being ue popular report of the british and forelrn bible society 19m ay rev edwin w smith literary superintendent white elephants t w 1 hose who often readf op slam as the land of the white ele phant which isv greatly ven erated there will be little disposed to accept the statement that siam is nothing of the kind these siamese do not and cannot claim that theirs is the land of the white elephant because in ceylon to the west and cambodia to the east veneration for certain elephants is as apparent as in siam yet another and very sufficient reason for avoiding such a claim is that the white elephant is not white at all the myth of the white elephant was apparently set a- broad by some early western traveller who collected uiformatlon rather per functorily what the siamese do regard as sacred and do greatly honor are what are known as curious elephants perhaps freak elephants would be a better translation of the siamese phrase though it savors of want of respect to his majesty the elephant but the un usual in him has probably nothing whatever to do with his color he may for instance have two extra toe on his forefeet he may have certain peculalr markings on his body patch es of red hair perhaps but white no the nearest he ever approaches to white is a kind of dirty gray whatever his peculiarity or peculiar ities however they mark him out for extreme favors from youth directly a baby elephant is fount with strange markings in the north or northeast of slam news of the discovery is sent to bangkok the capital experts go at once to examine the youngster and if their reports la favorable uu greater most probably royal experts are des patched to make final decision as to whether he is worthy of veneration and as to the degree of veneration in him may reside the spirit of some departed treat one of the royal fam ily in him may even be the spirit of the lord buddlm himself it is not for us to inquire how these experts make a decision so momentous the ways of experts in slam are like the ways of experts elsewhere they are beyond the understanding of ordinary people once it is decided that the young ster is the real thing the country is agog with excitement he has to be taken to bangkok there to be royally housed in special quarters within the royal palace the journey is in the nature of a triumphal procession an occasion for merrymaking is to the siamese an occasion to be seised with both hands and on it they spend lav ishly no other nation can excel the siamese in ie art of making holiday or in discovering excuses for making holidays the young elephants journey to the nearest large railway centre is a suc cession of dolsterlous welcomes and of gifts of choice foods vhen he reach c4 the railway he finds a special train awaiting him with spare engine and breakdown outfit attached his maj esty progress must be made as smooth as possible he travels in state with great comfort attended by high mem bers of court and church and by many officials one member of the royal family will accompany him to say chlengmal the northern capital and will there hand him over to a more important mem ber with a more lmnoslng retinue of priests and officials when the last day s journey from pltsanulok to bang kok is entered upon one very near to the retnging monarch probably the purachatra of kambaengbejra is the man who today takes anal charge but now the youngster is probably tired of the travelling and the cheering of feasting and having lustra water poured over him but he has still to be welcomed by the king and to be blessed by the highest dignitaries of the church he has still to see a city made gay in his honor and hundred nf thousands of people lining the streets and joyously acclaiming him as he pew surveys of religious or philan thropic societies maintain the high lit erary standard of the popular report issued by the british and foreign bible society this year s report entitled in the mother tongue is no exception to the rule the idea behind the report- is the power of native speech in the deepest and highest human experiences- and is developed along the lines of bible translation in the vernacular some six hundred and thirty transla tions out if a possible nine hundred stand to the credit 4 thjls great society the report abounds in apt literary quotations and the chapters are head ed by quotations from poets as diverse as milton tenheyson dryden and j w holme the very titles of the qhapters are suggestive tongues of all the world largest to mankind chapmen of the word finding the saviour jn the mother tongue lan guage of gratitude airftngst the illustrations is a beau tiful photograph of saint john harbour in new brunswick which is one of the great immigration ports at wtjich the society distributes the word to each incoming immigrant in required speech there are references to canada in the volume and special mention is made of the services of rev dr aosco heine one of the special immigration agents and a colporteur of proved value nobonly at the seaports but in the lum ber camps and wherever groups of workmen are found n eastern canada dr heine it is said habitually uses fifteen languages in his work amongst the immigrants and it is said to speak twenty- four there is a most interesting story also of a farmer in saskatchewan of ger man origin who bought the bible in his mother- tongue and having read it was influenced by its message with all the house immediately he dedicat ed three acres of his farm the proceeds of which were to go to the bible soc iety part of his gift was to supply the scriptures in german to the people of his race and blood and the rest was given to the support of a colporteur in china such an instance and there are many in the report only serves to remind us that the written word still exercises its power over the hearts of men and does influence them to a higher and nobler life we have pleasure indeed in commend ing this report to all who can obtain a copy and having read it and pon dered over its message there will be few who can remain unconvinced of the great work already accomplished by the society and the great opportunities that await it in the coming days in the preface the rev edwin smith literary superintendent of the bible society states that he has sought to present an account of the bible soc iety s enterprise in a form that will be attractive and readable and per- tatnty he has succeeded in his en deavours news and inf ofamation j for the busy farmer wlliin sftwwfeh despite deprcssed economic

mistress when she returned found the cat dead- and the room filled with gas an open window would have saved the animal why dont you think of these things no great problem is involved there is nearly always some way of arranging the omergency exit and when there is not it is the best to leave the pet 6utside sometimes a friend will keep the animal a few hours for you however as p b prior says in one of his excellent articles if you are go ing away for a stay of days or weeks do not leave your pet in the care of a neighbor unless you have perfect con fidence in that person for hpwever strongly
