Padgett Jr., ]. E. Lorick, T. J. lies,
Otis Reynolds, j. M. Long of Tren-

Wurgal went over in the dense wood
land on the west side of Lake George

In Ceylon the natives capture wild
elephants by lassoing them and tying
their hind legs to trees. Thus tied,
they are left to struggle for four or
FIVE days. If the ropes be well secured
and knotted the animals struggle in
vain, for they are unable to exert their
full strength toward getting free.
When they have grown tired of The
fruitless fight they are tied by the
neck between two tame elephants and
marched off to the tea plantations or
the railroad, where they are put to
work Under the tuition of tame ele-
plants they learn rapidly to perform
the labor that is required Of them and
soon are able to lay railroad ties accu-
rately.

Instinct and Reason.

Instinct is the generic term for all
those faculties Of mind that lead to the
performance Of actions that are adop-
tive in character, but pursued without
necessary knowledge of the relation of
the means employed and the ends at
tanned. Reason" Is usually applied
to such acts as are consciously per
formed with some particular end In
view. OF the two, instinct would seem
to be the more perfect, since 1t seldom
GOES wrong. whereas the missteps of
reason are innumerable. - New York
