There w a time anywhere from 50.000
to 100,000 years ago, when ireat numbers
of mammoths ranged along tha northern
border of Asia and America. At the
same time foreste
of pine abounded
in those latitudes,
and these af
forded the princi
pal nourishment of
the huge beasts.
Owing to climatic
changes, the pines
disappeared, and
this Jed, to the
extinction ot the
mammoths. The
mammoth was a
primitive form of
elephant.
Me was not, on
the average, much, if any larger than the
elephants of today, but he was provided
with a double coating of fur and hair to
enable him to fave the Arctic cold, which
he eeems to have braved for the sake
of the pines. Inside he wore a thick,
wooly jacket of a reddish-brown color,
fend outside a coat of black, bristly hair,
that hung in long, shaggy masses from
his flanks. His tusks of ivory were, upon
the whole, longer than those of existing
elephants, and more curved, like a pair
of huge fixed calipers, with which he
could grasp and swing within his easier
reach the pendulous branches of tho
pines.
The mammoth was known to some of
the earliest races of man in prehistoric
times. We are sure of this because pic
tures of mammoths, engraved on horn,
ivory and stone, have been found among
the relics of the stone age in Europe.
These pictures show that not only was
the artistic Instinct developed very early
in the history ot man, but that even In
that extremely remote time the artists
understood their business astonishingly
well, and had' an admirable technical
skill.
It was not until the discovery ot the
frosen bodies of mammoths, completely
preserved In northern Siberia, that we
were In a position to judge the aqcuracy
of the representations of those gigantic
animals that the early artists, with their
rude tools, had made, and then It was
found that they had hit off the distinc
tive peculiarities ot the mammoth so well
that their pictures could not for a mo
ment be taken for representations of or
dinary elephants.
It has generally been assumed that the
mammoth was hunted and killed by early
man. Whether he used Its flesh for food
Is a question, but he certainly found its
tucks sofnl for making implements, and
s we have seen, he sometimes engraved

"What did the doctor sayT" asked Mrs.
lawyer anxiously, and the father leaned
fprward to listen.'
"There's nothing tho matter with htm,'
reported tho nurse, with a toss of her
head, and she glared vindictively at the
boy. the was a person with wispy hair,
an upturned nose and small gray eyes
and thin lips, and the lips had a sharp
downward droop at the corners. "The
doctor says it's temper
"Temper!" Mrs. Sawyer half raided in
her seat, and her eyes flashed with In.
dignatlon, but the father laughed.
"That's a Tastier of training," he ob-j
served.
"Harry, come away from there, dear!"
called the mother.
The boy grinned engagingly, .
"Harry!" The nurse's voice. It rasped
liKe a saw file, and every one, even the
quiet little figure over near the window,
winced. "Didn't you hear your father
end mother tell you to come away from
there?" sho screamed, and the boy kicked
at her, his face turning scarlet, his lips
pouting In an ugly square, his brows low
eilng viciously. The curly haired little
girl rose out of the corner, where sh
I. ad been contentedly playing with a dis
carded typewriter ribbon, and toddling
over to the nurse, kicks J at her with all
her small might; then, her duty per
formed, she toddled back to her corner.
'.Mary," expostulated Mrs. Sawyer, In
distress, "you should not jerk the child
that way.' It only enrages him."
"He won't mind any other way, Mrs.
Sawyer," . retorted the nurse, her eyes
flashing angrily. "You never see the
children or you'd know how bad they
r!"
'Betsy!"
"Great Scott!"
The little girl looked up at her father
with a radiant smile, but as be rushed
toward her she scrambled to her feet
and ran. holding something behind her
bark. It was an ink bottle. He toojt it
from her, and she screamed with all
the strength of her lungs. The angelic

his pictures upon them. Ivory has al
ways been a favorite material for human
Industry to work upon, and it was em
ployed proportionately more In ancient
times than It Is today, partly because at
present the supply, owing to the gradual
disappearance of elephants. Is falling off.
Since the discovery that large num
bers of mammoths are embedded In the
frosen marshes of Siberia and Alaska,
the hunting of their tusks for the ivory
market has become a profitable occu
pation. Mr. Baasett IMgby, an English
man, who has recently been hunting for
frosen mammoths In Siberia, gtvos soma
new facts about them.
He refers to the curious fact that the
woolly rhinoceros "used to hunt around
with the mammoth In thorn parts of
the -world,'' and that Its remains are
sometimes found with those of Ita
hugher ' companions. The nstives of
northern Siberia, who believe that mam
moths were a kind of gigantic - moles
dwelling deep underground, and which
inevitably perished If- they - happened to
tunnel out Into the sunshine, think that
the wooly rhinoceros was a big bird, after
the style of the great roo described by
Slndbad the Sailor, and they told Mr.
Digby that the curved horn ,. ot the
rhinoceros which he found was the "toe
claw" of the mighty bird.
There has been considerable dispute
over the slse and length of the tusks of
the mammoth. Mr. Dlgby says the
longeHt he ever saw measured twelve
feet nine inches. He measured twenty
or thirty, which ran from nine feet six
Inches to ten feet six inches, and a few
from eleven to twelve feet. Tho most
remarkable thing about these tusks, per
haps. Is tholr variety and beauty of
color. A few areva pure, milky white,
but "these have come from many thou
sand years of cold storage, hacked from
a carcass only recently washed out In a
spring freshet."
, Many tusks resemble, in color, stained
mahogany, polished near the points.
"There are blends of mahogany and
white and mahogany and cream. There
are bright blue tusks, tuaks of steel blue
from soil rich In phosphate of Iron
tusks of walnut and brick red." Mr.
Dlgby even avers that sometimes combi
nations of tints are superposed until the
surface of a tusk shows the blending of
soft, fading colors representing the en
tire spectrum.
That the substance' of these tusks
should be perfectly preserved, even
though the color is often changed, does
not appear so wonderful when we find
that. In most cases, the flesh of the ani
mals is as fresh as meat from a cold
Storage vault, although their bodies have
probably lain there from a time ten times
as long ago as that when the pyramids
of Egypt were built.
