 Roughly estimated, the number of tlo-
 mestioated elephants in Siam is about 5000 The supply has been decreased yearly and prices have advanced until now a full grown male timber elephant is worth about $23OO and a female S16O0. Travel in northern Siam, especially during the iainy season, would be impossible without the elephant, and he is used to great ad- vantage in the lockwood industry. An elephant is full grown at % years, but not in full vigor until 8. The length of fife is 80 to 150 years and the average weight is about three tons. In Siam the elephant carries only 250 to 550 pounds, according to the size of the animal

 in the Aypthia district recently more 1han 200 were seen at one time. These drives
 are held yearly in the various districts of

"The Mother" of a State

 Mrs. Perry Starkweather, first woman in America on labor commission, orig mated, organized and is the head of a de- partment at first experimental but daily making good.'' She was appointed by the late Governor Johnson of Minnesota, and aims to make the department the pioneer working toward federal bureau for women and children. Mrs. Starkweather is a wealthy and charming woman, a mother, and was for many years a mill owner. The adverse conditions surrounding the mill girls set her to active work Investigating and bet tering their conditions. Then she took up the cause of children unlawfully employed. It is significant that ten other states have written to her regarding the organization and maintenance of such a department | The main idea of Mrs Starkweather Is to keep every girl in the home where it | is :. ..Lmanely possible until she is at least | IS, to teach her cooking and housekeep- | ing and to fit her for motherhood. If she
 must go to work outside, make conditions safe and satisfactory.
 | Mrs. Starkweather gives personal an-
 swers to hundreds of letters from womep and girls, giving advice and sometimes
 money, finding places for those needing
 work, often getting medical and dental aid, and in some cases seeing that girls l dying without friends were buried by the department and saved from the potter s field. Tn one year nearly 3O00 places have been visited where women and child.'en
 work and in every instance general condi- tions have been improved. | To Mrs. Starkweather is due perhaps the greatest known feat of philanthropic
 advertising in the northwest. She com posed, had printed and caused to be hung
 in every railway station in Minnesota and
 in many other public places notice 10
 young women and girls, which reads as l follows:
 Do not go to the large cities for work
 unless you are compelled to- If you must 1 go, write at least two weeks in advance
 to the womens department bureau of
 labor, St. Paul. or to the Young Women's
 Christian association in the city where | you want to work.
 They will obtain for you such a posi-
 tion as you ask; tell you about wages,
 boarding places and whatever you want | to know.
 Two days before you leave home write again and tell the day and hour when your train will arrive and responsible
 woman will meet you at the station and take you safely to your destination. l Do not ask questions of strangers nor take advice from them.
 Ask a uniformed railway official or a policeman.

 This rather hysterical outcry has nat urally enough provoked the resentment of the seaside girls and led them scorn- fully to describe their cditics as ''prudes' and "puiists' Metaphorically speaking virtue, and tell the would be reformers that that alone would be quite sufficient safeguard for the proprieties if there were nothing more.
