•THE CHILDRENS ELEPHANT, THE GREATEST OF ELEPHANTS, HAS COME BACK! (see pace 195.) ST. NICHOLAS. Vol. XXVII. JANUARY, 1900. No. 3. THE LITTLE BOY AND THE ELEPHANT. Mama! —mama! cried a little boy. But she could not hear him, nor could he see her; but what he did see, and it frightened him very much, was a big crocodile. The little boy hardly had time to be in real danger before he saw a large elephant come from the bushes. Coiling its trunk around the tail ofthe crocodile, the elephant flung him into theair. The little boy — Prince Nooro was his name — forgot his fright, and jumped up and down, laughing and clapping his hands to see the reptile go up, turn over and over, and come down splash! into the water. It was on the bank of a beautiful river, and they stood looking at each other, little Nooro and the noble elephant that had saved his life. The elephant gently wound its trunk around the body of the little boy, and, taking him up, went away through the thicket into the deep jungle. Nooro
