Awful Thouuhtl

Two children, evidently from the
West side, were feeding peanuts to the
elephants in Ringlngville the other
afternoon, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean. One could see that with them
peanuts we're something of a treat.
Perhaps, had it not been for the thrill
Of feeding the gothic creatures, they
might have preferred to eat the
COOLERS themselves. Fascinated, they
were placing the peanuts carefully in
the fingerlike proboscides that curled
30 greedly around them. The supply
was rapidly becoming exhausted when
the smaller girl, who had been watch
ing her sisters extravaganza with
some alarm, nudged her.
Mamie" she said, q wouldn't feed
them too much. 1t might give them
tho stomach ache"

to empty. They were almost alone
when they realized that the play was
over. An usher came toward them.
"Mr. and Mrs. Mullins?" he inquired
blandly, casting curious glances at the

would like to see you in her dressing
room. Will you step this way, please?"

to stop for them several times before
he brought them to the comfortable
room in which their daughter was
waiting.
She was attired in her street gown,
and she had carefully washed every
trace Of paint from her face. There
was no reason why she should let
them msunderstand.
AS ne old couple halted, rather
sheepshly. at the door, Lucy ran to-
