In an effort to locate a diamond ring valued at $450, which an
elephant had swallowed while being fed peanuts, three expert
X-ray operators and four elephant-trainers worked a whole day
photographing by the X-ray process the entire interior of the
elephant. In making the pictures, the largest X-ray machine ever
made was used.
There were made eighteen plates in all to get a complete diagram
of the elephant’s interior. The ring was found in the beast’s
stomach.--_The Electrician and Mechanic._
