THE ELEPHANT KNOWS.

He Displays Remarkable Intelligence In
His Native VIlds.
Much interest has been taken lately
in performing elephants. 1t is certain
ly interesting to see such huge, clumsy
animals ride bicycles or play sccsaw
with apparent enjoyment. In the wild
state elephants display remarkable in
telligcnce. Sir Samuel Baker, whose
delightful books on Ceylon should be
read by every boy who likes tales of adj
venture, says that in spite of the great
weight Of the elephant and the fact
that they live in countries where human
life and the lives of domestic animals
are frequently lost in marshes, no Gle
plant was ever found stuck i'm the mud
Even the youngest know enough to
avoid such places. In view Of the many
stories told in his books Of the sngacity
Of these animals, the following from an
old paper docs not seem improbable:

An elephant, walking by the side Of
the carriage, saw the danger, and in
stontly, without any order from his
keeper, lifted the wheel from the
ground, leaving the fallen man unin-
jured.

little at the beginning Of her walk.
There was no snow, but the heavy hoar-
frost glistened on the sidewalks, and
the air was sharp.
Old Mrs. Bean was coming out OF
the great kitchen. and when her friend
wished her a merry Christmas, she
shook her head.
There amt nobody to make 1t merry
for me-" she said.
II wish you a happy Christmas!"
said Miss Debby again. "I've come on

Well, that is present."
Now I'm goin'. because I can come
an set an talk with you any day. and
today I've got Christmas work" and
off Miss Debby went to the heart of
the town again.
Christmas was on Tuesday that year,
and she opened the door of a little
house. where a tired-looking young
woman stood by an ironing-table, and
looked at her with surprise. why,
Miss Gaines!" she exclaimed, where
are you going SO early?"
Il wish you a happy Christmas!"

BY this time Miss Debby had crossed

lonely old mistress Of the house usually
sat- She hesitated a moment before she
could speak.

said. Its me. Mrs. Wallis-Debby

why Miss Debby!" and there was
something in the tone of this hostess
which told at once that she was glad to
see a friend. "Why. Miss Debby!
Come and sit down in the chair by me!
I don't doubt you have been trotting
about all day." and Mrs. Wallis held out
warm, affectionate hand.

pany; this IL the first Christmas in all
my life that l have happened to spend

Miss Debby might not have done It
without thinking, by daylight. but she
drew q little nearer and took hold Of
Mrs. Walliss hand.
You must have had a great many
lovely things to remember" she said
softly. But anybody can't help feel
ing lonesome; I know how tits. Every
body misses somebody the world over.
There was all Of us together once at
home, and I'm kind of sparrow on the

land one Of the friends I've known
longest; and they went on with much
pleasant talk of both the old days and
the present time. and Mrs. Wallis gave
Miss Debby a cup of tea, and they had
a happy little feast together there in the
library before the humble, loving
hearted guest went away, leaving peace
and good will once more in a lonely and
troubled heart.
She stopped here and there at the
houses of other friends. forgetting In
her happiness that she was empty
handed on Christmas day, and every
where she left q new feeling of friend
illness and pleasant kindness. AT one
house she comforted a crying child by
mending his Christmas top, and at an

wear. She was like good angel as she
sat there. sewing and smiling and max.
ing everybody's mind at ease.
1t was late In the evening when this
was done, and she had had a long day
but she stopped, with great bravery, and
asked to see the minister. and told him
how thankful she was for his sermon
on Sunday and wished him n happy
Christmas. The minister had been
little discouraged for some reasons, as
ministers often are in spite Of every
thing, and even some great kindnesses
in the shape of welcome presents from
his friends did not cheer him half &c
much as the sincerity and affection OF
Miss Debby's visit. And he watched
the little figure go down the street with
tears in his eyes. So few people could
forget themselves to remember others
as this dear parishioner could; 1t was
worth living for. II one could some
times help and refresh those who are
the true helpers; and so he went back to
his work in the study, feeling like a
better and buster man than when he
had left 1t.
So Miss Debby came back to her little
home again. The fire was out and il
was all dark, but she went straight to
her small rocking chair by the window
and sat down to rest, and to thank the
Lord for such happy day. And though
her purse was empty her heart was full
and she had left a little pleasure behind
her all along the way.
Presently she lighted her lamp. and
then she saw on the table a great pack
age and q note beside 1t: and the note
was from Mrs Rivers.
Something you said the other day."
Miss Debby read, made me feel differ
emily about Christmas from what ever
have before, and 1 am going to try to
make as many people happy as I can.
And you must believe that my heart
goes with these presents that / send to
you. They are some Of my own things
that liked, and wanted to share with
you, and send them with love-"
Miss Debby's face shone with Joy.
She had always liked Mrs. Rivers, but
she had pitied her little; and now the
note made her feel as II she had found
a new friend and made her happy with
out knowing II. And so Miss Debbys
Christmas came to happy end.
