MORALITY OF THE ELEPHANT

Singular - Il may seem. elephants
which have associated with men en-.
terrain the notion that, under special
circumstances, they are not responsi-
BILE II they utilize another to commit
an Illegal act. The following is an In
stance OF this elephantine morality:
A man In Rangoon bought, three
young elephants to send to england.
They were tame and playful. but cum
ming. Knowing that It was wrong to
steal paddy (unhusked rice)-the idea
had doubtless been impressed upon
them by punishment for stealing
they would not touch 1t themselves.
But II boy went to sec them. he
would be seized by one. the little
trunk would be coiled around his arm,
and he would be led to where the
paddy was kept In bags.
The elephant would make q cats
paw OF the boys hand to take up q
handful Of paddy. Then, letting 30,
he would turn up the end of his trunk,
open II, and coaxingly invite the boy
to drop in the paddy.
Should the boy, however, put it
back in the bag, his arm would again
be seized by the trunk, and his hand
would be again inserted into the paddy
bag.
The boy, anxious to be released,
would usually drop the paddy into the
trunk, and the elephant would blow
the rice into his mouth. After re-
peating the operation several times,
the elephant would scamper on, feel
ing that he had got the paddy with

TIRE NEN NICKEL

The Worcester Telegram says

abbreviated to bluff" later on.

he enriched by such expressions as
Don't hand me any of these buff
cigars, and Say, deres de place

mug dere for two buffs." And
the takers will be illustrating the
disposition Of the people Of this
country to eliminate the long
words. Buff will be just as
positively buffalo as the longer
word of three syllables. when it is
planted in the mind as meaning the
same thing. That is the province
Of what is generally called slang.
The age of much demands shorter
words. There is so much to be
said that the shorter the words in
which the ideas are expressed
the more can be slowed away
in the brain as it passes. The
boys will not object to the new
nickels because they are called
buffalonines by the classic, but
they will spend them as bluffs and
hustle around for more under the
same title and make livelier men
for that degree of activity.
