flint instruments on stone, ivory
or the horns of reindeer sketchy
outlines of mammoths. one of
which, inCised upon a fragment
of a tusk of the huge beast
itself, is so we'll done as to
awaken question with regard to
the authenticity of the relic on
the part of those who do not
know its history.
North America, as far south
as Philadelphia, once swarmed
with mainmoths. The big, woolly
beasts went in droves like the
bison, their successors, when
there were no stock-raisers to
corral. no pot-hunters with re-
peating rifles TO slaughter, nor
enterprising showmen TO capture
them for exhibition. 1t is posi-
bic, indeed quite probable, that
at least two species of elephants,
the mammoth and the Column
bian elephants, as we'll as three
species Of the mastodon, we're
seen and hunted by primeval
man in America. Though we
possess no such tangible evil
dence Of the fact as that afforded
by bits of bone decorated with
sketches Of the beast. we have in
default of this the folklore of
the Red-man. who remembers
them as a race, calls their re-

about eighteen years old.
Whoever has looked inside Of an elephants mouth
has seen strange sight. Elephants, you know,
haven got any front teeth they never eat flesh or
any food that needs tearing apart Eight teeth are all
they have or leastWse all you in their jaws
two above and two below on each side big yellow
grinders wide mans hand and maybe foot

Over them hay or fodder IS stuffed by the queerest
ugliest tongue in the whole animal kingdom tongue
that IS literally hung at both ends having power
70 move except N the middle where 1t shifts back
and forard, bending up against the roof Of the big
mouth like great big wrinkling, pink eel snake.
There's nothing stranger than the working OF an
elephants tongue unless its his breathing apparatus

in ancient times. and that the great spirit killed
them all lest they should increase and multiply and
become so powerful as destroy every other living
creature reason for ending the existence Of race
which if applied 10 own, would. l fear, appear
more conclusive than when employed explain the
destruction of any other upon the face Of the earth
Another argument for believing that the mammoth
and man lived together in North America is the evi-
dence Of the comparatively fresh specimens Of the
animals that have been discovered II is not TO be
expected in comparatively climate, that
find ancient American elephant in per
feet state Of preservation that At ST Petersburg

Barton, the American naturalist. that in 76I the
Indians found five Carcasses OF immense beasts with
very long noses over their mouths.

1887 in a small swamp exposed in extending street

been turned up IN an JISter-C County swamp
But perhaps the best evidence TO anyone
skilled in collecting the remains OF extinct
animals, OF the recent disappearance Of the
mastodon from the face of the earth is the
comparatively Slight depth beneath it that
his bones are almost always found.
We must look TO Alaska however as the
old world does to Siberia, for perfect and
complete specimens of the mammoth pre-
served entire by amending frost. The re-
mains Of one were recently discovered on
the Yukon River with masses of fat so fresh
as 10 serve the natives to grease their boats
with. As lately as last March we had word
from Seattle, Washington of the discovery
of the complete form Of a mastodon at
Hillside, on Quartz Creek, Alaska It was
embedded thirty-eight feet in the earth and
the aid of steam thawing plant was found
necessary in unearthing the immense animal.
The hair and hide of the beast were in
state of perfect preservation, although the
flesh was somewhat decomposed and the
great tusks, which remained fastened to the
skull, were in a good condition.
In view of this and of somewhat similar
finds made lately it becomes possible to
hope that one or two, perhaps more, mounted
specimens of prehistoric American elephants
as perfect as that of the Siberian mammoth

or some of our State collections
The fact IS perhaps worth mentioning
here that although the word is universally

But elephants don't have the trouble
with all their teeth that We sometimes have
with single one. They never want any
dentists. Such a thing as an elephant hav-
ing the toothache or a decayed grinder is
never known"
Elephants teeth are remarkable in an
other way, for paleontologist has only 10

some species Of the animal that has been
extinct for thousands of years, and he can,
II most Instances, reconstruct the form
and describe the habits and the home Of
the pachydern 20 which it belonged If. on
the contrary. the tooth Of a carnivore IS
shown 70 him he can conclude at once that it
belonged 10 a fiesh-eating animal but
whether Il came from a jaw Of a leopard,
puma jaguar or a cheetah he would find
IL impossible 10 decide. nor could he easily
distinguish the tooth Of dog from that Of
a wolf or jaclal, OF in some cases that Of
