Elephants haw a decided liking for I J military life. Various regiments whilst •erring in the Fast have had such an ; animal, which often rendered good ser-I vitro to corps to which be might be at- > tachrd. The King’s Ranger* at one time wen in poss* s tine male of enormous size, which for many years wm never onoe absent oteparade. At soon j as the bnglo sounded.lio would walk majestically to the place of muster, and take up hta ]««it>ou at tho right of the column.

When the wagons 'Were inq»eded on the march, as it not (infrequently hate pened, Jock was duly sensible of hate, own importance, for, by his enormous strength, be wonk! push a heavy load up a strop droll vity, which six or eight oxen failed to do without his assistance ■ 1 It happened that the Rangers were i . suddenly ordered to embark for China, and there wax tKHtccummiAlation for tak ing Jock on shipboard. To the great <lu»p}>oiu<iueut of th<* men, the atrthon “ ties decided that he should tie left in India. He was, however, prnnitt<*d to accompany the regiment as far mi the t*> watch the troojie as they went on bohrd, many of whom had a parting word of kindness for their old comrade. “Good-bye, old man," “Poor old Jock I” were n>peated with many Vans tiona, both by oflerrs and men. Meanwhile tlie animal watched the proceedings with great ap|«n*nt intprrwt, as if wondering when his own turn would <i>nie to go on board. Hut when the vesael ateamad off and left him ashore, he became ban tie with rage and disappointment It had been proposed that bo should - be traasfened to another corps, but he persistently tw fiwed to have anything to do with it. Neither the coaxing nor the threats of his mahout were of any avail.

Even tho mahout himself . was several times placed in a very awk want predicament, and on one ixxwuoii ban'ly escaped with lim life. No menus could be found to assuage the grief w to calm the anger nf this faithful creature, who so constantly mourned the kwa of his friends. But in little Im than two years the Rangers CMa * back to their old quarters, and. wertaanfonmvl of the melancholy change which had come over their old comrade. “No go near—no touch, sahib :he 1 ■trike bard?" said the mahout; “he ' kill!" “ Why Jock, my boy,"aaid a young . officer, formerly o«c of hi« hjxxssl fn<«KM, , what*a the matter I” > . ■ The animal pricked nphis ears, had instantly recaguixe,! the voice, which ’ ,-waa proved by hw manifesting unmistakablo sdgtw and.aoqhda of joy.

WUAKTNO Tfflt TEETH. - - What rule liAve you in regard to the use of tooth powders, soap, eta.? Aaru’er.—Dr. Flagg says: “Tooth powders containing insoluble ingredii ents, such as ground barks, and repes ' cially pulverized charcoal, do nothing toward preventing decay of the teeth, and are eminently injurious by their- insinuation under the margin of the gums. “ For very many years it has been ■noticed that tlie use of soap as an adjunct in cleansing the teeth has proved very eflicacwus in the prevention of decay ; thia ta believed to have been particularly due to the alkaline reaction of certain kimla.of soap formerly used, such m mottled Castile for example ; but of late years to this has been added the equally great, and p*a*sibiy greater, efficacy of some of the most noted antiseptic*, such m creosote, carbolic acid, eto, which, conjoined to saponaceous compounds, have wrought wonders in the retardation, and even arreetation of caries. “ Together with the*', or any soaps, it is'advisable to use some fractional pow- ! dvr, gentle or haraher, according to re- j quireuientaJ with some the addition of precipitate*! 5 chalk is all-sufficient to prevent the tendency to yellowish discoloration which ta apt to accompany the frequent use of soap alone; but again, in other instances, it ta found nocessaiy to employ powdered cuttle-fish bone, or even finely-pulverized (levigated) pumice ■tone.” DBCAT OF THE TEETH. What time of day do the terith dei*ay most rapidly ? Anwer.—From nudnightf till the breakfari hour. The meate of the day lielp to preserve the teeth by friction and the flow of saliva, which to a great extent eleauseo them of decaying matter; and thus it is that the teeth (lass through the day and early part of the night without much progress of caries; but after retiring, the remaining partickiA of acidifying foofi» the inspissating mucus, tlie developing fiuigi, all comlnne to make the hours toward morning pre-eminently the j»eriod of d»x»y. Then it is that the elialk placed between the teetii late at night, and allowed to remain there, eomte to the rescue, and by ita anti-acid reaction prevents in a great degree that disintegration dependent upon aeidity and parasitic growth.— Herald of Health. oir thk itor/t/.vo »£«>*.

