ELEPHANTS,
In Olden Times These Big Animals
Were Used In War,
The circus elephant is almost as old
as the world, for the ancient Romans
had an eye to business as well as our
own circus men. Trained elephants
performed during the Roman gladia
torial fights, just as the clowns do in
our circuses during the Intermission,
But the elephant is also spoken of in
the history of the Bible. King Lysias
of Syria in 163 B. CO, led 120,000 men
and thirty-two war trained clephants
against Judas of Maceabee and won
the battle. Eleahar, the brother of Ju-
das, killed one of these elephants, but

HAVE AN ALARM CLOCK,
It May Save You Many Minutes For
Yourself During the Day,
Does the average housekeeper know
how important an article of household
furnishing is the alarm clock?
A young friend of mine, about to
marry, sald to me: “I intend to pur-
chase as the first article for my home
the most necessary and Important one,
as an omen for the future. Now, what
shall it be?”
At my reply, "An alarm clock,” she
appeared so surprised that I delivered
a little lecture on the value and uses
of the same, somewhat as follows:
The average home maker and home
keeper breaks down frequently, not so
much from overwork as from lack of
rest, for there Is a vast difference be
tween the two, She just “keeps going”
all the time all the long day through
and often Into the night and never
thinks of conserving her energy or her
strength by the frequent brief resting
times she might have did she know the
use and value of an alarm clock,
There may be, perhaps, five or ten
minutes before the bread need come
out of the oven and it has reached
that stage and the temperature of the
oven is such that It requires no looking
after. Bhe might just as well drop
down on the couch for five or ten min
utes’ rest, and she is so tired she may
fall and not awake until the
bread Is overdone, says the Ladles’
