In st. Nicholas +. Fitz Roy Dixon
tells Of baby elephant that was cap
tured by friends of his in Ceylon, after
the death of its mother. Mr. Dixon says:
When Sidney was first brought over,
virtually in order that she might be
fed, the question naturally arose as to
how she would take her nourishment.
OF course the proper way for an adult
elephant Ia take in water is by means
of the trunk, which is furnished with
two tubes running its whole length
But when II bowl of milk was placed
before the baby elephant she did not
know what TO do with it. She dipped
the tip of her trunk into it, and the
lockers on thought that there would be
no difficulty about her drinking at all.
since she recognized the scent of the
nourishment she had been accustomed
to. But she was quite at loss and set
up roar which seemed quite natural
under the circumstances. Then some
one suggested pouring it down her
throat from bottle, and this was &C.
cordingly tried, and after one or two in
etfectual attempts she understood
She was half starved when this was
done, for she had had nothing to eat
since the death of her mother, and her
delight ut being fed was most amusing.
The only trouble was that it was diff
cult to satisfy her, and it was feared
that the change of diet would disagree
with her. but fortunately it had no i'll
effect

no botica, no drugs, not even water,

who had loved him best, could die with
him.
Months after, the plague extinct. Two
skeletons were found in the patio of the
little cottage. One was identified as that
of Harry Hastings, NJ. E., which was
fortunate for his widow in England.
Otherwise she could not have claimed
the life insurance policies. But they
were paid, and the little widow invest
ed quite large sum in pretty, black
Grape gowns And she was so fair and
childish and innocent and helpless in
her black robes of bereavement that an
other man, rich one, proposed for her
and married her. She lives comfortably
and at ease in beautiful English home.
So perhaps she is not to be pitied after
all.
And i'll the Campo Santo on the hill
in Guanajuato there is IA grave where
lie together two skeletons, those of
Harry Hastings and the unknown wom-
an who had died with him. They had
been 30 buried to save time. The head

simply, Henry Hastings, aged 81. So
the erstwhile widow is not shocked by
the knowledge that Dolores lies there
