delphis is one of the few real orang-
outangs which have been brought to
this country, and in his way he is Q
wonder. Those who have seen him,
says the Inquirer, in presenting his
picture, will recognize in the cut the
peculiar attitude in which he places
himself when showing off for the bene-
fit of visitors and when he swings his
body sideways before the front Of his
cage.
The orang-outang, or manlike ape,
has q close resemblance to that OF Q
man in the general form of the bones,
muscles, nerves and brain. They are
the third in size Of the anthIopoid
species of apes, and come from the
low. marshy forest tracts OF Borneo
and northern parts Of Sumatra.
Their muscular strength is very
great, and a powerful man would be
roughly handledin in an encounter. The
native name of orang. g.outang means
head man, or chief of the woods.

be about six to eight years old, and Is

A Census Of Towering Plants.

The number of Towering species of
plants described is, in round numbers,
about 100, But though explora-
tions seem to be continually adding
to the list, this number will probably
be employed for all time by reason Of
the different views of species now en-
tertained from those prevalent in the
past. It is now known that in all
plants there is a great tendency to
vary and while in the past these diff
fering FERNS were honored by separate
names and descriptions, the tendency
now is to make descriptions broad
enough to cover what would be num-
Der of species century ago. So while
new species are being continually
brought to light as unknown lands are
searched, the union Of older forms
under single specific appsllation
keeps down the number of accepted
species to the hundred thousand mark.
In the lower orders of vegetation,
nearly double the number of species
have been described as of Towering
plants; but many of these are coming
to be regarded as forms of one species.

Lincoln and the Peach.

A young lady sends to the Tribune
little anecdote Of Abraham Lincoln.
She says that good many years ago,
when her father was small boy, her
grandfather brought Abraham Lincoln
home one night to supper. He was
then a poor young man practicing law
in Woodford County, Illinois.
cit was cold, stormy night, and
grandma hurried around getting sup
per. To have something nice she
opened a jar of preserved peaches.
Lincoln spent long time over his
peach, and finally left it on the plate.
"Grandma noticed this, and as soon
as he and grandpa had gone into an
other room she went to look at the
dish. Then she saw that instead of q
peach she had given the visitor the lit.
tie muslin sack which contained the
peach kernels and the spice. She
fastened into the other room and be-.
gan an apology, but Mr.. Lincoln said:
|" THAT was all right, Mrs. Perry.

it was so good that I wanted to get all
the juice out Of it. ."..-Chicago Tri.
