PURPOSE IN ANIMALS.
Instances That illustrate Deliberi
alton with Which They some
times Act.

An amusing incident, which show
that animals are subject to feelin.
very like those which occasionally ri
fle the bosoms of men, occurred son
little time ago at the Jardin des Plant,
in Paris, says Youths Companion.
A large elephant, formerly the ceI
ter Of attraction, found himself SUI
planted in public favor by new arriva
"a young camel. The camel was III
latest acquisition, and very natural
engaged the attention of visitors.
The elephant for long time Shove,
signs of dissatisfaction, and at last il
jealousy reached point where it mus
find expression. When the usual crow
gathered about the camel, the elephan
prepared for action. 1t filed its trun,
with water, and with deliberate air
discharged the water all over the pee
pie who stood hooking at the bab'
camel.
This method of throwing cold waite
upon the admirers of a rival brought
laugh even from its victims.
Equally wise in making its caEu,a
tions was cat that chose a pcculia
spot for bed. Comfort was the cat
object, and the chosen spot did no
seem to be calculated to afford it. tn,
cat was found fast asleep in larg,

seemed to be a very muddy path,

The Automatic Cow.

The newest Industrial enterprise to
be projected In Columbus is a factory
for the manufacture of automatic cows
mild-eyed, stolld-looking bovlnes, with
no tendency to bad temper, that give
cold refreshing milk by the simple
pressure of button.
One OF these mechanical animals is
soon to be placed in local park,
where, mounted upon pedestal, be-
Meath the branches of a forest tree,
thirsty visitors may quench their
thirst in milk fresh from the cow
for the pittance of five pennies. The
rest Of the herd, and the projectors
say 1t will eventually number into the
thousands, is to be distributed to other
places of public amusement through
out the country.
To Edward Kelgler,of Franklin ave-
nue., belongs the credit for having con-
ceived the unique idea. In a building
on Franklin avenue Hahn & Lind, un-
der Mr.. Keigler's supervision, have
built for him the first of the herd. 1t
locks for all the world like it is alive,
save for the absence of expression
from the eyes. In the top, near the
place where the backbone ought to be,
there is compartment for ice, and be-
low is anobher for milk and butter
milk, for these cows are to give all
sorts and combinations of the lacteal
fluid.
Connected with the milk cans are a
series of rubber tubes, which find an
outlet in the teats. Then, by the pay
ment a nickel, the customer Is entit-
led to press a button, and the COW
does the rest, which is to fill a big
tumbler full of rick milk, or butter
milk, as may be preferred.
Mr. Keigler said on Monday that he
has already booked a number of orders
for other cities, and that the industry
promises big returns.--State journal.