A certain Oregon professor was a wry fatherly sort of a man, particularly •toward his young Italy pupils. Whenever a young lady would ask a question, he would place his hand quietly on her head and make considerable more fuss than was necessary. Os course the girls got tired of this, and conspired to break liim of his fatherly proclivities. One of them hit upon a plan. She fixed up a nice little pin cushion, had the pins inserted so that they would stand on their head, point upward, and then adjusted the infernal machine on top of .her head, covering it with just enough of her hair to hide it from view. This done, she left her seat during the session, walked demurely up to the professor's desk, stood a moment in his august presence, and then, in a meek and plaintive tone of voice, she asked him for the information as to whether Washington crossed the Delaware on the ice or on horseback When he left Trenton. He raised his hand over head and soothingly said, I “Why, my dear little child”—We’ll have to end this sentence there, for the balance of the exclamation was a sort of half howl, half whoop, which we can neither write nor print. Just as he said “child,”he lowered his hand caretoingly .but forcibly upon the crown of the girl s head, and the whole surface of biis extended palm fylt the tickling and exhilarating sensation of a couple of dozen > of pin-points. PRICES liO YEARS AtiO. In 1755 a young gentleman of Massa cbtisctts had occasion to go from his home near Waltham to Newark, N.

Tire voyage was made aboard a sloop. Five quarts of New England mn> at 64 cents a gallon; a dozen chickens for SX; a quarter of a jxnjnd of ten at H i pound; two pounds of loaf sugar al St cents a pound; nearly two dozen lemons and ihroe pounds of butter at 16 cents were taken.

