Tho New York Sun says: Monkey skins are
going to be popular this winter as material for
mum and cloak trimmings As far as the limited
supply will permit they will displace furs In the

Monkey skins have long been popular In Paris and

for them was in those cities. Last winter con-
Segment OF 5000 skins was received IN this city,
and almost Instantly disposed OF. This winter
between 10000 and 125,0O0 will be imported.

BOtn the species OF monkeys whose coats have q
commercial value are shot by the natives along
the west coast or Africa and sold TO British
traders who carry them 10 London, whence they
