OCR Text	Show Asiatic Elephants Differ From African Animals Carveth Wells says if an elephant ele-phant has five toes in front and four behind, it comes from Asia; if four in front and three behind, it hails from Africa. An elephant from Asia has one tip on the end of his trunk; an African, two. If its trunk is smooth it is Asiatic; if apparently in segments, it is African. The ears of an Asiatic elephant are about two feet long and rather ragged; an African's are about the size of a piano.
