and its results in Our Dumb -Animals.
Hobe had stepped on a nail or a bit

Agony -almost wild with pain.
Long before we reached the enclosure
in which she was kept we could hear her
piteous trumpeting; and when we enter-
ed we found her on three legs, swinging
the sore foot 6lowly backward and, for-

ish. tier keeper said, "Don't you be
afraid, sir. Hebe's got sense." But
I oven that I felt rather queer and shaky
as I went up to the huge beast.
The men employed about the show
came round us curiously as I bent down
to examine the foot. While I was do-
ing so, as gently as I could, I felt a light
touch. on my hair, and awl turned and
saw the great trunk. behind me it had

said 4.0 her keeper. He said a. few words
in some lingo, evidently intended for
the elephant's understanding only. Then
he shouted with the utthost coolness,
'Cut away!" '
Well, I made one gash with elle knife.
I felt the grasp on my hair tighten per-
ceptbly, yet not ungently. Cold drops
of perspiration stood our all over me
and I hesitated as to whether I should

"Shalt I cut again?" I managed to call
out. •
"Cut away!" came the reponse.
• This etruke did the work. A mass of
fetid matter followed the knife; the ab-
scess was lanced. 'We sprayed out -the
foot, packed it, and bound it up. The
relief must have been immediate, for the
'grasp on my hair relaxed, the elephant
drew a long sigh.

"Hebe's well and hearty, sir," the keept

her; ahe'll be glad to see you." ,
For a moment she loked at me indif-
ferently, then steadily and with inter-

and laid it caeessingly on my hair, and
then she lifted up her foot, now whole
and healthy, andshowed it to me. That's
the sober truth.
