A despatch from Toronto says: The elephant at the Riverdale Zoo acts as his own dentist. A few days ago it pulled a tooth which had been bothering it, the operation be- ing witnessed by a number of per- sons who were watching the ani- mal at the time. It appeared to be in pain, and worked its trunk round in its mouth as though to dislodge something unpleasant. At last, af- ter moving its trunk frantically, the animal drew something from its mouth, It cast the tooth thus ex- tracted out of the enclosure. Tha molar was large, and had evidently broken off in the gum, as all the root did not come out. The crown was in a good state of preservation, but there were signs of decay lower down. p------ LOAN COMPANIES' BUSINESS. An Increase of $15,000,000 in tho West During Last Year. A despatch from Winnipeg Bays: Regular loan companies operating in the three western Provinces in- creased their investments in this field by $15,008,821 during the year 1010, according to carefully com- piled statements. The statements cover the operations of 75 com- panies, and show that at December 31, 1910, there was loaned on real estate mortgages $71,323,556, as against $56,315,735 at December 31, 1909, the increase for the year be- ing equal to 26 per cent. The in- crease in Manitoba was $5,806,241, or 39.8 per cent.; in Saskatchewan $6,648,211, or 17.3 per cent., and in Alberta $2,552,369, or 42 per cent. Last year was exceptionally active from a loaning standpoint, and while large sums have been loaned by all regular companies this year, the best authorities doubt if the increase will be as great as during 1910. --ee CONTROL OF SUBMARINES. Successful Experiments by the British Admiralty. A despatch from Portmouth, Eng- land, says: Successful experiments with the wireless control of sub- marine boats have been made, but the details are kept secret.

Then the crew was taken out, and the experiment was equally successful when the boat was submerged. Similar ex- periments are being made with tor- pedoes. LR SE IRISH STRIKE SETTLED.

An eloquent lesson in the philo- sophy of che wilderness, which re commends the traveller to 'stick to the trail,' comes from "Ths Log of the North Shore Club," a recent book by Mr, Kirtland B®. Alexander. . While the Indian guides portagad round the falls at Frenchman's Ra- pid, which is on one of the hun- dred rivers that take their source in lakes deep buried in the unknown wild, and flow down through rocky gorges and plunge over falls, and roll at last into Lake Superior, Mr. Alexander and a companion struck an intersecting trail that looked fresh. They were simultaneously seized with a desire to leave the portage trail and see where the new trail led to: It looked as if it might lead to a lake--the contour of the country indicated it. It did lead to a lake, and to their surprise thoy saw an Indian teepee on the far side of it. They walked round the lake,--still on the trail,-- and found an Indian patching a birch-bark canoe in front of the tee- pee. Mr. Alexander recognized him as Jim Radigeau, or something like that. Anyway, it was Jim. "Jim said he had his "woman" and 'kids' in the teepee. Mr. Alexander and his friend went in to call and take some pictures. There squatted a squaw and four half or three-quarter naked youngsters in the teepee. Nobody seemed to be enjoying the call. The visitors stayed just long enough to ex- change a few half-Chippewa com- monplaces and observe that all the members of Jim's family looked droopy and languid. Mr, Alexan- der tried to draw one little papoose into conversation, but without sue- cess. When they came out, he said : 'Jim, the wife and the kids don't seem to be well." Jim said, '"'Naw,"" and went right on putting pitch on the canoe seams. "Been sick long?' asked Mr. Alexander's friend, sympathetical- ly. "Two, t'ree day--mebbe week or two." "What's the matter with them 1' Mr. Alexander asked. "Do you know, Jim?' , 'Not much--just leetle seek, guess. Smallpox, man at post, he say." ; ---- THE REST HABIT.

A despatch * from London, Eag- land, says: The first moving stair- way introduced into England is in operation at theEarl's Court sta- tion on the underground railway. It will carry ten thousand passen- gers hourly and do more work than six ordinary lifts. The trafic by the deep-level tube is so heavy at the busiest hours of the day that the lifts are overstrained and pas- sengers are delayed. If the experi- ment succeeds, similar double stairways, moving up and down simultaneously, will be constructed at other stations of the underground system. i CANADIAN GRETNA GREEN. 914 Marriages Performed in Wind- sor During Past Three Months.
