Probably the smallest practical trunk ever carried ia the property x>f one of the members of Prof. Gentry’s famous dog and pony show which will exhibit under canvass in this city ou the circus ground Wednesday, Nov 9ib, at 2:30 and 8 p. m. The member in question ia Pinto, the tiniest elephant in all tbe world, which ia scarcely as large as an ordi» nary pony. He is a trifle over four feet high, 27 years old, and said to be the best trained elephant in all tbe land Prof. Gentry imported Pinto from India last winter at an enormous cost. He is much more valuable than an ordinary elephant because of bis diminutiveness Pinto possesses ia superb disposition and is a great friend of the children, who will al) have an opportunity of having a ride on him and getting thoroughly ac quainted during tbe show’s stay in this city. In addition to Pinto, many other novelties have been added to tbe already excellent performance. The prices of admission are children 15 cents; adults 25 cents. An Important Difference. To make it apparent to thousands, who think themselves ill, that they are not af flicted with any disease, but that the sys tem simply needs cleansing, is to bring comfort home to their Hearts, as a costive condition is easily cured by using Syrup of Figs.

Tbe beet that any of us can do ie but a fragment. Our duty is to do onr part well". We are responsible for that alone. The things we cannot do, some other one ia wailing and preparing to do after the work has passed through our bands. Tbe doing of one thing is in effect the preparation for and part doing of another. The best developer of good ness ia good doing. Preparation for noble deeds come from the simple performance of humble duties. Tbe trained man is tbe man of destiny, and it is by constant endeavor that he is trained. Duty’s path always opens for us as we go on—not before we start; but we must ebey and move forward. Yet we must not expect there will never be any difficulties to meet or obstacles to surmount. God never has prom ised that. Too easy a path is often the bane of life, not a blessing. Tbe difficulties and obstacles that remain may be made stepping stones by which we shall rise to higher things.

IT CURED THE COOK. — v The Rcaalt ot Her Maeter’e Wree tlinv Match With the Telephone. “About a week after the telephone was installed—any electrical device is always ‘installed’ when it is brought into the house—the cook was suddenly taken ill in the middle of the night, and I was requested to telephone for the doctor. It took me fully ten minutes of prolonged ringing and yelling before I could induce the central office to put me into communication with the doc tor. Then I sent an agonized howl through the telephone, begging the doc tor to come at once. “In the course of the following hour six different persons carried on brief conversations with me, but no one of them was the doctor. In the case of each person it took about ten minutes of hard labor to induce him to say any thing intelligible, and when the intel ligible remark arrived it was to the effect that the speaker was Brown or Jones or Robinson; that he was not a doctor, and that he would inflict per sonal chastisement on the man who had called him out of bed if he could find the criminal in the morning. “At last, however, my efforts were apparently crowned with success. A wretch who said he was the person of whom I was in search promised to call at my house at once. Accordingly one hour and a quarter after I had first rung the telephone I received a hurried call from the local undertaker, who insisted that I had telephoned to him to bring a coffin without a moment’s delay. I got rid of him at the expense of 5 shillings and a glass of wine, and I am happy to say that the shock of the visit cured the cook without the aid of any other med icine.”—W. A. Alden in Pearson’s Magazine. Cyclists as Sportsmen. The wheelman himself can hardly be held answers bl e for the death of a rab bit which bolted into his machine as it stood by the roadside and broke its neck, and there was contributory negli gence, as the lawyers say, on the part of the cat which tried to go through the wheel of a passing bicycle and gave the rider a bad fall at the cost of its own life. Mnch more noteworthy than either of these was the achievement of a cy clist who while scorching along the road (he must have been scorching) ran into a covey of partridges and killed one, his wheel passing over its neck. The only way in which this carious accident can be explained is to suppose that the birds were “dusting” at a bend in the road, and that the cyclist’s approach, concealed 'by the hedges, re mained undetected till the enemy was literally among them. —Chambers’ Jour nal. Disgusted. Old Lady (to driver of growler)— Now, driver, I want yon to go very carefully. “Certainly, mum.” “And not go racing with other cabs.” “No, mum.” “And not go round the corners quickly.” “No, mum.” , After the job the old lady, handing him the exact fare, a shilling, said: “You have driven mo very carefully and well, and here is a shilling for you. Have you driven a cab all your life?” ‘‘No, mum. I used to drive a hearse, and blest if I don’t go back to it It’s a better game than this. I hope I’ll drive yer again, mum.” —London Fun. Poker Diet. Daniel O’Connell’s sarcastic and graphic description of a lady of stiff, cold and formal manners ia very happy, “She has all the characteirstics of a poker—except its occasional warmth.” This recalls the story of the two Irish servants who, discussing the stiff and unbending manners of the young lady of the family, agreed that “when she was a baby her mother must have fed her upon boiled pokers, underdone!”— London Standard. Inside Information. Yeast—This discussion about the size of a whale’s throat, I notice, is still going on. Crimsonbeak—Yes. It’s too bad Jo nah didn’t leave some report on the sub ject. He must have had some inside in formation.—Yonkers Statesman. As the Honeymoon Dwindles. She—l really ought to have a new hat. He—How would it do to stick a few feathers in the top crust of one of those pies you baked last week? You would have something that would last then. —Cincinnati Enquirer. The London Standard says the Scot tish race is the most clannish, the most übiquitous, the most pertinacious and the most instinctively coherent in the World. It is reported that 400,000 canaries change hands every year in the United Kingdom alone, the value of them be ing about £IOO,OOO. ■ ll . —.—.. i DR. E. la. HANES, DENTIST.