CHEBHDTG PBOSPECTS. Report* of HiMiouri and Kanaaa—Th'Stricken Diotricta Will Pnxlar Half an Average Cr9f - \ A Kansas City letter to the Chicago Yiwncs says; The region devastated by the “ ’hoppers" commences a little south of Fort Scott, Ttnn f and embraces a strip of territory from sixty to seventyfive miles in width (about equal portions being in Kansas and Missouri)* This strip of country extends north through Kansas and Missouri into Nebraska and lowa. For most of the distance from Fort Scott to the lowa line the work of destruction has been complete; oats, corn, wheat, meadows, and vegetables alike disappear before these voracious creatures. But singular to relate, there are patches of ground where they failed to light, which wSt yield a good crop. It is, of oouree, now too late for oats, wheat, or hay, but many of the fanners harez-sMjlowed their land and planted "it with the second crop of corn, many •ending SNorth and getting the early dent variety for seedr Thia y6onr-gives promise or)a pretty fair yrop. The counties whiNjJmve been nrost ravages in Kansas are BourwmTvJrinn, Miami, Johnson, Wyandotte and Leavenworth* These counties have lost nearly their entire crop, and will be dependent for food and provender op outside territories. The counties of Atchison, Doniphan, Douglas, Allen, Franklin, Anderson, Neosho and Brown are considerably injured, and perhaps will have a half crop. The rest of the State of Kansas, outside of the counties enumerated, will yield a very heavy crop of all kinds of grain. In Missouri, the cony ties injured are Vernon, one-half crop; Bates, Cass, Jackson and Clay, badly injured; while the counties of Buchanan, Nodaway, Atchison, Henry, Johnson, Lafayette, Pettis and Saline are, to use the phrase of tlie average Missourian, more or less injured, which means that the entire number last named will not yield to exceed half a crop. Kansas City may be regarded as very near the center from east to west of the territory ravaged. This territory extends esist to within a few toiles of Cameron, Mo., and west to Lawrence, Kan. These are on the flanks along which the grand army of invasion foraged in small numbers doing a little damage, while along the center of tliis strip nearly all the grain, grass and vegetables are destroyed, only patches here 'and there having escaped. In the counties enumerated in the two Stales, notwithstanding the ravages in the center of the district, those best informed believe there will, be a small surplus after supplying the needs of the people and what is needeil for stock. Owing to the destruction of the pastures there has been a good deal of suffering among the stock, and many of the farmers have been obliged to drive their cattle and horses into the large prairies of Missouri, east of the line of destruction, or intb>.Kans;is, west of it, to find pasture to save them from starvation.' But this will soon be remedied, for the grasshoppers have all left, and this entire region has recently been visited by heavy and soaking rains, which will soon bring out good pasture for stock. The farmers have also sown millet in many places, wliieh will in a measure take the place of meadow hay for next winter’s fodder for the stock. The season is not yet so far advanced but that they anticipate a good crop. f AEKI>I.£.S. * Needles are more easily made than pins, or rather there is less machinery, and it is more easily understood. The wire is cut double the length required and sharpened at each end. Then it- is passed under a stamping machine which Hattens the center and stamps a place for the two eyes, the next operation being to pierce the eyes. This- =is comparatively a slow operation, as the eyes are pierced singly, aid care must be taken to put the right spot under the instrument. They are then strung on wires, and the waste filed off around the eyes by hand, and the two needles broken apart. After thia they are hardened by heating in ovens, and then being dipped in oil, yet this hardening process leaving them too brittle, they areagain annealed, which operation is supposed to leave them just right. At this period they are very black; they are rolled loosely in canvas wrappings with emery and soft soap, placed und< r roUera worked by steam, and rolled for a. week, usually having the emery and t>oap renewed daily. Again they are jtolished by being rubbed against a leather wheel with emery, and then they are straightened. The straightener rolls them singly with one finger on a smooth steel plate, thus discerning the slightest bend, and hitting with a little steel mallet. It isddne very rapidly, but very surely.

A SHARP YAWTER. The Melbourne (Australia) Arfftu tells the following story : “A gentleman of the legal profession, at one of the great t mining centers, having spent a gaudy i i evening at a leading hotel, found the ' fresh air too much for him. Instead of reaching the bosom of his family, he gravitated to the lock-up, with the muchneeded assistance ofi a servant of the i Queen in full uniform. The lock-up i keeper didn’t know him, and conseI quentiy couldn’t send for his friends to bail him out, as is frequently done by ’ those tender-hearted officers of justice. So he was allowed to sleep until 7 in the morning, when he was aroused and asked bis. name, which he promptly said was ‘Johnson.’ He obtained soap, water and a clothes-brush, and was refreshed by a cup of tea. He then proposed to the lock-up keeper that the officials •should walk beside him to the Police Court. When the time came this was done, and, by keeping the officer in earnest converse, it appeared as though the' lawyer was engaged in some business before the court, and when the name of Johnson was called, he calmly rose, and said, ‘ I appewr for the prisoner, Worship.’ ‘What’’ said the Police Magistrate, *dq you deny that he was drunk?’ ‘Oh/no,’he replied, ‘he was very drunkybut is very sorry for it. ‘ Five sluffings or six hours’ imprisonment,’ said thv Police Magistrate. ‘ I will pay his fine Ayse If,’ said this readyi wilted gentleman, who, m this instohee, j showed that the man who is his own ' lawyer hasn’t always a fool for a client.” . j' ’i Wilhoit’s Fkvkr and Ac.vk Tonic.— This medicine is used by cOnstructimi companies for the benefit of their employes, when engaged .in malarial districts. The highest testimonials have becti given by contractors and by the l*reeideulsof some of the leading railroads in the South and West. When men are congregated in large numbers in the neighborhood of swamps and-rivers, Wilhoft's Tome will prove a valuable addition to the stock of medicines, and will amply reward tho coniioiiy in the saving of time., labor and' money.
