First Sentence: Everybody feels interested in elephants; it always was so and will be until a bigger beast turns up in some as yet undiscovered land. (Happy Days edition)
Last Sentence: No doubt in time the elephant will become an extinct animal, like the American bison, which we chose to call the buffalo, for it seems to be a law of nature that everything has its use and must perform it, and that which is no longer of use must be destroyed. (Happy Days edition)
