sonal magnetism. His manner was
shy and prim, and bushes came often
to his cheeks. At the same time, he
had that rare dignity of unconscious
simplicity which characterize the
earnest and disintcrested scholar. He
was exceedingly sweet-tempcrcd, gen
crous, and kind, but very hard to move
from a path which after long reflection
he had decided to be the right one. He
looked at politics judiciously, and was
so little OF a party man that on several
occasions he was accused quite
wrongfully, as | hope hereafter to
proye) of gross inconsistency. The
position Of leadership, which lie won
SO early and kept SO leng, he held by
sheer force of giant intelligence. sleep
less industry, and an integrity which
no man ever doubted. But he was
above all things a nan of peace. When
in after years. as president of the
United States, he was called upon to
manage a great war. he was out Of
place, and his reputation for supreme
ability was temporarily lowered. Here
in the federal convention we are intro
duced to him Mt the noblest and most
useful moment of his life.

And glow worms in the grass,
And the crows among the pine trees

And the hare-bclls were %a-ringing

Winked at her with one eye;
She laughed to see a peacock,
With a saucy strut 90 by.
And then an ugly aop-toad
Made her run away and cry.
She tOddled home unsteady,
With dilapldated look;
One shoe was in the brambles,
The other in the brook;
Her parasoi was minus
The little wary crook.
Her hair was all a-tanglc,
There were blisters on her nose,
Her face was stained with berries,
And rumpled were her clothes,
And through her ~draggled stockings
Peeped out her pink-white toes.

She wants some milk an cookies
To break the hours fast
And Of the Jolly fun she had

THE BABY CfilMPANLEE

The most amiablc and altogether
lovely monkey baby that ever lived
among people is the baby chimpanzee.
He is a roly-poly little fello y, with "A
large head and long arms, and his face
looks like one of our babies. for il is
~light-colored and smooth. and the hair
on his head is longer than it is on most
monkeys.
For two or three weeks, too, he is rs
helpless as Il human baby, and has TO
be carried everywhere; but there be-
gins to be a difference. He tries TO get
about alone. and it is only a few weeks
before he can run around rs well as
any of his family. He goes on all fours,
stepping on the knuckles of his hands,
and never laying them out fiat on the
palm.
He grows up faster than our babies,
too. At six weeks old he begins to eat
fruit, and long before a human baby
leaves Oft his milk diet the baby cnim-
panzee eats everything his mother
does. AMI he is able to scramble about
in the trees in a way that no human
baby-however old or skillful-can
ever do. He is quite grown up anime
or ten years old.
The baby is very fond of a frolic,
like other little folks. In their native
woods in Africa groups of young Chin
panzees are seen playing together like
party of children, running after each
cther, turning somersaults, swinging,
shouting and screaming, and, above all.
drumming on a log with a stick, which
they like to do as well as any Of you
boys like to play on II regular drum.
When they are hungry they eat fruit or
plants.
But it is Us n captive that the little
chimpanzee is best known. AID here he
behaves c~uriously like a child. For
one thing he doesn't like to be shut up
in a cage, and he does like to sit on the
up of his nurse and be ''cuddled" like
a baby, He will put his arms around
ner neck and cry when she puts him
down. In fact he sometimes makes
II great fuss about it. creams and
throws himself upon the floor. and
kicks and rolls over. But this is not
often. Generally he is gentle and
affectionate and full Of play, laughing
when he is tickled, and giving little
grunts Of p assure, while his hazel eyes
twinkle with fun.
The most interesting thing about the
young chimpanzee is his desire TO do
us people do. He greatly likes TO get hold
of clothes to wear. He easily learns to
eat with Il spoon and fork. to drink
with a cup and saucer, and to enjoy our
food, even hot tea. When he grows
older he wen goes SO far As to like to
smoke, and to shake hands.
He is very cunning and full of curl
osity, rs well rs intelligence. He can
thread "A needle and lock or unlock
doors or boxes, using a key as well rs
anybody. Also. helikes TO tease. One
in the London Geological Garden had
great fun in jumping upon a cage
where lived some marmosets. These
are little creatures, you know, and
naturally they chartered and crouched
in "A corner, and were frightened half
out of their wits. This exactly pleased
Master Chimpanzee. and in a few min.

A Costly Way of Collecting Taxes.

y
The case of Dulany VS.. the State board
of indemnity and the treasurer OF Shenan.
doah county was up in the United
States Circuit Court at Richmond on Fri
day, Judges Bond and Hughes presiding.
The evidence and argument occupied
Fridays session, and the case was given
to the jury, which, after short absence,
returned a verdict for $252, the actual
damages sustained by Dulaney in the levy
and sale of his stock. The suit was for
100000 In the course of Mr.. Royal 3
argument Friday he declared that he did
not propose to say anything disagreeable
to Attorney-G General Ayers, but, said he
II do intend to attack the doctrine laid
down by You yesterday as Identical in
every respect with the doctrine of Herr
Most and the Chicago anarchists, and do
it with the most profound respect"
The practical effect Of the verdict rem
dered in the Dulaney case is that it cost
the State of Virginia 1882 to collect
Dulaney's tax of 1926, besides the cost of
employing counsel to assist the attorney
general.
Attorney-G General Ayers protested that
Mr.. Loyal did him an injustice. He de.
clared that his remarks of Thursday did
not Justify what Mr.. Royal had said. Mr..
Tucker assisted the Attorney General.
