Elephants Tooth Drawn.

Two mules did some effective dentistry in
the mouth of Brazil, an elephant, on the rail
road line to Columbus, four miles from Lexing
tom. Ky., recently. The mules were called in
after a regularly qualified dentist, assisted by
a veterinarian and two circus hands, had
signally failed to relieve the elephant of a
severe attack of toothache.
Brazil stands u feet high. and is the prize
pachyderm of the Jack Robinson circus.
The show was on the way from this city to
Columbus, when Brazil began to thrash around
her car. One side of the car was shattered
before the fury of the elephant was discovered
and the train brought to standstill.
A diagnosis was quickly and easily made.
When the keeper approached Brazil threw up
her trunk and opened her mouth, aud the man,
SHINING his head into the opening, saw a big
cavity in a tooth. Brazil was roped and thrown
ON her side, dentist from nearby town
volunteered to pull the tooth, and the circus
folk went into kinks while he tried his hand
with his own little instruments. The circus
veterinarian then brought forth huge pair OF
forceps, and two men laid hold ofeach handle.
The tooth stuck fast, and the men we're IN de-

had pair of 'hefty mules. y
"Where are they?" asked the veterinarian,
and the farmer pointed TO team OF tpromlsing-
looking, long. cared bays in the road. Forth
with work began for the great operation.
Stakes were driven into the ground to brace
the elephants head. A block and tackle were
attached to the giant forceps, and when the
veterinarian shouted "All readyi'' the farmer
said .'Get upr' There was terrific straining
for few minutes. then the mules stumbled
forward as the tooth suddenly came forth.
Brazil wore subdued but eontented look after
the operation, and went quietly back to her
