  1. (continued from previous page)
    a strong sewing machine, scissors, a lap-board a smoothing iron and a thimble. There is a story told about a tailor, who wanted to play tricks on an elephant by stabbing him with a needle, as he passed by his window every day.
    The elephant wanted to have revenge, so one day he brought his trunk full of water and dashed it on the tailor, and nearly drowned him.
