THE ELEPHANT FLEET.

How II is Used by the British Gov
eminent In India.
Its elephant feet is one of the stran-
gest and most deadly departments
maintained by the British government
in India. 1t is a large feet Of coast
ing steamers specially built for the
transport Of elephants. midas popu-
lation is one-fifth that Of the entire
globe. All these people use elephants.
They use them for draft work and for
tiger hunting, and In the arenas Of the
native states they even pit them
against one another and against wild
beasts. The elephant feet transfers
the animals from Dacca, the trapping
and training headquarters, to the va
rious districts whence comes the de-
mand.
To get an elephant aboard ship is q
difficult and dangerous task. The anil
NAL must wade through the surf to
stout raft, and this unknown surf, 80
white and tumultuous, often terrifies
and maddens him. If In his fury be
slaughters a mahout or two he cannot
be greatly blamed. Once on the raft,
his legs are tied 10 pegs, and the slow
sail to the ship is uneventful. But
now a great band must be arranged
under the elephants belly, and a crane
must hoist him up some twenty or
thirty feet to the deck. Here again
the elephant cannot be set down as In

unprecedented aerial journey, he muir

A TRUTHFUL ASSERTION

The worst habit that boys can
fall into is that of loafing around
on the streets at night. 1t is then
they cast their lot in slippery places
when at any moment they are likely
to fall from grace. All good and
noble lessons Taught them by their
mothers are there counteracted and
quilted. They learn nothing that
is good but everything bad. The
boys who spend their evenings in
the sacred precincts of home with
good books for their companions
are the future hope of this repub-
lie; they will fill our legislature
and congressional halls, and sit i'll
judgement upon men and measures,
while the boys who run the streets
will fill onr penitentiarles, aims
houses and luna.ic asylums. Par
ents who are responsible for these
broken laws of decency will have
broken hearts and bowed down
heads in the awakening years that
will inevitably follow.
HOLIDAY FOR THE WIFE.
Give your wife a vacation. She
needs one. Little cares are harder
to bear than great responsibilities
and she has many more cares than
her husband and sometimes as
great responsibilities. When your
work is done you can lock it up in
your Office and put the KEY in your
pocket. But she never locks her
work up till sleep comes and turns
the key upon it. A woman's work
is never done. And modern life
has increased and intensified it.
Cares have multiplied faster than
conveniepces. Life is more complex
its demands are greater and more
numerous, society more exacting
Who needs vacation if she does
not? And she cannot get it at home
The more quiet and restful thu
home is to you the more evidenc'
that it is a care if not burden t.
her. A housekeeper can no NOR
take a vacation in her home thai
a merchant in his counting house
Even though her absence occasion
inconvenience, give her an occa
sional vacation.

law, and to the credit of most
Americans, be it said that the
mother-in-law is generally the reci-
pient of filial affection second
only to that rendered to ones own
mother. Every man almost looks
upon his mother as being worthy
of the highest seat in heaven, and
blessed indeed is he land there are
many such men) who can in his
heart feel that his mother-in-law
is entitled to seat by her side.

holds good in nine cases out of ten
and certainly that makes it a pref
ty good one. 1t would be well for
every young man, who is about to
take upon himself the import
ant and happy relation of son-in-
law, to write the above rule on the
tablet of his memory, and redouble
the joys and tighten the sorrows OF
life by so condu :ting himself as to
be, at once and for all time, dsserv.

of the mother OF the wife of his
bosom.
THE DIFFERENCE

He does not see anything to apollo

evenly developed nature and well
balanced mind; no fault to find

liberal and considerate mortal eve

IN THE TEETH OF HURRICANE.

Doubtless there were may puzzled readers when a deep-sea skipper rolled into this harbor a few days ago and reported that his ship had been be- lated by. gale which had piped up to force To-" Force To-" it was ex plained, meant something like a hurri- cane.
 It is a term borrowed from the Beau fort scale, a scheme of wind measure ments devised by the British admiral Beaufort before the 1days of ocean going steam. Force was calm, force light breeze, and so on up the hurricane velocity.
 Perhaps. too, the Beaufort scale may give a clew to those who have been wondering for some time at the title Of popular German picture. It is just one expanse of frowning cloud and storm tossed pillow, and the artist has named it "Windstarke 10. 11."--New York Sun.

African Native Gave Straight Answer
 to Straight Question.
Mas. W. A. PAUL

The negroes of Africa are simple and direct in speech. It never occurs to them, writes MT R. H. Milligan in The Jungle Folk in AfIiea,' that the purpose of language is to conceal thought, and to commiserate the Afri- can for his color is a waste of sym pathy. In illustration of this Mir Mil ligan gives an amusing conversation with one of his pupils.
 One day, when 1 was talking to Eo- jedi, something in the course of the conversation prompted be to ask him whether he would like to be a white man. He replied respectfully but em- phatically in the negative. l wiehed 10 Snow his reason. He hesitated to tell me; but 1 was insistent, and at last he replied
 Well, we think we are better-look, ing"
 I gasped when I thought of the vast ly ill-looking faces l had seen in the iungles, and in apology for myself, said:
 But you have not seen us in our own country, where there is no ma laria, and where we are not yellow and green"
 He quietly asked what color we were in our own country to which prompt ly replied, Pink and white"
 Looking at me steadily for a mo- ment he remarked:

To RexoIutionize aat.ies.

It will he necessary for the poets of he future to revise imagery as they describe the conflicts of arms. Furi- ous Frank and fiery Hun no longer struggle under sulphurous canopy. The lines of Tennyson in celebration of the exploit of the Light Brigade will become archaic. Soldiers on the eve of battle will not continue to dance until the roll of distant guns summons tsem from their partners. The battle field during the most tremendous grap- pie may be as smiling as a plain of Provence. and the song of birds may be heard as missiles weighing a ton are hurled through the air.

Means the Same Thina.

In England to call a woman homely means that she is fond of anything about home and is unpretending; in the United States it means not hand. some. To be clever in England means to be dextrous and with us the term signifies good natured or honest. We say crackers, they say biscuit; our mail is the post; and baggage check in England becomes brasses, while they say luggage for baggage. A tramp in the United States is a vagabond, but in England any traveller may be so called. But there is even a greater diff ference of terms in different parts of the United States than in the two countries. In New England man is brought up and in the south he is reared and colored man ralsed.
