Hungry FElephants. How They Gratify a Taste for Dainties. One favorite food of the African ele- phant is the tender, juicy roots of the mimesa-tree, which grows in scattered groups through most of the meadows and lowlands of central Africa. ‘When an elephant finds a young tree of this sort, it is not difficult, as a rule, for him to get at the roots, especially if the surrounding soil 1s moist and loose, as is often the case after it has been sosk- ed by the heavy rainfalls of the tropics. If the tree is loose, the elephant, know- ing his strength, winds his trunk firmly round the tree, and plucks it from the earth, a feat which 1s no harder for him than the pulling up of a flower 1s for a child. But the elephant does not stop here ; experience has taught him the most com- fortable way of enjoying his prize, so without relaxing his held, he turns the tree completely over, and stands it with its upper branches thrust down into the place where the roots were. Then the earthy roots, now replacing the branches remain within easy reach of the strong and deft trunk, African travelers tell us of great tracts of country almost covered with these trees. Seeing thedry trees turned up. side down one would be inclined to think a wood had been reversed by mis- chievous fairies, than to suppose hungry elephants had been feeding there, Sometimes an elephant will find a tree which defies his greatest efforts, and absolutely refuses to be uprooted. But the elephant does not give up. Not at all. He either brings another elephant to help him—a thing they of- ten do when the work is to much for one—or, if he cannot find a friend, he sets his own wits to work. He makes use of his tusks as levers, thrusting them, as if they were crowbar:, deep under the roots, and pries away slowly and steadily until the tree is loosened ; and then with a great wrench he com- pletely uproots it and it goes toppling over, leaving the clever elephant vic- torious.

As you all, no doubt, know they call me ‘Boodle Jim,” and now since the organ that gave me that touching nom de plume is to become defunct, I think it proper to relieve myself of some of my surplus ¢“hoodle,” and therefore offer the above reward for the apprehension of the “he-she-or-it” in College township that professes to be the friend of such a specimen as Jimmy Fiedler. It is worth the above amount to anyone to know who the villain is, and I shall feel that T have not lived in vain if I am able to disclose to humanity one who de- scends so low as to associate himself with such a man.
