing effort to memorize abstractly
a certain number of words, he will in
the course of his hours or evenings
work make considerable addition to
his foreign vocabulary. Having chosen
for reading the translation in German
of an English book he will see how the
thoughts as he would think them are
rendered into the foreign language.
This will be more conducive to progress
in learning to speak the language than
would be the reading of an original
German book. Reading a novel, he
viii soon become interested in the story;
and as he pictures in his mind the Incl
dents about which he is reading, the
words will be connected with the OBJ
iects or actions they signify. and in this
is great advantage over the common
method of committing isolated words to
memory, and of translating dsconnect-
ed sentences.-T Continent.

method. as the only one ever adopted,
with its fragmentary result as the only
good ever realized. When those who
know the Bible only in this way are
confronted by some question of hostile
criticism, they are at a stand. They
know only here and there portion Of
this great book, and even this perhaps
so imperfectly that, having no answei

thrown into perplexities, perhaps into

every minister can do this. Yet surely
something of the careful cxpositor's
way of work may be adopted by the
minister, in his private study and ina
his preaching, while he may, as re-
CARDS his people, press them with the
truth thasto know something about :
few detached passages of the Bible is
not to know the Bible. He can also urge

A Good Storr.

In The village of W liveda man
who had once been Judge of the coun-
ty, and was known all over it by the
Bame of Judge L. He kept store and
saw-Dlill, and was always sure to have
The best of bargain on his side, by
which means he had gained an ample
competency, and some did not hesitate
to call him 80 the biggest rascal in the
world" He was very conceited withal,
and used TO delight to brag of his bust
ness capacity whenever any one was
near to listen. One rainy day. as quite
a number were seated around the stove
in the store,' be began, as usual, TO tell
his great bargains, and at last wound
up with the expression, Nobody has
never cheated me, nor they can't
neither.
Judge" said an old man of the
company, I've cheated you morn you
ever did me-"
"How SOP" asked the Judge.
IF you'll promise you won't go to
law about it, nor do nothing, I'll tell, OF
else won't; you are too much Of law
character for me-"
LETS hear! let's. heart" cried half a
dozen voices.
I'll promise" said the Judge, "and
treat in the bargain. -
well, do you remember that wagon
you robbed me out OFF,
Il never robbed you of any wagon, I"
exclaimed the Judge; Il only got the
best of bargain. "
well, ] made up my mind to have it
back, and
You never did, Interrupted the cute
Judge.
"Well, you see. Judge, sold you one
day very nice pine log, and bargained
with you for lot more. Well, that log
| stole off your pile, down by your mill.
the night before, and the next day
sold it 10 you. The next night l drew
It back home, and sold it to you the
next day; and so | kept on until YOU
bought your own log of me twenty-seven
times"
THAT is falser' exclaimed the infu-
rated Judge, running to his books and
examining his log accounts; "you never
sold us twentv-seven logs of the same
measurement.
81 know it" said the vender in logs;
"by drawing it back and forth the ends
wore off until it was oniy ten feet long
just fourteen shorter than the first
time brought it-and when it got so
short | drew it home again and worked
il up into shingles. and then I concluded
had got my wagon back and slowed
away in my poeket-book.
The exclamation of the Judge was
drowned in the shouts of the bystanders,
and the log-drawer found the door
without the promised treat. And to
see a man mad you have only to ask the
Judge if he ever was robbed. The
