in
Ivory, wh;ch compose the trunks and
tipper incisor teeth of th elephants is
one of the moft valuable of an'mal pro
ducts. It is ush1 for knife handles
bniiard balls, p'ano keys and do ens of
other purposes. The ilcmand for it in
ancient times is believed to have been
much greater than at present. The
Kings of Home snt on ivory et.s, and
the Etruscan monarchs had throne-''
composed of that substance. The decay
of the ivorv trade began w ith the fall of
Home, and" at the b a:innin of the
seventeenth century elephant tusk
were a druar on the market A few
centuries earlier the commonest arti
cle among the wealihv families of
Italy were made out of ivory. Tho
Portuguese, about one hundred vears
ago. collected large stores of that com
modity on the t. ongo a.:d -lrpped it to
Europe, realizing large profits. The
trade in it was then resumed. In 184')
there were ek-ven large factories en
gaged in manufacturing ivory goods
in Dieppe, France. Toniav most large
cities in Christendom have at least one
such establishment, a-:d the trade is by
no means on the dTne. The import
f ivory into Great Briia n in 1815, was
825 tons; "in 183. 487 ti ns; in IS 35, 548
tons; in 1875, 6W tons, and in l.Sr
439 tons. The importation in 187o if
the largest of wh'ch there is any authen
t e record. To produce th's quantity
about 75,000 elephant are destroyed
every year. It "s estimated that no less
than 51.000 are killed every year on the
Wist coast of Africa alone. Most of the
ivcry comes from that region. About
a fourth of thr aggregate product is
obtained in Ind a. Tho finest ivory

WADING BIRDS.

From tho long neck and the lung

retty good idea of what to expect of
all wading birds, no matter how much
they may differ in size. The long toe-t
spread out very far aparf, and thus pre
vent the birds from nking In the soft
mud as they wade about In shallow
water near the banks of rivers aud

and their slender beaks tin t klv se.w
the prey, seldom missing their aim.
Herons are found in h!1 parts of the
world, and thev form one of the great
est ornaments of out Southern marshes
and streams. The r Might, however, is
not vty graceful. These birds have no
tad w ort h speak in jf of, so when tlylny
thev alwas stretch out the'r lejrs he
ll nd them to a"t as a rudder, wliiL
most o her birds tuck the'r legs snugly
away out of s ght.
Another la -go and elegant bird is the
crane, which is sometimes over four
feet in height, but otherwise not especi
ally remarkable, unless it be for lis long
m grations twice every year, and for the
perfect discipl ue which is observed on
these joumevings.
Those who have read the interesting
