The Death Of "Judy" the Pet Elephant
of Coney Island.

The sick animal stood with eyes
closed, head lowered, and dangling
trunk, breathing quickly; but not
sound OF complaint escaped the stole.
Her trunk and her ears were hot, and
her eyes twinkled like burning Goals
with the fever raging behind them. In
vain the doctor tried his remedies.
The great trouble was to get the pat,
lent to take medicine. At the end Of the
great trunk that could alike uproot q

For a week, night and day, the trainer

work was OF no avail.
Half an hour before the sick brute
oled, she gave little trumpet and,
throwing her trunk about the mans
waist, held him and drew him toward
her.
"Gawd, l knew them she was saying
good-by, and began to blubber like

the story. "She held me close. as

The Right to be disagree cable.

K II business men were to throw on
self control in their offices and places
OF business as many OF them do in
their homes, and say the same mean,
contemplate. unguarded things to
their customers that they say to mem.
bers Of their own families, their bust
ness would soon go to pieces.
There are thousands Of men who are
polite, tactful. diplomatic toward their
customers, and in everything which
bears upon their business, who seem
to lock their good manners up In their
offices at night, men who are known
as DR.. Jekylls in all their business
transactions, but who assume the
character of Mr.. Hyde as soon as they
enter their own homes, where they
feel at liberty to ride roughshod over
everybody's feelings. They do not seem
to think that the wife, or any other
member OF the family gets. tired, has
nerves. or troubles of any kind. They
exercise self-restraint all day, but the
moment they get home, they seem to
vent their bad humor on everybody,
sven on the dog or the cat. Is it not
strange thing that so many people
think that home Is not a place for the
exercise OF self-control, but take 1t for
granted that there they can abuse
everybody without restraint?
The head ofs.Aa haassas not always
the only offender in this respect.
Wives and children often seem to
think that the home is the place where
they can indulge in fits Of hot temper,
and say all manner OF mean, disagree
able and despicable things. They think
that they have right to spend
whole evening or perhaps days, pout-
Ing over some fancied injury or some
ltrife. There are many homes where
all the laws Of courtesy and even OF
ordinary decency. are set at defiance.
where the boys go downstairs In the
morning and about the house half
dressed without the slightest feeling
of desicacy. The girls are often just as
careless as their brothers They go
around the house In all sorts Of cos
tunes, soiled and untidy, and often to
the table, especially in the morning, in
. disgraceful condition. They think It
is all right because only their brothers
and parents are present.
Many man who is very deferential
to society women treats the girls or
poor women who happen to be Deepen
dent upon him for living. very shah
billy. In society always alert to show
the slightest service to the ladies', he
is absolutely Indifferent to the. com
fort and feelings Of stenographer or
other women in his employ. Those who
are bound to him by the necessity Of
earning their living, do not call out
his nobler sentiments. He regards them
as Just help" nothing more. They
may be Infinitely finer grained than
.mself, but he rides roughshod over
their sensitive feelings, domineering.
criticising, mercilessly scolding. even
using profane language.
Such man would be terribly shock
ed If those to whom he is SO deferen-
tial in society knew now he treated
the women in his employ. They would
not believe it possible-if they could
be in his office, store or factory for
day-that the man who displays these
coarse, brute qualities, could possibly
be the polished gentleman they met
the evening before.-success Maya

A Bird Of Prev,

1t is difficult to understand just why
the wary ogre of the post Office tower.
erstwhile known as a hawk should be Of
ticially proclaimed immune from slayers
because an ornithologist has pronounced
him to be perigrene falcon. 1t may
be true that the perigrene falcon is a
rare bird and interesting to scientists.
BIT carrier, pigeons, while not rare. are
quite as interesting. The bird of the
tower is a pigeon eater. whether it be
hawk or falcon. and its determination is
no less desirable because some one de-
clares that he is an unusual creature.
Why should a perigrene falcon be given
immunity in it's pigeon slaughter. while
a. common hawk would be shot as soon
as possible? No farmer would hesitate
TO druw trigger If he had bead on a
poultry thief simply because some one
told him the marauder was rare bird.
NO particular good is accomplished by
the preservation of the species. The
birds mounted body would serve all the
purposes of science. would indeed be moro
useful to students of natural history than
the ravenous pigeon eater high on his
perch.
