ELEPHANT'S HABITS
Dixie, the elephant who went from Wombtrell 's Circus to Whips'uade Zoo in England, no longer tries to sit down on garden chairs, but is still a problem to her keeper?. The chief trouble is music. It revives exciting memories, and she begins to goose-step. Her passengers sometimes like it, but more often they do not, and some even demand Uieir money back. A whistle will start Dixie, or even happy humming under the breath; but she is trying her best, and is teaching irreproachable deportment to her two young companions, who luckily have not learned any of her embarrassing tricks.
