One of the leading notaries of Par

about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and
was followed by thfrty-two others in

soon Allied to Inconvenience by the
eager and eXpectant hunchbacks.
These sat about on the tables. as well
as on the yhairs, and the notary and
his assistants were utterly nonpfussed.
They tried, but in vain, TO assure the
hunchhacks that an immense practical
joke had been played and that the day
was the first of April. The persons

pretends indifference to all of them,
they become violently jealous.
After much OF this pretty by-play
she chooses the biggest elephant for
her partner. AS he leads her to the
center of the ring the JOY he manifests
is comical.
His defeated rivals retire to the edge
OF the ring, appear to consult, and,
when the great elephants back is turn

SIS they shake the ground with angry
stampings.

if to emphasize how gentle he has been
and TO prove his mighty strength, he
seizes her around the waist with his
trunk, raises her and, seating her on
his broad back. marches around the
ring, footing his triumph. Again he
circles her form with his trunk and,
balancing her with incest care, carries
her recumbent and posturing.
When he releases her she coquettish
ly approaches the other two elephants
and with soft words and caresses tries
to appease their jealous ill temper.
They sulk for a while then relent, and
beg her pardon with many deep bows.
