"Look!" A great bull elephant was close upon them. Very quietly the doctor laid down bis pipe and took bis gun. while the natives scuttled up the trees In terror. The doctor took a quick shot but Just mlnsed the elephant's "brain pan. It threw up its trunk, opened its mouth, put Its tusks forward and charged. A second shot struck in the shoulder, but did not check its onrush The doctor shot again when it wo within a few paces, and. hurtling past him, it fell, with legs 'outstretched. with a bullet in its heart - The doctoi turned to his pipe.

The sailor says that the most fero cious creature that swims In the sea is the shark. By that he does not mean every shark, but what Is called the man eater, Just as a certain spe cies of tiger in India Is called the man eater because it hunts human being; for" Ttg Trey, preferring tbem to anl mals. The man eating shark Is not the largest of this species of fish, but Is noted for Its strength, also the rapid Ity , with which It swims. It goes through the water so rapidly that few fish exceed it in swiftness, and It is thus able to catch food of that kind This is especially true In the watet- snch as the Indian and south Atlantic oceans, the Pacific ocean and the wa ten tributary to tbem that are deep enough for the shark to swim In.
