The Speech Of Animals.

Pleasing legends Of classic times give to
heroes the privilege of understanding the
speech of animals, and show that from the
earliest ages there has existed a belief in
verbal communication between the in
habitants Of the animal world. What WAS
formerly explained by miracle now is in
yestigated by science. One OF the most
curious researches is that of interpreting the
sounds uttered by animals. According to
Professor Garner. in an article in the New
Review these investigations have been ac-
cOmpanied with such success that he be-
leyes 1t possible fer men TO learn the speech
of animals, finding in the sounds which
mOnkeysmake the rudiments of human tongue.
The method of investigation was that Of
visiting all the zoos in this country and Of
studying the speech of monkeys by means of
the phonograph Some splendid phono-
graphic records were secured in Washington.
Chicago and Cincinnati. When Professor
Garner had obtained fine distinct record
from chimpanZee he placed the sounds on
photograph aud repeated them over and over
until lie became quite familiar with the
various utterances. After study in this man
ner he proceeded to talk with mOnkeys in
their own tongue. Visiting monkey he at
one time said milk in the Simian. or
monkey language. The monkey Immediately
answered with the same word, and picked up
q small pan with the evident desire Of having
il filed with milk or water by using the
word in various ways Professor Garner be-
came conv need that it meant "drink' and
probably thirst" The theory developed
from these researches is that If we compare
the tongues of civilized races with those Of
the savage tribes of Africa, which are con-
fined to a few score of words. we gain some
idea OF the growth Of the language within our
own genus" If the modern philologst will
find learning the tongues Of animals neces-
sary, it is at least comforting TO be assured
that the vocabulary is limited, and that the
few words and simple modes Of life Of animals
have resulted in a paucity Of words 10 be in
