A tree whose name is at once the
memorial both of a man and tragedy
is the Douglas pine, famous for it's
cones. Now, David Doug
las was originally a Scotch lad who
came under the notice Of Sir William
Hooker, the we'll known botanist, and
through his influence was appointed
collector Of rare plants to the Horti-
cultural society He Travelled for the
society in all parts of the world and
was extraordinarily successful in his
finds 1t was he who discovered lu-
pins, eschscholtzias and godetias as
well as many magnificent varieties Of
pine trees, including the one bearing
his name. But when quite young
man he met d tragic fate while plant
hunting. He was in the Sandwich
isles, and there the natives dig deep
pits to catch wild animals, covering
them over with branches and grass to
conceal their openings. On to one of
these treacherous pits Douglas walked
one day when alone and was at once
precipitated to the bottom. No help
was at hand, and he was devoured by

ITO my mind two things strike the
observer wildly when standing close
to wild elephants in their native
is the gigantic size and his own COM

expression of the eye. This organ,
which is surprisingly small in proper
ton to the size of the animal and set
far back in the head, is of pale blue
color much resembling that of wall
eye in a horse. Even when an ele-
plant is at rest his eye has an uncom-
