they have been on the shelves for

Elephant Labyrinth.

Near Ayuthia, formerly the capital
Of Siam, Is curious labyrinth In
which elephants are captured alive.
The labyrinth Is formed BY q double
row Of immense tree trunks set firmly
in the ground, the space between them
gradually narrowing. Where It begins
at the edge Of the forest the opening
Of the labyrinth is more than mile
broad, but as 1t approaches Ayuthia It
becomes SO narrow that the elephants
cannot turn around. Tame elephants
are employed to lure wild ones into
the trap. Having reached the inner
end Of the labyrinth, the tame ele-
plants are allowed to pass through a
gate, while men lying In wait slip
shackles over the feet OF the caDtives.
