LEGENDS OF THE ELEPHANT
Many and Wonderful Are the Tales
Told Concerning Its Virtues
and Its Wisdom.

Naturally we talked first about ele-
plants, Of which he was almost as
childishly fond as |. But in contrast
to my poor knowledge, he possessed
the rich lore of man who had not
only observed hath for many years
with loving interest, but had also lis
tened to the tales of mahout and shi-
kari from Siam to Ceylon. He poured
out a hundred gifts from an apparent
ly ineXhaustibe store. He told of
''roundups' in Burma, when the wild
herds are driven into gigantic corrals
to be tanned for, the service of puny
man. Then, turning to the names be-
slowed by doting mahouts on these
colossal darlings, he pointed out that
IN this nomenclature of affection Lo-
tus, or Lily or Pearl was only a COM
monplace, while even Silver Star and
Golden Joy seemed inadequate. Folk
tales. too, he repeated among them
the narrative of the wise elephant
that used to be sent out from a GER
tain city the morning after the king'A
h'bN w bilhS baNh III ITO bNJNNNiNh
he alah 'e rrN it had chosen as sue
c .r To- G., thrc~n. Finally, just
as we were leaving the bank Of the
stream, he spoke of the part played Icy
the elephant in the story of him who
became the Light of Asia. Before the
birth of Gautama, destined TO be the
savior of mankind, his mother dream-
ed that a six-rayed star from heaven
entered her right side, and of this
star the token was a white elephant
with six perfect tusks. Again, in the
prophetic vision Of his father, the sec
ond Fear was ten huge silver-tusked
elephants, signifying the ten great
gifts of wisdom, In strength whereof
the prince should shake the world. IN
Buddha's middle years an enemy
sought to take his life by sending
against him raging elephant but
the animal recognized the good head
of the venerable Omniscient One"
and stood in peaceful alteration before
the divine person.-Asia Magazine.

EpIGRAM is NOT GREELEY's
Great Editor Long Wrongly Credited
With Advice, go West, Young
Man, Go West"

The famous epigram "Go West.
young man, go West" so commonly
attributed to the pen of Horace Gree
ley, was not written first by that ven
cradle editor of the New York Trl-
Dune, but by John l.. B. Soule, editor
of the Terre Haute Express. In 1851
Richard Thompson, afterward secre-
tary of the navy, urged Soule to so
west and grow up with the country,
and praised the editors talents as n
writer. He wagered barrel OF flour
that Soule could write an article that
would be attributed to Horace Gree
ley.
The result Of the suggestion was
column editorial about the Vests
opportunities for young men. 1t de-
clared that Horace Greeley could new
er have given young man better I'D
vice than contained In the words, "Go
West, young man." Although stated
merely as Soule thought Greeley
might have put it, newspapers all
over the country began to credit Gree
ley with the epigram. So widespread
did the quotation become that Gree
ley's paper reprinted the editorial
from the Express, with the following
footnote:
"rhe expression of this sentiment
has been attributed to the editor of
the Tribune enormously. But so fully
does he concur In the advice 1t gives
that he indorses most heartily the
epigrammatic advice of the Terre
Haute Express, and Joins In saying,
Go West, young man, go Vest"

DAME NATURES LITTLE JOKE
Old Lady Seems to Have Played Fa-
vorites in Arranging Some Gil
matte Conditions.

Nature plays cruel Joke in the diff
ference of altitude Of India and Tibet.
Had they been reversed one would
have said that it was a providential
arrangement. The traveller who crosses
the Himalayas from Cashmere has to
climb nearly twice as much as the trav-
eler who comes from the north, be-
cause while India averages only per-
haps 100 feet above sea level, Tibet
averages 1900 feet, and for this rea-
son is called the Roof of the World.
Now, had India had this elevation
south of the mighty range Of the Him
alayas, and thus shielded from the
north, as well as nearer to the equa-
tor, her climate would probably have
been as temperate as Britain, and one
of the healthiest in the world. While
had Tibet lain as low as India, in
stead of being the dreariest, most in
hospitable of lands, 1t would, by rea-
son of its latitude, be one of the most
habitable countries In the world.

Dream Reveals Crime.

which is kept alive by the melodrama
still played in country towns.

successive nights that her daughter
had been murdered and buried in the

should be taken up.
This was done and the body of the
missing girl was found, and constitute
