One OF the most remarkable opera
lions ever performed on an animal has
been done In the Hanover Geological
Gardens OF Hanover, Germany, on y 'tl1
big female elephant Marty.
The huge earth-shaking beast had
q foot disease that made 1t necessary
to amputate large parts Of both her
hind feet to save her life. AS it was
manifestly impossible to operate by
force, the great animal was anaesthse-
tized. It is believed to be the first
successful anaesthetization Of an ele--
plant on record. z
Marty was presented to the zoo1og-
ical Gardens of Hanover by the broth
ers Janneeke. She is said to be one
OF the wisest elephants in the world.
And equal to her wisdom is her con-
stancy. She loved man once and she
never has forgotten him. 81 la5
The man whom Marty loved was the
elephant keeper of the garden. He
knew her thoroughly and understood
all her moods. In return she gave
him her unquestioning obedience and
affection. There was nothing that he
could do to her that Marty would not
suffer in silence Twice he operated
on her foot and each time she bore 1t

.srHEY CARRIED LUNcH.,

A young Cleveland woman who
teaches a Sunday school class told her
small flock several Sundays ago about
the long journey of the children of
Israel on their way to the Promised
Land. She described the march of the
column through the wilderness, and
told how the priests walked behind the.
vanguard bearing their sacred burdens.
E Last Sunday she thought she would
discover how much of this lesson the
little fellows remembered. To her
3chagrin the first boy she asked remem-
bered nothing about it. g

ness of work was essential and the
surgeons soon had tools going like
lightning. Despite the great sensibil-
ity Of an elephants foot, it was found
that there was so much gristle that
knives could not cut it as fast as de-
sired. So recourse was had at once to
common carpenters chisels and NAL
let's, and they were piled busily. AS
quickly as a portion Of the diseased
flesh had been loosened sufficiently by
the chisels, a common hand-saw was
used to sever it. t52ss
Still the elephant, beyond tWitching
his legs spasmodically once or twice,
had not given any indications of pain
during the two hours consumed by the
cutting and chiseling and saving. But
when the irrigation Of the wound be-

lively a manner that the Enclosure was
vacated in a hurry. The same demon

thoroughly. But If the animal II felt

'If there is an idle man in the
Northwest, he is so from choice" said
the superintendent Of one of the great
railroads, at the beginning of the har-
vest season. He needed two hundred
men for construction work. and had
sought them all the way from Chicago
to Vancouver. About that time press
dispatches told how tramps who Gus
tomarily wander over the west were
making a frantic exodus eastward.
This fact proves that the demand for
labor was urgent. Perhaps it proves
also that the west has begun to act
upon st. Pauls wise command that if
any will not work, neither shall he eat.
